MMORPG: Rebirth as an Alchemist - Chapter 356: Can you buy his loyalty?

Chapter 356: Can you buy his loyalty?

Mass Release 1/5

After Ren led them for days in game time to clear multiple elemental dungeons, players from White Unicorns are now comfortable and used to Ren’s presence.

Was it even possible not to get used to him? After all, they only had to stand in a safe corner and watch him do all the work. Their only purpose was to make sure that White Unicorns had representatives so that their guild name would be included in the announcements.

Contrary to the regular members’ admiration for Ren’s amazing ATP and list of spells, the commanders couldn’t bring themselves to acknowledge him completely.

Before Ren, their units’ undying loyalty and adoration were theirs. Now… Ren stole the show.

And to make matters even worse, the twin leaders invited Ren to join the guild every time, but not once had Ren said yes. He was even offered a commander’s position right away to carry a hundred players with him as well as granting him access to the guild’s treasury.

Commanders were the very soul of the guild, leading hundreds of players to victory and significantly contributing to moving the guild forward. They all had exceptional skills as an individual, necessary assets to win the battle, and leadership skills that could bring out the best in everyone. In every battle, they were always the center of attention.

Typically, only the guild leader and vice leader would have access to the guild warehouse — but Ren was also given access to it! It was obvious that the higher-ups were trying to buy his loyalty.

The older White Unicorn commanders didn’t even have that privilege — it could be said that access to the guild warehouse was the highest benefit a guild member could receive.

White Unicorns’ Guild Treasury was basically a treasure trove — legendary equipment, rare materials, books, and scrolls, as well as a hell lot of other expensive items, were inside. All of them were high in quality and very expensive!

Big guild or not, all guilds treated their treasury like their child. Except for the leader and vice leader, all the other members could only dream of seeing it.

Even Serine and the other commanders couldn’t access their guild’s treasury, Eric and Erica granting access to Ren must mean they wanted to buy Ren’s loyalty.

Ren’s contract also included a lot of perks and benefits, including giving him a house and lot in Diamond Hill. He would also be paid a million per month, making him the highest-earning commander in the guild.

If he could, Eric would have probably given him the leader’s position. Or even give his sister to wed him if Ren so desire, just to bring him to their side.

Ren also had the right to get the first pick from the loot acquired. His expenses in the real world are also reimbursed by White Unicorns.

His contract was so favorable that all the commanders screamed that it was unfair. If he had a contract like that, then they should also have a contract like that. Eric and Erica replied that they could, but only if they could clear five elemental dungeons alone.

All the commanders instantly shut up.

Unfortunately for them, Ren wouldn’t budge. Nothing could separate him from World Conquerors.

However, Eric and Erica weren’t the types of people who’d give up easily. They had no plans to let Ren go.

Anyone with eyes could tell that Ren could dictate the outcome of any battle as long as he willed it. He was like a bug that was very dangerous if used by an enemy.

Eric and Erica didn’t know how Ren could do it, but they knew that if he joined them, White Unicorns would become the top one and be hailed as the most powerful guild in COVENANT.

Although they couldn’t make Ren agree, the twin leaders were relieved by his stubbornness in not joining any guild. Still, they wouldn’t stop attempting to poach him.

After he finished acquiring all the elemental books for White Unicorns, Ren immediately left the guild before Eric and Erica could have the chance to try changing his mind for the nth time.

Eric and Erica’s attention was also stolen when they heard that Roger and Yuji were fighting with another commander at Fate Alliance Guild, one of the top ten guilds in COVENANT.

A report said that Roger and Yuji went to Frosty Cave, wanting to try beating Ren’s record of clearing it in Hard Difficulty. They were venting their frustration when they encountered the other commanders of Fate Alliance Guild and a battle ensued between the two.

“Those idiots,” Erica muttered under her breath.

“Order them to pull back,” said Eric. “We still have a lot of things to do, and the Guild Wars is just around the corner. We can’t afford to waste resources on something like this.”

“But if we pull back first, wouldn’t they think that we are cowards?” Serine said. “It wouldn’t do good for our image.”

Eric pursed his lips and said, “Our ranking will do the talking. Now send the announcement to cease all PvP at once.”

“Already did,” said Serine. “But they won’t listen.”

Eric’s anger rose, and he decided to go there in person and order them himself.

As soon as Ren heard of what had happened, the battle was already reaching its climax. Since he had some free time after his mission with White Unicorns, he decided to have a look at the live stream.

White Unicorns lived up to their reputation as the number two guild in the rankings. They were very organized and had high ATP, superior GS, and strong sustainability.

However, they were up against a guild that was as old as time and backed by Fate Academy, the number one school in the city that was held together by numerous investors. It wouldn’t be easy to claim victory.

Fate Alliance Guild was able to stand their ground, but when Eric arrived with his unit, they were slowly pushed back.

Dimitri arrived as well, and the intention of both leaders to stop the fight vanished amidst the heat of the battle.

Welp… that escalated quickly. Thought Ren as he ate pizza and drank soda while watching the live stream of the fight.
