Eight days after Ron settled down, his first subordinate came to him. He was a man named Richard.
Ron was surprised that the first person to arrive was a man, because this was a matriarchal world, and women should be more outgoing!
Since he was already there, Ron met Richard briefly at the Gugo Hotel in Berg City.
Having tested all his potential subordinates over the past six months, Ron decided to stop testing them. He led Richard to the Gugo Hotel, and before leaving, Ron instructed the hotel receptionist to have someone wait if anyone else was looking for him.
The Gugo Hotel was certainly not Ron's secret base; it was just the initial meeting place. Ron took Richard to an old house in the suburbs of the city. It was a large and quiet place, a good place for multiple people to train.
Having plenty of gold coins means he can do whatever he wants. Ron even bought up some unused areas nearby. The suburbs are different from the city center, but he still has enough gold coins for the early stages of the event.
Ron took Richard to the place.
"Come on, Richard, how about that room? You can stay there for now!"
“Okay, Mr. Zhelei.”
When others called him by an alias, he corrected them, saying, "From now on, you should call me Ron. My full name is Ron Lance. As for why I'm using an alias, take this and you'll understand after you read it. I still have to go and greet other people. You should settle in and get some things you need!"
After saying this, Ron tossed Richard a gold coin. One gold coin was equal to ten thousand copper coins, enough for Richard to buy things.
In his conversation, Ron gave Richard a book on the basics of Source Arts. In addition to the basic theories of Source Arts, there were also simple minor Source Arts spells. As long as Richard accumulated enough Source Arts power, he would soon be able to use his first Source Arts spell.
With the first Source Technique completed, the facts would naturally increase Ron's persuasiveness. Therefore, Ron made the Basic Source Technique manual as simple as possible. There would be other Source Technique practice tasks later on, step by step, to train the initial team well.
Seeing Richard carrying a booklet and a gold coin, ready to go back and prepare, Ron became curious again. Before leaving, he asked, "Richard, why did you come to find me so quickly? Remember when you said you were coming, you should be prepared for a long time."
“Replying to Mr. Rez... no, to Mr. Ron, my mistress is not here. I asked my father, and he said it’s up to me. I, Richard, want to be a strong person like Mr. Ron. My family is not well-off, and I want to share the burden with my mistress.” Richard said with great determination.
this……
Ron was hearing for the first time that he should share the burden with the mistress of the house. His father really did stay at home and dress up. In the past six months, Ron had been going out to work for various reasons. He was actually one of the few men who could be respected.
Alright! Richard's here, but he's not here to learn how to make a living from Ron, he's here to learn about the extraordinary…
Ron returned to the hotel.
After waiting and waiting, Ron finally received another subordinate that evening. This was a woman, whose name was... oh, it was Bernice.
She arrived specifically at night. She found Ron and saw him leading her outside. What? The wilderness? She wasn't mentally prepared for this.
Upon arrival, accommodations were arranged, and Ron disappeared without a trace.
Bernice stared blankly at a gold coin and a booklet. (′｀;) ?
the next day.
Ron waited for two more people in the morning.
Wait a minute, something's not right. A housewife is carrying her daughter, and the housewife's angry expression is quite strange.
really.
Ron was scolded in the hotel's living room. The mistress of the house said, "You man, just because you're a little good-looking, you slut! You dare to seduce my pillar of the family? You've gone too far! Are men this bold now?"
"..."
Ron didn't feel wronged at all; instead, he felt like laughing. What should he do? It was so funny.
Okay! Now that he's finally being called a slut, Ron thinks he should play along and at least conform to the feminist world's setting.
Despite being reprimanded in a surprising turn of events, the matriarch eventually returned home with her daughter, the pillar of her household. Ron watched as a future extraordinary subordinate departed, and he didn't try to stop him. What a coincidence!
Don't force things that aren't meant to be.
When Ron returned to his room, well, the staff looked at him strangely, but thankfully, the staff didn't seem inclined to kick him out.
It was consensual; he seduced her, the shopkeeper made his money, but Ron paid a whole month's room fee.
The next day.
Ron waited all day, taking the opportunity to meditate and practice his Source Arts, but no one came.
The next day, Ron was greeted by a female subordinate...
The next day, no one came.
And then the next day, no one was there…
...
...
Before he knew it, the month was almost up. On the last day, Ron was greeted by two of his subordinates and two women.
Over the past month, women have been much more outgoing!
Ron waited until evening, then checked out, ending his waiting time. To the others who arrived late, Ron simply said, "We're not meant to be."
The last two women were much more proper than the ones who came before them. They weren't there to find pretty boys; they had come at the last minute and had seen through Ron's various hints from the beginning.
Upon arriving at the training grounds, the two women were not surprised to receive the Source Technique Book and gold coins. With the deadline approaching, the two women seemed to have struggled with their thoughts. The world had changed drastically, and as the young pillars of their families, how could they not be home at this crucial moment? How could they trust their useless older and younger brothers?
Before the two women arrived, they followed Ron's hints and repeatedly instructed their families on how to avoid the initial calamities. In addition, both women came from relatively well-off families, and they finally persuaded their families to move to the vicinity of the police station.
Alright, in the old courtyard hall in the suburbs at night, with lights on everywhere, Ron, sitting on a high place, gathered all his men.
Of the dozens of subordinates on the list, twelve arrived.
Overall, it was pretty good, and Ron was satisfied.
There are twelve people, nine women and three men.
Ron began his first speech at the rally, but of course, before he started, he had to teach them a lesson with facts.
With a wave of his hand, Ron silenced everyone, and they all stared at him.
Then, Ron began chanting a Source Magic incantation: "..."
After reciting the complex incantation, Ron uttered a final, soft cry: "Wind, come!"
Blades of wind shot out from the source array.
With the incantation combined with mental energy, the incantation was completed, and the source array was formed, with wind blades within the array resembling sharp blades.
Ron's target was the living room wall. Because Ron intentionally controlled it, the wind blades did not penetrate the wall, but left deep marks on it.
The subordinates below gasped in surprise.
Ron didn't use the basic version of Source Magic tricks; the two new, rational women were convinced of this.
“Huggins…”
"Roland... is indeed extraordinary!"
"No, he should be called Chief Ron now. No wonder Ron Lance used an alias. Is this the Source Technique? So powerful!"
"..."
The two women murmured and talked to themselves.
The newcomers and the old subordinates who already knew the Origin Magic Technique each had different states of mind.
Ron quietly observed the expressions on his men's faces.
Okay, that's about it.
The semi-realistic illusionary source of magic meant that Ron didn't feel much like dealing with NPCs. The semi-realistic aspect meant there were various possibilities, and Ron always treated his subordinates as real fellow human beings.
Ron continued, "This is only a low-to-mid-level Source Art. I believe you will master it soon. Keep it up! From now on, our organization will have an official name: Source Art Society! I am your leader and also the president."
I had considered names like Source Art Sect, Source Art School, Source Art Stream, etc., but in terms of the times, the most appropriate names for school clubs and communities are "So-and-so Club".
The first Genshu Club was established.
