[The identity of the guild member ‘Ian’ of the ‘Lotus’ guild has been increased to the ‘Baron’ grade.]

[The guild's reputation of the 'Lotus’ increases by 150,000.]

[All conditions for the ‘Lotus’ Guild Node to be promoted from the ‘Village’ grade to the 'Territory’ grade are available. (However, advancements can only be made when a user with a noble status becomes lord.)]

Hers, Fioran, and Kawyn stopped their work and looked at each other as they were selling goods acquired by hunting at the general goods store inside the Node Site.

Because it was a guild system message sent to all guild members, a message came to mind for three people at the same time.

It was Carwin who opened his mouth first.

“Khh, my brother's timing is amazing! ”

The reason three people were at the general goods store was to hunt for security ratings for half the day, then sell the general goods obtained there.

That is, Ian's promotion was made as soon as he met all the other Node criteria.

Upon hearing the system message, Fioran quickly goes into the guild information and checks Ian's information, shaking her head and grumbling.

“But I don't know why Ian left everything private. I went in to see how noble they were, but all of them are floating around without a sign. ”

Kawyn grumbles together.

“You know what? I'm curious about Ian's level, but I can't figure it out. ”

Hers speaks in a playful voice.

“Aigoo, aren't you afraid you'll get caught up in the level? ”

Kawyn flinches for a moment, but soon snorts and says,

“Don't be ridiculous, bro. How long has it been since you were over level 90? Isn't that about level 95? ”

Fioran, who was next to you, cautiously shares her opinions.

“Maybe I should've raised it to 100. ”

“N-no way.I haven't been able to level up since level 95... ”

Hearing the conversation between the two of them, Hers smiles deeply.

“That's the private setting... I guess it just didn't work because it was set during the low level. And Ian was level 98 the last time I asked. ”

He looks embarrassed and sticks his tongue out.

“Eek...? When did you put that up again? ”

Perhaps if Ian had known that he was already 103 levels, all three of them would have been stunned.

The highest level of Fioran was only 113, Hers was 107, and Carwin was 103.

In the case of Kawin, it is caught up.

“That's amazing, by the way. ”

Kawyn and Herce nod at the same time in Fioran's words.

And then the murmur of Hers.

“But what kind of quest did you get to become a baron in the first place? ”

That's what Fioran said.

“Yes? What does that even mean? Isn't that the baron's first title? ”

Hers shakes his head at her words.

“No, it's not. ”

This time, he asked.

“Well, what are we supposed to start with? ”

Hers' answer continues.

“I heard that if you complete an Empire quest for the first time, you'll get the title of Baron or knight. ”

“Really?"

“Yes. So I wanted Ian to start as Baron Joon. You can upgrade your territory as a knight, but it takes a lot of restrictions. Since Baron Joon is a true nobleman. ”

Fioran adds.

“Oh, by the way... yeah? I did a little digging myself, but I didn't think he and the baron were any different. I was just trying to say it's the Baron... So you're one step ahead of Baron Ian? ”

Hers nods and answers.

“Yes, it is. I've never heard of anything like this... but it's good for us anyway. ”

Kawyn grunts and groans.

“By the way, how lucky is this brother? ”

Looking at its shape, Hers smiles bloody.

“At first I thought I was just lucky... but now I feel like I'm not. ”

Herce pauses and opens his mouth.

“Do any of us play as badly as he does? ”

Fioran and Kawyn shake their heads at the same time.

Ian's gameplay was hard to keep up with any of the guild members.

It wasn't just about time I was connected to the game.

There have been a lot of guild members who have been connected all day.

But Ian doesn't just connect, he hunts without rest or follows quests.

That was different.

“He's great, by the way. I don't think I know even twenty barons yet... ”

And Ian would be the first of the new users.

Moreover, there was not a single user with a noble title or a noble title above the baron.

This will also be a good step up the guild ranking.

“I see. Now that you've completed all your quests, Ian should be home soon, right? ”

Hers nods.

“I think so. Now that I've talked about upgrading the territory... I'll be right up. We should promote Ian to the Territory as soon as he gets up here. ”

“Yes. I don't know if I should give this back to Ian, by the way. ”

But Hers and Carwin shake their heads at the same time.

Kawin said.

“Nono. Bugilma keeps doing what Fioran does. ”

Hers was in on it.

“That's right. I think it helps the guild a lot to see what Fioran is doing... ”

There wasn't much of a role for Bugilma at the beginning of the guild, but it was more than twice the size of the guild then, and there was more work for Bugilma to do now than I thought.

