Chapter 492 - Rudra's Plan

Initially when Rudra made an alliance with Lita , he expected their relations.h.i.+p to be relatively simple with him helping her to gain control over Aquahose Kingdom and in return her helping him to take control over Nineclouds kingdom.

However things changed when Lita sniffed out a sinister ploy made from the shadows from someone called ' The prophet '!

Rudra had never heard about any prophets in his past life as he never expected such an character to exist. However according to the information gathered by Lita , the prophet was a VERY dangerous man that he needed to take very seriously!

Initially when the photos were leaked on the forums. Rudra thought nothing much of it , as with him enacting a rapid expansion of the guild , he did loosen the security measures a bit , while he concealed sensitive information from the ma.s.ses.

Hence he knew that there were one or two moles within the ranks however he did not have the energy to deal with them , unless they did something stupid like this.

When the spy was caught , Rudra half expected it to be from one of the super guilds , who wanted to keep close eyes on what the Elites were doing , however that was not the case , as the spy was shockingly linked with 'Rural Warriors ' guild , a first rate guild controllinh the capital city of Nineclouds .

However that was the end of Rudra's suspicions , if it was him he would have left the matter be at that , as he had no means to threaten or question the Rural Warriors guild leader . However Lita was not the same.

As her mafia members went to the house where the leader of Rural Warriors lived in Spain , and took his entire family hostage as they interrogated him for information.

Naturally under such intense circ.u.mstances the guild leader sang out all the things he knew , including the name of his boss who he called ' The prophet '.

Under ordinary circ.u.mstances this would have been the end , however the Russian intelligence was extremely thorough , as they found out that under the orders of the prophet , the Rural Warriors guild had bought about 20,000 shares of the True Elites guild , a piece of information that they noted down.

From then , every guild having more than 15,000 shares of the Elites were secretly interrogated by the Russian mafia as more and more people who were under ' The prophet ' were found out!

The total holding from everyone combined was a total of 2.6 Trillion dollars a monumental sum . It was clear that the prophet was targetting the Elites and it was a long time thing.

From then , one after extensive research , a lot of activities made by the prophet was uncovered as Rudra was absolutely flabbergasted by the planning of this one man.

More than 6 first rate guilds and 14 second rate guilds under his command , the man was basically the defacto ruler of Nineclouds kingdom , having management rights to every big town and city .

Rudra could not understand as to why the prophet guy was targetting the Elites or what exactly his plan was , however when he discovered that the ' Rural Warriors ' guild had the posession of the item [ Tortoise Jade Amulet ] , he became sure that the enemy was not a simple guy , and mostly had a pile of hidden cards that were not supposed to be introduced in the game yet.

The [ Tortoise Jade Amulet ] was a semi legendary item which was only discovered much later in the game to be sold in a remote shop in the distant lizardman kingdom.

The item had a bizzare price of 50 golden carp fishes , which could only be caught once a year when the carps crossed a narrow valley upstream to lay their eggs.

Not only was stumbling on this shop by accident possible , and neither was the fact that the quest had already been completed. It could only be completed by someone who had knowledge of this priorhand and had caught the fishes before approaching the shop.

This would mean that the prophet was someone even more terrifying than Rudra had initially imagined him to be , either a reincarnator just like himself , or someone with extensive knowledge of the game obtained through a source that Rudra was unaware of.

While initially the possibility of another reincarnator being there in the world shocked Rudra to his bones as he felt fear of the unknown . Had he not met Ethan Grey and known that there can be multiple reincarnators in a world he would probably be ignorant of this possibility , but because he knew that Ethan was one too , he knew that maybe soo was this guy.

But the panick in his heart gradually changed to greed as he saw an opportunity unlike any other . The opportunity to take over everything this guy had built overtime and toppling him from the shadows .

Hence the mastermind inside him started to go to work , planning , scheming , plotting the prophets downfall , as he went into the mastermind mode of the ultimate schemer Shakuni !

If his fight was against a reincarnator then the same knowledge that the reincarnator soo convetted and used as his ultimate a.r.s.enal , could backfire on himself when things beyond his knowledge started to happen .

Rudra had experienced this first hand when he was battling with edge , as he was often vulenrable to events that he had not planned to tackle . Only with time did he learn to lead in the moment and become a true leader , above a reincarnator , it was one of his skills that other reincarnators may not have!

Hence Rudra made a seemingly bizzare move of starting to build troops within the capital city of Nineclouds kingdom , drawing the world's attention to his deeds as he publically announced his plans on the forums antagonizing the entire playerbase of a nation and it worked!

( Meanwhile Dronacharya)

Dronacharya looked like all blood had left his body as he became as pale as a log when the news of every single guild leader under him being interrogated by the Russian mafia reached him.

Dronacharya was a cautious man never using his gaming name and keeping the alias of the prophet he used a single middleman as his point of contact between him and all the guilds as he never dealt with them personally.

This middleman was the butler of his old household , whom he registered in Omega with the ID name TheProphet.

However it was a level 1 alt only used for direct messaging within the game , a dummy that dronacharya had kept as a safety.

It was a smart move as that dummy was the only buffer between him and the Russian mafia at the moment as except that , years of his planning had became exposed. Yet wanting to take no chances at all , dronacharya ran from his 1Bhk apartment into the preprepared off-grid bunker.

Even then panick never left his body as he kept thinking stuff about how this was never supposed to happen and where he went wrong. At his core , dronacharya was a spineless weasel , as being smart and ambitious was his only redeeming quality but when push came to shove he did not have the spine to follow through!

He went full damage control mode as he closely monitored every single activity of the elites as he started making countermeasures a.s.suming the worst case scenario of every single guild under him to turn on him and sell him out and working his way from there.

He made many a.s.sumptions of what Rudra should to to make use of this situation , yet when Rudra did the exact opposite of what he thought he would do , dronacharya was genuinely surprised.

The best way to deal with the situation was to use the turncoat guilds and cause a internal strife and hostile takeover as the threat of life was greater than the blackmail material that dronacharya had over them . Yet when the Elites threatened to takeover Nineclouds kingdom , hereby angering an entire nation and every single guild within it , with every single guild member having their interests aligned it was a different situation than the upper management selling out.

Here it was a Gaurantee that every guild would co-operate against the common enemy as a 90% debuff and homelessness was something that noone wanted at all!

n.o.body could understand the actions of guild leader Shakuni as he behaved like a erratic madman. However only Lita knew that the monster had a method to his madness and a grander picture that would turn an entire kingdom upside down upon execution!
