I like them big, do you?

Chapter 111: Motivational Theory

The basement didn't have anything useful other than the rune.

Of course, Reylin secured dark matter and stuff that could somehow help the kingdom understand this power.

His group left a few people behind to join others, then Reylin returned to the Common Supreme's Guild House.

Aria's guild house wasn't in the most welcoming city.

It was gloomy here, and the whole city was dipped in negativity.

The hidden organization was the cause, and their deeds left most residents scared of their lives. They barely left their houses, only to work and keep their lives somewhat steady.

Aria wanted to change it as the city was her future.

Alas, the hidden organization kept thwarting her plans.

Reylin and his group passed through gates without any check.

Most players had the guild name attached to their nickname, so no one stopped them. A few hopeful guards from the Brightdoom Kingdom had also asked about the situation, yearning for the city to turn for better as fast as possible.

Reylin glanced at them, then after the guards scattered back to their job, "Weather affects us more than you all imagine. Should I drop The Red Sky?"

His group faintly smiled at him, "That doesn't sound like a bad idea."

The players usually roamed around the world searching for epic quests and battles, so they rarely kept ties with one unless they wanted to build a reputation or the situation was quite tense.

Aria's Guild Members were the latter, and they developed a genuine desire to help the city's gloomy atmosphere.

Reylin's idea was odd, but it sounded plausible, especially after seeing the video a few times.

At last, Reylin took a seat in Aria's Guild House.

It was like a big tavern.

The first floor was similar to a vast restaurant, and many players took a seat by those tables. A lady with a faint but bitter smile served food and drinks to everyone who had requested.

Reylin's group dropped onto the table.

Of course, the guild house also had prepared room for prisoners such as people Reylin had left alive from the hidden base.

His whole group soon drank and ate some food to replenish their stamina.

"I guess we should hunt some mini-bosses," The players from the Reylin group returned fast as the pyromaniac was just that effective.

They decided to hunt some mini-bosses and keep their province safe. However, their mood wasn't as high as it was before. It used to be quite a thrilling experience, but people's mood had never changed, and the town remained dark.

It was as if there was no end, and it slowly affected them as well.

Reylin sneered, "You guys are a terrible example to the city's residents. That waitress from before is much better as she keeps smiling despite their predicament."

His words scratched their hearts, and it began bleeding with self-derision.

"Let's see... Can any of you use this rune?" Reylin passed the dark rune.

One by one, players took it into their hands.

No message appeared in their system, meaning they weren't worthy of building their own troops. It was also not due to Reylin touching it first, as the system would diagnose the owner!

Thus, they weren't really worthy!

Reylin shrugged, "Have any of you created your own skill scrolls?"

His eyes hovered on fire mages, who had flinched to his words.

The fire mages shook their heads, "We use skills from other NPCs..."

"But you build your own path through the Weapon Skill Tree, don't you?" Reylin sneered, "Even though it still somehow dictates your route as Weapon Skill Tree also just unlocks new effects, how you use them is all up to you. How you combine them is also up to you. These two things are how you can create something original, unique only to you.

That's how you should create your own skill scroll," Reylin chuckled.

His words sparked the group, and their eyes lit up with flames of desire! That was like a push they had been looking for, and all of them promptly stood up.

One of the fire mages said, "To be honest, I thought I would reach some proficiency in my skills, then sell them to players for a lower price!

But that's what makes me cheap! I should create my own skill! If I fail, so be it! I won't regret taking this path! Let's do it, everyone!"

Indeed!

Everyone stood up with the same blazing desire, and they all wanted to try some new moves just to get closer to the next level.

Reylin laughed, "This world has so much stuff to do. Don't be so repetitive, and always yearn for something more.

Although you might not be worthy of wearing a crown, you are part of the king's crown. In your case, the more you play and try the new stuff, the stronger you become. Versatile people are the most troublesome, and Aria would be more than glad to have those in one of her main teams."

Lioness was the king, and the guild members were the people.

It was much harder to guide people who lacked even a drop of ambition. Their goal and hard work toward it would polish Aria's Crown and bring her higher in the guild leader's ranking!

"Yeah!" The group loudly cheered and surprised the rest.

They thanked Reylin for that push and headed to the guild house's doors.

At that time, Lioness and her group also returned.

She blinked her eyes at the particular group with shining eyes.

"Thanks for your hard work, Leader! We are going to clean up some mini-bosses!" They saluted like soldiers and left the city faster than ever before.

Lioness was pleased to see that at least a few people had finally brightened their mood, "They will even challenge the hidden organization in such a state. What did you do?"

She was also aware that Reylin was the cause.

In her private room, Reylin casually said, "I've thought about a few things on my way here. Although it was just a little theory of mine, it should work. If it doesn't, they will still gain something out of it."

Reylin extended his hand and seized Aria's waist. His other hand lifted her chin, "I got to see your surprised and relieved expression, so it worked already for me. I will also pursue that theory later on."

"You have to pursue something else now," Aria said while licking her rosy lips.

Reylin caught her in a kiss, and the Lioness reciprocated his feelings.

Neither of them backed down in that sultry connection.

At last, Aria narrowed her eyes, "You've managed to bypass all defensive mechanisms with that second class of yours. The only reason you've won our bet."

"Looking for excuses?" Reylin sneered.

"If you make me comfortable in your house, I might stay for longer," Aria wasn't upset with her loss, "If not, I will kidnap you to my house instead."

To her words, Reylin's heart skipped a beat, and he wanted to kidnap something else right at that moment. However, Lioness stopped his hand and whispered, "You will have me soon in your house."

"Should I call my butler right now?" Reylin distanced himself and took a seat on the sofa.

Aria sat next to him and took out a dark rune!

"Call him later," She passed the rune to him, "We should discuss this now. It seems like we both got the same rune, and its name is quite self-explanatory already."

Reylin nodded, "Pure Dark Matter... If monsters have just a scant of that matter, then this rune should create 100% pure troops out of it... I've secured items from the hidden base, so we can play with it."