And there, they both thought that a more meticulous and well-handled Fioran would be better than Ian, who only hunts shotgun spears.

Fioran gives you a fabulous look.

“But... Wouldn't Ian be sad...?" ”

Kawyn grins and rebukes.

“You know he doesn't care about that. Why is someone who has known Ian for months...? ”

Meanwhile, Ian was moving toward the Node as three people expected.

A very light step!

On Ian's buzzing shoulders was Griffin, a young boy with a beautiful golden feather.

Cuckoo! Cuckoo!

“Fina, are you hungry? ”

Nod.

Ian named Griffin ‘Finn', a newly acquired legendary summoner.

He was also pushing the training skills he was using on Lai.

‘In about 3 days, the pin will be able to capture up to 100 potential.... I'll train Rye afterwards. ’

Pins have 90 potential since they were first acquired.

Like Harley, Finn also intended to level up after reaching 100 potential, so for now, it was more important to increase his potential.

“Let's see, where were the drug meatballs...? ”

As Ian starts going through his inventory, a lot of sleepy people open their eyes.

The word meatballs was more obvious to many than any alarm.

When I hear three letters called meatballs, I get a lot of flashes.

W-!

Ian saw it and laughed.

“Yeah, I'll give you one, too. Wait. ”

Although many people had already eaten the morning meatballs quota, they were not expecting much, but I was moved by Ian's joyful delivery of meatballs.

Much...!

“Here you go. Eat well."

Ian, who handed out meatballs to the summoners, sits on a rock for a moment.

And as I watched the two summoners eat the meatballs, I organized my thoughts.

‘Once we get back to the Node, we have to start running the territory first, right? ’

Most guild members, including Hers, thought Ian was not interested in the territory, but that was the wrong story.

Ian has been very interested in the new content of the territory, just because he was too busy organizing the quests so far.

It's like I'm starting to feel like a new research project.

Ian spent about two or three hours studying a lot about the Node.

Having been crowned Baron, the territory would definitely be promoted as lord, and then we would have to extract the best efficiency from all the contents of the territory.

‘Until now, Yoohyun has done well for me... but I will actually manage the territory, so I should try to grow it as well as I can. ’

There are not many guilds that have succeeded in upgrading the Node to the Rank yet, so there is not much information that has been released, but there is still some interesting information.

In particular, the system that could raise a soldier attracted Ian's attention the most.

‘Raising a large punitive force to raise soldiers will certainly provide a good hunting efficiency. ’

Thanks to the NPCs this time, I was even more excited because I had swept through a huge amount of experience.

‘Now that Holly is over 80 levels, just raise the pin level to a certain level… ugh…. ’

Thinking of sweeping the monsters away with Finn's ‘crushing’ skill, Ian smiled.

It was time to focus on raising the number of summoners we have.

I couldn't afford the power to recruit new summons anyway.

Because Finn's rank was legendary, he was consuming a tremendous amount of leadership, and his leadership was pushed to the limit.

It was only possible because of the additional leadership gained by the hatching of the legendary summons.

‘I don't know when the egg of the new dragon will hatch... but there will be a way to increase its dominance again. ’

Ian gets up from his seat.

I think the Summoners' meals are about over.

But I saw a lot of people looking at something in front of Finn.

Huh-huh-uh.

Ian looks over and sees that Finn ate half a meatball and left it in front of him.

Lots of people were coveting it.

Finn looks at a lot of people and pushes the meatballs with one foot.

Hiccup- Hiccup-

The leafy, leafy look on Finn's face made me feel like I was already full, so I told him to either eat it or not.

And a lot of them quickly crawled up and shoved Finn's meatballs into their mouths.

Huh-huh-huh-uh!

Lots of happy faces!

Seeing him, Ian lost his sight.

If you also get a system message from Finn, he's got 200 percent increase in the likelihood. I thought the message would float.

‘Finn doesn't seem to have much appetite. ’

A fine beak trimmed with meatball oil using feathers!

On the other hand, a lot of people who had eaten up to the meatballs that Finn left behind were sucking and crawling around with a satisfied face.

‘Lots of people are going to love Finn. ’

It's like coming to a chicken house with a friend who doesn't like chicken legs.

Lots of people were coming up to the side of the pin and rubbing their heads.

Almost like you found a soul mate!

He didn't hate a lot of pins.

Ian smiles with a big smile.

The Summoners were friendly with him.

“Come on, come on, guys. We should be there soon. ”

At Ian's words, Finn flew right over and sat on his shoulders, and many, many, many short legs moved hard and approached Ian's front.

Ian strokes Finn's head once and then starts walking again.
