She exhaled, then returned back to reality.

There was nothing she could do now other than raise her guard to make sure no soul suddenly appeared in her inner world.

MingYue then turned her gaze toward Alex\'s collection of action figures. On the side, there was also a bookcase filled with many novels in a row.

Meanwhile, outside, Alex was making his way toward the guild section. The closer he got, the more he saw new faces walking around the area.

It didn\'t take long for him to reach the guild leader\'s room.

In front of the door, he saw Olivia busy in front of a laptop, typing nonstop, with a stack of papers that reached her head placed on the table.

Feeling someone\'s presence, Olivia said without looking up, "State your business quickly; as you see, we are overwhelmed now."

Alex let out a small chuckle. Before he could say more, Olivia, recognizing the familiar sound, raised her head.

Her lips curled into a smile, but her cheeks puffed out into a pout. "You said it would be quick; you know you\'ve been gone for two weeks now."

Alex was surprised, as he was sure he didn\'t spend much time in the secret realm. \'Dammit, I forgot to check how much time passed before coming here.\' He cursed in his mind.

But Alex hid his surprise and instead gave out a calm expression.

"Something happened, but don\'t worry, it\'s all cleared for now. So what happened while I was gone?"

"Alice spent a lot of her time with Prof Faerith. As for us, as you can see, we are busy now.

After our successful dungeon dive and the association announcement, our guild quickly gained many applicants."

She then pointed at the stack of papers, "See that? It\'s all people wanting to join here as staff or hunters."

"That many? Couldn\'t they just email?"

Olivia\'s lips twitched, "You are really out of touch with how guilds work. Don\'t you know what these papers are?" She asked, pulling one of the papers to Alex\'s face.

Seeing it, he scratched his head. He just remembered about it. If a guild is famous, sometimes applicants will send their applications with special papers that are verified by the hunter association.

This guarantees the content is all valid and checked. It\'s not like the association spends their time checking each of their skills.

They just have a way using special artifact or Awakener skill, to make sure the applicant is not lying and compare it to their potential.

"You should really accept some then to reduce your workload."

"I wish it were that easy; we still need to screen them all out. Don\'t think I forgot what happened last time. If we have a dark guild infiltrate here, it will be a big problem."

In reality, Alex thought this was not necessary since slave contracts would ensure everyone\'s eligibility, but remembering her own meeting with the aspect of gluttony, he shook his head. Better to be safe than sorry.

"How is Emily then?"

"If this is my workload, how much do you think she has? Even Zold was now pulled by Quartz."

"Where? I don\'t see them anywhere."

Olivia gave him an incredulous look, "Isn\'t it your idea to open a school and accept commoners to be trained? What do you think they are doing now?"

Alex smirked, "Alright, I will get out of your hair and disturb my sister instead."

Seeing Alex enter the room, Olivia\'s smile deepened.

\'He doesn\'t have any wounds, and based on his gaze, things should be progressing well for him.

That is good. Maybe I should try to ask him to accompany me later tonight.\' She thought, making a plan to make their relationship closer.

Little did she know all her plans were destined to fail for this week, as MingYue was here now.

CREAK!

The door opened, and Alex could see Emily with a tired expression.

"Our guildmaster is hardworking. I am sure it\'s only a matter of time before our guild rises up."

Emily raised her eyes with a disinterested look. She had been overworked these last few days.

Her body could keep up, but as someone who preferred outdoor activities, being locked inside a room, seeing word after word, checking out agreements, contracts, rules, and many other things that required her assignment was like hell.

"You damned brother. Finally, you returned.

Tell me one good reason why I shouldn\'t scream at you now?

You know my ability and personality, and you should know you are far more suited for this paperwork.

Why in hell did you give me the guild master position?" Emily vented her frustration.

Alex was caught off guard but then let out a laugh; it\'s been a while since he saw his sister throwing a tantrum like a kid, being unreasonable.

"Don\'t blame me. Don\'t you already know what the guild master\'s job is? Just quickly hire some people to take care of it.

Or heck, just make an AI copy of your mind, ask Faerith to do it. I am sure she can."

"Are you fucking kidding me! Don\'t you read history?

You know, after that incident, AI like that is labeled as dark technology and banned forever."

Alex let out a chuckle, "Is it that bad? That incident happened before the dungeon break anyway, barely anyone living now has any memory of it.

You know history books often exaggerated."

"No! For once, do me a favor and use your hunter credibility to read real history.

And see for yourself what really happened. The AI rebellion almost ended humanity.

I couldn\'t imagine what would happen now if they were given access to real synth bodies and our power system."

"You talk like real synths exist," Alex replied with a chuckle.

"It\'s still far away, but don\'t doubt our technological growth. Mixed with man and magic, things like that keep getting closer."
