Establishing A Guild

With his hover board he arrived at the guilds association main building in the city, it was five stories tall and half the size of the trading centre but was equally crowded.

Entering the building wasn't as strict as the trading centre but countless powerful auras were around and much more heavily armoured, their weapons were unsheathed and in full view of everyone.

"The Skylark guild is recruiting! Come join us, we give our members good benefits!"

"The Earth Monarchs are recruiting! Don't be fooled by other guild like the Skylark guild, we have better benefits and lesser requirements!"

At the entrance countless guilds were openly recruiting any passerby.

Here in the guilds association is where you can create a guild, you may also ask the staff of the association to send an application to one of the guilds that are certified by the associations.

Zoom passed by and ignored the recruiters as he searched for his sister, he went up the stairs to the second floor where they would meet.

He passed through the west corner of the second floor area.

He could see a familiar young lady with blue hair and eyes, she wore leather armour and a sabre sheathed on a scabbard on her side, she sat on the long couch while she sipped on her coffee.

Zoom walked over and appeared in front of her, she looked confused when he appeared, he had a mask so Ciel couldn't tell who he was.

"Ciel I have fifty-two thousand Universal Coins." Zoom said, Ciel finally recognised his voice.

"Fifty-two thousand?! Wouldn't it take you four days to get that much? Never mind, I just need four thousand more coins." She moved her hand forward and gestured for Zoom to give her the money.

He nodded and placed four red Universal Coins on her palm.

She looked at him again with confusion.

"One red Universal Coins is equal to one thousand." He said.

She nodded and clenched her palm placing the coins in her inventory.

"Place them in your pocket, the game feels to real, the NPCs might be surprised if you simply pull out the coins, it might seem suspicious." Zoom said, Ciel followed placing the coins on her pocket.

"You're right, have you looked at the game forums players kept chatting about some shady individuals asked them about how they could use spatial skills, some NPCs even thought something bad was happening when white lights fell from the sky landing on the ground and players appeared." Ciel said.

The game forums were located on the status screen.

"Be careful." He said, they both approached a desk where a registrar was sitting, they registered their own guild and named it 'Looters Guild' which was recommended by Zoom, Ciel didn't mind it and agreed.

A new section appeared on the forums where a guild chat was now available making it easier to chat and communicate between the many players.

They both left the association building and walked through the streets.

"Where do we place a base? Do we have to buy or rent an area?" Ciel asked.

"I don't know but the first game event will soon be announced soon, go recruit some players I will go complete my quest first." Zoom said before he disappeared in the distance.

***

Zoom tried to remember where the pharmacy was located, he passed through the streets with his hover board.

He passed through the entrance and approached the pharmacy owner who has already calmed down as he sat on his chair behind the counter.

He relaxed his body while his eyes were closed, but hearing someone enter alerted his as he frantically stood up from his seat, he saw Zoom and was immediately elated.

"Ah young man, have you already gathered the herbs I told you about?" The owner asked.

Zoom nodded before taking out the two hundred herbs needed to complete the quest, he placed it at the counter's surface filling it up.

"Alright be right back I'll get some things." The pharmacy owner went to the back of the pharmacy, it took him five minutes to return with a few papers on hand.

"Here, I have a few recipes of basic potions, pill and medicine, or if you'd like to be paid in Universal Coins I'll gladly pay you even ten percent above market price, how about it?" The pharmacy owner said.

"I have some extras and some other herbs I've obtained if you'd like to also buy them, I'll exchange everything for pill recipes." Zoom said, the pharmacy owner was ecstatic, Zoom had extras? And even other types of herbs?

Zoom mostly obtained the herbs from the looted players, he could easily finish the quest thirty times over right now, all the other herbs he had were mostly tier two and even had a few tier three!

'How did they even get tier three?' Zoom wondered.

Zoom placed the herbs on the counter overflowing it while some fell to the ground.

"Ah how about we deal the exchange at the back of the store." The pharmacy owner suggested, Zoom simple nodded and followed.

'I don't think this man would pull anything but better be safe than sorry.' Zoom thought as he cautiously entered the doorway to the back, the lights were switched on by the pharmacy owner.

They both approached at a larger table twelve times the size of the counter, Zoom proceeded to unload all the herbs on the table.

The pharmacy owners smile kept getting wider and wider, the smell of herbs filled the room.

"Ah... Herbs." The pharmacy owner said, he pondered on what to exchange it for.

After thinking for a bit he finally thought of an idea, his face was grim, he went to a cabinet and took out a few papers.

He placed them on the table before saying.

"Here these are mostly tier two and tier one pill recipes, I also have a recipe which my father made, it's fairly expensive to create and I don't even have the funds to create it, I don't think it's even profitable but it's considered a tier three, five tier two and five tier ones, I think it's a fair trade with the amount of herbs you have here."
