As soon as he was formally inducted, Davis changed his visible title.
{Davis} Chief Appraiser of the Darklight Host Drodh Branch
{Darklight Host}
That was a pretty cool option.
The others had accepted his invitation and changed their titles as well, and now Karl could see that all of their names had a faint gold outline, marking them as Guild Members, though none of them showed a secondary title with their names, only {Darklight Host} as a guild tag.
No, there was one who had rejected the application. Caretaker Jo did not join. Her name looked the same as always, and when Karl gave her a curious look, she just shook her head.
It seemed she was happy as an employee of the house.
Then, it occurred to Karl that there were actual drawbacks to being a Guild Member. He was a War Champion, but how had he gotten that title? During a Guild on Guild war for control of a city.
The membership would also paint a target on their backs if the Guild Members were out and about in the city, where someone might have a grudge against them as a group.
They also didn’t currently have an Overlord Rank leader, as most powerful groups in Drodh City would.
There were hundreds, or possibly over a thousand, Overlords in the city. With Karl only being a Monarch, they were the most minor of minor powers in the city.
But with a whole house full of valuables.
They did have the advantage of being right next to a guard station, but that didn’t mean much if the guards didn’t intervene in Guild Battles.
In Bunga, the guards had sheltered in place, protecting civilians while the battle raged.
The city of Drodh appeared to be mostly stable, as far as Karl could tell. There were some issues between the various factions, but no wide scale battles between them, thanks to the presence of the Governor and his forces.
Karl was thinking about the repercussions of his actions when a soft chime sounded, notifying them that someone had entered the yard.
A pair of elderly Demons, both Overlords with powerful builds, and near three metres tall, came down the stone path and through the open front doors of the shop.
"Oh, now this is interesting. It appears that the sign wasn’t overstating their inventory." One of the old men chuckled.
Davis smiled and made a welcoming gesture.
"Please, do come in and take a look around. We’ve just finished setting up for our first day." He explained.
The ladies retreated to the kitchen, leaving only Karl and Davis to deal with customers.
They looked briefly at the assorted items in the case by the door, then one of the two froze in place as he looked at the staff in the long case on the right of the door.
"That is magnificent. It’s everything that a fire mage could wish for in one spot, and Royal Rank as well. Read new chapters at freewebnovel
But that’s a bit more than I was planning to spend this year."
That made both Karl and the Demon’s friend laugh.
"That’s more than you were planning to spend this decade, you miser. But look at these. There are Mana Jade rings for mages, very similar to the ones that Royal Jeweller is selling for warriors." The other man joked.
It was similar in function, but it had an inscription for mana regeneration, skill activation speed and skill damage instead. It was a purely combat oriented piece of Jewellery, and the mage simply stared at it for a full minute without speaking. freewebnovel.cσ๓
