Being alone would be the hardest thing for any master, and having such a group following anyone was a blessing. William didn't think ahead of himself, didn't think about what he'd do when reaching the outer world.
And yet he was excited as he knew he'd start with a big bang out there!
"Gather up," William looked around, and said to everyone here. In a few minutes, everyone in both teams gathered around, "I won't separate any of you from you in my training. But this will only last for six months. After that I'll personally check on all of your progress. The ones who impress me will continue to get my special training. So make sure to work hard and not slack, got it?"
"Got it, boss!" The new members learnt from the old ones how to call William.
"Good, now the first task for you is to arrange the newly joined members of our guild, form teams led by you, and send them out to do missions," he paused before adding, "Your task is to eradicate any dark master base or a lair of monsters below dark gold grade alone. Once done, return with everything and report to my vices…"
William then took out a map of the entire continent. He had it from Lara before, and then he pointed towards different regions. He didn't care about which area belonged to which force, and simply allocated every region to his two team members.
"Is this a test?" Peter asked, and William nodded.
"A good master isn't just strong ones, but those able to lead others and execute the tasks required from them," William paused, looking around before adding, stressing his words, "this won't be the final test, but it will tell me a lot about your potential. So make sure to execute the task, and not lose too much of your members…"
He turned to his friends before adding, "you will gather up the lists each team leader will provide. Make sure to make a recheck after their return, including the time they took to finish the task, their gains from it, the number and strength of the enemies they fought, and the number of losses they suffered during the tasks…"
William numerated the parameters he'd use to assess their performance. He didn't just want them to execute the tasks, but also to preserve most of their members.
He didn't just select this mission out of blue. It was a standard method in the outer world to assess any potential master's abilities. Not to mention he wanted them to develop more ties with everyone else in the guild.
Doing so would pave the road for those staying behind to rule the grand behemoth of heritage he'd leave behind. He wasn't that much caring about the guild after leaving here, but who knew? The guild might continue to produce good talents and send them to the outer world from time to time.
"How about you?" Berry asked, "don't tell me you are going on a trip alone!"
"Well… I was thinking about training a little bit," William paused, "just do your task and don't interrupt me. I'm going to seclude myself and train until everyone is done. Good luck to all, and see you soon."
He didn't stick behind and went back to the main building here, aiming to lock down on himself. But who knew he was destined to get disturbed in just one day after all this.
His friends and two team members started to do what he said. The entire guild went on fire when news spread. It was a mission not to extricate the dark masters and monsters all over the continent, but it was something that the boss issued.
And the ones who would execute perfectly in this mission would rise up in ranks. That meant masters could help in elevating their newly appointed leaders to high ranks, rising up with them as well.
This started a fever among the entire guild members here. And soon enough, many guild members outside heard the news and decided to return back.
They asked for more time to return, and the vices couldn't help but accept that. More masters came every hour, and the vices said they'd wait for one week before launching the mission.
During this time, the two team members started to recruit masters to join their teams. They weren't just picking the strongest ones, but also masters with different abilities and techniques. At the same time, the old members had more experience and learnt a lot from William. So they started selecting members based on the same unique testing method William used.
ραndαsΝοvεl.cοm As the new members watched this, they started to imitate them. However trying to mimic the method without knowing what to see through the crystals wasn't going to help.
Few started to ask, seeing if others were willing to help or not. And when they got good answers and detailed explanations from everyone, even many went to the extent of showing them examples of different crystals belonging to many masters, others started to ask and learn as well.
Slowly everyone of the newly joined members learnt how to do it. And that helped them greatly in screening the early talents and recruiting the strong masters with good potential.
Soon the gems were all picked, and then it came down to add numbers to each team. William didn't expect this to happen, and when he'd learn about this later on, he'd laugh of happiness.
But one day later, he got a visitor that interrupted his training.
"Sloth? What are you doing here?" William rolled his eyes, didn't even bother to stand as he was about to resume his training, "I'm training now, can you drop later?"
"There is something I heard, something that I thought to come personally and tell you about," Sloth seemed a bit serious, didn't bother to pick a seat and sat opposite to William, crossing his legs as if he was going to train with him.
