Chapter 70 See You Again!
Chapter 70 See You Again!
Star City was changing. Especially the area which was the former territory of IvoryBow.
The management of the dungeon and territory was being split among other guilds but the largest area was all given to the Shadow Genesis guild.
For one, our guild was the one to defeat the Devil Contractors. It doesn't make sense to not give more territory to those who had actually done the work than to give more territory to those who didn't do anything.
Secondly, our territory is closest to the IvoryBow guild. Much of the territory of IvoryBow was next to our guild's territory.
Our guild ended up taking much of their territory and businesses. The IvoryBow guilds artifacts were confiscated by The Authority but they did give Shadow Genesis guild 20% of the IvoryBow treasury.
Though Zero's dad and Diego were not upset that IvoryBow artifacts were taken by The Authority because they had gotten the storage ring of Solomon.
It might even contain items that are equal to or more than the value of the entire treasury in IvoryBow guild. I mean rather than keeping a strong weapon in an isolated place, you would bring it with you to use it when you need it.
The benefit didn't end there. The popularity that Shadow Genesis guild has received due to defeating the Devil Contractors has attracted lots of guilds and companies that were willing to work with them.
The Shadow Genesis employees were busy negotiating with them. Zero's parents were also busy since they had to hold another meeting with the guest of the party.
First to apologize and compensate for the misfortune that they faced in their guild. The guests did accept their apology.
There was no way that they can not accept it. Firstly, Devil Contractors were trying to kill all the people present there. So in no way was it the Shadow Genesis guild's fault.
Secondly, the Shadow Genesis Executive and other guild members saved their life. Most of them would be powerless against Solomon and other Rank-B Devil Contractors but Shadow Genesis Executive and Warren were there to help them.
Thirdly, Shadow Genesis power. They had become one of the strongest guilds around their area. Defeating the IvoryBow guild was the indication of that power.
Fourthly, Shadow Genesis guild potential. The potential of a guild is mainly assessed by the children of their current guild members.
They have seen Zero easily dominate the match between him and Tristan. Some even saw him take out many Devil Contractors. They didn't need to talk about Shadow Genesis's future potential when their guildmasters son's talents were monstrous.
They were sure that with Zero succeeding the guild, Shadow Genesis would soar in the future.
Instead of criticizing about being ambushed by Devil Contractors, they were busy buttering up Zero's parents.
Zero's parents were busy with all those events and they had no time to look after injured Zero. Zero did get better but they were too worried about him. They decide to call someone to look after Zero.
*****
Zero was not able to stand but it didn't mean he was wasting time. No, instead he was as busy as his parents.
ManaElemist, the group that was trying to create a mana battery has recently joined the company.
The group led by Seth Howard had already started to continue their research in the new factory that our company procured in Star City.
Many resources were purchased and it was hella costly. Especially the monster core which was the main component of the product.
Fortunately, to make mana batteries, Rank-F monster core was used.
If I was told to buy Rank-D and above-ranked monster cores, I would have completely kept this project for when I have billions of Ethan coins.
I had earned quite a lot of money during the past few weeks.
The company was generating more and more revenue. TwitFlick and WorldCraft were becoming extremely popular and many of them had good reviews about the two apps.
Recently, one of the videos on TwitFlick had become extremely popular. It was uploaded on the NightShade page on TwitFlick.
I had NightShade guild upload videos of them fighting with monsters. The video was about their raid team encountering a War Elephant, a Rank-B boss opponent.
The fight was not difficult for a team that has multiple Rank-A's. The War Elephant showed impressive strength like splitting the ground with a stomp.
But eventually, he was killed by the NightShade raid team.
This video earned millions of views on TwitFlick, making it the first to cross one million views and became the most viewed video on TwitFlick.
This also attracted many new users. Where else can they watch Rank-B boss monsters fighting with a team of Rank-A.
This type of video was not there on any platform. Why?
Firstly, there was no way that an average person could film such a video. The cameraman would need to be at least Rank-B. Who would be able to hire a Rank-B to film such videos? They also need the cooperation of Rank-A Explorers. It could cost them a hundred thousand to hire a gold-graded raiding team. No one was stupid to hire them for a video.
Secondly, why would the person want to make such a video? There were not many benefits to it, that is until now. With TwitFlick, the video was able to make money.
TwitFlick finally integrated the system of paying the content creator according to their views.
We could not find that many content creators but TwitFlick was trying to have more people upload more content. With the system of paying the creators, we were able to entice more people to make more interesting content.
The company was also trying to make a streaming feature for TwitFlick. So that the player of WorldCraft could showcase their gameplay to other people.
The other project of Tech Genesis, Megaplex, was also about to be launched.
Not many shops and brands were willing to be in partnership with unknown ideas. But it was not a major problem.
Megaplex had the product that is potions that our company bought previously. We could start by selling those options.
After knowing the benefit of selling products on our online site, other shops will eventually be willing to work with us.
I looked through all the reports from the company. Looking at the report I can say that my company is heading in the right direction.
I also have some people search for a strong sword artifact in auction houses. And also to look for a Rank-SS identification scroll, though I might not be able to afford it with my current money.
But Rank-SS items are very rare and I don't want to miss buying them if they did appear. ????????????
I had also invested in my parents' guild. There was no shortage of investors and other people who were trying to work with Shadow Genesis after the Devil Contractor incident.
But you can never have too much money. Shadow Guild treasury was almost empty due to competing with IvoryBow previously, they needed as many resources as possible to grow bigger.
I also gave my parents the other two Rank-A breakthrough potions. They can give it to the guild member who reaches Rank-B+ peak.
" I feel I have spent too much money recently. "
I took out my phone, opened my Edolas bank account, and checked how much money I currently possess.
==========================
Name: Zero Elea
Account No: 19****7894
Balance: 32,345,000 E
==========================
Well, what can I say? My wallet suddenly increased. Even with all the expenditures that I am doing recently I still had around 32 million Ethan coins.
That amount was more than the gold-graded guild's net worth. And I mean their net worth, not their revenue.
I mean in ten years with the same growth, I may as well become the richest person on Edolas.
But all this wealth was meaningless without being alive. Getting rich is only a secondary goal, becoming strong has been my goal all along.
And the hard work that I did sure has shown its result.

= = = = = = = =
The battle with Devil Contractors was not all that bad. I managed to get my Dual Art to Practitioner proficiency.
I also feel like I am reaching the peak of Rank-E+. The rank would be D.
I know I am working hard to get strong but I am always surprised by the speed of my own growth.
Rank-D in First-year, that also in only half-term. That is an accomplishment that only Hiro would be able to accomplish.
Now there is also a possibility that a person like me can also accomplish.
For an unknown mob to accomplish this much feels unreal. I, an ordinary mob character who was mentioned only three to six times in the novel, was able to become this strong.
