Rain began to think that Branden's organization was operating as a guild before anything. Since he was famous, it would be easy for his organization to gain clientele. At the same time, if people wanted to cause trouble and blame him for it, they also could use his organization. It was like a double-edged sword. Branden explained all that to Rain and how he should operate all the time while working.

They had to keep their distance from their clients without being considered rude. It was hard to find the balance.

"Most of the people working for me are adults, so you might find yourself having a hard time gaining their trust, but your hard work should do the trick," Branden said, and then they stopped in front of a large building that looked like a rough looking, but modern hotel. "This is our base of operations.

Every morning, someone will put out the work that we have for the day, and everyone can pick them up. First comes, first served. Still, it is better to pick the jobs that suit your skills and try to work with others as much as possible."

The more he heard about it, the more Rain confirmed that the organization was working like a guild. He imagined that such a thing should be common in that world, but it wasn't for some reason. Probably because guilds are supposed to be organizations where people with no physical links can work together toward the same goal and learn secrets from others.

That world heavily favored nepotism, after all, so benefiting the family was a matter of fact.

Branden and Rain entered the building, and the entrance was exactly like a guild that also looked like a tavern. He felt like laughing. The entrance of the place was an impressive sight to behold. A large, ornate door made of rich mahogany wood greeted visitors, standing tall and proud as a symbol of strength and unity.

Etched into the wood were intricate patterns and designs that seemed to tell a story of the organization's history and accomplishments.

Above the door, a majestic crest representing the place emblem was mounted, showcasing a symbol of power, unity, and purpose. The emblem was a combination of various elements, each representing the different strengths and skills of the members.

The place wasn't that full since it was mid-afternoon, and most people were working right now, but some people were drinking and chatting there. They quickly got up and saluted Branden, but he told them to relax since he was just paying a quick visit.

In the end, they stopped at the counter where a woman was writing some things in a book. On the side, Rain could see a board with the jobs available. Most of the jobs there were simple ones and that could be done every day. Rain wasn't surprised when he saw that Lotto's name was there. Apparently, he wanted someone to help him with cleaning his shop and helping him with other chores.

Rain could pick that up now and then to relay information.

"It is good to see you here, boss," The receptionist said. "Is he a new member? He is probably the youngest you have brought so far."

The receptionist had an enchanting and striking appearance; she possessed a captivating beauty and grace. Her deep, expressive eyes sparkled with intelligence and warmth, drawing people in with just a glance.

Her silky, dark hair cascaded in elegant waves around her shoulders, framing her flawless, radiant complexion. With a confident and welcoming smile, she effortlessly charmed everyone who approached the reception desk.

Dressed in a stylish and sophisticated outfit, she exuded an air of elegance and poise. Her fashion sense was impeccable, and every detail of her attire seemed carefully chosen to enhance her natural beauty.

"That is right. I went to recruit him the other day; his name is Rain," Branden said. "That being said, he isn't the type that would like to receive special treatment for this, so treat him like everyone else. Please help him learn how the organization works in my stead. I left to just stretch my legs, but it is time to return."

"Leave it to me and have a good day," the receptionist said.

Branden nodded and then turned to leave after saying goodbye to the people in the place. Rain could see that the people around were a bit rough-looking, men and women of all ages. Some also had scars from battles, so they knew how to handle themselves in a fight.

"It is nice to meet you; my name is Karla," The receptionist said with a large smile on her face. "You must be quite someone to be recruited directly by the boss."

"Not really," Rain said.

"Humble, I see," Karla said. "Anyway, since you are new here, I take it that you want to sleep here? The new members stay here for a while, but they eventually move when they want some privacy. Still, I would recommend staying here for a few months at least to learn everything about the organization."

"I will do that then," Rain said, pleased that he could save some coins from the inn.

Karla guided Rain through the building and showed him where he could find the toilets, where he could find the rooms, and also gave him the keys to one of them. She told him that things tend to get noisy at night, but he should try to get to sleep earlier to find most of the jobs early in the morning as well.
