Agatha's private chamber. The city of White Raven.
Three days before Eren was due to leave his city for Edinburgh's capital, Edin.
Eren and Agatha were sitting upright on the latter's bed, barely clothed. Miss Manager was accessing her spectral screen and giving Eren an update on everything that was happening inside his city.
"Hehe. Among other things… Argo spent around 300 thousand Extols on buying random things. Thankfully, he spent it here so it will circulate back to us sooner or later."
Eren had stress lines on his forehead when he heard the report from Agatha. He wanted to argue that the circulation of money wasn't the problem but decided to let it go.
It had been a few days since he got into his city and started to manage a lot of its pending affairs. He had let Argo free and the fat bird managed to run wild with whatever liberties were given to him.
Nina was busy with her own work. So Eren tended to Agatha's "needs" day and night during these days. He also used his lust-induced epiphany on her. And this time, it was she who benefitted the most.
Agatha managed to make astonishing progress in her ranking status, thanks to the lust-induced epiphany, allowing her to reach the peak of the liquid stage Adept rank. It was to be noted that she had broken into the Adept rank not too long ago.
Eren also welcomed Dianna into the city. After ghosting House Remus, she settled in his city. She benefited greatly from his Sin of Lust, as a result.
Eren's attainments of various elements and their Aspects were accumulated at a steady pace. So one could say that he didn't have anything to complain about.
Arjun and Lyon were next to join the White Raven guild. They had done exactly what Eren had told them to do, preventing the army from stopping their exit.
Eren looked after the arrangements for the newly joined members of his guild. Throughout the city, he attended several public events.
The batch of rankers that entered the rank-up program came out during this time as well. Surprisingly or unsurprisingly, nobody died. Some of them damaged their mana cores and mana circuits a bit but the damages were recoverable so there were no real losses.
Bianka, Drin, and Tumko Darata along with their team members had managed to make exceptional progress in their elemental attainments as well as their ranking statuses, thanks to the elemental pool. It would have taken them years to reach the level they were currently at after surviving the rank-up program.
The Adept rankers had the most to gain from the elemental pool. Their gains were significant compared to the risk factor they had by being part of the rank-up program.
Eren congratulated everyone that was part of the rank-up program. He set up the use of special resources and healers for rankers who got injured in the process as well. He also embarked on a few missions with the fit rankers to witness their program-induced growth firsthand.
The rankers who benefited from the rank-up program thought that they were doing quite well until they saw what Eren could do without having been through the same program. Every single one of them was blown away by Eren's progress while they were doing missions together. They realized why the man was their guild master at the time.
The next to join the rank-up program were Nina, Levine, Jiana, Amory, and all the other high-ranking entities associated with him. Eren would leave for Edin once Nina and Levine came out of the program.
Kirin separated from Eren after she entered the city of White Raven. She approached Baran who was stationed inside the Badlands. The half-elf has been given the task to target the cultists and the royal elves behind them, which were intended to target Eren's assets.
Eren kept in touch with Kirin and gave her a few pointers on what she could do. He also arranged his Half-Blood Bastion connection to aid the half-elf. As a result of all of Eren's measures and countermeasures, the city of White Raven was able to stay safe amid all the potential crises thrown its way.
Due to him handling so many things, the butcher didn't have time to chaperone Argo due to his extremely busy schedule. And the demon beast seemed to have taken huge advantage of that.
Eren sighed before speaking up.
"Spending money is fine as long as he can work hard to justify his lifestyle. Assign more lucrative missions to him."
Agatha pursed her lips and accessed the next spectral screen related to the White Raven guild. She chuckled when she found out what Ago was up to.

Eren smirked when he learned Argo was busy doing his own thing.
"That brat is smart. He doesn't risk himself by taking dangerous solo missions. And he knows that pairing with high-ranking entities on even riskier and yet relatively safer missions will give him greater rewards.
He is constantly putting himself on edge to improve on an individual level as well. I guess we didn't need to worry about him after all."
Agatha nodded at Eren's statement as she reviewed all the active missions currently available for White Raven guild members. She could see that Eren's work ethic had a hand in Argo's upbringing. But where Eren focused on cutting down on his expenses, the demon beast focused on simply earning more.
Agatha had a smile on her face as she felt Eren's hands climbing over the exposed parts of her body again. She was just about to close the spectral screen when an alert message popped up.
She read through the message quickly and swatted Eren's hand away before telling him in an excited voice.
"No… stop it, Eren. We need to get ready. Something huge has happened."
Eren didn't want to let Miss Manager go just yet. He could only blame that on the side effects of using the Sin of Lust. But Agatha made him read the emergency alert and that finally snapped him out of his overindulgence.
