"I suppose we will have to split up to increase the speed of the work," Terry said. "Against enemies of those levels, you two should be enough as long as you have the battle armor with you."

Speaking of the battle armor, Terry had already leveled up thirty of them to level ten. The guys in his guild that had those basically could fight the mechanical warriors one on one and win with ease. He was pretty proud of his hard work, he could have used that chance to level up his own armor, but now he could outsource some of the work to his guild members.

"I am not sure that is the best of ideas," Vanessa said. "Louis is moving around gathering Intel about the world as well, so things might become troublesome if we were to get hurt due to such a hurry."

Terry understood the concerns raised by the other guild masters about splitting up. After all, guild masters were considered the strongest and most skilled hunters in their respective nations, often acting as the trump cards in critical situations. Sending them out without adequate backup could pose a significant risk to the stability and safety of their territories.

While Terry believed in the power of teamwork and the effectiveness of a coordinated approach, he also knew that the enemy they faced required a different strategy. The overlords and their formidable portals demanded a focused effort, and splitting up might prove to be more efficient in taking down these powerful foes one by one.

However, he acknowledged that the decision wasn’t without its risks and challenges. Losing a guild master in battle could have severe consequences for their nation. It was a delicate balance between maximizing their chances of success and ensuring the safety of their key assets.

"The armor and my new weapon will get ready in three more days, so let’s wait until then," Terry declared. "After that, we will split up. Even if something happens, I can do something with my healing wands, and we should be able to avoid most damage if you guys carry some with you." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Vanessa and Rebecca exchanged glances, their expressions reflecting their concern. They both knew Terry well and understood his strong determination to take on formidable adversaries. While they admired his bravery and fighting spirit, they also recognized the risks associated with his impulsive nature.

They shared a silent understanding that Terry’s eagerness to face the most challenging enemies head-on could sometimes cloud his judgment, leading him to make decisions that put himself in danger. As guild masters, they felt responsible for their fellow members’ well-being and knew that keeping a watchful eye on Terry was crucial to ensure his safety.

Despite their reservations about splitting up, they recognized that the threat of the overlords demanded a decisive and strategic approach. They were well aware that facing each overlord required a concentrated effort, and that might mean temporarily parting ways to tackle different portals simultaneously.

In any case, after three days, Terry went to check with Clark about the result of his work, and he was surprised to see that his power armor had a reinforced interior with shards of black steel.

The sword made of black steel was a formidable sight to behold. Its blade glimmered with a dark, ominous sheen, exuding an aura of power and malevolence that seemed to emanate from within. The blade itself was honed to perfection, sharp enough to cut through the toughest of armor with ease.

The mesmerizing red aura that enveloped the blade truly set this sword apart. It seemed to dance and flicker like flames, giving the impression of a weapon infused with the very essence of fire itself. The crimson glow added an air of danger and mystery, hinting at the sword’s unique abilities and the immense power it held.

The handle of the sword was a work of art in itself, crafted with the shimmering scales of a dragon. The dragon scales, each one a vibrant shade of iridescent hues, were expertly layered and bound to create a comfortable and secure grip for the wielder. The touch of the scales felt both smooth and strong as if they were imbued with the ancient strength of the mythical creature they once adorned.

"We could tell that the original weapon was strong, so we didn’t reforge everything; we only took some parts that we were able to melt," Clark said. "We also made the handle to increase magic attacks since we heard that the guild master could use fire magic as well."
