Everyone was extremely happy in the guild hall , exited about their new life in the upsdie. The party was extremely lively , with everyone fraternizing with each other and with each others families. 

Little max was the happiest , sitting with Fatty kalash he ate slices of cake after cake , his entire face smothered in chocolate , he looked extremely cute. 

Rudra's parents talked with other parents. Naturally they were shocked and proud to see the respect their son commanded from everyone in the room . 

Rudra's mom was very happy , her nose arched 30° higher than usual. Whereas father Mahesh could only helplessly sigh following his exited wife. 

Ethan Grey was in the crowd , wearing a mask , and not many people approached him. This was not the first time Ethan had been to a party wearing a mask , but it was the only one that made him feel that he should not have. 

The atmosphere was soo lively , he wanted to let loose too and enjoy the atmosphere. It was then that Rudra pulled his arms and pulled him on the dance floor with him. 

Ethan was stiff at first , but soon danced his heart out , seeing the man dance , many people slowly got rid of his unapproachable aura , and slowly he was included in a dance group. 

Ethan looked Rudra in the eye , and although no words were exchanged Rudra understood it all , Rudra said " Welcome to the Elites ". As he patted Ethan on the shoulder before moving on. 

Rudra went to the bar counter to get a drink , when his eyes fell on a stunning asian girl beside him. 

Smooth jade like skin , with exquisite features , a slim waist and a good bust. She was someone who would make people whistle at sight. Although dressed moderately in a loose fitting dress , Rudra could see the well defined figure beneath it. ' Beautiful ' , Rudra thought in his mind ..... She turned to look at Rudra , and caught him staring. 

The figure was none other than Naomi , Neatwits twin sister, she thought Rudra must be staring at her because she looked like the female version of naman ... Hence she said " Yes , i am namans twin sister ". 

Rudra's brain crashed for a second , the information just breezed by without processing , he said " sorry, naman who ? ". 

It was an awkward situation , because Naman was right behind him , as he tapped on Rudra's shoulder , Rudra turned to look at Neatwit s face , and then it striked him " Ohhhh..... " Rudra said. 

Neatwit sheepishly scratched his nose , as Naomi giggled , Rudra cleared his throat as he extended his hand towards Naomi " Guild leader Shakuni , but you can call me Rudra , pleasure to meet you ". 

Naomi took his hand graciously as she said " Fastwit , level 36 healer , but you can call me Naomi ". 

Rudra raised an eyebrow at this information level 36 healer at this stage of the game was an extremely impressive feat, she could easily get into any first rate guild she wanted to , and theyd be happy to have her. 

Rudra asked " What guild are you a part off ?" 

Naomi smiled sheepishly as she said " none ". 

Rudra looked at Neatwit puzzled as he asked " Why not ..?". 

Neatwit also looked towards the floor as he was too shy to answer .... Rudra found the twins to be too reserved. It was awkward for him! 

Finally after what seemed like a long pause naomi said " i want to join the Elites , but fail to meet the threshold ". 

' ooooo , soo thats it ' Rudra thought .

A big conflict brew inside Rudra's mind at this point , at one side the male part of his brain wanted to be all chivalrous and accept the beautiful girl as a part of the guild , however the guild leader part had set a clear standard for entry into the guild. 

Both the male part and guild leader part argued for a while , before the finishing blow came as , she is talented level 36 healer , although not enough to be an elite , with the new members added to the party they needed more healers. Hence the male part won. 

" Well , you can join ". Rudra said in a deep voice. 

Naomi looked at Neatwit , her eyes sparkling. She really wanted to take Rudra up on the offer , however Neatwit spoke up " let her enter on her own merit , no need to give out favours ". 

Rudra was internally extremely pissed at this cockblocking brother , however externally he kept a big smile saying " If its for an elder like you , and a talented priest like her , i think we can make an exeption ". 

Neatwit felt touched by Rudra's words , he felt Rudra was doing him a favour. His eyes moist he held Rudra's shoulders saying a weak " Thankyou ". 

Rudra smiled , he wanted to get rid off this pesky brother and try flirt with Naomi a little bit more , ' ahem , ahem' , nononono He wanted to learn about her strengths and weaknesses in game to guide her towards a developing path. He absolutely did not want to talk to her because he was smitten by her beauty, or because he wanted to touch her flawless jade like skin. Only because he was a nice guild leader who wanted to help his members , or thats how he lied to himself. 

However his plans were cut short when Neatwit asked him for private audience .... He really wanted to reject the guy , but he did not want to appear Rude infront of Naomi , soo hesitatingly he decided to follow him . 

In the corridor where the two were alone , Neatwit sighed as he said " Its going to be a long story , however i think you should know about my and my sisters past , we are actually Mithun Ambani's children .... ". 

Rudra's eyes widened at that statement , he was all ears now.
