World Online

Jake smiled. He raises his hand, and a pop-up appeared in front of Myriad Arrows.

[Shadow King wants to invite you to his guild: Bright Horizon. Accept Y/N]

"Accept." Myriad Arrows said.

[Myraid Arrows has accepted your request.] A notification appeared in front of Jake this time.

"Good then. Welcome to Bright Horizon. Soon enough, we will have to start taking in new members as well, so both of us will need to be in very good shape." Jake smiled.

"I heard. Bright Horizon is accepting new members in ten hours? I was also a little interested in it, but one hundred silvers a month? Do you think that you can afford an expense like that?" Myriad Arrows asked.

"Let us take you and me. We earnt what, a thousand silvers each in just one day of grinding? Although I do not expect the other members to be as effective, the guild will take all of the drops and divvy them up properly, so that will give them a proper salary. And, the guild itself can grow a lot if we have more members." Jake said.

"You sure are going to raise a lot of heads with whatever you are doing." Myriad Arrows shook his head.

"I hope so. Then, I think I am going to go ahead and rest for now. Tomorrow is going to be an exhausting day, and I think that I will need as much rest as possible." Jake said.

"I will also call a day then. I have been in the game for almost two days, and I am about to give in." Myriad Arrows nodded.

Jake's hand hovered on the log-out button, but he hesitated. He looked at Myriad Arrows, and then at the shop in the distance.

"Sometimes, I hope that this world is the real one." Jake sighed to himself and tapped on the icon.

The world turned black, and then, he opened his eyes in the real one.

"Sir, the reports have come back negative. The person who put that post on the forum has not done anything before, so we do not have anything on him." a man rushed to a brightly lit room with one desk and one chair.

A blue-haired man, probably in his thirties, sat calmly on the chair, looking at the man who had arrived.

"Can't you track him?" the blue-haired man asked.

"Nova is cracking down on tracing, sir. If we try anything now, then Nova might cut us off from the elite group. We cannot afford to lose this information. All our members have access to the best training grounds because of this priority privilege." the man shook his head.

"Damn it." the blue-haired man slammed his hand on the table.

"Fine then. Let us wait and see. Once that bright whatever balloons up, just offer him some gold and swallow up the guild. I don't want to see something else get the limelight. The moment that our guild starts showing its face, everyone in all of Loviel should be looking at us." he said.

"As you wish. I will make arrangements. How much gold should we offer him?"

"Whatever scraps you have left, just give it to him. A nobody like that will not dare refuse this corporation. I don't know how he got that shop, so squeeze it out of him. Tell him that he will never be able to level up if he doesn't tell us." the blue-haired man smiled.

"As you wish, sir."

"There are guards on every side, ma'am. We cannot touch this shop or the one inside it. Seeing as these are guards of the empire, and considering testimonies, it appears as if he is a noble." a man was speaking in a board room, looking with trembling eyes as he glanced at the woman at the edge of the table.

"I thought that we were the first ones to know about the land purchasing capability, but it looks like we are wrong. And we were even beaten to the punch. But get to him. I want to see how he became a noble." the woman said.

"As you wish." the man who was speaking bowed down.

"And the guild, I am interested in it. Why waste time making our own, when we can take one that has so much popularity? See if you can swallow it up. It'll save us money on marketing as well." the woman said.

------------------------------

Vultures were circling. Bright Horizon was just a big, fat piece of meat that everyone wanted a bite of.

Jake knew what he was getting himself into when he did all of this. But he severely underestimated the scale of his project at such an early time for the game.

And he certainly did not know everything that happened even in his past life. After all, in his past life, he was nothing but a small guild member. But now, he was playing in the big leagues.

Jake was sipping coffee, looking out his window. The view from his house was quite good. Living in a Star district really was such a luxury.

Comparing it to the house they were in before, or the internment camp that he spent his time in during his last life, was a crime.

"I should ask mom and dad to stay away from Loviel. It is better to keep them away from this mess. I would rather they not be anywhere near me when I make moves. They might get caught up in a few nets." Jake told himself as he walked out of his room.

It was night, technically, but with everyone clocking more than twenty-four hours in a single go, there was no distinction between night and day.

His brother was awake, but his parents were still in the game.

"Michael, what are you doing?" Jake called out.

"Look at this place I discovered, brother! There are so many brands of cereals! So many candies. So much stuff? Look!" Michael was all the way back in the kitchen, rummaging through the pantry.

"Now, I have to make sure that his fate IS altered." Jake decided as he walked downstairs.
