Master Of None

Chapter 523: 523. Guild Idea

The queen had prepared herself for such a question and did not wait to answer. ”The laws my people uphold are strict. The forest is the gift of the world to us and must be protected. We do not take kindly to any that harm it without any reason or permission. There are many who have come to hunt protected monsters and animals in the past who have been jailed by us.

Not to mention the herbs that were nearly hunted to extinction because of greedy adventurers or other races.”

Walker saw the queen come out powerful and did not want to see this take a negative turn. He kept his eyes locked on her waiting for her next words. ”I would like to require strict regulation on those that enter the forest until the ways of my people have been properly taught.”

The king had expected this to a degree and already had a solution he believed would aid this learning. ”If you are willing and able to provide some of your enforcers as guides it could go a long way to teach the merchants and travelers how to properly traverse the forest and hunt within it. I also have no problem with limiting those who can move within the forest for some time.

I believe the adventurers guild master is having this same discussion with your attendants.”

”The demi-humans people will have no issue following these laws as well. We rely heavily on the food grown in our fields and guard it with similar fervor.” Scylla had nothing other than this to say. It was clear that she would not allow any of her people to disrespect the forest.

This seemed to please the queen enough for her to move on to the next topic. ”My people need time to adjust to other races and the change of culture. There will be merchants, adventurers, and other professions that aim to take advantage of them. I will not allow my people to be bled dry by such individuals.”

Walker was impressed that the queen labeled these as individuals it spoke to her knowledge and wisdom in realizing that these kinds of people were not the normal of a race or kingdom. ”That is why I hand picked the leading merchants from my kingdom. I have brought them here specifically to stay and assist in the growth of your industry.

They have been given the orders to teach everything they know you your people within the span of six months. Until then they are not allowed to return to the kingdom without a letter written by your hand.”

This was more than any of them had expected. Sending three prominent merchants let alone leading merchants away could greatly harm a kingdomsʼ industry. Scylla had no way to rival this and remained silent. The queen on the other hand saw that there may be more to this than the king was letting on.

”You must want something in return, correct?” The queen knew that this move was much more than just a way to build relations.

”Of course, your kingdom has knowledge and system users that mine lacks. I hope that some will travel to mine when I depart and spread their knowledge so that a seed may be planted. More specifically I wish to see if we can learn the ability to craft and manipulate mana crystals as your people do.

It is a great strength we could never rival an elf in, but the dream may be there for some future generations.”

This was a wise trade. The elves would always stand above other races when it came to natural mana and the elemental mana crystals. Asking for artisans to come to the kingdom with that in mind would make these systems and crafts common knowledge which may assist in the elvesʼ culture spreading. It also helped smaller merchants to have a better idea of future trades and business ventures.

”If they are going to have some artisans coming I would like to request some of your warriors to come and participate in the colosseum. It would be a great benefit to our people to see the strength of an ally. It would also make them excited to travel to your city when they are able. Of course, we will also send a small number of merchants with goods and mostly agricultural products.”

Scylla didnʼt waste any time trying to bring the warriors in to this since she saw the opportunity to make sure that Ordist would be able to see the elves in battle. She knew that they had styles, especially ones that used magic, which could cause a revolutionary growth in the kingdomʼs strength. Many young warriors could be influenced to surpass their limits and become greater.

”These two things are not a problem for us. I believe that having guides and some elves leave to represent my people would begin a grand sharing of knowledge. The creation of an adventurersʼ guild would be the start. If I am not mistaken there is also a hero lead creation of a guild in the works.” The queen looked at Walker and Su who were slightly surprised to hear this coming up now.

”I have not heard of such a creation. Would there be some form of heroic guild?” The king was thinking that this would be some form of a guild that would put those in need over others, but there were already groups that did this such as the church and often the adventurers guild.

”I am also very interested. I did not imagine a hero would want to form a guild in such a way.” Scylla had her interest piqued. She was constantly surprised by the things the party did and this was not going to be an exception to the current trend.

With all focus on Walker and Su, the two prepared themselves to speak on Remeyʼs idea to form her own guild. This was going to be a fairly large matter in the future.
