The Great Thief - Chapter 1241

Chapter 1241: 1241






Lu Li and Square Root Three stood up as the others arrived to greet them, then they each sat down in their respective seats .

Lu Li, Square Root Three and Wandering were the main leaders of the guild, the executive team that made most of the decisions .

With the continuous growth of the guild, Square Root Three was struggling to keep up . White Bread was appointed to be his assistant, but she was feeling unwell today which was why she was absent in the meeting . As for Wandering, he had basically been forced by Lu Li into his position right now .

He was a very capable person, and overlooking the fact that he was a little lazy, narcissistic and toxic, he was actually the perfect Guild Manager .

Lu Li would not forgive himself if he didn't put such a capable and trustworthy person to use . After countless times of trying to persuade him, he finally annoyed Wandering enough for him to agree . After careful evaluation, Lu Li finally built an executive team for the guild .

However, they were only in their positions by name .

Even though Square Root Three was the Guild Leader, he had never been officially appointed .

"Everyone sit . We're all family here; there's no need to be so courteous," Lu Li said as he spointed at the seats around the room . Besides Cat Dad, everyone else that had gathered were professional players of the guild – Moonlight, March Rain, Sakura Memories, Mu Qiu, Kitty Likes Meat and Fat Monkey .

They had been together since the beginning and considered each other to be as close as a family .





They were probably only discussing tournament related topics which was why Hachi Chan and the others were not invited to this meeting . It would do more harm than good for them to be here anyways .

"How come you're being so polite today Lu Li?" Cat Dad laughed .

Kitty Likes Meat glanced at her dad, pouting in anger and remaining silent . Even she could tell that there was something off about the atmosphere in the room .

"Well, I'll get straight to the point then," Lu Li said, deciding not to waste any more time .

Lu Li had always been someone who planned ahead and would do things that were beneficial to himself . However, he only acted like this to very specific people and never to his friends and family .

"It's free agency right now, and I'm sure everyone has received offers from different guilds . I want to hear what everyone thinks of this and if anyone want to leave, I won't force you to stay . I don't even want the penalty fees; I just want everyone to go to a place where they want to be," Lu Li said seriously .

Square Root Three's face dropped .

Why would he not want to take the penalty fees? The penalty fee was the only leverage that Guilds had in keeping star players . If another Guild wanted to poach a particular player, they would have to pay for their new contract, buy-out the old contract and pay for the penalty fees .


Even Ruling Sword, who were considered as one of the most easy-going and generous guilds, had a sizeable penalty fee .





Last year, Fat Monkey's contract was worth one million, but the penalty fees would be three million if he wanted to join a different guild . The guild that poached him would have to pay for the penalty fee and also pay for his contract .

It would take months and years to make back the profit .

However, if Lu Li didn't want to take the penalty fees, he was putting up his players for others to take .

There were plenty of guilds that would happily offer Fat Monkey two to three million, and he would gain a more important position than what he had on Ruling Sword's team .

The same went for all his other players .

"Brother Three, there's no need to say anymore; I'll put my words to action . No one has to feel bad at all because Ruling Swords got to where we were today because of you guys . We would be sad if we wouldn't be able to fight alongside you though," Lu Li interrupted Square Root Three before he could open his mouth .

He was being sentimental; everything he was saying was how he truly felt .

"I won't be leaving . If you want to leave then you can leave by yourself dad . "

Kitty Likes Meat pouted her lips again and decided to ignore her dad .

"Sigh, I never said I was leaving child . Everything I do it's for your own sake . "





Cat Dad was disappointed . He had invested so much time and effort into raising his daughter right and now she was being moody with him . All he wanted to do was to give his daughter more appearances in tournaments and a higher salary .

Once free agency began, everyone was fair game, even if the Guilds would lose out on certain star players . Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .

This was why when free agency season came around, teams would do anything to hold on tight to their players . If they didn't add certain incentives or match other offers, they would lose all their players .

"No thanks . I'll become the best Warlock in the game by myself," Kitty Likes Meat asserted, giving up on communicating to this old man .

Her dad took her to meet other guilds to gauge their offers, then returned to Lu Li to ask for more incentives and play time . Kitty Likes Meat could not take this anymore and finally exploded .

Bam!

Bam!

It was Fat Monkey that had slammed the table .

"Kitty, that's the spirit! We're both become the best in our respective classes . Screw Sorrowless, Unforgettable Maple and the other players; I'll eventually stomp on them like ants beneath my feet!"

"Then why did you meet with the other guilds as well?" Lu Li asked, exposing him .

Fat Monkey's face turned bright red; he scratched his head and mumbled awkwardly, "It's because they offered to meet at all these cool and expensive restaurants . I was hungry so I decided to meet them to get a free meal . I promise I did not take any offers . "

"You went to karaoke as well," Kitty Likes Meat said, adding fuel to the fire .

"Goddammit, whose side are you on and how did you know? I bet you went as well," Fat Monkey shot back in defense .  

"I didn't go . Someone from our guild kept saying that you were going to karaoke with the representatives of a few major guilds," Kitty Likes Meat accused .

"What the heck? That's because Mr . Shen opened up a crappy karaoke store and always complained that I never went . I brought him some business by taking people there and he snitches on me?!"

Fat Monkey was furious and was about to murder that guy .

"Everyone, shut up," Lu Li commanded as he massaged his head .

In Lu Li's mind, Fat Monkey was the one that was most likely to leave . He and Kitty Likes Meat had always been on the lower end of the rotation and their salary was less than a million a year . Fat Monkey was very hot-headed and didn't think with his brain; he could have easily agreed to a tempting offer .

Who would have thought that he was actually meeting up with them for a free meal?

If the other major guilds knew, they would have blacklisted him and never let him sign a deal .
