A few hours later.
After finishing all their affairs, Ark brought the new members back. Showing their new residence and assigning tasks to them. The young man then went to the headquarters with a relaxed expression on his face.
"You look happy, Ark."
Jay came to Ark with a smile on his face. Looking at the eyes behind the mask, he knew that his best friend was in a good mood.
"Not really." Ark shook his head.
"By the way, why don't you just accept them right away? Aren't they good seeds?"
"Remember the rules, Jay."
"You mean?"
"Entering one or two people may not be a problem. But if we accept more people at once, everything will become even more chaotic.
Maybe nothing will happen now. Once the information is spread out, two weeks later everything will go awry. Many people want to register through a special/direct route. We can't accept everything.
The reason why we do not accept excessive numbers of members is not because we cannot support them. We could have done it, but it would have messed with the pattern.
I want the Sword of Sufferings to go with certainty. I don't want to create a loophole where something as bad as betrayal can happen. Moreover, I also have to make sure that all the members are under control.
You could say, even if they go crazy and try to stage a coup, I have nothing to fear from them.
Instead, I could easily suppress and remove them. You could say, I gave them strength, so I should have absolute strength to take it back if needed."
Hearing Ark's explanation, Jay was shocked. But when he realized that it was his best friend, the man shrugged. It seemed that it did not care about Ark's decision as it already trusted the young man completely.
"Yes. I know you'll definitely try your best." Jay grinned. "By the way, when will I be assigned out of the territory?"
"You want to go for a walk?"
"Yes. It's too boring to stay in this area constantly. Also ... can't you move Mona to Scarlet Knight? Why did you assign him to Violet Guardian?"
Jay stared at Ark with a hateful expression. Her best friend clearly knows her relationship with Mona, but actually chooses to separate them.
"Don't ask me that, Jay. Even when Mona was apart, your work was still a mess. If I bring you together, you'll add to my work."
"Of course I'll definitely be more passionate about working!" jay was firm.
"Yes, yes, yes .. You will be busy working in the room."
"I—"
"We don't have to talk about this, Jay."
"alright. Then I have another request."
"What's wrong?" ask Ark.
"I want a house. More precisely, I want each core member to get one house."
Jay looked at Ark with a stern face. He took a deep breath before continuing.
"Not everyone is a straight man like you who is always focused on the task, Ark. We need privacy too."
"I don't care if you make a sound at night a lot." Ark said in a monotone tone.
"That's why I said I needed privacy!"
"Can't." Ark shook his head. "It's not safe. If there are too many houses to take care of, the house will not be safe. There might be people who would infiltrate, burglary, or something like that."
"You really intend to keep an eye on all of us?" jay said with an expression of disbelief.
"..."
Looking at the silent Ark, Jay felt depressed. But the man still insisted on saying, "At least give us enough privacy."
"alright. I'll give it to the nuclear family," replied Ark who couldn't stand it.
"Good!"
"But not every family has one home." Ark interrupted immediately. "The average house here has three floors. Dining room, kitchen, and so on on the first floor. So what I'm going to give you is one floor. It's on the second or third floor."
"You mean?"
"I chose that house for you." Ark pointed at the random house. "First floor will be used together. The 3rd floor will be used for your family. The second floor will belong to the Old Franky and Lisa families."
"Every house is huge. One floor is actually able to accommodate dozens of people, maybe more than 20 people if used as a dormitory. A few mere people .. is more than enough."
"Ughh! Understood."
After getting approval, Jay finally gave up. If he was too pushy, it was likely that the young man would not even let them benefit. Become more stubborn than ever.
That night, Ark gathered all the core members. After that, he began to divide the existing building. In addition, the young man also moved the people around the headquarters to another house. He wanted the central area of the headquarters to be the gathering area of core members.
Once determined, everything became like this.
In the previous main headquarters, it would be the Ark's home.
The house to his left, Jay lives on the third floor along with Mona. On the second floor, Saito lives with Nami.
The house to his right, Old Franky and Lisa live on the third floor. Stein and Eva live on the second floor.
To the left of Jay and Saito's house, it will be Darin's residence. The young man lived on the third floor along with Shani, and Yonas.
Kurona, Shirona, and Stacy insist on staying at the main headquarters. So Ark let them stay on the second floor. As for Natasha, Abigail, Nathan, and Nala. So Ark also told them to stay on the second floor.
You could say, in addition to some people who want to have a family or indeed have relatives, the rest still want to stay at the main headquarters. However, there was one thing that shocked Ark.
"I want to make a wish, Sir!" vadim.
Everyone stared at Vadim with a complicated expression. Most of them had hated him for treason, but it turned out to carry a heavy burden alone.
"Oh? You actually refuse a reward - a good chance to level three early and ask for something else instead.
Really, I'm really wondering what you're really asking for, Vadim."
Ark stared at Vadim with a cold gaze, making the man instantly shiver. Still gritting his teeth and saying.
"I want to be given the opportunity to recruit people, Sir!"
"Recruiting? Is there anyone you think is talented so you want to accept it?"
Ark sipped his tea with a relaxed expression. A little surprised because Vadim seemed to want to accept the disciple.
"I would like to receive the 20 women who have accompanied me, Sir!" vadim said firmly.
Hearing that, Ark immediately choked on the hot tea.
"OHAW! UHUK!" Ark couldn't help but cough. He then looked towards Vadim with an astonished expression. "Try to say it clearly, Vadim. What do you want?"
"Twenty women who accompanied me while on a secret mission. I want to recruit them!"
"You said you wanted to take responsibility?"
"YES!" Vadim.
"Will they accept it?"
"I've spoken to them after the mission is over, sir. I said I would try to recruit them.
Other than being beautiful, those women might not have any special talent in craft or combat. But I'm sure, as long as they're taught, it's not impossible to do it."
"..."
Everyone in the room breathed in the cold air. They did not expect that Vadim had such an idea. Those people glanced towards the Ark. Waiting for the young man's response.
"If they want to join without coercion and follow the rules, then so be it. You can take them.
Make sure to train them well. If anyone makes a problem. I will not only punish them, but also you."
"THANK YOU, SIR!!!" yell sincerely Vadim.
Just then, the expressions of his people instantly turned stagnant. They stared at Ark with an expression of disbelief.
Meanwhile, Jay looked at Vadim with a astonished face. His eyes are even red. He thought that Ark being surrounded by some pretty girls had gone overboard. He really did not expect ...
It turned out that the inconspicuous man was already the Harem King trying to bring home his 20 women!
It really made her feel envious and jealous!
