It's early in the morning when he wakes up. He quickly tidied himself up on the bath and put a new set of clothes.
After that, he is now ready to face his day.
He remembers what happens at that night. When the two came back to the guild, Elio told him that she'll be staying in her world for some days.
She also declared her dissatisfaction at Merzalfit's admission to the guild. She didn't go all the way and say that she wanted her gone, but it is clear that she felt conflicted at the thought of the witch being in the same team as hers.
Merzalfit seems to have been back on her usual self, though it seems like she sounds a bit aggressive when he says his concerns about the Red Wolf Guild.
She would like to wipe them out, but in respect to one of her guildmates, she decided to spare them. Though she makes sure to leave a scar on their minds.
If they still didn't repent despite all of that, even Elio won't be able to stop her from killing them.
She truly hates scums. William knows this because it has been established in her story.
As he got to the main room, he saw Merzalfit already awake and seems to be sitting idly on the chair. He is curious about that.
"Why are you here?"
"Oh? Good morning.... are you not happy to see me?" She asked with an amused tone.
"No. What I mean is, I thought your going to explore the world or something. Aren't you curious about this world?" He asked what is making him confused.
She just smirks at him. "Nah... that can come later. For now I wanted to stay here and relax." She leaned her body on her chair as she says that.
The way she leaned on the chair is bewitching, and it might take the sight of many men with just her body. As for him, he is slightly excited by her appearance, but the thought of how she can be terrifying made it so he can hold himself back.
"Whatever. I'll be leaving to get some breakfast. Don't cause any trouble.... hm?"
He is just going to leave when the otherworldly door slowly opens. He thought it might be Kiryo because Elio has stated her desire to stay in her world, when the person who emerges there is a new one.
"Uh... hello?"
A girl with a long vermillion hair and a sharp and menacing gaze peeks on the door, before turning her gaze at them. Then she slowly enters with her large rifle in one of her hand, her sharp amber eyes glancing at the witch before his way.
Just by her clothing, which seems to be a white collared long sleeve shirt, and a large furred darkish coat, and an office lady's skirt, she looks so presentable yet menacing at the same time.
Even her face have the look of a villain.
He is surprised seeing her appearance. He can't mistake that face, because he has been using her on Insertia as one of his main teams.
'Isn't that Akai!?'
Rikudou Akai, the leader of the Foresight Club. She is a self-proclaimed criminal boss who acts like a big boss but is truly just a clumsy and naive girl. She is a student of the Pandemonium Academy.
"Ah! Aren't you the elusive William Foxtrot!"
She exclaims as she stares at him with what he thinks might be admiration. He don't know why her eyes are shining as she focuses her gaze on him.
"Yes?"
"Great! I have been chosen!"
She seems to be very happy, though he don't know why. The girl seems to have noticed how she acts as she froze, before taking a cough to change the topic. She manages to compose herself before looking at him, her face now looks threatening and pretentious.
"Greetings Foxtrot-san. It is I, the leader of the Foresight Club. Do you need something from me?"
He looks at her for a bit, thinking before asking her about something he was confused about.
"How did you know my name?"
"Oho... it is but a simple thing! I have my ways!"
The witch seems to have become interested as she finally talks to the newcomer.
"Who might you be, miss newcomer?"
Akai turns to her before puffing her chest in pride as she introduces herself.
"I am just one of the greatest crime boss in our world, Rikudou Akai! I am the leader of the Foresight Club just as I have stated awhile ago!
"It is nice to meet you...?"
The witch just smiled at her. "Merzalfit. Just call me Merzalfit."
"Of course!" The newcomer nodded quickly.
"By the way, you seem to have a knowledge about this place so are you willing to become my member."
Her eyes lit up at the prospect of that invitation. She quickly nodded her head, and froze when she notice her excited actions.
"Ahem! What I meant is I accept becoming a part of your guild!"
He narrowed his eyes, seeing through her intentions but decided to let her be. She is the least dangerous one than Merzalfit herself.
"Cool. Then I'll quickly go and take the relevant documents to recruit you."
With that, another new member has been added to their roster.
~~o~~
The western part of this city is owned by two rival guilds. Both of these guilds are S Class Tiers.
