Chapter 89
When the next match started, Alex decided to buy the Desert Eagle handgun, since it didn"t really matter what he bought, also this was the gun in which he was accustomed using in real life . Saya who died without doing anything in the last match had insufficient funds to buy the same machine gun so she bought an SMG instead . Oliver, and the other two bought similar equipment same as the previous match .
Alex also bought smoke grenades, and a flash grenade . After buying their things both teams started to move . Before Saya moved forward, Alex spoke to her using the in game chat system .
"Saya stay in formation with Oliver, and the others . " When Saya read Alex"s message she simply disregard it . Even Oliver insisted that Saya follow what Alex was saying . But as per usual Saya didn"t give a d.a.m.n about there opinions . She charged forward, and as if it was a repeat of the previous match another flash grenade was thrown towards Saya"s direction .
Alex already predicted that Saya would not follow his command, but he still wanted to try just in case . So when he saw Saya charged forth, he immediately threw his smoke grenade, after which he also threw a regular grenade .
The moment Saya got blinded by the flash grenade, she started to randomly shoot . Yet even with that she still died . Alex immediately typed, "Throw all your grenades into the tunnel, do it now . "
The three who read Alex"s message did as they were told, and threw the grenades into the tunnel, and as if like magic, the match was decided and they had won .
Alex"s guess proved correct, the other team knowing that aside from Niel the other members were basically complete amateurs, decided to use a formation similar to a line . They were all congested into a singular spot .
Alex knew that this tactic would only work with this one match, and the next match the Gaming Club will finally play seriously . Yet even if they do play seriously they"re bound to make a lot of mistakes .
"I"m sure Kim Suho, who seems to hate us so much, is extremely angry at the moment . Even the other members are bound to be angry at dying so shamefully like that . So their going in scattered and will try to kill us all . They wont be thinking of planting the bomb, since they"re angry and ashamed for losing like that they will try to kill us all for revenge . "
Alex who heard that even now Saya will still do her own thing, decided to ask his teammates first before using his plan .
"Do you guys want to win?" All of them typed back .
"Of course . "
"No matter what?" When the others read Alex"s message they started to hesitate a bit, based on Alex"s previous behaviour he might actually do something drastic . . . But remembering Kim Suho"s face urged them onwards .
Saya was the only one who truly knew, what Alex was capable off, but she didn"t really care, even if Alex did try to kill the opposition, she wasn"t really against the idea . Coming from an a.s.sa.s.sin family, she wasn"t a stranger to killing .
The other members of the Mercenary Club seem to have the wrong idea, about what Alex was planning, but they still responded .
"No matter what . " When Alex saw this message, he was now in the green to use his strategy . The other members who saw Alex wasn"t moving away from his computer, didn"t understand what was going on .
Didn"t Alex say he was going to do something, then why is he just sitting there? All of them thought the same thing, but couldn"t dwell much into it, since the match started .
Alex"s group bought the same equipment same as the last match, but this time, Alex didn"t give out commands . His character was standing behind everyone else, while Saya once again charged forth .
This time, she didn"t die instantly, but was finally able to deal damage to one enemy before dying . The others on the other hand kept a tight formation and moved forward together .
The group finally found one of the enemies, Alex used Kei as a human s.h.i.+eld, and was able kill one of the enemies . He did the same to Oliver as well, it was at that moment the Mercenary Club members finally understood what Alex meant, when he wrote any means necessary .
Alex has decided to discard them as teammates all their worth right now was as meat s.h.i.+elds . In the end, they won, but it wasn"t really a satisfying win . Even in the end when they noticed what was happening, the Gaming Club didn"t try to plant the bomb . It would seem like their anger against the Mercenary Club was for real .
Still it was a bit confusing cause Luvia, and s.h.i.+n didn"t hate them, why did they agree to such a game plan . While Alex was pondering about what to do in the next match, Oliver spoke to him .
"Alex can you change your strategy? If we play like this, even if we do win, it will be meaningless . " Oliver was the one who spoke for the whole club .
Alex as usual was confused, "Why? Didn"t you guys say to win by any means necessary?"
"Yes we did say that . . . But after thinking about it for awhile, we decided this is not the right way to win . It"s true we must win, but at the same time we need to maintain a bit of honor . " Alex was about to answer Oliver but then he saw there was a message on his phone . It was from Lilitth, seeing this Alex didn"t bother with the others anymore and read Lilitth"s message .
"Onii-sama! Please come to school, tou-chan is out of control! Please help!"
Reading this message Alex immediately stood up . "What the h.e.l.l is happening to dad! d.a.m.n it!" Alex blurted out loudly, shocking Oliver and the group .
"Sorry I have a family emergency!" After saying that Alex didn"t wait for a reply and immediately sprinted off .
