Chapter 871 - 'One Last Worry'
The ordinary people didn't have any relation with the world of ability users. This is true. But the ability users were once ordinary people too.
Ainsley couldn't just ignore the ordinary people, not to mention that the number of ordinary people in this world was larger than ability users.
Although the ability users ruled the world, the citizens were still ordinary people. The ability users also needed the ordinary people in their life.
A guild is a powerhouse with the best image in nary people's eyes.
When ordinary people awakened their abilities, if they came from ordinary families, they would immediately think of joining a guild.
Of course, they had to awaken the suitable ability to join the guilds. Otherwise, they couldn't join even if they wanted to.
Most ability users who couldn't join guilds would join powerhouses leaning towards the government because it was usually the safest and didn't endanger their lives.
Unless they joined the military, of course.
The more rebellious ability users went to join the mafia family. If they're only low-level ability users, they will join the low-rank mafia families.
There were a lot of such small mafia families in small cities or villages.
If they're a bit better, they could join the mid-rank mafia family, such as the previous Sloan Family.
But only talented ones could join the high-rank mafia family, such as the current Sloan Family.
Those who joined the Sloan Family when they were still a mid-rank family or when the Sloan Family had just recruited new members after the Aretha War….
These people were the luckiest. The Sloan Family still accepted solo or dual ability users at that time.
They even accepted ordinary people to work as servants at the mansion.
Now, even the servants had to be at last a solo ability user, even if their ability was useless in a fight.
Of course, the old servants were still there, but if the Sloan Family recruited new members, the requirement would be higher than before.
Now, they only accepted at least dual ability users as the mafia member, and the ability had to be useful in a fight or unique.
Now, the family even started to accept wandering alchemists who came because of Axelle's mysterious prestige at the Sloan Family's potion auction.
The potion auction was still held regularly, and it became one of the Sloan Family's pillars.
A lot of young alchemists who had just awakened their abilities but weren't good enough to join the alchemist guild chose to join the Sloan Family.
With this, Axelle finally had his own subordinates, and these people didn't care about Axelle's cursed bloodline.
As long as Axelle was kind and talented, these vigorous alchemists didn't care about Axelle's origin. Not to mention that Axelle still had the blood of an elf.
No alchemist would refuse to meet an elf alchemist, even when the elf was only a halfling.
Everything was going well, but Deestar's trending topic on the internet really disturbed Ainsley.
She immediately held an emergency meeting and discussed the trouble.
"Deestar is my father. He's the Sloan Family's former family head. I don't want him to join the guild. But what should I do to not anger his fans?"
After all, the Sloan Family also had many businesses related to the common people.
Deestar was really a popular celebrity and often endorsed many products and such.
What if his angry fans boycotted the Sloan Family's products?
Ainsley even heard that a lot of influential ability users, especially young girls, we're Deestar's diehard fans.
When Leroy came to her birthday party, the female guests didn't guess that he's Deestar, maybe because it was so tense back then.
Their focus should be on the chaotic birthday party rather than on their idol.
Plus, Leroy didn't appear in front of all the guests for a long time before they went to the connecting hall.
Thinking back……if someone recognised Leroy as Deestar, would there be a scandal?
Hearing Ainsley's heartfelt question about how to reject her father without angering his fans, the family's higher-ups felt distressed for the baby.
That scum shouldn't dream of joining their guild! Not after he abandoned Ain when she was only three years old, pushing her to be a puppet family head!
"How about we reply to his post vaguely? Just say that we will accept whoever passes the screening, including background and personal character screening."
After all, if they accepted spies or enemies or people with bad characters, even if they couldn't betray the guild because of the soul oath's harsh punishment which was equal to death…
It was still risky.
There could be a lot of people who were willing to die just to give important information to their employer.
Who couldn't prevent this, right?
That's why the initial screening was really tight and serious.
So far, even the Sloan Family often did sudden inspections on the members, to see if they had any spies or people who died out of the blue.
The guild would also be like that.
Deestar, a.k.a Leroy, wouldn't risk his life just to be a spy. They all knew that. But Leroy was somewhat a traitor.
They couldn't accept traitors in the guild.
If those who left the Sloan Family in the beginning knew about this, they would shamelessly go back to the family and use Leroy as an example.
They couldn't do that! Even though Leroy was once a family head.
A traitor would always be a traitor.
"If we reply to Deestar with a neutral stance, even the fans can't blame us. Some extreme ones will, but the passerby will not have a negative impression toward us."
The public relations staff's idea was good. Ainsley also thought of the same thing.
But she still had one last worry.
