The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 788

Loros sighed at Rae as they reached the Guild House. "You do know that they’re all freaking out about a teleporting Bloodbath Spider being loose in the Castle right now, don’t you?"

Rae stood up a bit straighter.

"Apprentice, you have no sense for the dramatic. Can you imagine how boring it would be to simply walk out while everyone else gossiped? No, that’s why I waved at the Guards as we entered.

They know that we’re back home already, and they can call off the search."

The shop was packed as they arrived, and Karl was busy on the top floor making new Royal Rank and a handful of custom Monarch Rank items, based on the people who were looking around the shop.

Davis had informed them that a fresh set of items was coming out soon, as inventory would change daily. So, they were milling about and looking more closely at all the ones that were still on display.

The vast majority of people in the city were warriors, so it only made sense to make more items that warriors would appreciate. Even among the common workers, most had a warrior class, and not a specific crafting class.

That seemed odd to Karl, but perhaps they didn’t get to choose any more than those awakened by the Divine Serum did.

The topic of how System Interfaces were awakened wasn’t something that he could easily bring up without having to explain why he didn’t know, and it was better not to spread around too much about the group’s background.

When Karl came downstairs with the next group of items for the display cases, he noticed that there was one girl waiting in the corner who was clearly not a customer, but who was giving him a hopeful look.

So, Karl let Davis place the items to introduce them to the customers who had been waiting for similar items.

"May I help you?" Karl asked the girl.

"Are you hiring? I have the Appraisal skill, and I’m free to start anytime." She asked.

She looked fairly young, so this might be her first attempt at employment, but Karl decided to ask anyhow.

"Do you have a letter of reference from your previous employer or instructor?" He asked.

The girl shook her head.

"I came from Khuld looking for work. I haven’t had a previous employer."

The first part looked like she was saying the truth, but the second was clearly a lie, as she couldn’t look him in the eye.

"Alright, how about this. I will start you as an assistant under Davis for a three-day trial. Follow me upstairs, and we will get you ready for work." Karl offered.

Her face brightened, and Davis gave Karl a confused look.

The girl was freshly showered, he could smell that much, and the shop didn’t have a dress code. At least not one he had been informed of.

But Rae had other ideas. She had made the cutest store clerk dress in black and white, like the Guild Tabard, and she wanted someone to wear it.

Having the crafters do it would be impractical. Nobody wanted sawdust up their skirts.

Karl brought the girl upstairs, where Rae was rapidly setting out items as she created or found them in her space. One after another was held between her and the new employee until she decided on her first dress idea.

"Yes, perfect. Pick a room without a name tag. That will be yours, and you can change for work. The dress should bond, so you can just equip it clean before work every day." Rae explained.

She changed quickly, and Karl led her back down, so he could help take care of the backlog of customers.

{Seriously? She is adorable.} Davis sent as a Guild message, which brought Lotus and Dana out from the Kitchen area.
