Zevien then approved all requests, and the seven people joined the clan on its day of creation.

“They sent me an application regarding the clan structure,” Zevien opened an application in his Digi-watch.

“Me too,” Vernisia said as she also got it after receiving a message that notified her of successfully joining the Untold Legend clan.

*****

*****

“There’s also clan chat,” Vernisia said as she explored the application in her Digi-watch.

Zevien also noticed it and saw members talking.

——

Lax- [Oh, Alucard approved us! Yeah, let’s go!]

Reika- [Hello, everyone!]

Mihan- [Me, Lax, and Reika are going to accept an E-rank mission. Does anyone want to join us?]

Jonathan- [I will join.]

Carmaine- [Sorry, I am with two friends right now. I am convincing them to join this clan.]

Reika- [Yeah, I think joining a new clan has its own merits, as we can feel a sense of progress when the clan ranks up.]

Jonathan- [I agree with that as we can also establish a sense of belonging and solidarity. Also, the leader is Alucard. Haha, I want to meet him soon and fight alongside him.]

——

Vernisia and Zevien were watching the members talking in the clan chat in the application.

“I should also a send a message. Both as Alucard and as Zevien,” Zevien said with a smile before he sent a message in the chat.

“I’ll do it too,” Vernisia said.

——

Alucard- [Hi, it’s nice to have this many members already, haha.]

Lax- [Woo-hoo, the leader is here!]

Carmaine- [Hello, Alucard! I hope we can arrange a meeting for our members soon, so we all can meet up.]

Reika- [Hehe, we already met Alucard. But yes, we should arrange a meeting and get to know each other. Oh, and decide on positions too.]

Alucard- [Alright! I will post about the meeting in the announcement panel of the application after I find a good base location for our clan. Let’s work together to make this clan an S rank one!]

Zevien- [Hello, everyone! Yes, Let’s get stronger and progress so we can enter Astral Land.]

Vernisia- [Yep. Although Zevien and I won’t be joining you in missions since we are students of Skyward Academy.]

Lax- [Wow, Skyward Academy students! That’s awesome, hahaha. I heard you guys can add contribution points to the clan by completing quests in the academy?]

Carmaine- [Yes, it’s possible. One of my friends is from Skyward Academy, and she told me that.]

Zevien- [Yep. So we will be contributing by completing the quests of the academy.]

Jonathan- [Good luck.]

Mihan- [Jonathan, we are waiting for you at the mission hall.]

Jonathan- [I will be there in a minute.]

…

Zevien and Vernisia roamed around the Magic Guild headquarters and surrounding towns to gather some information for hours before they went to an exquisite pavilion restaurant to eat lunch at a nearby hi-fi town.

The manager looked at them suspiciously as if they might not be able to pay for the food, but he didn’t look at them like that and nothing else.

“I want a private booth,” Zevien snorted as he took out his card.

The manager was stunned before he quickly nodded and politely smiled. “Right away, sir.”

After a minute, they were led to a private booth on the upper floor.

“Clan base’s location… We saw a few, but I can’t decide,” Vernisia said as she sat on the mattress in the private booth beside Zevien and ordered some food.

“We’ll take some time. So, let others join the clan first,” Zevien said with a smile. “We can choose a good location after a week and then hold a meeting.”

“But how will Zevien and Alucard join the meeting at the same time?” Vernisia asked with a wry smile.

“They won’t,” Zevien shrugged, “But it will be suspicious if only I am absent, so you will also stay absent. As Alucard, I will say that I have already met us.”

“Yeah. After deciding the clan base’s location, we can go there to meet while Alucard is absent,” Vernisia said.

“Hmmm, I have never heard of a magic spell that can create a clone, but there should be one, right?” Zevien wondered curiously before nodding. “Yeah, there should be a clone-type magic spell. Actually… My Inviolable Blood Garden should have a high chance of giving me a spell like that.”

“Oh, you are right! Since you can transform yourself into a creature whose blood you absorb using that awakening spell, there’s a high likelihood of you getting such a spell,” Vernisia said as she nodded repeatedly. But suddenly, her face fell as she remembered the situation in the Inviolable Blood Garden magic labyrinth. “That labyrinth…”

“Mhmm, the situation there is pretty tight,” Zevien sighed. “That shadow called us inside to serve some purpose. We just don’t know what that purpose is.”

“Let’s follow that shadow once we go inside next time,” Vernisia said with a determined face. “We can’t just stay in the garden and waste your progress. Since we’ve survived, we should take that opportunity.”

Zevien grabbed Vernisia’s hand as he adopted a serious expression.

“What?” Vernisia raised her eyebrows, but seeing Zevien’s eyes, she understood and vehemently shook her head. “No! I will not leave you alone in that place. Never!”

Zevien squeezed his grip over Vernisia’s hand before speaking. “Please listen to me just this once.”

Vernisia’s eyes became moist as she became emotional. “Why?! It’s better if we are together in there!”

“Please,” Zevien weakly smiled. “Let me go inside alone. I promise I will not leave you alone after this once. You trust me, right?”

“I trust you more than me,” Vernisia slightly sobbed as her eyes reddened. “But I don’t want to leave you alone in there.”

Zevien couldn’t bear to see her like that because he knew she was doing it for his sake. Sighing, he nodded. “Alright, give me some time to think.”

A smile appeared on Vernisia’s face after hearing that before she side-hugged him tightly and nodded. “Yep! We are still sixteen days away before we enter there, so we can prepare more. And two is better than one in that dangerous place.”

*knock..knock..*

“Sir, Ma’am. We have brought your order. Please open the door.”

Zevien opened the booth door as the servers put some dishes on the table.
