They only got the quests a few moments ago, and yet it appeared that Zoe could now form a guild. Maybe there were requirements that only Zoe completed that allowed her to create one? Though, if that was the case, then, shouldn’t the system tell them the requirements like it did with how they were supposed to make their planet officially part of the multiverse?
Zoe nodded upon Hazel’s question. “Yes. According to Quest, I made all of the prerequisites to officially form a guild.”
“How do you know about the prerequisites?” She became curious as to how Zoe knew the answers and yet Hazel didn’t. Or was she just not looking hard enough?
“If you mentally pull up the Guild quest and focus on it, there will be another panel that appears and tells you the conditions.”
Hazel nearly palmed her face in annoyance. So, she wasn’t looking hard enough, then. That was certainly one way to find out, to say the least.
Mentally kicking herself, Hazel then tried to summon the Guild Quest to check out the requirements. When she did and focused intently on the screen, a new panel materialized soon after.
[Requirements to create a Guild:
-
Player must be over level 20.
-
Player must lead a group of more than ten people.
-
Player must possess a certain amount of territory to create their guild.
She stared at the conditions for a moment, taking in each one to fully understand how a guild was created. So far, all three requirements were pretty straightforward. You had to be at a certain level along with commanding a certain number of players while owning a bit of land to stake your guild on.
And all three conditions were reasonable. A guild needed a strong leader, a certain amount of members, and land for it to be properly established. Which was why Zoe had met all of them with flying colors. At the moment, Hazel only completed the first condition since she was currently Level 23. If she wanted to create her own guild, she would need to lead more than ten people and own a piece of land like the Jetport.
Sadly, she possessed neither, and honestly, didn’t plan to do it any time soon. While the idea of creating a guild sounded fun, she also knew that it was a complete hassle, since she would have to manage the guild and her members while also trying to make her group the Global guild that represents their world.
Of course, she also didn’t plan to join a guild either. Not yet at least. Even when Zoe formed her guild, Hazel wasn’t going to immediately join her. She had a few things to deal with and had to take care of those first before making any serious decisions regarding her status with a guild.

“So, since you met all of the requirements, how will you form the guild?” Chegyaeyi asked curiously.
“Well, apparently, all I need to do is choose the form a guild option and then select what you want to call your guild.”
“It’s that easy?” Hazel tilted her head to the side.
Zoe nodded. “It would seem so. I’m currently figuring out what kind of name I wish to call the guild.”
“I suggested The White Knight Guild,” Kane chimed in, telling them his idea.
“While I suggested Righteous Hope Guild,” Anais added.
Hazel mused over the names. Having the right name for their guild was certainly important. It was what was going to define the group and what they stood for. Though, from what Hazel had heard right now, neither name was...all that good.
She could tell that Kane and Anais were using Zoe to base their guild. Not only did they see her as a heroic knight in shining armor but also a symbol of hope since she not only saved them but was also leading them toward salvation. The problem was that their name suggestions were way over the top.
While having a name was crucial for the development of the guild, it didn’t have to be something extravagant or imposing. If anything, having a simple name was much better. A simple name that still represented the guild in a way that White Knight or Righteous Hope could never do.
Watching Kane and Anais argue over their names while Zoe struggled to come up with one herself, Hazel suddenly got an idea for a guild name that fit their group.
“How about The Valiant Guild?”
Hearing this, Zoe and the others turned in Hazel’s direction with a mixture of confusion and surprise in their expressions.
Hazel hesitated to continue due to the various and pressing stares directed at her but managed to do so regardless.
“Well, Knights are supposed to be brave and heroic, and since Zoe is a knight, she'd obviously fit those descriptions, especially after seeing her in action. So, wouldn’t Valiant be the perfect name?”
While it was a stretch, Hazel thought the name suited the concept of their group. They were brave players who not only protect the people under their watch, but also fight against those that wish to destroy or enslave them. And their previous battle with the Orcs clearly displayed their bravery and valor.
While not all of them were Knights like Zoe, they were still brave and heroic, which is why the term Valiant could still apply to them. If anything, it showed that you didn’t need to become a Knight to represent the term.
Zoe, Kane, and Anais took a moment to consider Hazel’s idea. They thoughtfully mused over it like a bunch of scientists in a Think Tank. Then, all three turned and faced one another before nodding their heads in unison, as if making their final decision.
“Valiant certainly sounds good,” Anais stated.
“Yeah,” Kane nodded. “It’s certainly a lot better and simpler than our names.”
“Then I guess the decision has been made,” Zoe declared with a smile. “As of now, the name of our Guild will be Valiant.”
Upon making this declaration, Hazel suddenly felt a shift in the atmosphere as if something enveloped her surroundings. If she had to put it in words, it felt like she just passed through a thin membrane barrier and everything now felt foreign and strange...like she didn’t belong there.
Just then, a new panel materialized before her very eyes.
[You are within the Territory of the Valiant Guild! All non-Guild Members will be seen as a Guest until they either leave or join the guild! Upon Joining the guild, Players will receive certain benefits that it possesses with its current rank.]
Hazel creased her brows skeptically. So, she was currently within the Valiant Guild’s territory. That meant that this applied to other guilds as well. And Hazel knew what that meant...this battle of the guilds was going to be turf war as well.
She could already tell what kinds of headaches she’d be dealing with once she went deeper into Portland. The amount of territory she’d accidentally step into and also alert the other members of the guild.
Hazel grasped her head while letting out a heavy sigh. What a pain in the ass...
