Marcus, who had his eyes closed and patiently waited, suddenly opened them when he heard his queen piece cracking.
The corner of his mouth rose, and he started laughing.
''Sure, even Luriel was taken down. Time to finish him myself.'' Marcus mumbled and immediately stood up.
He had expected this situation; it could be said that he hoped for this situation to happen, then he would take care of the exhausted Alex himself and earn all the credit. He succeeded in getting rid of Luriel, who was threatening his position since she was the owner of a domain.
Shaking his head, Marcus headed to Alex's location.
As if he had teleported, he arrived on the floor Alex was on; Alex had his head lowered as if unaware of the intruder closing in from behind.
Suddenly, Marcus, who was sneaking behind Alex froze, his eyes became filled with horror when he saw a black gun aimed at him from under Alex's armpit.
'So all long, he was playing!"
Fear filled Marcus's heart but was scared him the most was that black gun; he had the feeling that if it stuck him, not only would he die here, even in the real world his soul would be erased forever.
(A good man does not fight when the odds are against him. I shall temporarily retreat and strike later.)
Having convinced himself that he was doing this for the great cause, not because he was afraid, Marcus immediately crushed the life-saving item he had prepared beforehand. An intense golden light covered him, and his body started to disappear slowly.
However, how could Alex let his prey escape right when he became a coward?
Alex immediately aimed Silveria at the golden portal while at the same time downing another stamina potion.
Bang!
A silver bullet crashed against the golden light and the portal was erased; Marcus, who had his body halfway through the teleportation portal, was thrown out and vomited blood from his right elbow reaching his hand was gone, lost in space. He couldn't even scream as the shock he was feeling surpassed the pain, unbelievable my strongest life-saving item was crushed just like that?
It was as if he had received a hard blow and couldn't recuperate from it; he didn't even see when a crimson bullet blasted his body into smithereens.
A dignified vice guild master, a Level 182, died just like that without being able to put on a fight; if the other guilds learned how Marcus died, they would laugh until their bellies hurt.
Alex crouched down to pick up the fallen equipment, he was exhausted, but he knew that now wasn't the time to take a rest; he should hurry up and clean the remaining Blood Chalice Guild members and escape before the guild master came. Alex wasn't so arrogant to think that he could handle the guild master simply because he easily killed the vice guild master; the reason it was this easy was because of several factors, the element of surprise coupled with the fear induced by seeing Nyx made Marcus cower and lose his will to fight from then onward Alex used his cards and successfully killed him.
Two hours passed, and Alex had finally succeeded in clearing the remaining member of Blood Chalice.

'It's a good thing I have received an additional reward.' Alex mumbled while thinking about how he should use his 3 skill points.
〖It was to be expected you finished the quest before the time limit, and you killed the vice guild master, the strongest existence here so easily that it almost sounds like a joke.〗Silveria's voice rang in his head; Alex nodded, thinking that her explanation did make sense.
He postponed using his skill points but immediately spent his bonus points on his luck stat as he believed it was what he needed right now.
Immediately after spending his BP on his luck's stat, Alex rubbed his hands together before touching the silver box in front of him.
[Do you wish to open this chest. Y/N?]
Alex nervously clicked yes, suddenly, there was a blinding light that came from the silver box forcing Alex to close his eyes momentarily, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a plain white mask on the ground; Alex almost cursed but managed to calm down.
Picking up the white mask, Alex felt a strange connection; the mask description popped up above the mask, and Alex was shocked, unable even to utter a word.
{Item: God's Mask
Grade: Mystic (A/N: Equivalent to SS grade artifact in Mysthia's world)
A mask is said to be the face of a god. The user can switch to anyone he has a deep understanding of or simply choose a plain face. Undetectable, Immune to almost all mental attacks.
Complete transformation consumes 200 MP per minute and is usable once. (A/N: This ability mean if Alex chooses, for example, to become Gracier, he will, but it's only usable once.)
Additional ability: Can copy some of the transformed person's abilities; however, it's completely random and can't copy the core abilities.}
Alex suddenly burst into laughter; he laughed extremely hard before stopping after he had enough; saying he was not pleased with this reward would be an understatement. The arrival of this mask could not be more timely.
Alex stood up and drew something where it would be visible before putting on the God's Mask immediately; his face and even hair changed; he had a plain face which you can see anywhere while his hair became long and spiky red, his eyes were a deep shade of blue. Satisfied with the disguise, Alex left the Blood Chalice Guild.. Shortly after he left, a huge explosion occurred, shaking the whole area, the building above collapsed, and people came out panicked; Alex used this opportunity to slip away undetected.
