nInside a private room in their normal meeting spot at the inn. Ryu and nine others sat around a big table. Once the door was closed, GreenHat couldn't hold back any longer as he asked:

"Alright, out with it. How did you make all that money?

"

nRyu smiled and opened his inventory, taking out a potion and putting it on the table.

"This… This… This… Don't tell me! No way! You're the owner of Heavenly Crafts!?

"

n

"Oh! You got it without me even having to explain anything.

" Ryu was actually very surprised at this. He figured with GreenHat's normal mentality, it would take a while for him to figure it out.

n

"Pfft… Cough! Cough!

" FingerSandwich spat his drink all over one of the new people he had brought along.

"Haha! Why is it that sister in law is more ruthless than any guy I know?

"

n

"Brother, in game, it is not sister in law, it is brother in law. Don't let that slip.

" GreenHat decided to ignore Ryu's jab and berate his brother instead.

n

"It's fine as long as it is not in a public place.

" Ryu waved it off. These private rooms were sound proof. No one could listen in on them, no matter how powerful they were.

"Anyway, why don't we start discussing our main goal for this meeting. We have the members to start a guild but no name for it. Does anyone have any ideas?

"

nOne of the people who FingerSandwich brought raised their hand, catching everyone's attention.

"Yes? Umm… who are you, people, again?

" Ryu just now realized he did not know who these people were.

n

"Ahh, I forgot!

" GreenHat yelled out suddenly.

"These three are the guys that my father sent over. Their names in order are Number 6, Number 7, Number 8. All three are skilled fighters and should level up pretty quickly.

"

n

"It is good to have you on board. Sorry I did not introduce myself earlier. I am Ryu. It is good to meet you.

" Ryu bowed his head to the three men.

n

"It is our honor. We owe Mis.. err Mr. Ryu our thanks for protecting our Pr-Miss.

" Number 6 replied. He seemed to be the leader of the three. After that, the girls also introduced themselves.

n

"Alright, now that the introductions are over, let's get down to business. Does anyone have any ideas for the guild's name?

" Ryu asked, looking at everyone.

n

"I am not good at coming up with names...

" Rose answered. She only has the name she has now because of Violet.

n

"I am the same. My names are not the best in the world.

" Violet also was bad at coming up with names.

n

"Why not use Shadow Squad?

" White Lotus asked.

n

"I do not want to mix the mercenary group with the guild. Since that is more for close friends than an organization like a guild or sect.

" Ryu explained.

n

"That is a good point.

" GreenHat agreed with Ryu on this.

"What about using something old fashioned from like a few hundred years ago. Like The Terminators!

"

n

"Would you stop with that terminator bull**? I have been listening to it for like three days straight now! What is so good about that **ty low quality movie? It only has one muscle bound freak running around saying the same line over and over again.

" WhiteLotus huffed. She had been listening to her boyfriend yell the same catchphrase over and over, and it was really starting to irritate her.

n

"You just do not know what a true masterpiece is!

" GreenHat argued.

n

"Alright, quit fighting. I wouldn't agree to such a lame name anyways.

" Ryu cut in. He didn't want to listen to a lover spat about something so stupid. GreenHat's face fell hearing this as he lowered his head. He was starting to wonder if his interest were off.

nFingerSandwhich raised his head and asked:

"What about Serenity? A guild where anyone can join and have a peaceful, relaxing place to play the game.

"

n

"Serenity…

" Ryu nodded his head. He felt this name was not half bad.

"What do you all think?

"

n

"I think it sounds pretty.

" Violet answered first.

n

"Meto!

" Rose also answered.

n

"I will choose whatever Ryu chooses.

" Chi did not care about what the guild was called as long as Ryu was happy.

n

"I will go with what Ryu decides.

" WhiteLotus did not care what the guild was named as long as everyone could be in the same guild.

n

"Same.

" GreenHat said with a nod.

n

"Then let's go with FingerSandwhich's name. Our guild will be called Serenity.

" Ryu finalized the name. He actually quite liked the name.

n

"So what now? How do we form a guild?

" GreenHat asked.

n

"Guilds need to be okayed by the city lord of the town, village, or city you are located in. Once it is okayed, you need to fill out a form and then pay an establishment fee. Only then will we get access to the guild system. But it will also allow us to buy property in any and every city, village or town with teleports leading to the other locations. But property prices are pretty expensive. I have heard that a few guilds have bought a few properties. But it cost them a few million crowns just to do so.

" WhiteLotus explained.

n

"Money isn't an issue. But what benefits do guild properties give?

" Ryu asked.

n

"There are some minor bonuses based on how much you are willing to pay. It goes from experience bonuses to increased drop rates. Guilds do not give many benefits to cultivators. We would need a sect in order to get cultivator bonuses.

" WhiteLotus explained.

n

"That's fine. We can work out the small details for now. I will sell a few more potions to buy properties here in Roland and Flim village.

" Ryu figured it would be good to establish a guild house in every village he went to since it would make recruiting and traveling easier.

n

"Then we will have to trouble you, Mr. Guild Leader!

" WhiteLotus said jokingly.

n

"Yes, please let me hug you, golden thighs guild leader!

" GreenHat yelled out.
