Chapter 854 Equippable Item?
Even when everyone came out of the separate space and began prepping to set up the shop for the day, they didn't know that anything had happened. All of the excitement was focused on what was likely happening now in the Castle, and that was a fairly normal thing for the residents of Drodh.
Only when a customer came in looking for potions and talking about Jones the Magma Dragon returning as a Totem did anyone in the shop find out that there was anything going on in the city at all.
"So that's what you did that let you get a new spell. You helped a Dragon advance to Totem Rank." Dana whispered once the customers were all out of the shop again.
"I claim no knowledge of these events. But aren't you pleased with the new spell? It will make long journeys so much more comfortable." Karl replied.
Dana smiled. "Did you know that Rae calls it the 'Dana Space'?"
That made Lotus laugh. "That's a great name for it. But why isn't it the Lotus Space?"
Dana shrugged. She wasn't sure why she had been nominated. Was she secretly Rae's favourite? Did they see her as Karl's pet? Or did Rae just view her as an equippable item? The possibilities were many and varied.
While the city was freaking out about the new Totem Ranked Dragon in town, the atmosphere at the Darklight Host Guild House was quite relaxed. Sales had calmed down to a more reasonable rate in the last few weeks, and they could actually keep items in stock now. With two Commander Rank apprentices, they were doing quite well on standard stock items. But the Professors from Lared Academy were going to have to return to their school soon, and that would put the Alchemy side in a bind.
The two that were doing Runesmithing were mostly making experimental pieces based on assignments that Karl gave them, but the other two were helping Remi with her day-to-day potion making.
Once they were gone back to their regular jobs, she was going to need new assistants, unless she could convince Little Butterfly to make her some solid illusions to do the grunt work for her.
They're constantly looking for good jobs, and the pay here at the Darklight Host shop is significantly better than most other places in town, since we give apprentices a cut of the profits.}
Karl didn't know that the other shops didn't give apprentices a profit share, and just paid them a base salary. The products that their shop sold were incredibly expensive, for the most part, and it just didn't seem right to give them no part of the windfall.
The Guild had already amassed a sizeable fortune in the store's branch of the Guild Bank, and that was after they had paid all their workers.
The Guild Bank wasn't one monolithic storage area. Instead, it was separated into a main bank, a branch bank, and individual store storage. Karl hadn't used the main bank for anything, in case there were others who could access it without his knowledge. But the branch and store storage were strictly 'authorized users at this location' only, so they felt like a safe enough spot to keep money and items stored.
He couldn't see any other branches active, and there was nothing in the main Guild Bank, but that wasn't really unexpected after ten thousand years of inactivity.
What he was more concerned about was some ancient Dragons noticing that he was active and coming to look for the interlopers who had gained access to the Guild.
They might not be so understanding when he explained how he had become a member during a trip to the past. Dragons were territorial, from all that Karl knew about them, and they could view the Guild as their own. Especially if they were from the main branch.
But he didn't have long to focus on that, as there were already applicants waiting outside the wall, hoping to become the new Alchemists for the Darklight Host.
[Remember, you can't just pick the cute ones. They need skills and motivation.] He reminded Remi as she headed out of the yard with Lotus right behind her.
[If they're here first, and not being forced, they obviously have motivation, right? That's halfway there.]
Karl sighed. [Just remember that it's your own days that you are making harder if you don't get good ones.]
