Chapter 1330 Not a Guild Master

1330 Not a Guild Master

The suite had an oak floor and matching furniture, with a simple chandelier that illuminated the main hall. Branching off from the main hall, which was furnished with a white carpet and a sofa, were a large kitchen, a bathroom, and a master bedroom. The suite occupied the entire top floor, with the main hall spacious enough to host four families. "You can access our library for some leisure; there's also an arcade in that corner," explained Laryn as she presented the main hall to them. "And even better, you can see the entire town from here."

She was right, as the suite had glass walls that allowed them to see the bustling city, breathtaking nature, and cloudy sky. Sunlight enriched their view as it streamed into the entire space without overwhelming their vision. "In the kitchen, you'll find any ingredients you need to cook, and you can call us via the landline to order anything. We guarantee delivery in less than fifteen minutes."

"Even complex meals?" asked Arthur, surprised. "The more complex, the happier our chefs will be," said Laryn with a grin. "There are two bathrooms, one with a bathtub and another with a shower. You also have a small jacuzzi and pool outside on the balcony if you like to swim in this cold weather."

"We can explore the rest from here," said Diana with a nod. "Thank you, miss."

"It was a pleasure! Please feel at home!" Laryn left after that. Arthur and Diana looked around the apartment, and it was indeed befitting the name Victorian. It felt like they were back in Alka because of its medieval theme. There were paintings on the walls famous enough that even Arthur, who was a complete art illiterate, recognized them. "This looks nice, but a little over the top," said Arthur with a smile. "I wanted a low-key holiday, but Julia had to pull out all the stops."

"As long as we aren't identified, it's still low-key," said Diana with a smile as she walked out to the balcony. It overlooked the entire city, and they could see the Blossom Trail from here. Far in the distance were three mountains standing side by side. Arthur came up behind her and hugged her as they enjoyed the view. This was the beginning of their vacation, which would forever change their lives. ***

"Has he checked into the hotel?" asked Julia over the phone, and she received her reply. "How did he react when you gave him the golden card? Impressed? Annoyed? Ah... both. I understand."

Everyone was confused, and they followed Julia's gaze to a new guild master who had risen from Thiria. He had been in command for less than a month, but no one liked his arrogant attitude. The only reason Julia had picked him was that he saved their members countless times before applying.

"Are you referring to me, Vice-Master?" asked the burly man with a grin. "Alright, no need to look so hostile. We abandoned a village because protecting it would have resulted in unnecessary deaths for my men. I made the right call."

"Is that so?" asked Julia with a frosty expression. "Your orders are clear, and everyone knows them. Protect the innocent, and if you cannot, then survive long enough for reinforcements to arrive. In the meantime, I have given you teleportation arrays to send the rescue guild to your aid. Why haven't you used them, Garrick Bloodclaw?"

"Because they cost too much," answered Garrick with a thick grin. "We would have to expend half of our wealth just to summon the Rotten Legion. I made the decision as a guild master to save my men and wealth."

"Wealth?" asked Yuran with a frown. "You didn't activate the arrays to conserve money?"

"Mind your business, gunman," scowled Garrick. "Your guild has the resources, but mine suffers. Not all of us have a chummy relationship with—" "Let me correct you there, Garrick," interrupted Julia with a cold expression. "You are not a guild master. You answer to this guild as a member, no more and no less. But you took the liberty of sacrificing the innocent for selfish reasons." "You want to expel me from the guild?" asked Garrick with a frown. "Over a few measly peasants?!" He slammed a fist on the table, his aura shaking the room. Julia stood firm, facing his outburst. "A barking dog does not scare me," spat Julia as she raised her hand. "As the Vice-Master of Ascent, I hereby sentence you to banishment from the guild. If you resist—"

"You damn whore! You want to expel me for saving my men?!" roared Garrick as he lunged toward Julia, bursting with bloodlust. Before he could make it across the table, nineteen figures appeared around him.
