This one would be a hellish training similar to the one BaiYue Sect conducted for their outer sect disciples.
However, there were many details that needed to be fleshed out.
For now, the Suzaku Guild has started the first phase, and Alex has prepared the rest.
He also still needed to reach an agreement with the Hunter Association regarding the new cultivation method.
The way the Suzaku Guild operated would also change now.
In the past, they obtained artifacts and commissioned other researchers to develop a product, just like other top guilds.
Meanwhile, the low and medium-sized ones usually just sold all their loot directly to the association.
The way the Suzaku Guild would work now was to give all the loot to the research division under Prof. Faerith.
As for the magic tools, they would be shared by the guild members who did the hunt.
Other than this, the guild would also give them a fixed salary and gear based on their contribution to the guild.
Compared to this, other guilds usually paid a sign-up bonus, offered some monthly incentives, and then provided a percentage of every dungeon clear based on the contract.
The loot then became owned by the guild.
S-class ability users usually received up to 60% of the reward, but for those A, B, or the lowest, C class, they could only get 20-30% at first, which would rise based on how long they had been with the guild.
A guild would never accept those with powers worse than C class.
This made Suzaku operate very differently from other guilds.
There were others that worked in a similar manner, where they took all the loot and researched it themselves, only giving a report to the association.
But usually, this kind of guild was operated under a specific group or family that outsiders couldn''t join.
Only those from the family or who were scouted could enter. sea??h thё N??eFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Currently, in Alex''s country, only three guilds operate like this.
One from the one percenter Valhalla and the other two guilds were made by families in the same class as Alex.
Arcane Fury and Crimson Blades.
However, all these guilds were just branches, so Emily was not worried about them.
It didn''t take long for Emily to reach the building.
She glanced around the parking lot and, not seeing Alex''s car, quickly made her way to the meeting area.
Entering the room, she saw three people already inside, Quartz and Olivia among them, both wearing smiles on their faces.
After the incident, both of them received numerous offers from other guilds but rejected them all.
For them, the Suzaku Guild was not just a workplace but their home.
They had heard from Emily that the guild would start again, so they didn''t hesitate to rejoin.
Quartz had black hair and a beautiful Middle Eastern face; her brown skin was smooth, but one could see a scar if one looked closely, stretching from her eye all the way to her cheek.
Rather than make her ugly, the scar, in a strange way, enhanced her beauty.
She was taller than Emily and Alex.
Sitting beside her was Olivia, with golden hair that curled at the tips and her golden eyes warmly greeting Emily.
Golden eyes were rare in Alex''s world, but no one found them strange since the advent of mana in the atmosphere.
Not only did people get the ability, but some also got new hair and eye colors.
Olivia''s height often led people to mistake her for a child.
Her face was round and beautiful, but "cute" was the better word to describe her.
In contrast, a young man with silver hair sat opposite her, his expression cold, not even turning his gaze when Emily entered.
Everyone was familiar with his icy demeanor, and if anything, they felt pity for the young man, Zold.
As a child, Zold had been separated from his family due to a Dungeon break.
But his fate took an even darker turn when he was kidnapped by dark hunters and trained as an assassin.
It had taken years until the Suzaku Guild succeeded in rescuing him.
Not long after he was reunited with his father, they were separated again.
His mother had died from stress during Zold''s disappearance, and he also had a sister who was declared dead in the incident that separated him from his family.
If Alex were to read his backstory, despite the situation, he would chuckle inwardly, unable to help but compare him to a main character in a novel.
Now, what Zold lacked was just a system or "golden finger" to turn his life around, and in the future, he would meet his sister as a brainwashed villain and have a fight before finally reconciling.
Fortunately, Alex was not there; otherwise, Emily would read all his thoughts with one look at his expression and end up knocking him on the head.
Quartz stood up from her chair, then ran toward Emily and hugged her.
"Long time no see, Emily.
You look stronger now."
She then stepped back to take a better look at her face and let out a chuckle.
"I still remember when you were a kid running around the guild office.
Now, you''ve already become a beautiful lady and even a hunter."
Emily smiled.
"It''s good to see you too, Aunt Quartz."
She had often played with both of them as a child.
Turning to her other aunt, who was now shorter than her, she greeted, "Good to see you too, Aunt Chibi."
The word "chibi" made Olivia''s veins pop, and she glared sternly at Quartz.
"This is all because of you.
I told you not to tell anyone about it!"
Quartz chuckled.
"Hey, don''t blame me.
Every member of our guild knows you''re called Chibi!"
"That''s because you blurted it out!
No one else would know if you hadn''t said anything."
"Have you seen yourself in the mirror, Olivia?
Do you think no one else would think the same thing?"
Seeing their interaction warmed Emily''s heart, and she said with a chuckle, "Both of you are still as close as ever."
