Lux, Phil, and David arrived in front of the sushi restaurant after riding a bus for 20 minutes.
Ring...
The sound of a bell can be heard at the entrance of the restaurant, as a sign of customers coming in.
"Oh, there they are!" Said Aoki as he noticed their presence.
"Good morning Aoki-san and Kimura-san" lux greets them.
Both David and Phil also greet them.
"Yoooo."- David.
"Good morning"- Phil.
"Good morning too" Aoki and Kimura greet them back.
"it seems that you guys are in a good mood today," said Aoki as he noticed a cheerful aura around them.
'Yeah, except for David' thought lux and Phil.
David immediately retorted: "what do you mean by good mood? I literally lost thousands of gold this morning.
"really? I don't know what happened but it's not my problem" said Aoki indifferently as if he was taunting david.
'Of course, it's not your problem you dumb' thought David annoyed by Aoki's responses.
"Anyway, the group is waiting for you over there" Kimura points his finger towards a certain table with Tommy and others sitting around it.
"Thanks, we will go there now" said lux as they walks towards them.
As soon as they came nearby, they immediately noticed them and called them to join.
"Brother, come here!"- hayato.
Gallahan who had been waiting for like an hour looked at the two with a disappointed expression. "Why are you guys late?"
Lux noticed his angry tone, causing lux to make an excuse. "Haha, we just saw an accident on the way here that's why we're late"
Of course, no one believed such an obvious thing.
At this time, Gallahan glanced at the three with killing intent and spoke in a tone everyone could tell he is angry. "YEAH, SURE, YOU CAN SIT NOW"
The three nodded immediately as soon as they heard this like an obedient dog before sitting on the seats.
Curious lux asked hayato the reasons why he is acting like that."hey, why is he like that" he whispered silently.
Hayato immediately whispered back to explain what happened earlier. "Takeshi told us that he's been waiting for us here like 5 hours ago" he said as an image of Gallahan knocking on the restaurant door at 5:00 am.
"I see" lux muttered awkwardly.
Now that everyone is present here, as the person nominated as the leader, Tommy spoke: "so, how are we gonna create our guild?"
Knowing the requirements and exact details to create a guild, David had a thoughtful expression before saying: "first, we need 15 members, permits, our own office or headquarters, or just a small room where we can organize our mission given to us, and lastly money.
Everyone had a thoughtful expression upon hearing this.
Currently, they are lacking as only 9 members are participating in this guild.
But, what can they do? Let alone a room and money they don't have.
At this time, Aoki appeared next to their table with food in his hands. "You guys look intense while thinking about something, how about eating first" he said as he handed them the food.
"Then, thank you for the food" said Tommy as he was about to eat the food.
Slap...
Wilbur slapped Tommy's hands when he was about to take the food and said. "Can't you read the mood?"
"I'm hungry" he replied.
Wilbur glanced around only to see them staring at them and sighed helplessly. "Okay fine you can eat"
Without any second thoughts, Tommy starts eating after getting permission to eat.
David who doesn't really care about this spoke: "well since we came here, how about we eat first"
David immediately starts eating without caring about others' opinions.
'These guys are shameless' thought lux and sighed before eating the food too.
Hayato with a thoughtful expression glanced at everyone and said: "I have an idea, but I don't know if it works"
"What is it?" Gallahan questioned him curiously.
Hayato was hesitating to say it but, he reluctantly said it. "How about we blackmail the principal.
"........" Everyone went silent upon hearing this.
Feeling the gaze of everyone, hayato immediately explains the meaning behind his words. "Ah, that's not what I mean, what I mean is our family had some secret connection with the principal so maybe we could ask for his permission to create a guild without the exact requirements to create one.
" well, that's a great idea, but we still need more members since the probability of the principal accepting this request is lower compared to what you think," said David while eating.
"He's right, even with such connection with the principal, he's still the kind of person who rejects anyone's request even if they have family backgrounds like a king" said gallahan as he remembered the same circumstance like before.
While overthinking about something familiar when hayato said this.
"Ahhhh!" Lux yelled upon remembering something.
"Wha... What is it?" everyone was startled about this.
"I remembered it now, I think Hayato's idea is gonna work" he said with confidence.
Everyone's expression widens when hearing this ridiculous idea as they started questioning him.
"Can you tell us the reasons to believe you?" Gallahan asked him seriously.
Right now, believing his statement without proper evidence is like believing barber stories that don't make sense no matter how much you believe it.
(Note: don't believe haircutter words without evidence because he's lying)
With no other choice, lux starts explaining except their family connection.
After a while of explaining...
"So you're saying the principal had debts in your family that make him do everything you need as long as it's within his power?" Said Gallahan.
"Well, yeah, I heard it accidentally from my grandma because my grandfather once saved his life before" said lux.
David had a thoughtful expression after hearing his explanation. If it's true, then creating a guild is just a piece of cake at this point, also, they don't even need to create a guild just to prevent being invited from other guilds, but, canceling such opportunity is bad for his business if he wishes to get some things from the Yamato clan and Wilbur, especially lux then canceling it is a bad idea. There are so many things to get from these people just by having connections with them, that's why with deeper relations the better things he gets from this. Of course, he doesn't have any bad intentions or takes things from them for free, just a fair trade.
(David becoming a businessman)
After a while of more thinking, David said. "How about we give it a try? There's nothing wrong with trying since we don't have any choice if we need to create a guild"
Hearing that, everyone nodded in agreement as they realized that there were no other options other than trying to convince the principal to approve their guild.
"Now what are we gonna do?" Asked Takeshi out of curiosity.
"....."
Everyone went silent after hearing that. The only reason they came here is only to discuss about the guild requirements, and now that they finished what they came here for, silent filled the entire room as nothing comes to their minds.
"Well, let's just eat for now and print our guild forms just in case the principal approved our guild." Said David.
Everyone nodded and starts eating together while talking about some trivial things.
While eating, lux asked questions when Aoki was about to take one of the empty plates after noticing something. "Aoki-san, why only the two of you are here?"
Hearing the questions, Aoki immediately responded: "it's because we usually don't have that many customers every morning. Our main customers are students from your school that's why Takashi San and other members who are managing this restaurant only came here when it's noon."
"Ah, is that so"- lux as he noticed that only a few customers are present inside the restaurant.
" But, why you asked?" Aoki said this out of curiosity.
"Nothing, I just want to know" said lux as he starts eating again.
Aoki had a thoughtful look before saying: "you guys should be careful around when you hang out"
Everyone immediately glared at him with a curious expression.
"Why? What is the reason for that?" David questioned him out of curiosity.
"Hmm, I don't know the exact details but, yugitsu told me someone is tailing all of you from a powerful family" he said with a thoughtful look.
Everyone was shocked after hearing this information. Who would not be surprised if you suddenly heard that someone is tailing you, and the most surprising about this is that it came from someone with a powerful background.
"Who could it be?" Said hayato out of curiosity.
"Maybe it's from that woman" said gallahan while trying to guess the people who they came in contact with. Although he has some possibility that it came from their opponent before, he still did not tell this to some innocent one like Tommy as it will create a ruckus. And the reason for telling it came from that woman is because some simp will feel at ease upon hearing this.
Phil, David, and Lux remained silent as they know the real culprit behind this.
Earlier, before taking a bus, they noticed that someone maybe around 20 of them starts tailing them as soon as they noticed their presence.
Of course, the result is like what you think. Every single one of them died after luring them to a shady place where no one can find their bodies.
