Chapter 356: A bold one!

Rudra looked at the crowd and sighed ..... He hated the fact that he had this stupid cast on his right hand ... It ruined his cool first impression.

However , little did he know that it just added to his domineering aura .... Everyone gulped in fear upon seeing the lineup standing on the stage... 

From the left it was Fatty Kalash , Neatwit and Karna in the relative middle . 

From the right it was SMG , Amelia and finally Jhonny in the relative centre. 

At the end , it was Rudra standing at the absolute centre , as he gazed on the crowd below. 

Fifteen medals! Fifteen medals on the stage , with three triple gold winners! This was the best of the best. The peak of the foodchain lineup , looking down on newbies like them. 

The resepctive heads of departments and finally the guild leader and principal of Elite academy .... Rudra Rajput aka Shakuni himself.

Just his gaze alone silenced the entire crowd , as he looked absolutely domineering in his stance. The man , the myth , the legend himself , who has pulled countless seemingly impossible wins , the winner of the one v one fight , the fight where he toppled the behemoth called nightmare! THAT player Shakuni! His nickname the demon of death valley , and he was now eyeing each one of them. 

Rudra glanced at Karna , who was barely stifling his laughter , and instantly Rudra felt like laughing himself , he thought ' F*** you man I'm trying to intimidate the newbies here , do u have to make me laugh '. 

While Karna thought ' Bahaha , your serious look , looks funny af '. 

Rudra coughed , trying to mentain his demeanor , but for a second while coughing his lips did curve upwards , but it was too fast for anyone to properly notice. 

Rudra gestured towards Karna to speak first , as he continued to look cool and intimidating. Karna chuckled as he said ' alright '. 

Taking a deep breath he looked at the crowd and said " WELCOME ". 

Loud clapping spread across the crowd , as Karna instantly raised his hand to stop it. 

There was silence again .... 

Karna said " in-case you are decieved by my good looks ... I'm not the guild master of this guild , it's the man with the broken arm. I'm vice guild Master Karna , the head of department for the combat division , happy to welcome the first batch of recruits to the best guild in Hazelgroove kingdom ..... The premier guild in Hazelgroove kingdom ..... The PLACE WHERE ONLY THE BEST MAY JOIN .... A GATHERING OF ELITES ONLY ..... Like the name says .... WELCOME TO THE TRUE ELITES! ". 

The silver wolves howl , as the old members cheer .... The hall is filled with rowdy howls of wolves and men alike. 

The energy hits the newbies too as they all start smiling ... Feeling the vibe. 

As if on a roll Karna continues " There is no power structure in this guild per se , you can talk to me like you talk to any of your other colleagues , I'm open and approachable. But like every organisation , there are a few members who have contributed a lot to the guild and continue to be pillars of the guilds support , and they are the gentlemen that stand behind you in black robes and the people on stage beside me. Now what I said applies to me , however if I ever find any one of you , disrespecting any member here , or god help me any elder , then you shall know why I'm the most strict member in the True Elites 

Know that there is only one member here that I will allow you to criticize , and that is our lazy guild leader Shakuni. 

Feel free to troll him , make memes , especially take embarassing videos and send it to me in personal. I promise great rewards for those people". 

Loud roar of laughter erupted in the room , they found Karna to be funny 

Karna started to laugh himself , when he saw Rudra's dejected face ... He completely ruined his cool impression , he was a true friend. 

Karna felt bad for him , soo he did cover up a little then " No but on a serious note , I don't need to tell you much about the guild because , this man here ( pointing towards Rudra ) is the guild! 

Each and every one of us here know , that with him at the helm. WE ARE INVINCIBLE! . The reason why I ask you newbies to troll him , is because us old members can never even dream to. That's how much we respect the guy and I am sure , soon you all will too ". 

Polite clapping followed as Rudra awkwardly scratched his nose. How the hell was he going to make his speech now .... His aura had been ruined , but then the goof Karna also said such sweet words he could not even get mad at the guy. 

' Ahh , shit , here we go again ' thought Rudra , as he said " Your vice guild master sure is a work of art , women are easier to understand than his fickle mind ". 

Another round of laughter followed from the crowd , as Karna's fist landed square on Rudra's biceps . 

Rudra chuckled and continued " 6 months time ... It's not your 4 year University. Yet I am sure , coming out the other side , you will have better understanding of your jobs, than those guys will ever have ! But that will only happen if you fully enjoy and absorb everything we want you to learn in the next 6 months..... Not only in-game , but in 6 months you will learn everything that is actually important in life. Things that schools and colleges won't teach you .... What stocks to invest in ... What insurance to take ... How to pay just as much taxes as you need to. The important things in life , how much you learn will be on you ... As such there will be no exams , but only one graduation test .... You either graduate and become an Elite or take the test again in two weeks time ... or again after another 2 weeks ... Untill you pass! ".
