With the location agreed, it was now time to proceed to the 2nd and 3rd questions that Leo had asked, specifically what path of a Guild should they choose and how should they achieve the goal of fighting against the Gods.
"Now then, what kind of Guild should we become?" Leo started, "Since we have chosen to go to the Horizon Empire, then I suggest becoming an Adventurer Guild from the Mischievous Lion Academy and register ourselves to the Adventurers Association. In such a way, we are free to explore whatever place we want to go and even be entitled to accept missions similar to Mercenaries, Bounty Hunters, Pioneering, and the likes."
Every Guild in the Celestial World would always be required to register to a specific Association. This was so that a specific Guild, such as the Adventurers Guild, wouldn't just be able to easily recruit people from whatever kind of occupation as they want just because they viewed those people from other occupation as powerful, useful, and profitable but only to end up not giving enough resources to those people which in turn would suppress those people's growth potential in their chosen occupation as they can't receive enough resources or investments.
There were many cases similar to that happening in the past, not only to the Human race but likewise to the Foreign races as well.
One thing should be known by everyone, and that is a different occupation requires different things to prioritize. Although they can all complement each other, but compliment doesn't always mean a good thing.
Like for example, an Adventurer's Guild would always go on a different adventure to maybe explore ruins or undiscovered places. And when they returned, they would of course always be bringing a lot of items that will be useful to another occupation, such as a Blacksmith, Alchemist, or Tailor.
However, the thing is, if a Blacksmith, Alchemist, or Tailor indeed joins that said Adventurers Guild, then they can only rely on a limited amount of knowledge, limited materials, limited items, limited tools, and limited recipes as all of those things need to be relied on what that said Adventurers Guild could get their hands on for them or how much money they would invest on their growth.
Obviously, as an Adventurers Guild, they would focus or prioritize more on what could benefit their adventures, like good weapons, armors, tools, potions, equipment, clothes, and many more which all requires not only money that they can get through exchanging what they have gotten their hands on from their adventure, specifically the rarer the more they can earn, but also craftsmanship from the Blacksmith, Alchemist, or Tailor, that they obviously can't get from their own Craftsman as they are weaker compared to those Craftsmen that has joined a Guild suited for their occupation.
That was the unfortunate outcome for those Blacksmiths, Alchemist, or Tailor who joins that said Adventurers Guild since they would only be able to receive some 'scraps' that was considered as cheap or useless for that said Adventurers Guild so as to improve further their own growth, meaning they will have a limited growth potential when compared to if they just simply joined a proper Blacksmiths Guild, Alchemists Guild, or a Tailors Guild instead.
Of course, a different occupation can still join a Guild of another occupation, since everyone has the free right to decide what Guild they want to join. In fact, that wasn't even the intention of having a requirement for a Guild to register to an Association in the first place as well.
The exact purpose of registering a Guild to a specific Association from the very beginning is to allow another occupation to know that joining the said Guild is not as beneficial as joining the proper Guild for them.
Like for example, if one is a Blacksmith and a Guild tried to recruit them, they would be able to easily know through what Association that Guild was registered on that if they indeed accept joining that Guild, they wouldn't get as much benefit as simply joining a Blacksmith Guild.
As for why a Guild needs to have a guarantor first, like for example the Mischievous Lion Academy, that's because a Guild is technically still a Faction, the only difference between the two is that the former has a much more bigger responsibility compared to the latter, that's why by having a guarantor the Association where the Guild would be registered to can easily be able to look for information about that Guild and hence know whether they passed their qualifications or not.
"I suggest that we become a Merchant Guild instead from the Mischievous Lion Academy and register ourselves to the Merchant Association. In such a way, we can quickly earn money, easily get our hands on rare and above Magical resources, and also be able to recruit more powerful people without any difficulty as we can use monetary gains and rare and above Magical resources to entice them." Cassandra suggested after Leo.
"For me, it's much better to just become an Industrial Guild from the Mischievous Lion Academy and register ourselves to the Blacksmith Association, Alchemist Association, Tailor Association, and similar Craftsman associations. It has always been them that decides more on what to sell, who to sell, and how much is the value of the item to be sold. In this way, we would be able to dictate where the market should develop, which in turn would become the direction of where everyone should proceed." Elizabeth soon after suggested.
