Novas kept silent and argued back.
"Why though ? They are just burdens on you all isn't that right ?" And asked them about their decisions. Meanwhile Elka hearing this got sad as she didn't want to become a burden upon anyone.
Noticing her behaviour Serena comforted her while Zash kept looking at Novas like an idiot.
"You- seriously that's the reason this world has never progressed beyond this time and age as nobody wants to change the system and management and leave filth to be spelt on the road.
Let's guess just imagine the amount of people killed as slaves arbitrarily while many strong one's were left to starve and used as meat shields or exp farms now imagine if they each had never been a slave but workers for your organisation" argued Zash to which Novas was stunned.
"Isn't that still charity work what can the association gain form picking beggers off the ground" asked Nova's Isaac too agreed as if they helped one more would sprout up and demand help and they neither had time or resources to help these many millions of slaves and people as slaves of all kinds and races existed their use was authorized from a long time and such was the mentality of the people.
Upon hearing this Zash was forced to facepalm. Without saving anything he asked
"Is there anything to measure the talent potential of a person ?"
"Uhh yes this crystal is used for aptitude tests if you're too high powered it'll break, it's used to test which attributes they're comfortable with. May I ask why ?" Nova's said while handing Zash the trancelucrnt orb which had all Elemental except special rogue elements in itself and told little Elka as after knowing Elka she informed them about their half elf leniage passed on throughout the decades and knew she was powerful as well was her brother.
The moment Elka touched it she felt a strong connection to wind, fire and every attribute within the orb while the previous two stood out the most whilst every other was on par with a genius's standards Zash knew so as he checked all the people's potentials beforehand but didn't had a device to measure them upon him as such he couldn't prove it he was a bit glad this world at least had this much from throughout the years of degradation.
Meanwhile Novas was shocked with a 8 year's old talent which far surpassed him by leagues but Zash was not over he then took the orb closer to little Frey and gently took his small hand and put it on the orb the instant he did the orb cracked a bit while Frey had a bit of both Angelic and Demonic powers in his possession which countered eachother which stunned everyone speechless except Zash and Serena as this was a legendary aptitude which was rarely seen even dragons agreed on that Sylphia had met a person previously who had the same attributes and his Strength was on par with a tier 5 dragon as he alone was the only one to reach 50% of a dragon's strength but in due time he perished in a dungeon his death is unclear Never in her life had she thaught she could see another person like that unlucky man. That too from a kid who was only born a 3-4 years ago.
"Can we get to-" Issac wanted to train these individuals and so did Nova's as they had vast potentials and could make them immortals in history as teachers of legends but were cut short by Zash who said
"Now imagine the amount of people who were slaves throughout the decades, ever wondered how many talented individuals may have died off due to greed, envy or hunger or misfortune, who could have helped mankind or other species if they'd had given them proper education and rights and guidance.
Can you begin to imagine how many kids just like them may have had potentials but we're raised as playthings and experience farms ? Do you at least get what I'm trying to say ? Or this world is just this dumb it seems with no farsightedness into the future !" Zash argued as it seemed the people of these world were indeed stupid enough and they themselves needed proper education and while Zash didn't want his relaxed lifestyle to be effected by this he simply couldn't ignore it as well as in his previous world he had spent just a little more than 20 years meanwhile in this world he'd spent more than 11000 years as such he couldn't just bear to watch it get destroyed by fools afterall
Nova's heard bells ring in his head as did Daisy, Issac and Sylphia as they were indeed this stupid and ignored this major issues. All had neither words nor the strength to argue with Zash as everything he's said was indeed on point and literally a few hundreds slaves are killed or die due to factors now just imagining even taking a small portion of them dying it meant losing a tier 5-6-8 being who could make their Association filled with glory and stabilizing their Guild and regions.
Meanwhile Sylphia too glanced at Zash a bit embarrassed thinking about if the dragons had did the same and could've gained favour and fame along with support as this was their world as well.
Silence reigned over the room as Elka too was wondering about Zash's words.
"I.i.. Would you like to be the guild Leader's position ? Nova's asked" stunned Isaac and Daisy which surprised Zash.
"There's no need for that as I said we would move out later on in a few years or months during that we will help you out in whatever way possible" Zash said
"I'm still the offer stands as I'm too short-sighted to continue on it seems and while you can also become the leasing figure of other Adventurer's associations throughout the world as you've indeed got those capabilities" said Novas while what he didn't know was Zash was indeed the leading figure of Trillions and maintened peace and stability during his time as such he was a natural inborn Leader class.
