the process is the same, Eva placed the card below a crystal and asked for a few drops of my blood. After the process she passed the card to the guild master, who is still thinking about my class, suddenly he noticed the change that happened in my card.
"it's quite unusual, usually new members of this guild starts with bronze rank or some intermediate colour between bronze and silver, the colour will be changed depending on your talent toward trading and other tasks. But you started with silver rank, you're are a unique and troublesome person".
While listening to it, max nodded wholeheartedly. The guild master laughed and passed the card…
"Hahaha... robe… here is your card, the seal is also been activated... so don't worry much"
When I received my card, I started to check it. Before this card looks like it's made from bronze but now it's been half bronze, half silver and back of my card two symbols are been engraved, one from adventure and another from the merchant guild.
Seeing my reaction Eva explained
"Mr Robe, as the guild master said, that silver side represents your talent in trading unlike adventure guild we don't follow any ranking system but we see based on the fame, contribution and achievement's" .... "Something like your own trading network… or your brand…"
She ends with her explanation the guild master continuer
"Usually, the members of our guild achieve high peek in their fame and are owning their shops, some even having their own company producing their product...."
After a long explanation ... the guild master left with a warning, to keep my information secret
"What is the use of that area?" I asked Eva while pointing to the area with a large line
"that's the trading area where you can sell your products, passing request for the product needed, it is mainly used by small scale business peoples, for a huge trade or transfer of goods is been handled by our guild master himself," she said.
Then she continued "the payment for registration is 4 gold and 5 silvers, usually it cost 3 gold but you have registered in both of the guilds and I hope you know the reason… right".
I nodded... then I paid, without anything to do I started to wonder what to do next and when we are about to leave the reception... there comes a sound…
"Ahhh…. Wait for a second 'robe'…" it's Eva who called us while discussing something with another receptionist.
"Yeah, what is it, Eva…"
"Well… I forget to say something, there is a perfect opportunity to gain fame and it may also help to develop some network between various merchant" she said…
It picked my interest, even though I am not a person for fame but I don't have anything to do right now.
"ho... what it is".
"it's an event which is been held by merchant guild" Eva.
"What kind of" even though I am interested in them I didn't spell them out.
"it's known as 'king cart championship' and it is competition regarding designing and building a cart"
While hearing this, various ideas of designing a cart and various features that can be implemented are flowing in my mind….
And she continued
"Usually merchant relays on their cart, so it takes place a major role in their life. This event focuses on this point and also get ideas from the designer who develops a good cart."..... "Those ideas are been implemented on the other carts to improve the comfort, generally, merchants used to have a long journey and every best idea is been used". Eva said with a polite tone.
Get to know about various kinds of stuff starts to pick my interest toward the event.
"Ho… it's an exciting event, yet how I am going to build it? Even if I have some ideas, without a proper tool how it can be done?" I said with a confused look.
"it's not a problem, normally merchants have their cart makers because they need to maintain the number of carts they own. But for the beginners they are several sheds owned by cart makers, you can ask one of them" Eva.
"Ho… thank you, it's a great help I will use one of them," I said.
"don't bother much they are some basic information. If you want, I can prefer a good shed and he may give you some discou…nt…"
Before she completes another receptionist said something in her ear…. And she continued…
"Hmm… I forget to say cart making is only half of the event and the other half is to capture a proper beast that pulls the cart"
"Well, then how the capturing process I carried out?" as a tamer I asked out of curiosity.
"Generally, most of the participant use slave collar which is mended to capture the beast, some use their physical strength to control their beast. But the second technique is not used often" she said while handing over a piece of paper that shows the location of the shed.
After asking a few more details about the event we left the guild. Then max said he had some things to do so we separated and I moved in search of an inn near the guild.
I planned to make a proper design for my cart within three days, so I could visit the cart makers shed after that with a good design. The event is going to happen at the end of this month and I am having two weeks of a gap for the event. I also need to think about a way to use my skill without getting caught….
