Artemis had noticed the man in the window and had seen him go down. He sent Oblivion in to act like a shopper and Oblivion was doing very well, knowing that Wolf was with him, guarding him.
Artemis walked around the back of the store with the rest of the group and knocked out the guard and tied him up. He then messaged Wolf to tell him that he had a present for him. He then walked into the basement of the shop and took his dual blades out and waited.
It took only five minutes but then a group of 40 attacked them, but as that happened, Artemis noted something odd, this was an outpost rather than a headquarters, and a rather small one at that. "That bastard!" Artemis swore, "he lied to us."
Artemis charged the group and crossed his swords. He ran up to two guys and uncrossed them and slashed them on the chest, then kicked them back and stabbed each of them through the chest. He then moved towards a group of five and swung at all of their legs, leaving them to fall on the ground, to which Artemis then killed each of them one by one, while they were on the ground.
Leafa stabbed two guys in the back that were walking behind Artemis. She then switched to two guys and kicked their legs, putting them to the ground and then slicing at them until she knew they were dead.
Sinon walked up to one, then slit his throat, as the guy almost stabbed Leafa in the back by him.
"If I hadn't had noticed that guy almost killing you, you'd be dead, or almost dead." Sinon said.
"Yeah I realized that. Thank you." Leafa said, getting back to the fight.
Artemis continued and killed the rest of the guys, using 'Black Flame Fury'.
Artemis and the others then walked upstairs. He saw Wolf with the guard, tied up. "I swear, If we don't find their damn headquarters." Artemis said.
"Well, If this guy knows, he's gonna spit it out. Right?" Wolf said, as the guard was squirming around.
Oblivion then walked into the store, with the owner of the store all tied up and said "Well, maybe this guy knows, either way, if they don't know, they'll tell us where another outpost is, that way we can take guys from there and spill their beans."
Lisbeth walked in shortly after and said "You aren't torturing people, are you?"
"Of course not! Wolf is in charge of that. I wouldn't mind beating the living shit out of the liar that brought us here..." Oblivion said, angrily.
"Jeez, really?" Lisbeth asked.
"Well, you would feel that way wouldn't you? If you were lied to like that, in any kind of situation I mean, not just the situation between Wolf and the other guy." Oblivion said.
"I don't exactly beat the living shit out of people, but I'd get really pissed if it happened to me." Lisbeth said, slightly worried.
"Well, I will for you. I don't feel that it's fair that people just lie to you like that and not get some kind of payback." Oblivion said.
"Oh you. You'd do that for anyone." Lisbeth said.
"No, only for my friends." Oblivion said, "Anyways, let's head back to headquarters. We're wasting our time." Oblivion said, getting his teleport crystal out.
SWC Headquarters | Torture room
Wolf walked in with the two guys from the store, walking in, noticing that the other one he tortured was sleeping. Wolf, pushing the two guys in, locking the door behind them said, "Get in there, assholes."
"W-What? No-no-no-no, please! No!" The sleeping LC member said as he woke up.
"Lying bitch, there goes both your hands! You're not allowed to have them anymore!" Wolf said, grabbing the axe mounted on the wall, chopping the guys hands off.
"Tell me where your headquarters are, or else you're head will be on that wall." Wolf threatened.
"I don't know why you haven't just killed me yet! I don't know!" The LC member said.
"Good! I don't like you anyways!" Wolf said, throwing the guy in the side room and locking it.
"Please! No! I don't know where it is!" The store owner said.
"No, you just tell me where it is, or I'll open you're belly and start playing with your intestines." Wolf said.
"What!? No! Don't!" The store owner yelled.
"When I start hurting you, you are gonna wish that you were dead. So tell me where the headquarters of Laughing Coffin are before I start chopping off you're fingers and eat them." Wolf said.
"I'm not in Laughing Coffin, I wouldn't know shit about where their base is!" The store owner said.
"Liar!" Wolf said, taking off the store owner's gloves, revealing a Laughing Coffin tattoo.
"What!? How'd you know!?" The store owner said.
"Because you suck at lying you dumb shit. Where are your headquarters!?" Wolf yelled.
"I don't know! I'm a lower up on the guild!" The store owner said.
"Really? Because I have a guy here who I saw peeking into the window of our headquarters. They know exactly who you are and I kept him in here for quite a long time. He is desperate to leave and I promised him he can go if he tells me who you are." Wolf said, insanely.
The man walked in and said, "His name is Maverick, he is one of Laughing Coffin's front guards in their headquarters. He's been there multiple times." The man said, emotionless.
"You dick! I'll-" The store owner said, Wolf interrupting.
"Shut it! What floor and where! You're fucked at this point, so don't lie or I will come back and you will be my little action figure." Wolf said.
"Oh god. It's in the floor 12 dungeon." The store owner said.
Wolf thought about it for a moment. He did know that there were a lot of Laughing Coffin attacks in that dungeon. As he killed the man that gave Wolf the info about the store owner he said, "I will be back, and If that info you gave me was false, you will regret."
Later...
Wolf walked up to the kitchen, seeing as Oblivion was cooking lunch on his own today without Asuna.
"Where is Asuna?" Wolf asked.