"Haa~ is there something else you need ?" Asked Nova's
"Hmm yes I've levelled up as such please register me with my latest level on my ID " and showed his level. Which surprised daisy as he was only LV 17 but also Nova's and Issac as he was a LV 1 just the day before yesterday ! And couldn't believe his leveling speed
"You- You've Gained 17 levels in just 2 days ?!" Asked Isaac who seemed to be stunned.
"Well yes I've got dungeon hunting the day before and got to LV 13 meanwhile I killed the slave merchant and his crew which got me to LV 17 " Which stunned Daisy and the men even more and felt their common sense leaving their brains and felt a bit weak mentally.
' It seems I'm not alone to be stunned by Zash's deeds' thaught Sylphia who remembered the thousands of years she was always dumbstruck by Zash's shinagans and enjoyed their "suffering" to an extent.
After registering his level he inquired more.
"I have many materials from clearing dungeons does the guild accepts them being sold by others if so please explain the procedure"
"It's nothing serious just take them out well appraise everything and estimate their original value and selling values and give you your share while taking a percentage of your earnings for the guild as processing fees. As for Certain tasks and quests the owner or publisher of quests has already paid a set amount to post those quests as such every amount of earnings go towards the Adventurers for themselves as they were the one to do the said job" said Novas and Zash got a better idea.
"Ok I agree but this place is too small for the material I hold. Do you have a place big enough as a warehouse? " Inquired Zash.
"Sure come with me " said Issac and showed the 5 of them towards the warehouse while Nova's glanced at daisy and told her a few things.
"Don't overthink he's a good person and strong beyond our understandings, just do your work and remember not to speak about them to anyone else even your close aides as currently they don't want themselves to be known" and told her to manage the counter as she was the most talented professional among the guild's management incharges as such they both trusted her but warned her still being cautious to which she gladly agreed as it was a fortune enough to meet such people in her lifetime alone.
After getting in the warehouse Zash Serena and Sylphia emptied their inventory and put forward h all materials they acquired meat, Bones, Scales, weapons armours and Weapons piling up in 3 small mountainous filled their visions as they were in vaste numbers meanwhile Zash's mountain was a bit larger and they could spot a few powerful weapon and armours and most of all A Gold rank Weapon and armour along with other rare materials which were in high demand stunning both the men while they couldn't help but ask.
"You three collected them by yourself in a single day ?" Such a haul represented the combined efforts of Adventurering individuals and months worth of energy and time consumption even so such rewards were hard to come by while they each did it in a single day meanwhile a LV 1 skyped to LV 13 and later became a LV 17. The group was unbelievable Zash being even more ridiculous.
"Hmm yes and while 90% of the stuff is from the dungeons some new stuff seems to to have been added to it " Zash said as he knew and remembered everything about what he put in the inventory.
"Don't worry I know about it " said Sylphia confirming Zash's doubts and went on saying
"As you killed the merchant all of his possessions and money goes to whoever killed him this applies to everyone who gets Killed by someone else as he gets to possess his Inventory's possessions" and at this instance Zash came to know about yet another basic law of this world.
"Does the guild accepts them as well ?" Inquired Zash once more.
"Why yes of course if one wishes to sell one's possession he is free to do so. Even if it's from someone who's dead but once someone possesses it and brings it out to be sold" and was a bit wondered about Zash's situation as he didn't knew many of the common rules while Sylphia was isolated and as seemed Serena Zash on the other hand was like an experienced adult who was shoved off in a new world left to learn everything by himself { Truth be told Both the men were not far off from the truth}
"There's a few things I'll discuss with you later meanwhile take these and learn and most importantly "Teach" these to the people around I'll also abolish slavery of humans and every other race's and I will say it if you know personal clients or customers who use slaves or people as personal property,o meat shields or Exp Farms tell them to stop right now if not I'll destroy everything they ever created" said Zash and made a few Books and files from his Quantombots which filtered mana into material form which took the shapes of books and papers and within the books and files consisted a set number of guidelines to follow with improved standard of living and Rights of every Being and how to implement them in cities, towns Apr nations as this world used basic living standards he made and estimated the most beneficial route to improve the standard of living in accordance improve their relationship with other races and the way they treated eachother which will eventually lead towards a better future.
Meanwhile Daisy had just entered the room to count and tally up the materials as Issac called for her while seeing the huge heaps of materials gave him a headache meanwhile this statement from Zash stunned them both with nothing left to do the three of men could only think of the outcome of the people who did such atrocities stay committed to it and what outcome awaited them. Even Sylphia and Serena wondered what Zash would do and if he could really change a hundred thousand yearsold tradition by himself but rather than that deep down with them they all knew ' if he says it he "Will" do it' and sighed
