The Immortal Player

Pedro clapped his hands and stood from his chair, while saying, "I would be leaving tomorrow morning. Feel free to approach me if you have some personal concerns that you want to tell me… Moving forward… Neerak, how many adventurers signed up on each combat type division?"

At this moment, Neerak Axutar handed over several papers to Pedro while saying, "There are a total of Eight Hundred Seventy adventurers that enlisted in the Sword Master Division. A total of Fifty-Five adventurers on the Great Magicians Division. A total of Thirty-Nine adventurers on the Sharp Shooter Division. A total of Thirty-Four adventurers on the Berserker Division. And lastly, a total of 4 adventurers on the Eccentric Division."

Pedro simply nodded in response whilst scanning the papers that Neerak Axutar handed to him—which had the names and some minor information about the adventurers were indicated. Then, he glanced towards Weyron and asked, "Did you get any information from your fellow adventurers if they really want to stick with the Sword Master Division? I mean… It's definitely not because of their starting weapons—as you said, Am I right?"

Weyron could only rub the back of his head as he made a troubled smile. Then, he said, "Well… You can say that it, at the least, play a part in it. Although the Market of the Adventurer's Guild was able to provide Bows and Arrows and Magical Weapons, their efficiency in terms of hunting was way lower compared to the newbie sword. And compared to the Berserker Division—who fights in a riskier style compared to the other divisions, the Sword Master Division was a lot safer for the adventurers to use. Thus, most of the adventurers prefer the Sword Master Division instead."

Pedro could not help but frown and rub his chin as he leaned back to his chair and entered into deep thought—thinking of a way to resolve this issue. It was not because he wanted to maintain a balance between the population of the adventurers in each Combat Type Division nor because the instructors won't be able to handle the huge amount of trainees.

The real reason why Pedro wanted to, at the least, increase the number of adventurers enlisted in other Combat Type Divisions other than the Sword Master Division was to increase the flexibility of the Combat Capability of the adventurers overall, incase another apocalyptic quest like the Continental Quest would happen.

Besides… The combat styles of each player should be unique from each other—depending on each adventurer's desires and strategies. The Combat Type Divisions were merely a starting guide designed by Pedro so that players won't needlessly die at the start of the game.

So, Pedro was also quite troubled by the fact that the players might only focus on certain Combat Types that the Adventurer's Guild has set. He still wanted to give other players the freedom to be able to establish their own unique combat styles. After all, it was only that way did the strongest players rose on his past life.

Unfortunately, Weyron could only assume that Pedro wanted to maintain a balance between the adventurers listed on each Combat Type Divisions based on Pedro's Troubled Expression. So, Weyron could only force out a smile and say, "If you want to promote the other Combat Type Divisions… I'll see what I can do! However, I can't promise that the other adventurers would change their chosen combat types. After all…  Forcefully intervening with the adventurer's preferred combat style would only hinder their development even further. And eventually… That may affect both their performance in combat and their relationship with the Adventurer's Guild. So… I suggest that we let them choose their own paths for now."

"Sir Weyron is right, Captain Aron!" Neerak Axutar added that made Pedro glance towards them. "Besides… The adventurers are doing great in all aspects. Be it development or their own talents, there was almost to no failure that can be heard associated with the adventurers that are under the Adventurer's Guild's guidance."

Pedro could only sigh in response and said, "Still… Try to find a way to increase the members under the other Combat Type Divisions. I firmly believe that majority of the adventurers are missing out on their true potentials out of fear or other minor reasons. Understandably, they would act this way at the start but… It would not be an ideal option in the long run… I hope that you two understand my point."contemporary romance

Weyron simply nodded in response and said, "I am fully aware of your concern, Leader Aron. And rest assured, I will find a way to solve this problem later on."

"Then, I'll leave that in your hands," Pedro said in a calm demeanor. Then, he shifted his gaze to Neerak Axutar and asked, "How's the training of the other Deputy Managers of the Adventurer's Guild? We handed over the control of almost every aspect in the Adventurer's Guild to some of your chosen men.  I hope that they can cope up with their tasks."

Neerak Axutar simply forced out a smile in response. Then, after a few seconds, he said, "It would take some more time before they would be able to get used to their work. Don't worry, Captain Aron! Sir Weyron and I are taking a close look at everyone else. Rest assured that there won't be that much of a big problem along the way."

"Be sure with what you said, young man!" Pedro said in a cold demeanor. Then, he raised his brows and said, "Don't forget that you are still under my provisional training. Sooner or later, you would also need to join me in visiting other strongholds. So, make sure that you finish everything that you need to do for the foundation of the Adventurer's Guild as soon as possible. Remember! We're still just laying out the foundations of the organization. And we have to go somewhere in a few months, so we need to finish everything when that time comes."

"Go somewhere?" Neerak Axutar asked with a frown on his face.

Pedro simply nodded in response and said, "Yeah! The BHO HQ!"

Neerak Axutar was stupefied in response. He could only stare towards Pedro as if he was asking, is this for real?

Pedro was already familiar with such reactions. So, he simply remained silent and waited for Neerak Axutar to come back to his senses. That said, before Neerak Axutar could do so, Weyron interrupted with a question, mockingly saying, "BHO HQ? What's that? Some kind of secret hideout?"

Pedro could only force out a smile in response and nod. Then, he said, "Yeah! Something like that!"

"Hooo… Am I not invited?" Weyron asked as his face wore a smirk.

Pedro could only shake his head and said, "You're not strong enough yet! You'd just be humiliating yourself if you join our trip! I suggest that you focus on increasing your strength, and by a year… I might consider bringing you with me to the BHO HQ!" 

Weyron faked a sigh in response. Then, he grumbled, "I get it! I get it! You don't need to worry! With the Adventurer's Guild's assistance, my growth has been accelerated by a lot compared to when I was working on my own. It's only a matter of time before I become strong enough for you to recognize me as someone strong!"

"It great to hear that you have the motivation to become strong. However, always remember that you are also the future leader of the Adventurer's Guild. So… Enjoy!" Pedro chuckled in response.

Weyron could only flick his tongue in response as Neerak Axutar could not help but scoff at what Pedro said. At this moment, Faunia sighed like a tired kid who wants to sleep.

She glanced towards Pedro and asked, "Are the three of you gonna talk longer? If so… I would like to head back to the mansion first and take a nap! I need to restore more energy to hasten my recovery!"

Pedro could only rub the back of his head as he glanced towards Neerak Axutar and Weyron, and said, "Then, that's all for now! I'll call the two of you once again if it is necessary!"

Weyron and Neerak Axutar simply stood in response and bid farewell to Pedro. Then, they left the meeting room before Pedro and Faunia. After all, they had more tasks that they need to handle compared to Pedro.

At this moment, Pedro stood as he stole a glance toward Faunia. Then, he smiled and asked, "Are you staying here to sleep, or are you gonna go back with me to the mansion? Choose wisely!"

Faunia simply lifted her head in response. Then, she said, "Let's go!"

Pedro simply nodded in response as he leads the way back to the Mansion. And when they returned home, Faunia headed straight to her bedroom without much delay, while Pedro went to the workshop area to continue his weapon experiments together with Ragas.
