Chapter 61.2 - Clan Founding Part 2

Editor: Thors Stone

After finishing my business at the Commerce Guild, I headed back to the Home. I found everyone in the middle of handing off their horses to the groom and stable boys. It looks like they havent entered the building yet.

Alan-sama! Youve managed to get us a truly splendid base. I am thoroughly impressed.

It seems buildings of this size are a rarity even in Gantz.

Thats right. I was surprised that the rent for this place is only 70,000 Guineas per month.

Oh, by the way, Captain Dalshim. Can you handle the distribution of the rooms for the rest of the members?

But of course. Since Her Highness is staying on the top floor, we will assign the rooms with her security in mind. What shall we do with the spoils we obtained from the bandits?

People from the Commerce Guild will come tomorrow to take a look at them. Please store them inside a room on the first floor and lock it securely. As for the gold, jewels, and other valuables, please move them to the Clan office on the fourth floor.

Understood.

The Clan office had a secure lock, and with this number of highly trained personnel, stealing the gold and jewels from there would probably prove quite difficult for any thief.

I saw the head of the employees, Sally-san, when we entered the building and called out to her.

Sally-san. Im sorry for returning with this number of people all of a sudden. Can I trust you to prepare dinner for us all? Simple dishes are fine. Just make sure everyone would be able to eat their fill.

But of course, Alan-sama. I have already asked some of the staff to buy ingredients. We will be able to serve dinner on schedule.

Ill leave it to you then. Oh, and please bring out the wine barrels I bought the other day for dinner as well.

Now then, how about having a nice, hot bath.

The dinner was held in a buffet style. Its the most appropriate for this number of people. Everyone seemed to be having fun while choosing the dishes they preferred.

I and the rest of the party were sitting together while having dinner. Captain Dalshim and Sir Walter were sitting near us as well.

Captain Dalshim, can you do a brief introduction of all the men you brought with you to me after the meal? I would like to start remembering their names as early as now.

Understood.

Ill be able to record all of their names on my personal database with Nanoms help anyway.

After everyone ate their fill, we had the staff clear out the tables. And when they finished, I had the staff all go out so only the knights and us Shining Star members remained. I also used my magic sensor to double-check if there were still people around who could eavesdrop on our discussion just to be safe.

With Captain Dalshims lead, each of the knights introduced themselves to me and stated their affiliation. The Royal Guard members were almost all from reputed noble families, and the earls troops were composed primarily of people who were knighted but had commoner origins. There should be a number of noble-born knights in the earls forces as well, but they should have been chosen based on their ability and not their pedigree.

Of course, I, Sharon, Selena, and Elna also introduced ourselves again.

Lastly, Cleria stood up and addressed the knights.

I am honestly glad that you still call me Your Highness and Princess even now, everyone. However, I am no longer a royal princess, but just a simple adventurer, Ria. So I would like you all to address me as Ria from now on.

Yes!

Captain Dalshim, please gather the main leaders of your group and come to the Clan office. I want to conduct a meeting with just us later.

Understood.

My party members, Captain Dalshim, Sir Walter, and the six people they selected, all gathered in the Clan office on the fourth floor.

Tomorrow afternoon, I plan on going to the Adventurers Guild to officially register our Clan. Ive looked into the registration process and it seems that the Clan leader and all the party leaders who wish to join him or her should apply together. This is probably to prevent people from registering other parties into a Clan without their consent. Thats why Id like for ten people to accompany me in registering tomorrow.

Understood. In other words, you would like to form ten squads with the ten people serving as leaders, correct?

Thats right. I want each squad to be roughly equal in strength if possible. Oh, and well have to decide on the party names of each squad as well.

Oh, actually, we already have an idea for that. What do you think about the name Satellite, Alan-sama?

Captain Dalshim declared the name they came up with while grinning good-naturedly. Satellite huh? So they will be the satellites orbiting the shining star, I guess. I see. It does seem fitting.

Its a nice party name. But there are ten squads though?

Then lets just name them Satellite Squad 1, Squad 2, and so on. What do you think?

Ill leave it to you then. Next, well talk about our next plans. First, Id like to continue with the bandit subjugation. I would like to change the number of teams deployed depending on the number of bandits we need to capture. For example, if were up against 15 bandits, Id like to send out 30 people, or in other words, three squads, after them. For 20 bandits, well send out 40 people, or four squads, and so on.

Theres strength in numbers. The overall strength of our Clan consists of the skill of the individual members as well as our great number. Well have to take advantage of those as much as possible. And if you went up against enemies with twice their number, the danger posed against the members would be lessened to a great degree.

However, well need a method to reliably scout out the rough number of bandits were up against each time we sortie with that plan Wait! I see! So it was that kind of plan. How splendid!

I moved my gaze to everyone else in the room, and they all nodded in acknowledgment.

