"What about healers?

" Someone yelled out, interrupting Ryu's speech.

Ryu did not get mad at this interruption because it was a good question.

"As Healers are an essential part of any team and have little combat ability, priests are allowed to join the guild no matter their level without being tested. But just note that if you cause trouble in my guild, I will not only kick you from the guild but also place a bounty on your head as extra punishment if the reason you were kicked was for a serious offense. As you are getting a free pass into the guild, you will be watched more closely. So please do not do anything to harm the guild or your fellow guild members.

"

These were all things ironed out before the recruitment started today. Ryu had forgotten about priests who did not have much combat progress, and testing them would be difficult. But this did not mean they were getting in without being put on parole. Ryu could only hope that he doesn't have to deal with any big issues right off the bat.

"Alright, I have said all that needs to be said. I wish you all good luck!

" Ryu said as he jumped off the stage and headed into the guild house. The front yard was being used as an arena for combat, while the main hall was being used for crafting.

"Ryu!

" Chi came running up to Ryu just as he sat down.

"I think we will need to create a sect once we hit 200 people. I just went to check on things in Flim village, and there was already a little over a thousand players there as well.

"

"So soon!?

" Ryu scratched his head. He was also surprised by this turnout.

"Yeah… Should I log out and see what we need to do to make a sect?

" Chi asked.

"Yeah, go ahead. We should be fine for the time being. Things are really getting nuts.

" Ryu let out a sigh as he waved his hand to the NPC guard to let the first person in.

The girl or man… Sheboy? That walked in was a big burly man with makeup on wearing a dress. Ryu watched as the big burly man looked at him, flip his hair, and spoke in a high pitched voice:

"Hi handsome! My name is Margie! I am here to try out as a crafter for Armaments.

"

"Ahem… I… I see… Then please use the Armament station we set up over there.

" Ryu had paid a high price to rent a few portable crafting stations for each crafting section. There were five crafts so far in the game that everyone could access without needing to meet some kind of requirement: alchemy, pill refinement, rune forging, array master, and armaments master. Since pill cauldrons were rare, Ryu did not set up a pill refinement section. If someone was truly a pill refiner, then they would have their own pill cauldron to use for refinement.

"Thanks, handsome!

" Margie winked and blew a kiss at Ryu, causing Ryu to feel a shiver run up his spine. He was not one to judge people's tastes or hobbies, but even for him, there were things that still made him shiver.

But nonetheless, Ryu still watched closely as Margie went to work creating the first armament of the day. Margie was in complete concentration mode. Nothing was going to disturb this sheboy at this time.

"Hah!

" Margie suddenly let out a loud shout causing Ryu to jump. But this first shout was followed by many more as Margie was doing its thing in front of the furnace.

An hour later, Margie smiled and pulled out a sword from the furnace.

"There!

" Margie got up and handed the sword to Ryu to check.

"Not bad… Although it is of low quality, the attack power on it is good for lower levels. Better than the swords you can buy in the shops in Flim. You pass!

"

"Haha! I knew Darling~ would see how amazing I am!

" Margie gave another wink to Ryu, causing him to visibly shiver again.

"Alright, accept the guild invite,

" Ryu said as he opened his guild window and hit the recruit button.

After Margie, more people came in and were recruited. When the thirtieth person walked in, it was a young man who seemed to have a fancy set of armor on. He walked into the reception area and looked around before giving a snort.

"This shabby place can be considered a guild house? This is nothing compared to what My Golden Sword guild will be making.

"

After saying this, the young man turned towards Ryu and, in a tone full of arrogance, said:

"My name is Gene. I am the leader of Golden Sword. I heard you gave my guildmate BurningToast a hard time while he was setting things up, trying to get a foothold in this game. I will give you a chance now, while you still can. Either merge your guild into mine and give up all your guild funding, and we will forget everything that has happened, or you watch as we slowly destroy your guild.

"

"Umm… Are you sick in the head?

" Ryu asked. He now understood why BurningToast was so stupid. His guild leader was even dumber than him.

"Excuse me?

" Gene tried to keep his calm. He heard that Ryu was very good at riling people up.

"I asked if you are sick in the head because you seem to be. You do realize that this is my guild territory, right?

" Ryu smiled as he stood up and asked this.

"Yeah, what about it?

" Gene had no idea what Ryu was getting at.

"Then let me thank you ahead of time for giving me free loot.

" With these words, Ryu's body flashed and arrived in front of Gene. Before Gene could even move he was already dead and dropped a sack on the ground. Gene was only level one which meant his guild members must have helped him get to Rolan. There was no way a level one could survive a single blow from Ryu. Ryu bent down and picked up the sack that dropped and looked inside it.

"Not bad, not bad. All my expensive potions are in here. These Golden Sword members just love giving me money.

"

Ryu stashed the items away before looking at the crowd of people. And suddenly felt like he was in over his head.

"There are just way too many!

"
