Leo can't help smiling mischievously after seeing that he had achieved the desired reactions that he wanted from everyone.
Now, it's time for the main show...
"First and foremost, I really appreciate that all of you here had decided to join the Mischievous Lion Guild," Leo began speaking again. He continued, "But I know that majority of you here had known long beforehand that we won't be staying in the Emerald Tree Kingdom for long,"
"I don't really mind telling all of you here that base on our plan, we would only be staying here for more or less at the end of the Emerald Elven Battle Competition, and after that, we will then continue with our journey to the Moon Werewolf Kingdom and so on and so forth until we finally reach the Horizon Empire," Leo didn't bother hiding the final destination of the Mischievous Lion Guild.
After saying that, Leo purposely paused to listen to what everyone was going to say.
"Just like what I've heard, the Mischievous Lion Guild indeed wouldn't stay in the Emerald Tree Kingdom for long,"
"Well, I only joined to benefit from them while they are still here. After all, they are now recognized as one of the new rising powerful Guild in the Emerald Tree Kingdom,"
"Same, I only joined them to benefit, and once they leave, I will also leave the Mischievous Lion Guild and join other Guild. I'm guessing that by that time my value would be high for the Guilds in the Emerald Tree Kingdom,"
"As for me, I joined because I can see the potential of the Mischievous Lion Guild. I'm certain that they will become a well-known Guild in the future. So, it's an advantage for me to join them while they still haven't achieved that yet,"
"I'm with you in that part. As one of the earlier batch of members that joined the Mischievous Lion Guild, there's no doubt that I will have a high position in the Guild in the future. I will stay here as long as they can help me grow to become more powerful and reach greater heights,"
Just from the conversation he had heard alone, he could already guess that everyone is fairly divided into two different groups; one would leave once the Mischievous Lion Guild leaves the Emerald Tree Kingdom, while the others would follow the Mischievous Lion Guild as long as there is value staying in the Guild.
As of now, there is still no loyalty to be found from any of these new members, which is honestly something that he could already expect, especially considering that they are still new and doesn't have any deep feelings yet about the Mischievous Lion Guild aside from what benefits they could get by joining the Guild.
No worries though, because that is not that difficult of a problem to solve...
"And that's why I also know that some of you here only joined the Mischievous Lion Guild to benefit from us while we are still here in the Emerald Tree Kingdom," Leo openly revealed that he knew about some of the new member's thought.
Those members who were exactly thinking the same thing as what Guild Leader Loki has mentioned immediately felt ashamed of their action. A few of them can't even help thinking of leaving after getting caught red-handed.
As for those who weren't thinking of that, they all let out loud laughter and cheers to express their support to Guild Leader Loki for being so open.
"Quite," Leo raised his hand to silence everyone. As soon as there were no voices to be heard anymore, he continued, "Even though I hate saying this, but honestly, I'm okay with you using the Mischievous Lion Guild to benefit yourselves. You are just being smart and wise, as you are able to think of what is good for yourselves. So, there is no need to feel ashamed of your own actions. Almost all of us here are clearly aware of the fact that a majority of the people who choose to walk in the path of Magic desires to become stronger, even including me and everyone who's already members of the Mischievous Lion Guild,"
"Still, I can't help myself for feeling displeased with your action," Leo's expression suddenly darkened as he continued, "So, I would like all of you to separate into three different groups in front of me. The first group would be those people that want to stay and come with us once we leave the Emerald Tree Kingdom. The second group would be those people that aren't sure yet whether to stay or not. While the third group would be those people that want to benefit from the Mischievous Lion Guild while we are still here,"
"Remember, I want all of you to be honest with your thoughts and what your choices would be. No worries though, because I will not be giving any bias to any of the groups. All of you would still be assigned to the five existing teams in the Mischievous Lion Guild and would be fighting side by side together and could receive a fair amount of resources depending on your own contributions to the Mischievous Lion Guild,"
The reason why Leo had only mentioned 5 teams despite already having 7 teams is because the Frost Lion team and Ghost Lion team were both considered as special teams of the Mischievous Lion Guild. The former would only accept members with affinity to Ice Element, while the latter would only accept members with the affinity to Dark Element. And it's because of this why not just anyone could choose to join them.
"To assure you of that, me and all of the Executives of the Mischievous Lion will swear an Oath in front of you," Leo said as he motioned for Cassandra and the others to step forward and swear an Oath to prove his claim.
In the next moment, Leo and all of the Executives of the Mischievous Lion started swearing the Oath.
"We all solemnly swear an oath that we will not give any bias to all the new members of the Mischievous Lion Guild and would give them a fair amount of resources depending on how much they contributed to the Mischievous Lion Guild," Leo and all of the Executives of the Mischievous Lion Guild quickly finished swearing the Oath.
Whoooosh! Whoooosh! Whoooosh!
Everyone can't help feeling a bit shocked after seeing the quick action of Guild Leader Loki and all of the Executives of the Mischievous Lion Guild. At first, they really thought that Guild Leader Loki was only saying that for the sake of persuading a few of them to be honest in their thoughts and choice.
They were already very used to this because almost all the Guilds they have encountered in the past would use different kinds of tricks, schemes, or methods in order for them to know which members of their Guild is worthy of them investing most of their resources.
Never did they expect that Guild Leader Loki and all of the Executives of the Mischievous Lion Guild is actually different. Not only that, they didn't even hesitate to prove their words by swearing an Oath to the Mana of the Celestial World.
They are truly unlike the other Guilds they have encountered in the past, as those Guilds were only words with no actual action to prove their sincerity.
"You can choose a group now," Leo motioned his hand to let everyone start choosing a group.
Hearing Guild Leader Loki's words, everyone immediately pulled themselves together as they began choosing a group.
With the assurance of the Oath that Guild Leader Loki and all of the Executives of the Mischievous Lion Guild had sworn, everyone decided to not cause any more trouble to them and just be honest with their thoughts and their choice of the group that they will be joining. After all, if ever Guild Leader Loki or any of the Executives of the Mischievous Lion Guild dare to break their Oath, they will instantly be killed by the Mana of the Celestial World itself.
After ten minutes or so, everyone was now in their respective groups.
At this moment, it was very clear for everyone to see how many people exactly were thinking of staying, not yet sure, and leaving.
There were only one thousand or so people in the first group, six thousand or so in the second group, while the rest were in the third group.
Leo clapped his hand for a few seconds before saying, "Once the day that the Mischievous Lion Guild finally leaves the Emerald Tree Kingdom comes, I will make everyone here choose again which of the three groups they will be choosing. At that time, I will only be bringing the first group with us while the second group and third group would be free to leave the Mischievous Lion Guild,"
"Anyways," Leo went back to the main topic, "I don't really like making a lengthy speech, because it's so troublesome, and not to mention there is also no assurance whether everyone is really listening to me or not. So, I will make it short for all of you here,"
"Welcome everyone to the Mischievous Lion Guild, I hope all of you will have a fantastic Fate," Leo said before finally leaving the stage.
As soon as Leo left, Ethan walked up to the stage to begin assigning each of everyone to each of the five teams of the Mischievous Lion Guild.
