Vile Evil Hides Under The Veil-Novel

Chapter 462 Agatha Returns

"I want to create a guild. Its name would be White Raven."

Eren said and took a long breath. This was something he had wanted to do for a long time now. He didn't want to be under any guild in this timeline, no matter how good-natured they might seem or be. Plus, the opportunities he was seeking demanded that he form his own guild instead of relying on rankers he couldn't really count on. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on novelenglish.net . ꜰirᴇ

All his preparations in LA were meant to lay the foundation for having a guild. And now he was taking the first step towards that goal.

Altashia was taken aback by Eren's decision for a while before thinking things through. It was not uncommon for students from prestigious academies to start their own guilds. Plus, since he was not planning to stay in the army for a long time, he might as well start these things early.

Eren's active army service also made the city administration more comfortable in vetting him. His documentation and his LA records were flawless. His ranking status as an Ace ranker was sufficient for him to form a guild and serve as its guild master.

Eren had to pay the registration tax as well as half the amount of annual tax at the time of registration. He was officially broke after spending Extols on creating an exit-array inside the Badlands and spending it on making his own guild a reality.

Eren completed all the formalities with the counter lady. She was able to streamline the process, thanks to Eren's active army service status and association with LA.

The White Raven guild was born at that point.

"Sir, we would need one more member for the guild apart from you to give it an active status right away."

The counter lady asked and looked at Altashia. She had to admit that the Ace ranker she had just seen was very attractive. The counter lady was willing to admit this even when she was a woman with straight preferences.

"Eren, you didn't tell me. I'm not ready to be…"

Altashia didn't want to be associated with any guild. Her family had its own guild after all. They would get mad at her for joining a stranger guild instead of what was available to her at home.

Eren looked at Altashia with questionable experience. He then waved his hand and told someone behind the warrior ranker to approach them.

Altashia turned back to see a cute-looking greyish white-haired girl approach them. She was a bit timid. But her presence exuded a beastly aura. She had worn standard adventurer's clothes. Dark green track pants with dark brown, sleeveless armour over the white shirt.

Although she was lacking in terms of beauty when compared to Altashia, the latter had to admit that the approaching girl had her own set of charms that set her apart from the rest.

"Took you long enough, Agatha. How have you been?"

Eren hugged Agatha as soon as she reached the pair by the counter. The latter was surprised at first by such a warm welcome by her master. But that didn't prevent her from hugging him back.

Eren was genuinely happy to see a familiar face after a long time. He also wanted Agatha to realize that she is valued by him. So that she would focus on the tasks assigned to her and not chase after a blindsided revenge and ruin his plans for both of them.

Of course, another reason Eren hugged Agatha in front of Altashia so intimately was that he wanted to make her a bit jelly. And from the looks of it, it seemed to have worked. Because he saw that Altashia was trying to read some texts over the spectral screen placed in front of them to not be seen as awkwardly looking at them. That act made her look more uncomfortable in Eren's eyes.

"I'm fine, Eren. It was your fault for giving me such short notice, you know. Otherwise, I would have arrived on time."

Agatha complained a bit before flashing a mild smile at him. The latter chuckled and shrugged his shoulders before addressing the counter lady once again.

"Agatha will be registering as White Raven's first member."

Eren told the counter lady and had Agatha complete the formality. The latter nodded at him before flashing the ID stone's spectral screen.

"Oh, you are a legal slave of Sir Eren Idril. Ideally, you wouldn't be counted as a regular member.

Since Sir Eren has served in the army, he has certain privileges that can exempt you. Here, place your hands over this array disk."

The counter lady addressed Agatha in a normal voice after checking her details. But Altashia heard it and raised her eyebrows even higher. She couldn't help asking the butcher.

"You… you have a legal slave?"

Eren looked at Altashia as if this was obvious before responding.

"Yeah. But she's more of my assistant than anything. I wouldn't call her that."

'Yeah. Because you already have "proper" slaves in the Oni dungeon.'

Alephee added on. But Eren ignored it and watched as Agatha finished her registration into the White Raven guild.

The guild had been granted an active status when that happened. So, they could technically take up missions assigned by any city admin office, open army missions assigned to guilds, or receive personal requests from other rankers.

Although the White Raven guild was far from taking any lucrative missions for itself even though it had gotten into the system, it was still a start. By having an active status, the guild would be in the loop regarding various open missions sorted by region.

Agatha listened to what Eren had said about her and felt pleased. From her point of view, her master had been a block of stone emotionally for most of the time. His actions were dominated by his desire to succeed at every stage of his life.

But Agatha could tell that something had changed in Eren since a few months ago. Like his dreams, emotions, and everything rigid about him had been re-programmed by someone.

Of course, Agatha welcomed the change.
