《Building an army in another world》Chapter 6 – Guild
Advertisement
Following Wolfram, we go down a set of stairs onto one of the main roads. Walking down the road I look around amazed at my surroundings. There are mostly shops at market stands with the occasional inn. All the buildings are the colour of sandstone but it is also extremely colourful, all the market stands are multicoloured everyone clothes have at least two colours. Everything is so vibrant and colourful.
Everyone looks like they are also sand elves, they are mostly tall, have dark skin with sand coloured hair their eye colour seems to be mostly the normal colours plus a few have sand coloured eyes.
These sand elves lives revolve around sand. Everything is made of sand and almost everything is sand coloured. This must be why everything not made of sand is so colourful.
While walking through the town I realise looking at the shop signs that I can’t read this language. That will be something I have to learn.
“What language are these signs written in?”
“There written in Ovarhi it's also the language we are speaking.”
Are we not speaking English. How do I know another language I have never heard before? Might be the whole in a different world thing.
After about ten minutes of walking Wolfram stops outside what looks like an inn. Stopping next to him he tells me.
“This is the Guild here you can get jobs ranging from gathering materials to fighting monsters. This is also where you go if you want to run a business and most craftsmen join for financial and political support.”
Is this like an adventurers guild? But it seems to also work as a workers union or at least similar.
Walking inside behind Wolfram there is a large room filled mostly with tables with people sitting around them in armour and carrying weapons. The reception desk has space for four receptionists there are currently two working a male sand elf and is that a girl with fox ears?

“Sir Wolfram your back.”
The fox girl shouted to wolfram.
“I'm back Ayako.”
Walking closer to the fox girl who seems to be called Ayako I can see she is wearing what looks to be a colourful kimono. She has white skin with blue eyes and white hair.
“Who's this I haven't seen her before is she a vampire?”(A)
“She’s Eirisse a vampire royal.”(W)
“Eeh your a vampire royal should I call you your highness or your majesty?”(A)
“Just call me Eirisse it’s not like I'm a real royal I don’t have a country or anything at least not yet.”(E)
“Yet? Does that mean you plan on forming your own country?”(A)
“I might I don’t know yet. I don’t know how I would though.”(E)
“If you do can I go with you? I have always wanted to go on a heroic journey and this could be one.”(A)
“I don’t know why you can’t.”(E)
“yay!”
She is very happy about something that will likely not come true.
“Is there anything you needed?”(A)
“She needs somewhere to stay even if temporary.”(W)
“I understand I will prepare her a room immediately.”(A)
Standing up she walks through a door to my right. That must be where the rooms are. Looking to my left is another door with a sign I can’t read.
“That's where the offices and consultation rooms are.”
Wolfram explains seeing me looking at the door.
“The consultation rooms are mostly used by craftsmen who need legal or financial help.”
So that is where the trade union like part happens.
“Your room is ready.”
Ayako shouted to us.
Walking over to where Ayako is I can see through the door is a corridor with doors on both sides.

Following behind her after saying goodbye to Wolfram who has other work to do, I can see her white tail the air around her is also quite cold. What is she?
“Ayako if you don’t mind me asking what are you?”(E)
“I don’t mind my kind are rather rare around here. I am a type of Lisica who look human but have fox ears and tail. More specifically I am an artic Lisica we live mostly in cold and snowy regions.”(A)
“If your kind live in cold regions what are you doing in a desert?”(E)
“I have lived here my entire life. My parents were adventurers and they arrived here when I was born and stayed here since. I use magic my parents taught me to cool down the air around me.”(A)
As she says this she stops outside a door.
“This is your room.”
“Thank you.”
Opening the door and walking inside it is a simple room with a bathroom to the immediate left, a bed in the right corner, a desk in the left corner with a wardrobe next to it with a mirror.
This is going to be my home for now.
Walking over to the mirror I look at my new appearance.

Dungeon Core Chat Room.
This is a slower-paced "experiment and dungeon building" web novel that tries to use the idea of peer-to-peer communication with Dungeon Cores instead of Dungeon to slave monster communication to break up the detailed dungeon building. Rank 1 description: (minimum met for system initialization...detailed description as follows) Each race was given a system by the gods to make up for their shortcomings and balance their place in this world. Humans: Abysmally bad at understanding and using magic unable to use more than the lowest of magic were given the "Skill System" magic in the form of premade skills with use, study, and mastery tied to experience. Elves: Intuitively understand magic and have long lives leading to vast knowledge and skill in their chosen fields. However, as a species, they have nearly zero sex drive and less than low fertility, so they were gifted the "World Tree System" with experience gained through the care of natural areas – gifting the chance of children to increase their numbers without dirty copulation. All “natural” or “wild” monsters are given an "Evolution system" designed around killing and consuming as many creatures as possible, slowly increasing strength and, at thresholds, allowing mutations to alter them multiple times. Dungeon cores are different. Unlike humans, they can see, manipulate and live off mana. Unlike Elves, they naturally crystallize after extended periods of time in high mana level areas. However, they cannot easily move or communicate and typically go insane without companionship. As a species other than the odd eccentric they are unimaginative. Brute forcing solutions without the drive to truly innovate. Thus they have been gifted with the "Dungeon Connection System" a magical version of the internet accessible by their peers that allows them to barter and sell: bait, traps, monsters, and knowledge, as well as entertain each other with “adventure streams” using exciting recorded battles and humorous reels of arrogant chumps biting off more than they can chew to often fatal effects. This is the casual story of a dungeon unluckily spawned far from potential adventurers forced to innovate beyond its peers to find its place in this world. Rank 2 Description: Justification. I've been on a dungeon core kick for months and while I love the genre – it's sparse with entries. Often the forced conflict gets repetitive and frantic solving of threats "power levels" the protagonist to god levels to progress the plot – taking away the nice steady progression fantasy I'm looking for. (Progression in this story is linked to how strong of monsters/traps/whatever he can create not his "level"...this is demonstrated by some of his newer monsters beating his older monsters not with discrete "this monster has 10 attack this one has 40") Additionally, the focus on 3rd parties with their drama takes away from the reason I’m reading dungeon core novels in the first place – I'm looking for magical crafting, experimentation and kingdom building – not defence from higher and higher levelled enemies looking to steal/destroy/control the MC. This novel is kind of just me writing the story I wish I could read. I like thinking about the experimentation that can be done in fantasy settings using 'mana' as an excuse to make up rules and try to keep them internally consistent. IE once I define how a rule works, I'm going to commit to keeping it – no breaking hard truths I've given when it's convenient, even if it backs me into a corner. Hopefully, that should make the story interesting to read even if it's SOL and less action-oriented. There will be problems to solve and a clear progression in strength (of created monsters and knowledge) however due to not wanting to force conflict for the sake of conflict the general theme will be closer to slice of life with few action sequences and no overarching goal so please keep that in mind when picking this up as the genre is not for everyone. Finally, I have a clear goal of what I want from this story (not an endless romp but a series of arcs and then a conclusion that's a couple of dozen medium-sized chapters long) I want to commit to finishing it or at least bringing it to a point of rest. I hate all the engaging stories that stop with a “hiatus” indefinitely so in the event I lose motivation I'll work to end this even if the ending becomes rushed/unsatisfying just to give a sense of closure. I’m planning on including several polls in terms of direction and taking feedback heavily into account if I get enough readers (but may choose to ignore it if it deviates too far from the direction I want to take this as in feedback like: “The MC needs a cartoonishly evil arch-enemy that wants to enslave him and force the mc to pump out magic items” or “the MC needs to make a body and learn teleportation then live with humans” will get shot down without consideration.)