There is the Volnagen Guild, which is a guild known for their mastery of magic. There are a lot of elite mages in their ranks, and each of their members is a match to any E Rank Guild Leaders.
Their rival S Rank Guild on the other side is the Harmony Guild. An all women's guild led by the strongest fairy in this city, Fionne.
Below them are some subordinate guilds which takes care of their respective areas. One of the subordinate guilds under the Volnagen Guild is the Draupnir Guild, which is the sponsor for the Red Wolf Guild on the Third Western Residential District.
The Draupnir Guild is a guild of vampires. They are very strong, and even Gustav is not a match to one of their officers.
Currently, they have gotten the news of the fall of the Red Wolf Guild. All of their officers and their leader became idiots and cripples who seems to be traumatized by something. They think they might have been cursed.
The one responsible for this has been stated to be a beautiful woman wearing a pointy hat and a slightly revealing outfit. Based on witness testimony, she seems to be unkillable.
One of the Guild Officials of Draupnir, Mikaelis, has heard of this rumors and told this to their leader.
"I see." The leader said, sitting on an elaborate crimson throne. His face looks gloomy.
This is the leader of the Draupnir. He is Van Gromme. A Dhampir, or in other words, a half vampire.
His mother is a human and his father is a vampire. He have been granted both of their strong points, making him one of the strong vampires in this nation.
"Mikaelis. I want you to investigate about this witch. If she is truly unkillable, then recruit her." His eyes turned cold and grim. "If she refuse, take her forcefully. I don't care what methods you use."
"Of course, Lord Van. Your will is my command!"
Mikaelis stood up and left the room after that order. He is going to make sure that he succeed on his order.
On the neighboring district, the Blue Fairy Guild have heard of the fall of their rival guild. They also learned about what happened thanks to the spies that they put in there.
"So there is a girl there who possess the Water Spirit's Physique?"
"There is also a beautiful witch who wipes out that whole disgusting guild!"
"I heard that the guild they are currently a part of is just a weak one."
"Yes! And the guild leader is a guy!"
"Ewwww, they should leave that guild and join ours. They will feel more at home than being together with a disgusting person like a male!"
Beautiful girls gossips to each other, saying whatever they want.
The Blue Fairy Guild is part of the Female Circle Alliance, which many women only guilds are a part of. They believed that girls are a lot stronger than boys, and have an extreme disgust of the opposite sex.
"What do you think, Mistress Mia?"
On the seat only reserved to their leader, there is a beautiful woman sitting in there. She wears a traditional robe that is a reminiscent of a kimono, and she looks like a snow lady.
This is the leader of the Blue Fairy Guild. Mia the Snow Fairy. As stated by her title, she is a real Snow Fairy, and not just a human who bears that title.
She have been in a rivalry against Gustav for a long time, condemning his actions of raping women left and right just to make himself stronger.
Her abilities are a lot different. It mostly consist of controlling ice and being proficient to ice magic. She can also turn her body into a cold mist, making her intangible to most forms of damage.
This woman also have a hatred of men. She didn't like them, and hopes of dominating them through sheer force. For her, men are just disgusting creatures who desires a women's body.
So hearing that a weak man being a guild leader of a weak guild, and he have strong girls as his members has ruined her day. She wanted to do something about that as quickly as possible.
"Okay. We will visit that place and persuade those girls to join our guild. If that guy refuses, we will make sure to teach him a lesson!" She declared imperiously.
The members of her guild looks at her with their eyes shining in amazement.
"As expected of Mistress Mia, she will make sure that a disgusting trash like that to be put in his place!"
"With this, those girls will be saved by his clutches!"
"Mistress Mia, so cool!"
Mia snorted. "Of course. I have already told this to the Alliance so I am sure they will send an envoy to aid us in this!"
The girls cheered at her announcement. Now they feel assured that this "Problem" will be taken care of.
They wanted to recruit those girls because they are strong, and they also took care a guild that spits on their very dignity. They also don't want them to be below a guy, someone that they truly abhor.
Without the awareness of the Foxtrot Guild, many factions within the city became aware of them and have become interested with his members. Trouble is just brewing behind the scenes, and they will be swept up by it sooner or later.
