Aaron took a long breath before stopping his activity. Turning around, he found Leen standing in the doorway, her arms crossed in front of her, looking at Aaron intently."I received a direct reprimand from the CEO of Martial Online Company. He said that I had let my guard down against you," Leen said in a cold tone. "In fact, you even threatened Rong En with a gun to help you with this crazy mission. What are you going to say now?""I was just doing what I thought was right, Leen.," Aaron tried to remain calm as he replied."BUT YOU JUST PUT YOUR LIFE IN DANGER!"Leen exploded like a volcano that hadn't erupted in thousands of years. She snapped at Aaron right in the young man's face, in a very loud voice."Putting my life in danger?" Aaron frowned. He was not at all affected by the yelling. "Leen, this is just a game. If I get knocked out, then I'll only lose experience and repeat the level. I won't lose my entire life just for dying in this game."Ru

"Lord, this is a good opportunity for us to hunt and collect EXP. Why don't we attack some of these monsters before we move on?""No." Aaron shook his head firmly. "Hunting monsters will take quite a bit of time, while we need to get to Grassland Haven before the sun even rises."Dariowyn only nodding head before looking away from the bear Destroyer Beast that had been his target for a long time. As much as he wanted to, Dariowyn would not be able to attack the large monster because his master had forbidden it.Just as the sun was about to rise, signaled by the sky beginning to turn purple, Aaron's party finally arrived at Grassland Haven."This... is impossible, so impossible..."Rong En was almost speechless once she saw that Grassland Haven's vast grassland area which should have been empty was now filled with large tents and a sea of people.This was not the first time Rong En had seen so many players gathered in one place, but the girl still believed that Aaron had managed to gat

Aaron, Dariowyn, and Rong En carefully led their troops around the orc army that was besieging the fortress. They decided to attack the orc army from the rear, a strategy that was quite daring but could potentially put Stonehaven City in danger, as the orc army was under great pressure to enter the city gates."I think we should make a direct attack from the front," said Dariowyn, one of the squad leaders. "We can break the enemy's concentration and damage their formations. It's also more honorable than a sneak attack from behind."Dariowyn was a knight, so it was only natural that he would make considerations based on a knight's attitude. One of them was not to sneak up on the enemy, especially if the attack was done by stabbing from behind.However, Rong En disagreed. "But that would leave us too open to enemy attacks. And if they can defend themselves, we'll be in a very vulnerable position."Knowing how important this victory was to restoring peace in their region, Aaron wanted to

After leaving the game, Aaron immediately went to Leen for advice on how to defeat Merlyn. As Leen had said earlier, Aaron shouldn't make rash decisions if he didn't want to put himself in danger, so consulting the girl before making any decisions was a very appropriate action.After listening to Aaron's problem, Leen pondered for a while and finally gave him a suggestion. "In my opinion, you should hire a group of assassins to kill Merlyn. They can do the job quickly and efficiently. And you can also ask some priests to help you repel the black mage, Rong En's magic might not be as strong as Merlyn's, so it's good to anticipate that."Aaron nodded in agreement. "That sounds like a good plan. But how can I find the right group of assassins for this task?"Leen picked up a paper and started writing down some names. "These are some of the best assassin groups around Stonehaven Town. You can try contacting them and haggle over a price."After finding out more, Aaron finally decided to

"Despite having won the victory, the city is completely ruined. Most of the buildings within the city were destroyed by the huge catapults of the orcs. On top of that, Stonehaven is also overshadowed by famine and plague." Dariowyn explained his observations.Aaron looked at Dariowyn with concern. "We cannot let the people of Stonehaven suffer," he said. "We must do something to help them."Dariowyn nodded in agreement. "I agree with you, lord. We must do something for this city."Rong En, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke. "I agree with your plan. But we have to think of the best way to deliver the aid to the needy residents."Aaron proposed the idea of donating food, clothing, and medicine from the treasures they had gained from the war. Rong En and Dariowyn immediately agreed without hesitation."Let's start preparing everything now," Dariowyn said excitedly. "We can work with the merchants in town to distribute the goods throughout the city."Rong En nodded and added
