Chapter 445: As Long As You Nod

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Aside from Dinosaucerer who was grinding for Honor Points on the Mythical Battlefield, Slayer’s Heart’s small party of ten were all there. Black Rock and Apocalypse who Qin Ruo suggested to go to the Aricus Ruins with, along with Judge, Fateless, Subjugator, Snowleaf were all seated at Violet Orchid and Slayer’s Heart’s table.

Qin Ruo could not believe his eyes and hesitated for a bit, till he saw Violet Orchid’s table had an extra seat and proceeded to sit there under the watchful eyes of everyone there.

He sat between Brother Da and Xiaoxiao. Qin Ruo silently looked around the area underneath his cloak and asked Slayer’s Heart in a lowered voice, “What are you guys discussing about? An initiation or a rebellion?” The entire floor was seated with more than two hundred players, every one of them had quality equipment. There was not even a Violet equipment to be seen. Based on this elite line-up, starting an initiation was not a big deal.

Surprisingly, the usually valiant Slayer’s Heart only flashed him a mysterious smile, held up his glass of wine and chose not to answer.

Just as Qin Ruo started to feel disheartened, Homme Fatale who was at the same table suddenly gave him a full glass of wine. “...This toast is for you.”

“Eh?” Qin Ruo took the glass of wine in surprise, his eyes filled with confusion.

Homme Fatale gave him a rare smile. “Tiger Cub. Killed him well.” These simple five words had fully expressed his reason for this glass, it had also caused many of the people in the restaurant to raise their glasses...

“Cheers!”

Steel Dude’s loud voice never weakened in front of Homme Fatale. Once he heard Homme Fatale bringing up this topic, he did not miss a chance to raise his own glass to toast to his heart’s content. Under the two guys’ lead, everyone on the top floor of the restaurant raised their glasses at the same time. Violet Orchid and Slayer’s Heart also downed this glass of wine.

Qin Ruo meekly held his wine glass, finally regaining his composure. Although he did not expect the news of him killing Tiger Cub to spread so quickly to the Angel Faction, he still followed suit and solemnly toasted his glass and gulped down his wine in front of the crowd.

As he placed down his glass, Qin Ruo’s doubts in his heart got stronger...

This lineup, should not have happened so suddenly just because he killed Tiger Cub.

“Just what is going on?”

Qin Ruo was dying of curiosity. After putting down the wine, he impatiently voice messaged Xiaoxiao who was right next to him. Since Slayer’s Heart and the rest kept mum, Xiaoxiao would not keep it from him.

As if knowing that Qin Ruo would ask Xiaoxiao, Violet Orchid opened her mouth in advance. “Don’t make things difficult for Xiaoxiao, I’ll tell you... We have just established the Bauhinia combat team. Turns out that these Bauhinia Clan’s members came over to join us... So we might as well just make plans with everyone to delegate a few missions for everyone to carry out after today.”

Qin Ruo calmly sat in his seat. He showed an apparent bizarre expression under his cloak. He took a look at Violet Orchid, then looked at Homme Fatale and Steel Dude who were both merrily drinking with different dispositions...

Phew.

Although Violet Orchid’s words were clear and understandable, Qin Ruo just felt very uneasy and that something was not right.

Usually...

Since Bauhinia’s combat team was set up, their future advancement plan should be headed by Scarlet Bauhinia; if it were someone else, it should be the Vice Clan Leader, a Field Commander...

Why did it seem like Violet Orchid was the one hosting this big plan here?

Although Steel Dude and Homme Fatale were Field Commanders, one of them was very quiet and the other was too vulgar. They were not leadership material who could arrange these things...

Also, if Bauhinia Clan wanted to be rebuilt, obtaining 1,000 Honor Points was not an easy task. If those at a Field Commander level just simply took a stroll outside for half a day, it would surely all be okay!

Even if they wanted to discuss new big developments, would it not be better to gather the original members of the Clan, and wait for the Clan to be set up first then carry out the plan?

Was it necessary to pick this place?

What on earth was Scarlet Bauhinia up to?

Violet Orchid’s few sentences made Qin Ruo overthink till steam was coming out of his head...

In the midst of the confusion, Violet Orchid paused for a moment. Her pair of pretty eyes swept over the crowd of elite players in the restaurant, then landed on Judge and the rest who were sharing the same table. She turned to Qin Ruo and said, “Just now I thought of asking a few of your friends to join us at Bauhinia... They all rejected.”

“...”

Qin Ruo was baffled. He took a look at Judge, Black Rock, Fateless, Subjugator, and Snowleaf who were sitting around him. They all had different reactions.

Judge put down his helmet. He wore a solemn, simple expression and was very calm. Fateless minded his own business and continued drinking, his eyelids did not lift a bit.

Black Rock and Subjugator had their arms folded, looked at Qin Ruo firmly yet calmly, then they shrugged and looked away.

Snowleaf gave Qin Ruo a look, then gazed out of the window.

Qin Ruo turned his gaze back to Violet Orchid. He was not surprised with their rejection toward Violet Orchid’s invitation. After all, these few guys were prideful people. They did not spend much time with Violet Orchid either. A simple invitation was obviously impossible for them to join.

However, Qin Ruo could quickly tell that Violet Orchid had more to say.

As expected!

After seeing Qin Ruo look back at her, Violet Orchid finally released a heavy bomb...

“Little Ruo, I want to invite you to join Bauhinia...”

“Since it’s Sister Orchid’s invitation, of course I wouldn’t turn you away.” Although Qin Ruo felt a little weird that Sister Orchid had invited him to join Bauhinia in a crowded situation like this, he still accepted without hesitation.