Yosh. It looks like were all in agreement then. Alright then. Ill leave the organization of the ten parties to Captain Dalshim and Sir Walter since the two of you have a better grasp of everyones abilities.

Understood. If its alright with you, wed like to gather everyone in the dining room again after this.

Sure. Id actually like to participate as well, but I have something else that I have to do right now.

Understood. Please leave it to us.

The rest of the party were interested in forming the squads as well, so they joined up with Captain Dalshim and the others.

The thing I needed to do tonight was to devise a learning plan for Sharon and Selena in order for them to successfully cast healing magic. They havent learned how to do it until now after all. It seems they just couldnt constrict a satisfactory image in their minds.

I actually sent them the video compiled by Nanom that I watched that one time, but it looks like they couldnt cast Heal by using that as a reference as well.

In my case, I used the video compiled by Nanom to gain some hints, and I created the image of cute light spirits fixing up the cells of the body as my base to cast Heal, and it was honestly kind of embarrassing.

However, Ill need the girls to learn how to cast healing magic as soon as possible. This is no time to be feeling embarrassed.

(Nanom, please create a holo-video to help in image training for learning the Heal spell.)

Acknowledged.

(The main concept is light spirits healing a wound. First, lets design the looks of the light spirits. Please display a sample image for me. Uh, thats not right. Not that kind of slim and sexy fairy. Make them a bit more rounded No, you just made them fat. Ugh, fine. Ill do it.)

There you go. Now, these are some cute and cuddly spirits. They sported transparent wings and wore a white one-piece toga.

(Okay. First, lets create a scene of the spirits playing happily in the spirit world. Yosh, thats nice. Next is a scene where healing magic gets activated. Everyone gets surprised at first, but got themselves together and speedily went for their medicine pots. The color of the pots should be brown. The magic medicine inside them should be golden yellow. Next, the spirits all hoisted their pots under one arm and flew away to respond to the mages call Great. Please compile and edit all the scenes for me.)

Nice. Now, a short clip of light spirits having fun, and then rushing over to respond to a mage casting healing magic with their trusty medicine pots in hand was completed. Its coming along quite nicely.

(Next, please use the video you compiled and zoom in to the damaged cells. Hey! The expressions of the spirits havent changed yknow. Make them have expressions that are burning with a sense of mission here. Ugh. Dont let them fly haphazardly like that. Make them fly in formation. Uh, use Fleet Formation B as reference.)

The expressions of the spirits finally turned more proper. The spirits flew in Formation B toward the damaged cells. After a short moment, they finally arrived in front of the cells.

(Yosh. Okay then. Have two spirits put a cell back together and another three apply their magic medicine on the gaps. This is the most important scene, okay. As for their expressions, make them seem like theyre seriously hard at work. Yes. Make them rub in more medicine there. Its fine if they empty their pots. No holding back.)

Nice. Now, a scene of spirits putting a torn cell together and applying plenty of magic medicine to heal it was created. Yep, this is good.

(Make the number of spirits increase in accordance with the intensity of the light. Yes, just like the video you compiled This should be fine. Lets review it from the beginning. This time, lets also add some BGM.)

After roughly 30 minutes, I finally managed to create an instructional video. Lets check it out first. The last scene involves the spirit captain giving the audience a heroic salute after a job well done and leaving dashingly.

Man. To think I actually had talent in something like this. I didnt think I would be able to produce a short film of such quality.

Its the perfect reproduction of the image I use for the Heal spell. No, its actually even better. With this clip, Im sure the two of them will be able to master Heal in no time.

(Include a caption saying Heal Spell Practice Reference Video and send it to Selena and Sharon right away.)

Done.

After receiving a message from Alan, we snuck out of the meeting and went back to our own room.

Hey, Selena, did you already watch the video?

Of course.

Is he playing a prank on us?

I dont think so. This was surely made with serious intent. We couldnt cast the spell even after all that practice, so Im sure he made it for us after giving it a lot of thought. Anyway, Ill try to practice using this image.

Ill practice too.

Even after thirty minutes of repeatedly watching the video, I and Selena still hadnt managed to grasp the method to cast the Heal spell.

Did Alan really use this image as a reference when he learned the Heal spell?

Im sure he did! However, I cant seem to concentrate because too much unrelated thoughts keep popping into my head while watching it.

It looks like it was the same for Selena. This video really was

(Nanom, will it be possible for me to be put into a light hypnotic state while I watch the video?)

Its possible.

(Then, please do so.)

My consciousness became hazy. Now Ill just have to play the video on repeat. Once the image solidified in my mind, I muttered the spells name almost by instinct.

Heal.

Ah, rays of light are flowing out from my palm. Yes! I did it!

Selena! Look at this!

Sharon! Just how did you do it!? Please teach me!

I taught her the method I used, and Selena managed to succeed as well.

Lets report our success to Alan right away, Selena!

Yes, lets go!
