I stand by the gate looking around for Myla or Hino. After a few minutes I hear someone call out from outside the school.

"Hey Eric, are you ready to go?" I turn around and see Kallen waving a hand at me. "Before you ask, Myla and Hino went to a Dungeon." He says. I nod and when we get into the backseat of a jeep I see Kagiyama and Sugano in the front and passenger.

"Why are Hino and Myla in a Dungeon?" I ask.

"It's part of their training. In fact if you help us you'll be joining them." Kallen says causing Kagiyama to groan.

"Kallen, we've been over this. You need to properly explain things. Sorry Eric, what Kallen means is that the girls went to a natural formed Dungeon. These are Dungeons that form when the mana in the air becomes to condensed. We have a device that detects them the strength of the monsters inside. We sent them there since it's a weak one and they can get some combat experience in it. Afterwards we harvest it for resources to sell. That's the main way guilds make money." I nod and thank him. We arrive at the mansion and enter it. They lead me back to the room we were at the other day. I try Observing them but they're too high level. Liz isn't here and I see a device on the middle of the table. We sit down and Sugano starts talking.

"So Eric, have you decided? If your going to create a guild or not."

"I have a few questions first." Sugano nods and motions for me to continue. "So, how would I register others as guild members? And is there any way to sell magical items?"

"Yes, we actually have that here, its yours." Sugano says pulling a device out of her bag and handing it to me. I take it and look at it. It looks like a normal touchscreen phone. "This is your guild leader L-market device. Its connected to the market network. You can scan items with the small thumb drive sized scanner that is on the side. Then the device will display a recommended price but you can always change it. Then, once you've confirmed, a summoned creature will appear and take the item. The money will be deposited straight into your account once they get it. Oh, by they I mean the Auctor guild. They're the guild that runs and maintains the market site. This one is special giving you access to the guild masters features. It just means you can ask them to hold any items and get access to some restricted. But you won't be able to buy any restricted items until the government your, well, trusted enough. But you can still sell and buy magical and some non magic items with this." She says and I nod.

"And your other question." Kallen starts pulling another phone looking device out of his pocket. "This is the Silver Gardens, but this is a guild registry device. You take a picture of someone and then answer the questions asked. This will be things like their class, job and skills. It also asks for personal information like their address and how you'd describe their personality. Once registered you wait for a few minutes while someone in the government's Lyna branch looks over it and confirms then you'll get a notification saying whether or not they were accepted into your guild. You can also remove guild members with this. And only the guild master can use it. It takes a blood sample when you first use it to identify your mana circuits." Kallen finishes, Kagiyama smiling approvingly.

"So, any other questions Eric?" Kagiyama asks.

"Not right now. So how do I create a guild?" I ask. The three smile and Sugano stands up.

"Let me see your hand Eric." She says reaching out. I give her my arm and stand up. She takes me to the device on the table. Its a small metal box with a green slanted screen on the front. Its about the size of my schools library PCs. She takes my hand and presses it against the screen. "Okay." She lets go. "First, your guild needs an emblem or logo. So you need to envision it within your mind. This device will draw it out. But don't worry you can redo it as many times as you want." I nod and close my eyes. I want my guild emblem to display my goals. Those being equal rights for beast men. Or fair treatment since I don't actually know how the law handles that. So something beast related. Maybe... how about Bergeth. I am Soul-Linked with him. So Bergeths wolf head, but what else. Just that or... lets make the fur purple. My domain crystal is purple. And it's always been one of my favorite colors. So a purple Bergeth face. I imagine it and open my eyes. I see a purple mighty wolf head floating above my hand and smile.

"Is this what you want?" I hear Kallen ask. I turn to him and nod.

"It's perfect."
