Chapter - 2
Rex looked around at his friends. Kazmain did not resemble his other self that much, not only due to his tanned skin. He had bright red hair which, Rex noticed, had a few flames going on and off. Adding that to his glowing green eyes and goofy grin, he completed the picture of a creepy elf. He was dressed in a flowing white robe with gold linings and black gloves. Rex also noticed a small animal snoozing on top of Kazmain's hair. it looked like a small monkey.
'A summoned beast maybe? He was going to be a summoner after all...' (Rex)
Next Rex turned his attention to Ira who was currently trying to coax Nox into another round of drinks with her and failing. She was tanned like her counterpart was and had a hair similar to Kazmain's. Her eyes were a blood red and she seemed taller and bigger than he remembered her to actually be. In fact, Rex swore he saw a few bulging muscles underneath the light armor she was wearing. What was most noticeable was the large Warhammer strapped to her back. Rex surmised that she was choosing to battle at close range, again.
Rex's eyes flitted to Nox, someone who he had met a few weeks ago. He seemed to have not changed much. He was dressed completely in black, loose black trousers along with a black hooded shirt. There was no visible weapons or armour on him. He would usually give off an unassuming impression, however currently, his attire and the company he was in was making him stand out a little.
As their drinks arrived, Rex's eyes turned to his trusted aide, Fel. An unassuming bespectacled woman who gave off a typical air of a secretary, Fel was 5'8", quite busty and curvaceous, with blonde hair and dark blue eyes. She had fair skin and a demeanour that suggested that she was just trying to make herself unnoticed. Rex remembered how this girl who was two years older than him, had tried to be an Assassin in another game and had failed. He wondered if she had found a class suited to her.
"Gah! This drink tastes like sour milk mixed with alcohol and strawberries!" (Kazmain)
"...First, what? Second, don't insult the food or I won't have a place to stay." (Rex)

"Watch your tongue, Vice Guild Master. We wouldn't want our Guild Master to be homeless." (Fel)
"Alright, fine." (Kazmain)
"So Little Boss, shall we begin?" (Ira)
"Who's the 'Little Boss'!? Haa...Right! First Order of Business, Show Status." (Rex)

'Not bad. Kazmain's a Combat Mage? That makes two close combatants. No, wait, three, counting Nox. So he's a librarian...wow. Those UABs sound nice. Eh? A Dark Elf with a Plant Affinity? Nice.' (Rex)
"...Well, color me impressed. Now then, Kazmain. What did you gather us here for?" (Rex)
"Two things. The first is 'Clan Creation' and the second is the task you set Nox on." (Kazmain)
"Ah....alright. What do you have for us?" (Rex)
"Fel? Why don't you start?" (Kazmain)
"Fine. In terms of finance, we're currently only at the entry level. However, the people that are part of my domain are already expanding across the Empire. We should be moving to other areas soon. The accounting process has started and I should have an estimate ready for you in a few months." (Fel)
"Thanks. Nox?" (Kazmain)
"Hm. My, no our, network is spread out across various taverns and merchant guilds. In that matter, I also asked Fel to assist me. In terms of reach, we haven't infiltrated any major organizations in this world just yet. However, someone that is a part of our....Clan...is garnering a lot of attention." (Nox)

"We don't want a big reveal just yet. We've always liked to lay low and do things as we pleased." (Kazmain)
"Don't worry, he's worked with me before, he's under Caelum now but he's not announcing his ties just yet. He's quite loyal. Unfortunately, he has the strange luck to fall into situations that cause his fame to skyrocket." (Nox)
"Basically, a protagonist of a light novel." (Kazmain)
Everyone had a wry smile when they heard that.
"*Chuckle* Alright, I made my quip. Ira?" (Kazmain)
"I haven't been able to get in touch with my division but I'll be borrowing Fel and Nox for that." (Ira)
Both Nox and Fel nodded in affirmation to Ira's statement.
"I see. Alright. In Tork's case, he said he's working the Orks for now but he's quite sure his division has also started their work. Caelum temporarily handed his authority to me, but, we don't utilize him unless there's a war or a raid so all I've done on his behalf is to check on his division. They're developing splendidly. As for my part, I've been focusing more on the creation part. A few users have already created Clans, however, those guys have the backing of powerful Natives." (Kazmain)
"Powerful? In what terms?" (Rex)
"Politically for some and well....strength for others. We might need a backer too. I'm gonna work on that but I think everyone here should also look for someone willing to back us. Or we could go the personal power route. However, none of us are that strong. Well, except for you Rex." (Kazmain)
"Me? How?" (Rex)
"Well....having the Void Element is plenty powerful. If we could advertise that then maybe..." (Fel)
"No. I need to keep that hidden for now. Nox can fill you in on why." (Rex)
"Ah! Speaking of....we're done with this topic for now so let's move on to Nox's report." (Kazmain)
Nox nodded and then stood up.
"The Guild Master asked me to compile a report on an individual referred to as the 'Dark Emperor'. Unfortunately, the only information I have is from the beta phase. His current whereabouts are unknown to me." (Nox)
Everyone had an expression of surprise when they heard Nox's report. It was rare for him to be unable to find a person.
"I see. Fill me in on his history." (Rex)
"Yes. From what I have gathered, his nature is somewhat whimsical. In other words, he's unpredictable. I have not found any concrete motives in his actions. Everything or every action he has taken seemed to have been unplanned. Even then, mostly due to his affinity with the Void Element, he was practically unstoppable in the beta phase. There are no recorded ways to counter a Void Elemental, which is why nations here tend to evacuate as soon as they hear news of one." (Nox)
"If what you are saying is true then...how did I not encounter him? In the beta phase?" (Rex)
"I am not entirely sure of your whereabouts at the time. The history books were quite vague about that. However, the Dark Emperor, as tyrannical as he was, didn't really like to involve himself in matters. He just did as he pleased, which is why understanding him is harder." (Nox)
"Hmm....fine. Continue to keep a lookout and compile a report on Tenebris. Kazmain and Fel, accelerate the gathering of resources. Nox, let your division spread and help us find a backer and a foothold. Ira, currently I don't have a job for you. Once, we take off, you'll know what to do. Everyone understands?" (Rex)
Everyone at the table nodded their heads.
"Yo Boss, do you have instructions for Caelum and Amicus? I can pass 'em down." (Kazmain)
"Ah! Yes, tell Amicus to take his time and gather up his forces. Tell Caelum to do the same thing when he has the time. Also, tell them both I'd like to meet them." (Rex)
"Got it." (Kazmain)
"Alright. We're done with the official business. More drinks, anyone?" (Rex)
"Sorry, but, I will have to take my leave. I have a little work I have to do." (Nox)
"Oh, alright then. See you around, Nox." (Rex)
Nox got up and said his goodbyes.
"Aww. Too bad. Anyway, I don't mind another round. What about you guys?" (Ira)
"Sure." (Fel)
"I don't mind." (Kazmain)
"Alright. Barkeep! Another round!" (Rex)
"Hehe! Hey, Little Boss-" (Ira)
"Who's 'Little'!?" (Rex)
"Aww don't be offended. I got you a present~. Here!" (Ira)
Saying so, Ira suddenly took out a large object out of thin air. Upon a closer look, Rex discovered that it was a weapon. A Warscythe.
"Oh." (Rex)