Not to mention, his current achievements would not have been without Violet Orchid, Slayer’s Heart... Just looking at the favor he owed Sister Orchid that time at Killer Bee Valley, Qin Ruo would definitely not disrespect Violet Orchid.

Moreover, he himself did not have any unpleasant feelings toward Bauhinia. In fact, Bauhinia had been quite hospitable toward him...

Perhaps it was because the changes in Angel Faction had given Violet Orchid a new set of perspectives... However, all these did not matter. What mattered was, he also could not wait to teach the Demon Faction guys a lesson.

At this moment!

Violet Orchid blinked her eyes and continued, “Hold on, let me finish what I wanted to say.”

With a short pause, she conveniently spat out a sentence while Qin Ruo was ignorantly gazing at her—the second heavy bomb!

“I’m saying that I’m thinking of getting you, Little Ruo to join Bauhinia, but not to join the Bauhinia Party, not Bauhinia Clan either...”

“Ah?”

Qin Ruo froze. There was a knot in his heart. ‘Don’t tell me...’

“It’s Bauhinia League!”

“League?” Qin Ruo exclaimed.

At that moment, Slayer’s Heart timely cut in. “Bauhinia no longer belongs to Scarlet Bauhinia. The current Bauhinia no longer has anything to do with Scarlet Bauhinia.”

“What?”

Qin Ruo received another shock! ‘Bauhinia has no connection to Scarlet Bauhinia?’

As his eyes wandered all over the place, Xiaoxiao quietly explained to him, “When Scarlet Bauhinia was registering for a party, he used the name Scarlet Dynasty.”

‘Woah!’

Qin Ruo was utterly shocked.

‘Scarlet Bauhinia actually did not intend to continue leading Bauhinia Clan? He used another name as a Clan name?

‘In this case, Violet Orchid and Slayer’s Heart they... No longer intend to follow Scarlet Bauhinia?’

“Why did it turn out this way?” Qin Ruo’s mind was blown—Violet Orchid, Slayer’s Heart, Homme Fatale, and Scarlet Bauhinia had separated. So many people even “rebelled” out. Just why did this happen? From the looks of it, Scarlet Bauhinia had quite a good character. At least he was more powerful compared to many other Clans out there. He was not excessively arrogant either.

Slayer’s Heart knew that from Qin Ruo’s nature, if things were not explained clearly, there would still be some knots remaining in his heart. Thus, he decided to explain more straightforwardly, “Actually, the name Bauhinia was thought of by four of us, myself, Scarlet Bauhinia, Violet Orchid, and Homme. Back then the four of us made a promise, to make the name ‘Bauhinia’ become the banner for Angel Faction! The strongest Clan and League!”

As Slayer’s Heart spoke till this point, Homme Fatale’s cool and cold voice cut in, “To become Angel Faction’s, it was achieved by Scarlet Bauhinia... But now... he has chosen to abandon this name. ‘Scarlet Dynasty’ was thought out by himself. He never consulted anyone’s opinions.”

After hearing this, Qin Ruo suddenly could empathize with Violet Orchid, Slayer’s Heart and Homme Fatale. The “Bauhinia” from back then belonged to them four. Right now, they were not betraying Scarlet Bauhinia. It was Scarlet Bauhinia himself who had unknowingly isolated himself out of this four-person circle.

He silently nodded. Qin Ruo glanced around the restaurant to look at Bauhinia Clan’s original members. Their moods were extremely heavy...

Violet Orchid and the rest’s private matters were not something he had any rights to intervene in. But for Bauhinia to dissolve at a time like this, was really not what he was willing to see.

Violet Orchid’s voice transmitted into his ears. Her voice carried a sort of feminine vibe as she spoke to Qin Ruo, “We all do not wish for the name ‘Bauhinia’ to be forgotten, or to be trashed by others... After discussing with everyone, we decided that I’ll rebuild the Bauhinia Party...”

After hearing this, Qin Ruo raised up his head!

Sister Orchid? Bauhinia’s founder? It was Violet Orchid??

Violet Orchid’s expressions did not change. She continued to speak, “Since Bauhinia has been established, we must do our very best. That’s why I hope that everyone could help us out, to come up with a development plan and have Bauhinia regain its strongest position in the Angel Faction. Qin Ruo... I hope that you can establish a Clan!”

“Ah?”

After consecutive surprising news, this one was the most shocking to Qin Ruo! Violet Orchid actually invited him to join through a method like this. She actually wanted him to establish a Clan... For the future Bauhinia League?

‘Good grief...

‘This warmonger has really thought far ahead.’

Qin Ruo laughed bitterly. “Sister Orchid, letting me join your Clan works too. Asking me to form a clan, how is that possible for me...”

Before he could finish, Homme Fatale who was nearby looked over and calmly persuaded, “Oh, stop being so humble already. Your abilities are already very close to a Tier 5 Veteran Champion’s. Or, you can say that within a short period of time, you have all the qualities you need as a Veteran Champion... Besides, your battle tactics and adaptability are quite remarkable. The only thing missing is your leadership qualities and your experience in seeing the big picture and leading a Clan. But you have the stronger advantage, since typical Tier 5 players do not have your charisma... As long as your leadership skills are honed, your Clan that you’ll establish won’t be inferior to any one of the directly affiliated Clans...”

“Coincidentally!” As he said this, Homme Fatale stopped for a while then pointed at Xiaoxiao who was sitting next to Qin Ruo. “I see that your girlfriend could be of help to you.”

“Also...”

Homme Fatale used his chin to point out Judge and the rest, “Tier 5 Steel Berserker, Ignis Swordmaster, Bandit, Summoner, Terramancer, along with you. Six Tier 5 Champions, two with Angelic Wings... As long as you nod your head, a Clan’s core team can already be formed...”
