Chapter 570: Chapter 327: Adventurer’s Guild (2-in-1)
If I don’t teach you a lesson, you really can’t tell the difference between the big and small jokers!
Some malicious trade associations quickly started scheming.
Then they were dumbfounded.
The leading trade association and the other associations were directly fined heavily by the Black Tide Secret Society, and left with their tails between their legs...
The trade associations, who were initially prepared to make the Adventurer’s Guild suffer, fell silent, feeling extremely aggrieved.
Why didn’t you say you had the Black Tide Secret Society backing you?
Isn’t this entrapment?
The trade associations felt extremely wronged; the fines imposed by the Black Tide Secret Society were not small.
But they had nowhere to complain, since their deeds were indeed shady and their intentions unspeakable.
As trade associations, they are colossal compared to the common people.
But to the Black Tide Secret Society, they are nothing more than a group of walking money bags...
Scot Island belongs to them, and those remnants of the former Church and nobility wielding Extraordinary Powers were dispatched batch after batch, the execution hall’s planks dyed red!
To put it more bluntly, those trade associations are just hugging others’ thighs to make money.
If they dare to stir trouble... wow, that would make them even more impressive than the believers of Kizi Church!
So, the leading trade association understood that this was a warning from the Black Tide Secret Society, and they promptly paid the fines, fearing they might end up on the execution block...
However, they had actually overthought it. Earning shady money like this is indeed immoral, but not to the point of death; the Black Tide Secret Society wouldn’t randomly decapitate people.
After the event, the Black Tide Secret Society also issued a notice, urging adventurers to register with legitimate and lawful Adventurer’s Guilds.
And the mastermind behind all this was gleeful!
"Hahaha, I’ve got money, got money now!" Mira’s eyes sparkled: "Sister Lina, you’re really something—so cunning!"
Lina was a bit speechless, poking her forehead: "What’s with your wording, calling it cunning? It’s the adventurers’ money anyway; I just made these trade associations cough it up."
In Lina’s view, this was no big deal.
The Adventurer’s Guild was established by Rogel, with the backing of the Black Tide Secret Society, so there was no worry about obstruction.
But after interacting with the adventurers, Lina discovered that these trade associations had done a lot of harmful things over time.
And it just so happened that the Adventurer’s Guild needed money for establishment, so she took the opportunity for these trade associations to release some Gold Coins.
Had they not caused trouble, there wouldn’t have been any issues.
The problem was, they had gotten addicted to this shady money, and the appearance of the Adventurer’s Guild naturally threatened their profits, making interference inevitable.
Lina simply exploited their greed.
Now it’s good; the adventurer’s guild has the starting capital from the burst of Gold Coins.
"Okay, okay..." Mira didn’t care at this point and started preparing for more busy work.
"... Mira." At that moment, Yas, who had been standing by for a while, couldn’t help but speak: "... Do you need my help?"
"Mhm, I do."
His cute sister nodded, then pointed to the door.
"Brother, just head outside."
"And then?"
"Yes, just stand there. If anyone intends harm towards me or Sister Lina, beat them up, got it?"
Isn’t that essentially a bodyguard?
Yas: "..."
At this moment, Yas felt utterly aggrieved but had no counterargument.
It’s not that Mira hadn’t asked him to help before, but he always ended up making a mess, overwhelmed.
To say it’s useless is one thing; to say it’s counterproductive is another...
"Sigh..."
Yas couldn’t help but lean against the door and look up at the ceiling, sighing.
To be honest, he used to scoff at his little sister’s love for reading books, given he’d fought his way through life with his fists.
But now, he suddenly realized that some problems couldn’t be solved merely with might.
Like math problems, statistics, etc...
You can punch the paper with the question until it’s dust, but the problem remains...
At this moment, Yas finally understood the importance of learning.