"As an Elite member of the Sword and Magic organization, I prefer more to become an Adventurers Guild." Angel didn't bother suggesting as she immediately proceeds to vote. There was no more to suggest anymore, as the cream of the crop associations were already brought up on the table.
"I actually wanted to suggest on becoming a Mage Guild from the Mischievous Lion Academy registered to the Mage Association, considering that compared to what Leo, Cassandra, and Elizabeth had proposes, who are all in the process of improving already, this is one of the occupations that are still under the stage of development. If we can become one of the people that has brought in the most benefits in the Mage Association, then we would be able to easily influence the majority of Mages in the future," Veronica paused before continuing, "But after I realized that the risk we would be taking is still undetermined, my vote goes to becoming a Merchant Guild. I know how many benefits a Merchant Guild could earn once they become a large Guild, so if we can achieve this, then our future wouldn't be rough anymore, especially in terms of money."
"For me, I choose to become an Industrial Guild. No other reason aside from the fact that who controls the product can control the people," Ash said with a smile.
As soon as Ash finished her turn, everyone immediately turned to look at Charlotte, Leo's last remaining woman who hasn't yet voted.
Everyone already knows that there exists a very clear fact and an unsaid rule that only when all of Leo's woman finishes giving their own votes or opinions could the others then be able to also express their own. Until then, they can only listen and shut up. Of course, they can ignore that unsaid rule when the situation really requires them to ignore it, which is not the current case right now.
Seeing this, Charlotte smiled sarcastically as she said, "So now my vote has become necessary? Why don't you guys just go on and agree on one thing and just leave me at the side once again like everytime?"
"Just go and vote," Leo said with a frown on his face.
Seeing Leo frown, Charlotte could only scratch her head embarrassingly as she said, "I honestly don't know what to vote," She turned to look at Leo, "Your suggestion will allow us to become more influential as the strong will always be the one to decide everything," She turned to look at Cassandra, "Your suggestion will allow us to easily earn monetary gains and other types of gains that will allow us to get almost whatever we can," She then turned to look at Elizabeth, "And your suggestion will allow us to control where everyone should develop, which might just be able to point towards the direction of the Gods and everyone will then be fighting against them," She let out a sigh before continuing, "Why don't we just choose to become a Guild that works on everything? Since we are fighting against the Gods, might as well just go and do everything, rather than following the rules and the norms, right?"
Ethan, Elaine, Edward, Sele, Chief Lago, Sebastian, Dan, and old man Torre were momentarily stunned after hearing Charlotte's suggestion before letting out a smile on their faces.
"Indeed, why don't we just try doing pretty much everything?" Ethan nodded his head in agreement.
"No one has tried developing in every Association's, right? Then why don't we try pioneering this instead? If we really fail, then most likely we would only be failing in one Association, not on everything." Elaine explained.
"Can't argue with that," Ethan paused with a smile on his face, "If we really decide to do this, then there's no need for us to think on the process of how we can achieve our goal since we'd basically be doing everything for the first time. Of course, we can still use the others as our reference whenever we encounter a similar problem, but they'd be nothing more than mere reference and not how to solve the problem instead."
Chief Lago spread his right hand in front of him as he said, "First, we are the first ones to do this. Second, we can only minimally rely on the reference from the other associations when they encountered similar problems. Third, the risk is high. Fourth, we can only adapt as we go on. Fifth, and most importantly, it would be a hard journey to walk," He then closed all of his fingers together, turning it into a fist, before continuing, "But once we succeed on everything, just like this fist, we would be able to make something strong, powerful, and nothing compared to what a single finger could offer."
"Didn't think that Chief Lago would have some cringe-worthy days," Sebastian can't help chuckling at Chief Lago's action.
"Indeed, it's like he's not an elder at all, but rather young people like us," Dan said while clapping his hands.
"Sometimes I can't help but wonder, why do sometimes you guys go out of character?" Sele rolled her eyes.
"Young people like you will never be able to understand!" Old man Torre shook his head.
