Chapter 57 - War Preparations , Laying Low.  

"what's wrong with my sword ? " Rudra asked , although Excalibur was a replica , it was an excellent sword with amazing abilities .

Patricia said " that sword is cute , but it cant even compare to one of the worst ones in this mansions warehouse ".

Rudra was dumbfounded .... Excalibur was a Dark gold level sword..... Just what was in the mansion warehouse?.

" However you are too weak to wield any one of them , and you havent contributed enough to gain a sword , in the future when you do though .... Ill reward you with a real beauty". Patricia smiled.

" Still , lets try make the trash you use more usable shall we .... " Saying so she took Rudra's sword and started enhancing it fitting with enhancement stones.

Those were not normal stones , the process of enhancing weapons was always a tricky one , a maximum of +15 enhancement was possible. For every enhancement there was a 40% chance of success 60% chance of failure, for a +5 enhanced sword to fail enhancement once it would be back to 0 soo theoritically enhancing to +15 was usually a pipedream , a +7 or +8 enhanced weapon would be highly valued.

Yet Patricia took out a +10 enhancement stone , the value of this stone alone was around 100 platinum coins , and she casually used it to imbue in Rudra's Excalibur . What madness . Then she imbued it with a high purity fire stone . Adding flame damage to everyone facing a cut from the sword .

Although it was a dark gold weapon , when Patricia was finished casually doodling it became better than a epic one in function.

[Excalibur] ( Replica ) ( Dark gold ) (+10 enhanced) : Replica forged by a master blacksmith of the legendary sword Excalibur

Special effect 1 : change the shape and mass of the sword at will

Status : mint condition , no repairs needed.

Rudra's attack power gained another boost. Not that he needed it , however the beast became stronger again!

After chatting with Patricia for a while , Rudra decided to go back to the guild to take care of other matters, hence he took his leave.

" Mr Ambani has given us a considerable investment this time .... The 120 lv 27 experts provided by them have top notch skills and can easily overpower 5 normal lv 25 players ..... With them as our front line assaulters the 50 men of True Elites will fall ! ".?The secretary said to Donald

" That damn Shakuni and that bastard Ethan Grey behind him are both annoying , when i crush the True Elites badly , let me see then how the Grey international ' s?stocks tumble under Mr Ambani's pressure".?Donald said fuming

" Indeed sire, Mr Ambani has played a masterstroke this time .... The only thing now that can save the True Elites is if the Grey corporation's main guild lends a helping hand .... But as a trillionare can stop another trillionare we have assurance that the 'Reliance warriors'?Mr Ambani 's super guild?will come to our aid".

" Yes , although i beleive the True Elites have one or two trump cards we are unaware of, however there is absolutely no chance that they can win this war without external assistance ".?Donald said sure of his victory now

" Just you wait , Shakuni , i will return the humiliation a thousandfold to you soon".?He said resolutely.

( Meanwhile at the Nakatomi towers)

PinkLotus was with her father Mr Nakatomi discussing about Rudra's predicament.

" Dad , we need to help Rudra , his chances of victory look slim ". Yua pleaded .

" We cant , that boy is a fool to initiate a war he cant win .... The company is heavily invested in the game , if we join the frey and loose it will be a very negetive image for us, and even if we win there is not much to gain with their internal feud ..... Inshort its simply not worth it". Mr Nakatomi said coldly.

"But he's my friend! I want to help him dad ". Yua protested

" Exactly Yua , he is your friend , not your fiancè , there will be no help without tangible gains , this matter ends here ". Mr nakatomi cut her off.

Yua was extremely frustrated , she wanted to help Rudra but her dad just wont agree, she was ready to mobilize a sizable force to aid Rudra .

Not just her. Many solo players and smaller guilds had contacted True Elites to lend assistance , however Amelia shunned everyone down , True elites were now called madmen and arrogant , everyone was waiting for their ego to shrink down to size .... Absolutely noone beleived they could win this war.

---------------

( At the true elites guild hall , inner city )

Rudra was back and had requested the status of everyone's tier promotion progress.... Out of the 53 members , 47 had successfully tier promoted 32 of them being A grade and 13 being B grade with only Karna and Neatwit coming out with S grade assessments . However Rudra was happy with the turnout , and the other 6 were currently level 30 and attempting the tier promotion .

Many of the guild members had submitted a query as to what subclass to choose , but true elites gave a freedom of choice to every player to choose their own path . Noone was forced to choose any specific subclass and hence everyone was visibly happy .

Although tensions were high in the guild with the shadow of war looming over the guild , however noone was discontent with the guild. Everyone wanted to try their best to contribute .... Little by little Rudra was feeling the sense of belonging to the guild from the members ..... It was true that only through hardships are relations forged solid!

Rudra settled some guild affairs and then headed to the forging hall .... It was time to enter seclusion with fatty Kalash and make some damn bombs!

/// Author's thoughts : we had a killer week for powerstones last week , with 590 stones in the end .... Aiming for 650 this week , with bonus chapters every 200 stones.
