After getting the soul stone of mother Yeti he started to visit many different guilds regularly and formed an alliance with them.
The process was slow and exhausting, filled with negotiations, veiled threats, and carefully worded promises. Jun understood that power was not seized overnight—it was constructed, piece by piece, through influence and leverage.
Inside the guild headquarters, Cazi stood before Jun with a stack of reports in her hands.
"Guild master, Night Sky Guild agreed to sell themselves to us. But there are conflicts related to this," Cazi reported, her tone precise and professional.
Jun leaned back in his chair, his fingers tapping lightly against the armrest.
"Conflicts are nothing more than one or two days of pointless talks," he replied calmly. "Ignore that part. How's Novia doing?"
"She is currently trying to make a sword using dragon bone," Cazi said.
"She has also requested funds. She wants to travel around the world."
Jun's expression darkened slightly.
"She still believes that Shiddharth is alive somewhere," Cazi continued softly.
Jun closed his eyes for a moment, frustration surfacing. This is the worst possible timing. The guild war was approaching fast, and Novia's strength would be indispensable. Letting her leave now could ruin everything he had built.
"What should I do now…?" he muttered under his breath, rubbing his temples.
After a long pause, he opened his eyes.
"Try to delay her as much as possible. I'll complete my work soon."
With that decision made, Jun stood up, grabbed his coat from the sofa, and walked out of the house, the weight of leadership pressing heavily on his shoulders.
Novia's Smithy
The heat inside the smithy was unbearable. Sparks flew as Novia hammered molten metal, her movements mechanical yet precise. Dragon bone fragments glowed faintly as they merged with the blade.
"Yes… just like before," she whispered to herself. "It will be as powerful as the Dragon Sword."
Her hands trembled slightly from exhaustion. She hadn't rested properly in three days. Dark circles framed her eyes, but she ignored the pain.
The door creaked open.
"Aren't you working too much?" Jun's voice came from behind her. "Don't strain yourself."
She turned slightly, surprised.
"Let's go and have some coffee," he suggested gently.
She hesitated, staring at the unfinished blade. After a moment, she nodded, setting her tools aside. Together, they walked to a nearby inn.
Inside the inn, the atmosphere was calm. Jun ate quietly before speaking.
"I heard you want to travel around," he said casually.
"Yes," Novia replied without hesitation. "I think he is still alive somewhere."
Jun paused.
"You might be right. But if that's true, why hasn't he come looking for us? Our name has spread through many worlds."
She clenched her fists.
"If he really cared, he wouldn't have made that wish," Jun continued carefully.
"I don't believe that," Novia replied firmly. "I saw his eyes. They weren't the eyes of someone greedy for power."
"Then why is he on the wanted list?" Jun asked.
"He must have stolen something from a CREATOR. He's overpowered now—maybe even comparable to them."
"But I still trust him," she said, ending the conversation.
Jun understood. He changed the topic.
"I'm thinking of uniting the guilds. For that, I need your power."
Her eyes flared.
"You were just accusing him of craving power, but you're the one obsessed with it."
"It's not greed," Jun said seriously. "It's survival. I want to protect my people. I need enough power to stop every sword aimed at us."
He leaned forward.
"I'm not asking for much. Just two months. Stay here for two months. After that, you can go find him."
She exhaled slowly.
"I won't kill anyone."
"Neither will we—if possible," Jun agreed. "We'll need manpower once united."
Later that night, Jun entered a private room in the inn.
"Did you bring it?" the man sitting inside asked.
"Yes." Jun handed over a golden box.
"What about her?" the man asked. "Will she fight?"
"She'll be on our side."
The man smiled darkly.
"Good. This county will be mine. Your guild will become the largest here."
"Prepare for war," he continued, laughing. "Within a week, the greatest guild war of the Rise of East Continent will begin."
Somewhere in a hotel…
"Is this information correct?" a man asked.
"110%," the messenger replied. "The one you're looking for is in the North Continent of Kagasu."
"And he'll help us?"
"That depends on you."
With that, the messenger vanished into the sky.
"With this, I can survive the guild war," the man muttered. "No point fighting between two bulls."
He picked up a picture of his family. His hands shook.
"Soon… I'll kill Fitenze," he whispered, crushing the photo. His eyes burned red with vengeance.
After a week…..
On one side Jun with his guild members and allies who joined his side for war. And on the other side Boogesh with his guild members and suppyfrom the County's king.
They both looked at each other with lots of hatred, Boogesh was one of the major obstacle he had to face if he wanted to join the guild of this County. Boogesh was not that strong and neither was his guild but as his connection with the County's king was good he acted like he was the king of guild alliance. So to break that legacy and make a new law he had to change many things.
