"Now, there are a few more things to take care of."
Karliana said to him while he was scratching Nefertari behind her ears.
"Now that you are an official member of the Hall of Kadath, and even though you have not been announced formally as a Holy Son, you need to be wary of potential attacks from our competitors."
She sounded serious, and Samiel could guess whom she was talking about.
"So basically anyone affiliated with or member of Calamity Church, Devil Cults, Daemon Cults, Demon Tribes, Devil Houses and other unscrupulous individuals, that are basically a competition of the Hall of Kadath in the strife for the souls."
He answered, to which Karliana nodded in satisfaction, seeing that he was educated and smart enough to guess the things she wanted to say to him.
"Indeed. In regard to Devil Cults and Daemon Cults, they are on the top of the lists together with Demon Tribes and Devil Houses. In regard to Calamity Church, while they don't fight too much for souls, they are spreading their Faith in a way that clashes with our interests. Also, from all of these, the Calamity Church is the strongest of them and often fights with the Hall of Kadath... especially now when that stupid big red lizard killed one of their High Priests in the Midnight World... what trouble... so while not problem for us, it will be one for you, so sooner or alter, you will have to deal with people from the Calamity Church that will want to kill you on a sigh."
,m Samiel swore he almost got a headache from hearing her monologue and how much trouble was going on. He was aware that the protection he would enjoy from the Hall of Kadath would be applied only to repel Legandries and maybe Gold-Tiers who were close to the Legendary Level.
Rest is a so-called free game.
He didn't really fear Devil Cults and Daemon Cults; those were just a bunch of worshippers of peculiar Daemon or Devil; they were not unified and often fought among each other, which was pretty common.
Basically, if their targets of worship were enemies to death, then logically, their worshippers would do the same. And same, he didn't really fear Devil Houses who were living in the Baator, as they were direct descendants of the Devils.
Though Demon Tribes were more problematic as they were descendent of Daemons and lived in the Tower or all around the Cosmos, some of the Demon Tribes long ago even forgot that they were descended from the Daemon.
So basically, all four factions were either too caught in infighting or couldn't even be called factions in the true sense because every Cult or Tribe was a separate entity that created alliances between each other or fought to the death against each other.
Yvraine told Samiel about the Calamity Chruch, which worshipped the Evil Gods.
The Evil Gods were Gods who had a particular path of Godhood that depended on the combination of Faith with Negative Emotions that were created by their worshippers by spreading carnage, pain, and despair among the mortals.
Calamity Church was a very strong faction; they often lurked in the shadows and were a pain in the ass to deal with, not to mention they had plenty of Legendaries too. Not to mention they were enemies of the Hall of Kadath.
"But don't worry, nobody at the Legendary Level would are to come after you from these factions... unless you walk straight to their territory and do something stupid... but even then, it is hard to say what Hall Master would do."
She stated that Samiel was tempted to try if he would be killed or captured or whatever; testing the waves and boundaries of how much others feared the Hall of Kadath sounded pretty amusing.
"Now onto the next thing... if you will have a chance, go and register yourself within the Guild. You would find there plenty of unique Mission with generous rewards... not to mention some of them are really peculiar, especially those for the Legendary Level Professionals."
She explained, and Samiel could swear that this really seemed like a paid propagation. Still, it caught his interest at the same time because he heard about the Guild and knew it was one of the strongest Gates.
"The Guild? Care to explain further."
He asked as he was intrigued hearing about it.
"It is basically a high-end mercenary organization, where you can find missions from anywhere in the Cosmos or Tower. Many of them are very rewarding, but at the same time, missions in the Guild are one of a special kind; all of them have the common thing, and that is their impossible seeming competition possibility. The Guild has branches all around the Cosmos and Tower, but finding the Branch is a hard thing to do, for at least those who don't know how to search."
So basically, suicide missions that normal mercenary organizations or adventure guilds or other organizations on the Cosmos level won't accept or weren't able to complete for a long time, are gathered here.
"Where is the closest branch?"
He asked because he knew that she wouldn't mention the Guild if she was not aware of a branch of it very close to their current location.
"On the 8th Floor."
That was not that far from the 3rd Floor, as he climbed the Floors a bit faster and soon registered at the Guild, of course, under the conditions he fulfilled their requirements for the registration. Contrary to other similar organizations, The Guild had a very strict acceptance policy, where they accepted only the best of the best and most unique individuals across the entirety of the Cosmos.
"I will go and look for it when I arrive there."
Samiel stated; that after a short while when Nefertari jumped down from his knees where she had been lying till now and went to search for something to eat. She was a small glutton that could keep eating most of the day, but she never got fat.
"Anything else you want to ask about before we end this meeting so I can give you the introduction booklet and finally go home?"
She asked as Samiel looked at her incredulously.
"You have an introduction booklet?"
Now, this sounded weird, a religious organization worshipping Outer Gods and carrying out atrocities here and there had an introduction booklet for the new members?
"Yes, one of the Bishops created it after thinking it was funny, so here were are... but I must admit that they are pretty useful and contain the basic information about the Hall and various things, such as rights and duties of average members, things about the mission and practically everything... that is why I am not bothering to explain the things to you in detail as all of them are already in the booklet."
She said while she took out a small booklet from her Dimensional Storage and passed it to him. It was a relatively thin book, with only something around 100 pages in it, and surprisingly contained a lot of images.
"Chapter 17: How to torture your sacrifices, so they withstand a lot of torture and not die! + images."
He read out of loud... and though this was nice, at least someone bothered to write a comprehensive manual on how to be a proper worshipper of the Outer Gods, similar to what Samiel was doing.
Writing the Guide on how to be an Upstanding Eldritch Creature.
"You can read that book later; now we still have something to go through. When you reach the 5th Floor, there is a high possibility that Hall Master Menuyhutt will personally visit you, and also, this is a welcoming gift from the Hall."
She said two crucial pieces of information as she passed him a Dimensional Ring filled with countless Mana Crystals, all of them were of Steel-Tier to Bronze-Tier and ranged from tens of thousands. Samiel didn't really count all of the Mana Crystals, but something told him that they would not really last him long, but it should be enough to reach later stages of the Bronze-Tier.
He just secretly lamented at the outrageous amount of resources he needed to advance just by one level. Naturally, this didn't escape Karliana's attention, as she could approximately guess what he was thinking.
And about the first information, he was thrilled in a certain sense, as he wondered what Hall Master Menuhyutt wanted from him this soon. In the end, despite his glorious heritage and bloodline in the eyes of the Hall of Kadath, he was still a Steel-Tier ant, nothing more and nothing else.
At the same time prospect of meeting the strongest entity under the Transcendent Level terrified and excited him at the same time. Maybe he could learn something from him to enhance his strength or anything.
"Don't worry... in the higher Floors; it would be easier to obtain resources for you to advance. And this is a problem that all specimens of the Superior Species have; for me, I need an extraordinary amount of peak Legendary Level blood to advance even by a single level."
Said Karliana, as Samiel just sighed in acceptance.
"What is that noise?"
His ears perked up as he heard some notice as if somebody was fighting in the halls, and he recognized one of two voices that were shouting at each other, as one of them belonged to Yvraine. In comparison, another one was a female one that Samiel didn't recognize.
And at the same time, Cardinal Karliana had a hideous expression on her face.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
