Randy thought Justice Knight was a good thing for Divine Empyrean. After all, these people were the best one to face the undead race. He did not mind to let them join Divine Empyrean.

However, when the night came, his private secretary who did an odd job for him came with unpleasant news. Justice Knight refused to join Divine Empyrean if it was not him who talked with them in a person. This was what Risa told to him.

At noon, after the representative of Justice Knight knew it was Risa who greeted them, they immediately departed while leaving arrogant words,

”Divine Empyrean does not have any sincerity to us, we take back our commitment to join Divine Empyrean! If you want us to join, then let Happy Guild guild leader meet us in a person!”

On the other hand, Risa felt guilty as she failed the task. She failed to retain Justice Knight and thought it was her fault.

After all, Justice Knight was one of the top guilds. If they joined Divine Empyrean by another level, it would make the foundation of Divine Empyrean became stronger and solid.

However, Randy's response surprised Risa, ”Hmm, it's a pity that they back down. It's good if they want to join, but it does not matter if they do not join as well. We have no loss even without Justice Knight!”

Randy responded it was as if he did not care about the Justice Knight.

Indeed, Justice Knight's action surprised him. He thought the people with Justice Hidden stat would be kind and unpretentious. After all, people with Justice hidden stat chosen because they were righteous, though he did now know how the system selected these people.

Moreover, it was not that he did not care about Justice Knight. Sending Risa to greet them was already good enough. It must be known that if the other guilds wanted to join, they must pass through a selection. There was a group who was responsible for this work.

Sending Risa was the same as Justice Knight accepted by Divine Empyrean without selection. Randy trusted them and the others also trusted them. However, the truth was out of their expectation.

Justice Knight did not want to join if it was not Randy received them in a person. It was if Justice Knight felt Divine Empyrean was looking down on them because it was Risa who received them.

”Maybe it's the pride as a top guild?”

”Nah, whatever, if they do not want to join, then let them be. As long as they cause no loss to us, just ignore them!”

Randy waved his hand toward Risa.

After further thought, Randy decided to ignore the Justice Knight. Why did they want him to receive them? He was not close with Justice Knight, there was no cooperation between them, and he was not the representative of Divine Empyrean.

Everything about Divine Empyrean was still in a process. Establishing a nation was not just a matter of a day or two days. There was still a long process before Divine Empyrean being established formally.

Moreover, the President had not been chosen yet. He was not the president or the official of Divine Empyrean. He also did not plan to hold this position at all, he just wanted to be a general like Limera.

Randy smiled as he imagined himself got a title like Limera's, Invincible General.

”Hemmm, Boss, are you sure?” Risa was still hesitating. This was not a small matter, she was not sure if ignoring Justice Knight was the right thing to do.

Randy snapped out of his fantasy and looked toward Risa in a surprised manner, ”You still here… Nah, just do as I told you. We are still strong even without them!”

This was what Randy thought. However, it seemed there was another person who did not agree with Randy's opinion, that person was Pristine. She barged into Randy's room.

”No, you have to meet them. Don't be childish, they only ask you to meet them, it's a simple matter.” Pristine was strongly opposed to Randy's idea to ignore the Justice Knight.

”But…” Randy wanted to refute, but Pristine cut him off.

”No but. Why do you want to complicate things when you can solve it with ease? They only ask you to meet them, right? Then just meet them, maybe they want to talk about Nation or whatever it is. For now, just meet them!”

Randy surprised, this was not Pristine she knew. Usually, Pristine would always nod at his conduct, but this time she opposed strongly. This scene remembered him about Long Xinya when she just recently joined Happy Guild.

”Pristine, you changed!” Randy responded with a surprised look.

”What?”

”You are more like my mom now!” Randy blurted out. His mom also often talked like this to him, it was in the past though. Now, Almira rarely scolded him since he had Aveline.

Hearing this, Pristine stunned, she was not expecting this would come. Then, she also found what Randy said was right. Pristine momentarily speechless at Randy's remark.

On the other side, Risa was trying to hold her laugh.

”Good, good. Let's meet them…” Stopped midway, Randy looked toward Pristine, ”But let me make thing clear, I won't persuade them to join us!”

Pristine nodded her head. This time, she could not help but agree with Randy. They came to meet Justice Knight's representative to listen to what the other side wanted to talk.

After that, followed by Risa and Pristine, Randy headed toward where the Justice Knight's representative stayed.

On the way there, Randy curious why Pristine was so firm about Justice Knight to join Divine Empyrean.

”It's because of their ability is very useful to us…”

The one Pristine mentioned was the ability of healing. Yes, there was a Light Elemental Power could be used to heal the injuries. Moreover, this ability could be taught to the others too which Pristine put to the utmost importance.
