"So, what will she be doing in our guild?" Jack asked.
"Blacksmithing job, of course," Haestus replied.
"She will listen to our request? We can ask her to craft or work on equipment?" Jack was amazed. Was this some kind of secret reward? Wouldn't it be a boon for them to acquire an Advanced Expert blacksmith? The best blacksmiths in the guild were still Basic Expert, same as him.
Haestus nodded, "as long as the request is sensible. Of course, you still have to provide her with materials and tools. She will not be bringing anything with her. But since she was part of our faction, you can make purchases on materials or ores via her. We can make a delivery to your Guild Headquarters once the order reaches a reasonable amount."
So, this apprenticeship was also a business transaction, but this still benefitted his guild. They got a skilled professional and a convenient source to purchase materials. There was no reason to reject.
