Guild Wars

Chapter 951 Rank 7 Pub 1

Misery entered the Rank 7 Guild Hall's Common Room to find AP, Nightwalker, Hades, Shadowheart and Elle seated around a table. The group was drinking while chatting - with the exception of Elle who seemed to be watching something on her profile with interest - and only noticed Misery himself when he got close.

"Boy, don't you have a watch? Don't you see how late you are?" Nightwalker chastised Misery with a grin.

Misery snorted playfully. "Shut the fuck up, old man, you might break your back scolding a youngin like me."

The group burst into laughter before sitting around each other and drinking happily. Misery looked around and noticed that a certain unofficial member of the Golden Savages group was missing, so he asked.

"Where's Sienna?"

"Oh, that drunkard girl heard that today was brother Shadow's birthday and decided to make something special for us." Elle perked up and responded after canceling whatever she was watching.

"Don't forget love, it's your birthday too." Shadowheart pointed out with a smile.

This made Misery confused as he looked between the two of them. "What the fuck, don't tell me that you two are long-lost twins or something?"

Misery regretted asking this question, for he feared the answer greatly. Shadowheart and Elle froze, then shared a look. Then they burst into uproarious laughter!

"Bwahaha, Misery, you've been scarred by your two brats, huh? Don't worry, Elle and I are legit, and the same birthdate is more of a fate related thing than anything scandalous." Shadowheart explained.

Misery blushed and scratched the back of his head. "Well… that's good, that's good. I was scared for a second."

Elle became curious. "What would you have done if we had turned out to be related?"

Hearing this, the others also became curious as to what Misery would say. The man himself sighed and took a sip of his drink weakly, then gazed deeply into his cup.

"The same thing I do for my two brats. I would have continued to wholeheartedly support and protect your relationship, yet doubled my drinking and alcohol intake to pay for your sins."

Elle and Shadowheart were touched by this. Shadow patted Misery on the back and nodded without saying anything.

Hades kicked his feet up onto the table and spoke casually. "Man, I can't wait for the Second Lady Boss to come back. I really want to see what the underwater world of Boundless is like."

AP, who had been drinking quietly, nodded. "The Vault of the Deep, right? It will be our first time collectively doing a Unique Quest with Draco and the two Lady Bosses."

Elle, who was seated casually, became amused. "Why do you fellows talk about Draco so casually, but refer to Eva and Shuangtian as if they're kingpins?"

The men shared a look and Nightwalker laughed. "Well, that's because Draco is a bastard deserving who deserves no flattery, otherwise it would go to his shameless head and make you cough blood."

Elle pondered and nodded. "That's fair."

Hades also chipped in. "Besides, he's casual and doesn't care about such things, but who dares to refer to Eva casually even if she has mellowed compared to before?"

Elle had a strange expression. "Right, I heard that she was absolutely cold and cruel before we came, and the current her is almost like another person."

Misery and AP shared a look and smirked. "We normally refer to Draco casually because he is a soul of similar handsomeness to us. Such brotherhood cannot be formalized too much, hehe."

Elle's lips twitched. Right, these two hooligans definitely had an affinity with the chief hooligan, Draco. As such, it was not too outrageous for them to treat him casually.

Elle then glanced at Shadowheart who was smiling with interest. "And what about you?"

Shadowheart took a sip of his drink and remained silent for a short while before sharing his thoughts.

"It's mostly okay to disrespect a man like this, and it's even possible to become friends after if things play out well. However, if you disrespect a man's wife, you're just asking for things to turn into a life and death feud with no hope of a truce."

The other men nodded, while Elle shook her head and rolled her eyes. So these fellows were casual with Draco because he was a fellow man, but didn't dare to even play with his wives because the slightest disrespect meant fighting? How did that make sense?

"Right, Sienna should be done by now. Let's head over to the pub." AP stated with a smile.

Misery's eyebrows rose. "The construction is finally done?"

Shadowheart nodded as he rose to his feet. "Just yesterday. Today's going to be our grand opening, so Sienna's been working hard on making something special for the occasion."

The group got up and followed him out of the Rank 7 Guild Hall. They used the Portal Center to return to Vita Kingdom, and then traveled to the area where their pub was located and marveled at the sight and size of it.

Rather than something small, it was almost as big as the Rank 7 Shopping Mall, and that wasn't all.

Apart from the embossed sign of 'VALHALLA' on the frame which was the name they had agreed on for their pub, the door itself was a large double door with one side being carved with vikings and the other side were a group of army men firing LMGs at the opposite side.

Shadowheart led the group within, and Misery and co were shocked to find that the entire inside of the Rank 7 Pub was a mini small world, which was one grade higher than a super mini small world.>

For one, the ambient energy here contained traces of Aetheric Energy just like outside, so one could use it in a variety of ways while they were relaxedly drinking or chatting.