"Oh, she is taking a break. Did you not hear what happened to them?" Oblivion asked.
"No, I forgot. I think it had to do with Kirito almost dying or some shit." Wolf said.
"Yeah, that's pretty much what happened. Anyways, I mastered my cooking skill, finally. Here, try this." Oblivion said, handing Wolf a sandwich.
"Oh, It looks and smells good." Wolf said, as he started to eat the sandwich. Wolf noticed it tasted like the one Asuna made. "Wow, it's amazing." Wolf said.
"Well, thanks. You can pretty much become a five star chef in SAO just by mastering a skill, and then just learning recipes one by one." Oblivion said.
"How does that work exactly? You actually made this?" Wolf asked.
"Well somewhat, I learned a recipe to make that sandwich. I can just pull up the instructions to make the sandwich. It takes effort to actually remember a recipe off the back of you're head. I memorized only a few recipies. If there is anything I don't remember the recipe to, I just pull up the instructions." Oblivion said.
"Oh. Well how long does it take to master the skill?" Wolf asked.
"It's a pain in the ass, it's too long to master." Oblivion said, as Artemis, Leafa, and Lisbeth walked into the dining room. "Okay well, you want lunch, head into the dining room."
Wolf and Oblivion walked into the room, both dished out the food.
"So? Where is it?" Artemis asked.
"He said the dungeon on floor 12." Wolf said. "Let's just expect this to be an outpost though. We got our hopes too high last time."
"I think that's fair. However, if this is a whole dungeon we're talking about, we can at least expect a headquarters." Oblivion said.
"I don't think it matters, eventually we'll find those damn headquarters."'Artemis said.
"Now, hold up. You said we allied with the Knights of the Blood Oath. We might need their help in order to wipe their headquarters out. First of all, I think that if we take a peek in there, we might have a chance of guessing whether it's an outpost or their headquarters. Oblivion said.
"That's not a bad idea." Wolf said.
"That's pretty much what the plan was anyways." Artemis said.
"Well, what are we waiting for!? Let's get to floor 12 now!" Oblivion said.
"Well, I wanted to have some kind of backup plan. We can just go anyways with the Knights of the Blood Oath anyways, even if it's not a headquarters." Artemis said.
"How about we go with the plan that we peek at the dungeon first?" Leafa suggested.
"Yeah, then at least if we do that then we don't bring another guild with us and have a false alarm." Lisbeth said.
"Hmmm. Okay, you know what, we will take a peek first. If it turns out that it isn't the headquarters then Wolf, you bring some more torture subjects." Artemis said.
Floor 12 Before the Dungeon
The group, before they went, picked Nero up. Artemis noticed there was six Laughing Coffin guards inside. He wanted to disguise himself as one, and he wanted the other ones to get into disguises by knocking them out, and then take their uniforms.
"Okay, the only way we are gonna find out that this is an outpost, or their headquarters is if we knock those guards out and then disguise as them." Artemis said. "Leafa and Lisbeth, you take this."
"What is it?" Lisbeth asked as she took the item.
"It gives you live audio feedback from this item I have equipped." Artemis explained.
"What!? There's an item for that!?" Lisbeth asked.
"Yeah. I was surprised at first." Artemis said, as the group snuck into the dungeon.
While they snuck, they stopped for a minute to test the item. "Can you guys hear me?" Artemis whispered into his item, which meant that they could talk to each other with the item. The group of four felt like they were doing some kind of heist, similar to a GTA heist.
"Yes, we can hear you. Did you guys get in there yet?" Lisbeth asked.
"Not quite. We are about to get our disguises." Artemis said.
The group slowly snuck through the door. The guards, being very terrible guards, were socializing, which gave them a chance to knock them out.
"You guys got your disguises?" Artemis asked.
"Yup. I got mine. The other two here got theirs too." Oblivion said.
The group acted like they were guards, until another group of LC guards came in to take their place.
"There should be six guys." One of the guards said.
"They ran off. They saw some guys from another guild try and come in." Wolf said.
"Whatever. We'll see them when they get back. Hurry up, the leader needs you upstairs." The guard said, as the group went on ahead.
"Oh shit… He wasn't lying this time guys. This is Laughing Coffin's headquarters." Oblivion said.
"Yeah, no shit." Nero said.
"Guys, teleport right now." Artemis said, to the group, and the other group outside.
"Will do." Lisbeth said, as the others were teleporting.
SWC Headquarters
Artemis messaged Heathcliff that they found Laughing Coffin's headquarters. Kirito and Asuna came back from their break.
"Welcome everyone. We have been planning a raid like this for months now, and it is finally time that we take out Laughing Coffin." Artemis said.
"Everyone has received instructions to follow in your messages." Heathcliff said. "Everyone is expected to follow those instructions carefully. We only have one shot at this."
LC Headquarters
Both the SWC and KOTBO guilds were right outside the LC headquarters. There would be four higher up teams. Artemis and Leafa were teamed up. Wolf was in a team with Sinon and Nero. Kirito and Asuna were teamed up. Oblivion and Lisbeth were in a team together. All together in total, there was SWC, who had 100 recruits. KOTBO, who had 210 recruits. The LC headquarters were expected to have 250 men in there. LC was outnumbered…
