He had also made an enemy out of the top guilds even before they acted against him when he killed one of their guild mbers. Instead of outright retaliating against him, they were impressed by his strength and abilities and made generous offers to recruit him into their guild, but he refused, and that’s when they first sent assassins after him and beca his enemies.
Victor opened a livestream with the highest viewership, which had hundreds of millions of people watching.
A beautiful female host was seated across from a middle-aged man dressed in a suit.
"Senator Rose, we have heard sothing about the Awakeners Association being established. Can you tell the viewers if that is true?" the beautiful female host asked the man.
"Yes, of course. What you heard is indeed the truth. The governnt has established a new governing body called the Awakeners Association, along with a bill to allow Awakeners to establish guilds," the senator said in a calm voice.
"Honestly speaking, I don’t fully support the establishnt of guilds, as they will beco independent military powers, but I also understand why the governnt would do this, as there is not much better option to prevent them from rebelling against the governnt and becoming criminals than allowing them to beco guild leaders."
"If you don’t mind asking, what will the Awakeners Association’s role be?" the host asked.
"The Awakeners Association will be responsible for regulating guilds and Awakeners, and for this the Association will recruit powerful Awakeners," the man said in a calm voice.
"Senator, so people have shown concern about the establishnt of guilds. Their main concern is what if a guild, after becoming powerful, decides to rebel and harm others. What thod has the governnt co up with to counter this?" the host asked.
"Well, this is indeed a very serious issue, and the governnt also has plans to deal with it. The guilds which register will have an obligation—if a situation like a rogue guild appears, all the guilds and Awakeners will join forces to take down the rebelling guild," the senator said in a serious voice.
"Oh, that’s indeed a very effective solution," the host said with a wide smile.
"Everyone, make sure you register yourself as an Awakener at the Awakeners’ Association that was completed just today within the next 90 days. If you don’t and get caught, you’ll be fined by the governnt and possibly go to jail," the senator warned.
"Awakeners’ Association? It’s already finished? I wasn’t expecting it for at least a few more weeks, if not months," she said.
"They are really in a hurry," Victor mumbled as he closed the livestream, and his thoughts could not help but drift to the changes happening in the real world.
The Awakeners’ Association is a governnt-funded organization that was created to regulate Awakeners to a certain extent, and it has governnts from around the world supporting it, quickly becoming the strongest cultivation faction in the real world.
Furthermore, not only does the Awakeners’ Association regulate Awakeners, but they were also recruiting Awakeners to assist them in maintaining public order, just like the police forces.
The talk about rogue guilds was indeed correct. In fact, the guilds and Awakeners did co together and destroyed a few guilds which had abused their power, thinking they would remain unhard, but they were wrong when all the other guilds and Awakeners joined together and destroyed them. After that, guilds and Awakeners who had harbored thoughts of abusing their power restrained themselves; even if they continued abusing their power, they would not do it in the open.
Victor then opened a famous gaming channel which was interviewing a guild master—and a very famous one, apparently.
"Viewers, today we have a very special guest among our midst, Mathew Hesh, the founder and leader of the very famous guild Crimson Light Guild, who have dominated every major ga over the years, and their rankings have never fallen below the top 10," a handso man said with a smile.
"Thank you for having today," Mathew Hesh said with a smile.
"So, Guild Master Mathew, as you have heard, the governnt has passed a bill to allow the establishnt of guilds in real life, and many top guilds have already started applying for a guild license. So the viewers and your fans must be dying to know whether the Crimson Light Guild will also establish a guild in real life," the handso male host asked.
"Yes indeed. If every guild is already working on establishing themselves in real life, I see no reason why the Crimson Light Guild would not do the sa. In fact, we will also be applying after completing so paperwork. All the mbers of the Crimson Light Guild will join, and we also hope that our fans who have supported us over the years—and those who have beco or will beco Awakeners in the future—will join our guild," Mathew Hesh said while looking at the cara.
"Oh, I am sure they will," the host said, and then continued, "I have heard that the Crimson Light Guild is establishing an academy for Awakeners. Is this true?"
"Yes, it is true. The guild has invested in land, and construction of the building has already begun," Mathew said enthusiastically as Victor closed the livestream.
"Hah, right, academies also started appearing around this ti," Victor mumbled.
Awakener academies were funded by top guilds; so were funded by top families, and a few were even governnt-funded—all with the aim of attracting Awakeners with good potential into joining their academies so that they could recruit them later. In fact, even top universities opened branches for Awakeners, offering courses like blacksmithing, how to survive in the wild, and studies on different monsters in the ga.
Next Day
"Young Master, everything is ready, and the troops are prepared to go hunting monsters with you," Edward entered his room and said with a bow.
"Hmm... you go ahead, I will join you shortly," Victor said with a wave of his hand. Edward nodded and then left his room.
He had already decided which monsters he would hunt today, and these were monsters that he targeted which were closest to his territory and could also provide a valuable source of food, which his territory lacked. These monsters were also the ones which would frequently attack his lands and pose a threat to a territorial lord.
Victor then went outside of the manor and saw the knights who had arrived in proper armor, and this ti they looked like real knights. These armors and weapons were lying in storage and had previously been considered for equipping them with.
