I was very disappointed when I checked the guild information window that popped up when I joined the guild .
“What is this? The number of members is small since it is a group of elites, but you don’t have any alliances or territory? And why do you have so many hostile relationships? Why is a red dragon hostile to you?”
“We haven’t felt the need to make an alliance yet, and there are many enemies due to quests and raids . Umm, don’t worry about the red dragon . He won’t do anything unless we enter his territory . ”
“Putting all that aside, why don’t you have a territory? As a top level guild, shouldn’t the Tzedakah Guild have a territory?”
It had been one year since Satisfy opened . Some top guilds belonged to certain countries and built up their achievements, receiving territory from the kings or nobles . They were barren land, but depending on how the guild manages and develops it, the land could become a city in the future and huge taxes could be collected from it . In other words, the acquisition of a territory was one of the ultimate goals of a guild . Therefore, it was natural to wonder why the Tzedakah Guild didn’t have a territory .
Jishuka explained . “Grid, you are mistaken . Our guild is the strongest guild, not a top guild . There are fewer guild members so there is a limit to how much we can raise our guild level, as you can see by our low guild level . The level of the top guilds is estimated to be around 7~8 right now . ”
“Wow… A bad guild with low level and no territory… How can this guild make me rich?”
It seemed like I joined the wrong guild .
‘I should leave . ’
A man entered the smithy when I decided to leave .
“Listen to a person’s words to the end .
It was Pon who played an active part in the raid against Malacus .
“Our guild might be low in level, but we have steadily built up a reputation as we progressed through quests and raids . Many nobles and nations know about us, and we have received countless offers of territory from them . We just refused . ”
I didn’t understand . “You refused the territory?”
Other guilds were eager to snatch any territory they could . If they could get land, they would lick the feet of the nobles and royalty . Then why did the Tzedakah Guild refuse to accept the territory?
I couldn’t understand it .
“Puhaha! You should bluff more moderately . Why would a guild say no to a territory?”
“Because of you . ” Jishuka pointed at me with her long fingers . Even her hand gesture was seductive . “We had to make the entire continent our area of activity while searching for the unknown craftsman . That made it difficult to have a base and manage it . The nobles and royal families started to make suggestions about us becoming their subordinates around the time of your appearance . ”
In other words…
“You gave up territory just to find me?”
“Yes . But strictly speaking, we didn’t give it up . It is just on hold for a while . We can get territory in any country we want at any time . ”
I never imagined how much the Tzedakah Guild needed me . “But why do you want me so much? You know now that I have a hidden job, but at that time, didn’t you just know me as a blacksmith?”
“The reason we want you is because you’re a blacksmith . Your hidden class is irrelevant . ”
Pon explained .
“The average user level in Satisfy is 80 . High-level users like us are just a fraction of the two billion users, so there is always a shortage of equipment available for high-level users . The items with the performance we want are rarely dropped through hunting or raids, so we have to rely on produced items…”
Was it to welcome my new colleagues? Khan kindly came out with refreshments . He was an NPC, but Pon respectfully accepted the teacup given to him . Then he continued speaking .
“A blacksmith who can produce high-level items is very rare . Among users, there are no advanced blacksmiths and even the advanced NPC blacksmiths are only available in major cities . In addition, advanced blacksmiths only have a low chance of making epic or higher rated items, so the burden of investing the materials and the commission fee is very high . ”
Jishuka took over . “Then epic rated arrows that not even advanced blacksmiths could make appeared . We thought that the maker had the ability to produce the items we wanted, so we earnestly searched for you . ”
“…”
The Tzedakah Guild recognized my abilities first and searched for me . I confirmed that I made the right decision in joining them .
“We came looking for you . You have the ability we want . ”
After that . All 17 members of the Tzedakah Guild, including Jishuka and Pon, gathered at Khan’s smithy . Then they welcomed me with enthusiasm . All of them looked at me with expectant eyes, making me feel overwhelmed . But unexpected, not one person asked about my class .
“Isn’t anyone interested in my class?”
Jishuka smiled gently .
“It isn’t that we have no interest . Everyone, including myself, is curious about the exact class . But we won’t ask because we know that hidden classes are reluctant to disclose information about their class . ”
“Hoh…”
It was really meticulous care . As I started liking the guild more and more, Jishuka cut to the chase .
“Grid, in the future, I want to commission items for the guild members . We want epic or higher rated items suitable for our level . We will buy the completed items for an appropriate price . ”
“It is okay if you give me money . But it will take a while to obtain the materials and production methods required…”
“If you tell us what you need, we will get it for you . You just have to worry about making it . ”
That was convenient .
“Okay . But I don’t have a lot of capital, so I can’t make too many items at once .
Jishuka made a confused sound . “Capital? Why do you need capital? The guild will supply the materials and production methods . All you need is time and the technique . ”
“… Eh?”
Were they going to give me free materials and production methods? This sounded like a dream! No, don’t get too excited . It was strange . It was suspicious that they were so nice from the beginning . I couldn’t believe in people-especially women- because they might hit me in the back of the head!
I became wary of Jishuka .
“You’ll give me the materials for free and then buy the finished item from me? Why are you giving me the materials and production methods? Isn’t it just a loss for you?”
“Hah?” Jishuka was confused . “What are you talking about? Aren’t you a blacksmith of our guild? It’s natural for the guild to support our blacksmith with materials and the production methods . ”
Regas laughed from where he was listening to the side .
“Grid, a competent blacksmith is a talent that all guilds covet . They have to give the blacksmiths the best treatment to prevent them from going to other guilds . It is obvious that a guild with a competent blacksmith will have a huge growth gap with a guild that doesn’t have one . ”
“Wow…”
A blacksmith class, wasn’t it a total honey-like class? But this was only for competent blacksmiths!
‘Blacksmiths are very difficult to grow… So the value of an exceptional blacksmith is very high . However, Pagma’s Descendant has fraudulent blacksmith skills so it honey…’
I once again felt the greatness of a legendary class and appreciated it .
‘I want to start working . ’
I was filled with enthusiasm and prompted Jishuka . “So who am I making an item for?”
Pon raised his hand in a flash .
“Me!”
Vantner grabbed Pon’s hand . Then he raised his hand . “No, me first!”
Toban shouted . “Of course, the master should be first! Then the chief of staff!”
“What does chief of staff have to do with the sequence? Don’t abuse your authority . ”
All members of the Tzedakah Guild were rankers . They all aimed at and desired to level up . Being armed with stronger items would make it faster and easier to hunt . It was obvious that all of them wanted their item to be made first .
No, I had to exclude Regas, who was laughing without saying anything .
