Chapter 37 (2/2)
The kidnapped beginners only woke up theof the next day
“Whe, where?”
“What’s that even?!”
However, blood was spread out everywhere and only burnt corpses were lined up
It seeuards ere patrolling took them to their inns
However, a doubt still remained
Who kidnapped the doith a bunch of burnt up corpse
Sohoul-like monster but, besides a few, s
Great guilds and clans were secretly trying to find the culprit but there was no way they could find a person who had disappeared like a ghost
However, a few people shi+vered in fear
“The slayer… The slayer of the tower has returned…!”
Lunch, the next day
Muyoung was listening to the explanation with a bunch of people on the first floor of the inn
“We, the Paulownia Guild, are made up of a small number of about 50 elites We can proudly say that we have been around for 30 years with our own tradition Right noe have four spots available and we are seeking people ould fill in those spots If you join us, ill fully support you Oh, we are hoping to find people with stamina above 40”
Lunchtime
Out of the blue, a man showed up and started to talk
While others were paying attention to theslowly savored his soup
‘The Nine Guilds and the Five Great Clans have already finished contacting people The people who have been coroups ere short on members’
As he turned his head, he found Taehwan and Suzy blankly staring at the floor with a quite serious look on their faces
Someone had already contacted them
Even those great guilds and clans couldn’t help but covet people who had the potential to be great
As it was good to have lots of outstanding slaves
Of course, no one approached Muyoung who used the Information Distortion Talisman to hide himself
Technically, an assassin approached him but it wasn’t to recruit him but to kidnap hiuest
Actually, Muyoung could sense a ical scent on Taehwan and Suzy
‘Indicator Skill’
The people who approached them left an ‘indication’ on them
That hy the assassins avoided them
Muyoung knew that the beginners with an indication were removed from the list of people who they were to kidnap
“Us, the Paulownia Guild, knows more about the Sky Library than anyone else You should already know by now that you could earn a skill that you want from the Sky Library It is really stupid to enter the library without any information Since what you learn from there will determine your future path and your life span It is necessary for you to learn a skill that’s right for you”
Many people were interested in thein front of the entrance
There weren’t just huge groups in the Great City
There were sinners
Even if there were a lot of reasons, they were inner could learn from the Sky Library’
‘They are probably trying to get people to learn a skill that could be useful to their group or will be helpful in having them pass a trial’
There basically was no real group who had pure intentions on helping beginners and fully supporting them
Most were planning on choosing the skill beginners had to learn and use it to their benefit
The Sky Library was vast with many kinds of skills people could learn
Even if they could only choose one, it was clear that that one skill will have a great impact on their future
Of course, there were ‘kind groups’ who helped people with pure intentions and did not use theers and even if they did exist, they didn’t last and disappeared after a few years
And froht the Paulownia Guild was an outstanding bully
‘Those who are truly willing to help don’t place any requirements’
Why would they limit their recruitment to people with ‘stamina above 40’?
It was because the skill they had to learn had a specific requireht away It was obvious they were trying to use them
“In detail, how are you planning to support us?”
As the wo to them asked, the man nicely replied back
“A full set of C ranked gear and basic talis area for you to get stronger Since we have a few priest classes, they will help you get stronger faster And above all”
The man cleared his throat and continued
“There was nothing you could say is truly free Re water to drink is done by a trade I prouild, food and shelter will be freely provided”
“In this world, is there any common currency?”
The continuous questions could have irritated him but the man still answered with a smile
“Umm, easiest way is by talismans F ranked talisman can allow you to eat three roup to make food or items but because of the poor environment, it wouldn’t be easy to survive I don’t really recommend it”
The value of currency
It was possible to trade with monster hides and meat but most commonly used were talismans
And… It wasn’t like everyone fought
Crafting groups truly did exist
However, most the people who joined were scaredy cats and those with physical disabilities
The exceptions were blacksmiths ere better treated but their ice as hard Normal artisans were unfriendly towards outsiders and if they didn’t raise their rank by co their associated skill’s workmanshi+p, they were frequently cast away
The ed his shoulders
“There are only a few guilds and clans that give an incredible offer when they recruit beginners Even the huge guilds and clans, you know the, it doesn’t oodSo please properly think over it before you make your decision”
As if there were other places he could look for people, he ended his talk and clasped his hands behind his back
Everyone started to read each other’s faces
One choice
Everything will be determined by this
But, there seemed to be no lies in his words
If they were to lose this chance…
Could they get a place with better conditions?
All the people who suffered from the Blue Temple wanted a place where their safety could be assured
Everyone knew that they needed strength
“You said you will accept people with stamina above 40? I will join”
As one raised their hand, a few others joined
“Me too! Accept me too!”
“I’ 1 stamina but could you please accept me?”
The Paulownia Guild filled their four spots in an instant
Even afterwards, a few guilds and clans came by
Guilds were mostly made up of Caucasians and black people and clans were roups with a mix of different people but there was so on behind the scenes
And as the numbers in the inn decreased, the people could only become more nervous
The group of 100 people had been reduced to less than 20 within half a day
‘This tastes good’
Muyoung didn’t care and was silently savoring the taste of the liquor
He couldn’t remember the last time he drank
“Hyungnim”
As he heard a sound from his side, he turned his head
Taehwan sat beside him and with a serious face, he spoke quietly
“… An offer came from the Sun Guild What should I do?”
The Sun Guild was one of the groups who took care of this Great City
‘Alexandro Quintart’
It was a guild where the guildhumans
The Sun Guild was known to only take in less than 10 beginners every month
And a place like this carefully looked at Taehwan and offered to recruit him
Norlossed over it but a slight interest rose
“Let’s talk upstairs”
Muyoung placed down his liquor glass and stood up from his place
