Micky was brought to the room with the guild master and the original teachers. Now that the midterms were over he would be sent out on one of two different tracks. Originally there was only one track, but with the Baron going to war with the neighbors of the kingdom of Aene another track had opened up. Now, there were two options; the first was to continue in parties or raids with moderate oversight and training while a new batch where being trained in their absence. The second was the soldier’s track, this included pay, supplies, and even the baron paying off any and all debts to the guild incurred during the course of training. Micky was on a third track, he was to be an officer, a position normally reserved for the top of the class, in the military. Micky did not have a choice in the matter he was informed by knight dumb and knight dee.

Micky sighed, he was also informed now would be a good time to set up his sponsorships. As these would be flying the colors of the count, Micky could take on the entire class if he wanted, he did not want, because they would be his responsibility. He did however, want to sponsor one group of adventurers and had an idea for his sponsorship. So he called up the shield spartan as well as the top of the class he had partnered with when he fought the minotaur.

The top class showed up in the office but he was informed that the spartan had already paid out on the guild and was heading towards the city of Aene for the arena. Interestingly enough that was where Micky would be heading for his schooling himself when he was done with his own 3 month tour in the military. He was to be a centurion, a leader of a hundred hundreds. This was higher than any position that the class would have gotten even in the leader track.

“Yo, Micky! Waz ap!” said Jeff, He came in for a hug, a manly hug, Micky did not fanboy squee! He quickly introduced the rest of his ragtag crew of completely equipped elites. Micky had met most of them but four of them he was not well acquainted with.

“I can’t believe we finally get to meet this mystery noble man! And you’re here too! What a world, am I right? We even heard that he is working for Count Von Alderson! Can you believe it?” Said Jeff. This led to various nods and ramblings all around.

“Oh yes, I was aware. How have you guys been and what have you been up to hu? How’ed your exams go?” Asked Micky.

“Ahh, I’ve been good, I’m going for the adventurer’s track. I did good on the exams, top of the class! Can you believe it? That solo mission was a breeze too, too easy, right man?” Jeff said. Micky almost choked on that last bit…

Micky laughed nervously, “Yeah it was easy… anyway. Come on that can’t be all, what’s your plans? What’s up?” asked Micky.

“You know, same old same old… We where planning on going with the whole group out and adventuring together. Maybe you could tag along I guess.” Jeff stated.

“Oh while you’re at it would you like to join my guild? I already have an exclusive noble contract, and could probably get another tied closely to it. Though admittedly it isn’t very big right now...” Micky stuttered out.

“You could afford a guild? Man, you must be loaded to get that price. Yeah, I could run it for you.” Said Jeff.

“Ahh, yes, well, anyway, I think it’s probably time to start that meeting by now?” Said Micky.

“But the noblemen hasn’t shown up yet?” Said Jeff and a number of his party.

“Alright, Since everybody is here, I guess we can get started.” Said the guild master.

“But the noblemen hasn’t shown up yet?” Questioned Jeff.

“You can’t be that dense.” stated the guild master. He looked into Jeff’s blank eyes, “Ok, you are that dense. I present to you his honorable self, Micky Anderson, Courtier un Jimmy Von Alderson fifth son to count and countess Von Alderson.” Said the guild master. Jeff looked like his eyes were going to fall out of his head, Micky wasn’t sure his brain was working anymore. Micky also noticed that the guild master had made a nice save by including both the count and countess, nice save indeed.

Micky coughed into his hand before standing up. “Ahh, yes, pleasure to meet you all in an official capacity. I am a lesser noble under the counts, and I hope we can work well together in the future no matter what you decide.” Micky said.

Jeff and all the other peasants immediately got on their knees and saluted the noble with their heads bowed. “Please forgive our rudeness m’lord, it was our own belligerents for not noticing your grandeur sooner.” Said Jeff. It had also suddenly occurred to him why Micky’s guild was able to secure two nobles so easily, after all one was running it.

Micky looked on people he considered friends bowing before him and became uneasy. He understood it of course, he too was a peasant until recently, even if a citizen. “Please stand up, there is no need for bowing, we are friends right?” Said Micky.

The guild master coughed into their hand to get attention “Know your nobles grace. He has granted you leave to not bow to him in private, but in public you should always bow to him and present him in the best light possible. It is a great honor he only grants to those he truly trusts.” Said the guild master pointed staring at Micky the entire time. Micky hadn’t yet been truly in an official capacity as a noble yet. He had to bow and such, and even learned how to bow properly. As a lesser noble, when in the presents of royalty he should bow at a half over. The nobility only needed to bow ¼ and the archdukes only needed to give a slight bow to their brother. This was unless you were a knight or in presentation to the king in which you had to take a knee. Peasants would have to make a full on bow to the king or nobility. Which meant that under strict circumstances they were actually being disrespectful. However, Micky himself didn’t know that he was supposed to get down and perform a full degoza to the king and nobility so it was understandable that they just copied what they saw the knights do in the comic scrolls. He saw both when people bowed to the emblazoned chariots driving down the streets of the town. And most nobles couldn’t be bothered to care to announce themselves to have the people in the streets embarrass themselves with improper etiquette.

Micky awkwardly let the situation settle a bit before he stated. “So I was thinking of sponsoring you all. It would be great if you all joined my guild too. This way it could work as a two for one deal, so to speak. It could go further if we gave you all some etiquette lessons on top of it all. After all if you’re going to be meeting with nobility you should know how to deal with these kinds of situations.”

This got a round of nods of approval and with the guild master here the signing on to the guild was quick and easy. He then had them taken to get outfitted once this was all done. No longer were they a ragtag group of well outfitted elites. Now they were a group of magically enchanted, well outfitted elites. They also had Micky’s insignia on a badge for them to show off. It was a simple thing with the count’s insignia surrounding his own on the corner of the shield. In this way there can be no doubt who he worked for. Of course, this required the counts approval first and jut went to show how high he was in the ranking in the officials. Which was in actuality non existent…

Micky decided to call it a day. He had to pack his things and being in the military he would have to purchase all of his own gear. The count was outfitting most of the soldiers but that was more of a loan. This did not count the class, but Micky wasn’t going as part of the class, he was going as himself on orders of the count as a show of support to the baron.

Micky opened the door of his house to find Prin naked covered from head to toe in cum. She said “Oh Micky, you’re back. The girls are all out for the day and won’t be back for some time. How did your meeting go? Sorry, I couldn’t be there but I wasn’t allowed… Anyway, I should probably get changed.”
