Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!

426 The Various Benefits Of Having A Guild

—–

“Helga! You’re back already and we have yet to even take a bath! What’s the hurry?” I wondered, quickly descending downstairs.

I noticed Helga came with her husband this time, Myriad, alongside seven other dwarves, the same guys we meet yesterday. Alongside them there was also Blackard, the black bearded dwarf that was so nice with us too.

“Hey Maria and company! We just got called by Helga, she wants to make the guild asap now that she got the money.” Said Blackard.

“So it was a lot of money then!” I said in surprise.

“Yeah, we discussed it for a while with my husband and then I called the troop to my house, it is a good investment. Guilds get special benefits when paying exchanging ores for money and paying taxes. My husband also wanted to join the guild so he can get special benefits as a crafter.” Said Helga. “It is overall a win-win, so come with us, you said you wanted to join right?”

“Sure! Guys, let’s go!” I said, as I saw my troop all sleepily walking behind me. “Can the kids join?”

“Oh no, they only let people above 20 years of age to join a guild, children are not allowed to work, and they’re only considered adults when they reach 20 years.” Said Helga. “It is part of the norm; we are very careful of our kids.”

“Wow, another point on why you guys are more civilized than humans…” Partner said.

“Impressive, you’re really a well-organized society.” Emeraldine said.

“We do what we can, poverty is still a thing, but it is not that big nowadays, the guilds suck a lot of profits, but they reinvest them into the city.” Said Helga.

“Huh, an interesting model of society indeed.” Lucifer said. “Well, I might as well join.”

“Oooh, we are getting an Ancient Dragon to join us, holy shit man!”

“Is he going to do all the job for us?”

“Maybe we can ask him to fend off monsters while we mine? If he does that it would be of great help, we could mine a shit ton!”

“Maria’s Inventory would also be super handy, right?! She’s gonna be a great addition!”

The dwarves were all hyped about us joining. Although I wasn’t planning on staying here for the rest of my life, I was going to come every month at the very least, staying for maybe a week or half a week. This place will provide a lot of things to our small town, so it is important to come constantly.

“Hahaha! I’ll do what I can guys, but lower your expectations a bit, I don’t even have any Skills related to Mining.” I giggled.

“We’ll help you learn some right away then!” Said Helga. “After the registration of the guild, of course.”

“Alright, alright, let’s get going then.” I said. “Aquamarine, can your maidservants and manservants take care of my kids?”

“Yeah, I’ll be coming with you as well, if you register your guild with my help, it’ll receive special benefits as well.” Said the old hag.

“We are coming as well, if you are joining that guild, we might as well.” Baldur said.

“Yeah!” Balladur said.

“Me too…” Darfu said. “Can you two old men get some better clothes? You’re on your boxers!”

“Ah shit, right.” Said the twins, quickly moving back to their room.

“They seem a bit… reinvigorated. What did happen last night?” Helga asked with a cocky smile.

“Helga don’t go asking such things!” Her husband reprimanded her.

“Gyahahaha! I actually have a long history with those two.” Aquamarine said. “I was really missing their embrace in bed.”

“Huuhh… For being an old hag you’re still going at it, guild master!” Helga laughed her lungs out.

“Hahahaha!”

“Gyahahaha!”

The two dwarf women laughed cheerily as the other dwarves behind Helga also began laughing at how hilarious things were for them. They were so open about stuff that it felt a bit shocking, the cultural differences are really big compared to Earth, or even human society in here as well… Well, not everyone, Dwarves seemed to be like this but Myriad was just covering his face in embarrassment.

“W-Well, can we go now?” I sighed. “Also can you explain me the benefits of the guild while we are on our way there?”

“Sure, sure~!” Helga said.

As we walked across the various streets of the Stoneville city, we saw many of the enormous golems walk through, some were moving like carriages, and others were moving carriages. There were even a few ones piloted by dwarves inside, who were small enough to barely fit in their chest, it seems they used them to lift heavy objects or build their enormous houses and buildings.

“You see, when you register a guild, you access several benefits in exchange for paying for its creation, which is very costly and a big investment.” Said Helga. “First of all, you can rent various golems from the facility for big discounts, so we can move stuff quicker, you also get an increase in the money you earn by selling items in all affiliated shops, and above all, you get discounts from taxes that you get discounted from selling your ores, and above all, you also access discounts from these affiliated shops, specific ores and other things that cannot be easily brought, even such things as food, will be cheaper. And not only that, but guilds can also be inherited, so my kids will have the guild when their old hag and their papa pass away to support them. I’m doing this as a big-time investment while looking into the future.”

“Oh, so you guys did it also for your kids…” I said.

“Yeah, not only ours, Blackard and the other dwarves as well.” Myriad said. “Most of them got families, having a guild to support them is a big thing. It could become a family business as time goes on.”

“We dwarves created guilds as a way to help our workers and let them earn benefits, while also keeping control over how much it is mined and extracted. If there is no order, our economy will fall, so we created guilds to take over all of this and maintain order.” Aquamarine said.

“I see…”

When we reached the Guild Registration Building, we were amazed by its size, this building was probably as big as a ten-floor building from back in Earth. It was a rather modern-looking city thanks to the advancements and help that golems provided to the dwarven society.

“And here we are! Now let’s go register, there’s no time to waste!” Helga said, leading the way.
