Chapter 563: Alliance Mechanics
-----
After introducing the Existence of Fuyu to everyone, they looked a bit surprised at first, but things calmed down after a bit, as they seemed to have realized it would be rude to ask so much and decided to calm themselves and act more composed. The Ice Moon Sect Masters, Lord Ice Moon, looked at the two Sect Masters with a bored expression as if saying "first time?" or something.
It was actually quite hilarious, but I decided to calm myself down as well and didn't laughed at it, almost. Nonetheless, we conversation also led to the two sect masters greeting the Lord Ice Moon for a bit and the trio seemed to get along quite well, which was good.
"Let's get along from now on if possible." Said Thaletus.
"Indeed, I hope we can get along." Said Mikohime.
"Ah… Yes, likewise… We have to work together for a common goal, now that we are all… allied together thanks to Drake, I suppose it should be good to get along… and all of that." Said Lord Ice Moon. Unlike the other two, he had a strong sense of fear against me unlike the admiration the other two? had for me, so they sometimes clashed in thought processes.
Why? Well, Lord Ice Moon acted out of intimidation and fear for his life while the other two acted out of devotion and admiration, so it sometimes brought strange nervous talks from his part, as if I were overseeing every conversation and forcing him to act polite.
Well, I am in a way, I don't want him to be rude with the two, they're nice compared to the asshole he actually is deep down, with his whole schema bout killing me and everything he was having, or of taking over my sect… I have not forgotten any of this, you old man.
Nonetheless, we were here not to discuss awkward things and waste time, I was here because Mikohime wanted to introduce me to certain things within the "system" that the association of sects and other organizations related to the Primeval Frost Soul Court had.
"Anyways, we should move to the topic that this meeting started for, Drake-sama, as I had said previously, if you plan for your sect to get registered, and which might be a perfect opportunity after those sect members from the large righteous sects arrive here in a bit more of time, you should register yourself within a territory." Said Mikohime.
"Yes, because your "territory" is the floating castle that you want to keep a secret, you'll have to register another place as your original sect's territory, of course, you can pick our own sects for that." Said Thaletus.
"But how exactly do I do it? Won't they get suspicious how I ended becoming a sect master for the sect out of nowhere?" I wondered.
"Well not exactly, sect masters within sects are always changing, there are sects that always recruit talents from the outside, so the sect masters sometimes are not even related to the main bloodline of the sect, of course, it is preferred if they are." Said Thaletus.
"It is also our word against theirs, and because we are the owners, we can do whatever we want with our sects." Said Mikohime.
"Yeah, there shouldn't be much of a problem with this." said Lord Ice Moon.
"I see, well then, I am on you guys' care in that regard… So I suppose… I can register in all of them?" I wondered.
"It is preferable for only one, and then we say we are in a Sect Alliance, which is led by you as well." Said Thaletus.
"Therefore, it will not be hard to convince them after the initial story we'll tell them about how you rescued us and even helped us resolve the entire dispute." Said Mikohime.
"Oi, you're planning to tell them about how he revived that kid? That's dangerous, it is not something normal people can do, they may not believe you." Said Lord Ice Moon.
"Yeah, that's why we'll not go into details over it, we'll just shortly said that there was a dispute between the two that clouded our judgement and made us hate each other, but it was resolved by Drake." Said Thaletus.
"If they try to delve deeper into the matter, we can find say a few other things, but we'll try to not reveal things too much." Said Mikohime.
"Hmmm… All of this entire thing seems way too specific sometimes, and it depends completely in the type of person they send here… things might end bad…" I sighed.
"Dear, have some faith in the sect masters, they seem dedicated to do it for you." Said Benladann. She held my hand and tried to reassure me.
"Benladann… I guess… I should trust them… But still… Ah, well, whatever, if things go badly, I can always escape." I said.
"Y-Yeah, but I wouldn't prefer that… We'll try our hardest to not make you seem suspicious." Said Mikohime.
"If we include the topic of the Vampires, the evil immortal taking over that criminal sect, and how you stomped them, you'll probably gain a lot of merit, it is good that you kept their corpses too, so we can present evidence." Said Thaletus.
"Yeah, Vampires are the enemies of all righteous sects and nations, so those that slay them are highly regarded, after you're registered in the Alliance, you can even gain bounties by presenting their corpses." Said Mikohime.
"Truly?" I asked.
"Yes, even other things, defeating that entire evil sect that attacked us and killed so many of our sect members and mortals would also give you a great bounty, they might even try to invite you to a city where there might be buildings of the Alliance so you can exchange all the rewards you'll deserve." Said Thaletus.
"Oh… So there is such a thing, like an Adventurer Guild thingy… But I suppose it is more advanced…" I said.
"Adventurer Guild? I didn't thought you knew about them too." Said Mikohime.
"Huh? That actually exists?" I wondered.