From the entrance to the bar, there were many seating areas for people to relax, and the chairs looked comfortable while the tables were wide enough for people to even place weapons down.

Just looking at it all screamed luxury from the paddings used, the type pf paint and the luxurious lighting above, which involved chandeliers and even mana-charged braziers!

What shocked the group the most were the private VIP rooms off to the side. Each and every one led to its own super mini small world, where the VIP clients could arrange their own environment using Worldly Energy to suit their taste or needs.

There were almost 50 of these private rooms just on the first floor!

Tsk, no wonder this whole thing cost over 300 million platinum! In comparison, the Rank 7 Guild Hall of Cario City had practically been a steal at a mere 100k platinum back then.

Same with the Rank 7 Mall, both only had one super mini small world at the top and the rest of the facilities were Rank 7, but this place was just…!

Shadowheart laughed. "This is just the first floor. The second floor has more private rooms, a dance floor and a lot of rooms for renting since we made it like a tavern."

Shadowheart then pointed his staff towards the back of the bar. "Come and look at our wine and brew display at the bar."

He led them to the bar which was large, and the cabinets behind had hundreds of different types of bottles, but once the group started inspecting them, their faces changed greatly.

They were almost all at the Divine-tier with the lowest being Pseudo-Divine!

Even Misery could not help but gulp with a pale face. One should know that despite his riches as a core member, he only ever bought Rare brews and sometimes treated himself to Epic alcohol. He never drank Legendary or Divine ones, despite having some in his possession, saving those for truly special occasions.

Yet here, they were the basic tier of brew one could order. If this was the case, then just how much would a single shot be, and how could people afford it?

Were they building this thing just to look cool and drink themselves to death alone?

Seeing his expression, Shadowheart smiled. "Not everyone is like you, AP, Night and Hades you bunch of freaks. Do you think a normal person can stomach Divine alcohol and live? We'll dilute it hundreds of thousands of times with other sweeter and softer brews on the menu and then serve them, so one Divine bottle will end up serving thousands of customers, which would bring the exorbitant price down to slightly expensive."

AP nodded and patted Misery on the back. "Slightly expensive is fine. No one who enters a fucking Rank 7 pub is going to expect to buy cheap shit, and they certainly wouldn't want to taste cheap shit."

Misery agreed with this, while Hades looked up. "I sense a lot of lifeforms high above. Do we already have guests on the second floor?"

Shadowheart shook his head. "Not guests, but staff. The third floor has the strip club and pseudo-brothel we planned to open, Eamnha. The entire floor is dedicated to it, and we have already screened and invited some of the best female creatures in the entire Main Plane to begin training for their work."

Shadowheart glanced at Elle. "We relied on Elle to source them out, because her taste as a woman was more direct than us fellows."

Elle smiled. "I chose the best of all species and races, and it took me quite some time to find them. Convincing them to come was easy though, once they heard that they would get to live and work in Vita Kingdom most of them were ready to agree to come for free."

"Mind you, some of these ladies are princesses, queens and noble daughters. One of them was even a totemic god of a race, a spider woman whose human form is amazing."

Elle immediately wore a strange expression. "That wasn't even the killer part. When I proposed this to them, I thought their families would vehemently disagree, but who knew that even their royal or noble fathers would look green with envy, as if they wished they could come here and twerk their butts themselves? I couldn't believe it!"

The group burst into laughter at that, and while everyone was locked in mirth, Misery swiped one Divine bottle at lightspeed.

"As for their remuneration, naturally I couldn't agree to let them work for free. In fact, they get paid enough that our only worry will have to be that they don't kill our customers with their enthusiasm to please." Elle joked.

Everyone gave her a thumbs up for her handwork, and Shadowheart led them through the bar to the brewery at the back. In there, the group saw mists of energy floating about, Worldly, Aetheric and shockingly, Divine!

This dumbfounded the group, as they knew how rare and scarce Divine Energy was down here, but there was so much of it. They looked over and saw that the swirling energies were being collected and merged into various brewing vats and filters that were top of the line, and even radiated a sense of magical supremacy.

In control of this equipment was Sienna who was wearing some sort of insulation equipment, which only displayed her eyes through some visors. It was clear that she took her job seriously, for she didn't even want to contaminate the brew with her aura.

Seeing this, the Golden Savages quietly shared a look and went back outside.

"How long has she been in there?" Hades couldn't help but ask.

"For about 4 weeks, give or take." Shadowheart replied with a shake of his head.

Damn!

"And where did she get all that Divine Energy from?" Nightwalker asked with furrowed brows.

"She is the Avatar of a True God after all, and Sienna herself is wealthy from her own master's heritage and her sale of Divine booze to other Gods, so the energy is provided by her through burning her Divine Crystal stock." Shadowheart answered while glancing back at the brewery.

The other members of the Golden Savages could only remain silent at that.
