The Villainess With A Heroine Harem

Chapter 783 The First Guild

?

???????????????

"Doesn't it cost a lot of gold to make a guild in most games? It doesn't seem to say anything like that…" Danielle frowned.

Obviously, she wasn't as worried about not being able to afford the cost as she was about 'missing' the opportunity to create a guild because of being too hasty and trying it before she should have.

After all, while it might seem unlikely, it wasn't impossible for the creation of the guild to fail due to insufficient funds, and then for them to need to acquire some 'special item' for the same.

Listening to the drill-haired girl's strange thoughts, Emilia couldn't help but giggle. "I don't think it should be that complicated… why don't you just give it a try?"

Crystal also nodded to show her support, making Sylvia roll her eyes in exasperation.

'It's one thing for Emilia to be worry-free, but by indulging her along like that, this blondie is definitely going to be a bad influence on her!' She thought.

Fortunately, Danielle was in no mood to start an argument, and quickly grit her teeth to make a decision. "Screw it! If it's a trap, we can at least hurry up and rush to do the event."

Emilia grinned and gave her a thumbs up.

Just as Danielle 'pressed' confirm and entered the 'name' for their guild as 'Crimson Witches', though, the whole team immediately received a notification.

==========

New Guild [Crimson Witches] has been created! Please acquire a [Guild Office] to unlock more functions in the 'Guild' menu.

Currently Rank — 1st out of [1] guilds, with 1308 points.

==========

Danielle suddenly had a foreboding feeling. "Wait… that rank thing… don't tell me we're already on the leaderboards?!"

Emilia hummed and opened the menu, and soon confirmed her thoughts.

Arcadia's leaderboard obviously had a minimum threshold for listing, and none of the categories had been populated till that day. But now, the previously empty guild rankings had one entry, with their guild name and points clearly stated for everyone to see.

In fact, although they hadn't yet figured it out, '1308' was just the sum of all their base attributes, and it wasn't hard to guess that they'd soon have to concede this number one position to larger guilds.

But even if she already knew this, Emilia wouldn't let her teammates know. After all, there was more to guild points than just these numbers. Instead of discouraging them now, it was better to help them earn more points in the dungeon.

Looking at Danielle's expression, though, the crimson-haired girl couldn't help but tilt her head in confusion. "Aren't you happy?"

Danielle turned to her in surprise, remaining silent for a while, then sighed. "Happy? Of course I am. I just find it a little hard to believe that it happened like this."

After all, they might have been 'far ahead' of everyone else in the world, but no one really seemed to acknowledge it, including the game. It was as if everyone universally agreed that it was a fluke, and her team would soon return to mediocrity once things advanced a little more.

Having a real position on the official leaderboard completely changed that, and it was impossible to say that Danielle wasn't happy.

But while she'd been looking forward to and dreaming of being the 'number one' for a long time, Danielle didn't want targets to be painted on their backs so soon, so she couldn't help but be worried as well.

Regardless of what she thought, though, the drill-haired girl knew better than to regret her decisions. After all, even if it got them into a lot of trouble, she felt like she would have regretted it more if they'd missed the opportunity.

Emilia giggled, and she was just about to respond when she spotted one of the supposedly 'hidden' guardians of the dungeon peeking out from behind a giant tree to glare at them impatiently. 'Uh… we should probably hurry up, huh?'

Unfortunately, most of her team was already distracted by one of the only functions not locked until they acquired the 'Guild Office'… the log.

"Hey look, we can now view all sorts of notifications from each other in the guild log!"

"Ahhh, I can hide mine if I want, too!"

"Emilia's notification is the first one as expected, huh…"

"She's the most impatient, after all."

Emilia couldn't help but pout. "Hey!"

While Nico and Robin were teasing the crimson-haired beauty, however, Danielle and Sylvia were busy checking out the newly discovered guild log, leaving only Crystal to sympathize with her.
