The D-Rank Guild Master of the No. 1 Guild

The following content is limited to basic stats. The stat window for unique abilities will be opened after round 1.5 ends. Therefore, the status window remains unchanged for now.

I was looking forward to the unique ability stats being opened, so it’s a bit disappointing.

Well, if everything had been opened all at once in Guild Mode, my head would have exploded.

Let’s just think of it as buying a little time to rest with round 1.5.

Here is how to increase the basic stats of Health/Strength/Agility.

A manual for increasing basic stats was delivered to the guild masters.

“…….”

50 sit-ups = Health +1, Strength +1

1 minute of squats = Health +1, Strength +1

Jogging (speed 8km/h, 10 minutes) = Health +1, Agility +1

…

…

…

All the real-world users out there, listen up even though you won’t hear this.

It seems like game characters just get their stats up over time without changing their basic appearance settings, right?

That’s because they put in a lot of unseen effort…

Laughter echoed from the corridor. It was a mix of Lilith’s laughter and Gio’s dazed voice.

Unahar was out of sight, but the golden hair sticking out from behind the flower pot seemed like it was him, and Kanel had already gone up to the second floor to check his personal room.

I stood up from my seat with an unusually stern face.

I heard Unahar calling from behind, but I just went straight to my personal room on the second floor.

Sorry, Lilith, I can’t play with you.

Sorry, my guild members.

Rest time is over now.

* * *

About five minutes later, I came out of my personal room again.

Then I gathered the peacefully wandering guild members in the underground training room.

“Rudel, that outfit is…?”

Unahar was the first to cautiously ask. His voice was a bit stiff, seeing my unusually stern appearance.

Reflected in the wall mirror of the training room, I was wearing workout clothes with a black jumper and a cap pulled low.

Instructor Rudel.

“From now on, everyone will check the papers handed out by the instructor.”

“Rudel, why are you talking like that?”

“No unrelated talk.”

Gio’s voice of disbelief was drowned out by my words. Grumbling, he eventually accepted the paper I handed him.

“My name is written here? Twenty minutes of squats a day, divided into one-minute sets of twenty… Yoga poses, a hundred of them, divided into five sets…? What is this?”

Lilith murmured innocently.

“This is a day’s training, organized considering your current basic stats and capabilities. From now on, make sure to complete the exercise quota every day.”

Gio, looking at his own paper, glanced over at Unahar’s paper next to him.

“Hey Rudel, why do I have more numbers than the handsome guy? More numbers mean it’s harder, right?”

“No talking back! And make sure to remember your guild members’ names!”

Gio flinched at my voice, which echoed off the ceiling. He glanced at Unahar.

“What’s your name?”

Lilith, slightly frightened by the shouting, blinked her eyes in surprise.

Although my heart softened a bit because of Lilith’s wide, blinking eyes, I couldn’t back down here.

I deliberately put on a stern expression while looking at Lilith.

“If you don’t complete your daily exercise quota, there will be consequences.”

“What kind of consequences?” Gio, of course, was looking to pick a fight.

…I don’t know, I’m just saying it.

“Kanel is already doing it. Everyone, follow Kanel’s example.”

A black head bobbed up and down at my feet with precise movements, like a push-up machine, steadily counting.

“By the way, if you lie about completing the exercise, it will be obvious. The amount of stat increase depends on the exercise volume. On the other hand, if you exceed the exercise quota, you will be welcomed with open arms.”

No sooner had I finished speaking, Unahar immediately bent down. Lilith followed suit next.

Gio watched Lilith, then glanced at me before reluctantly joining the exercise.

I hope all the guild members know that I have the most exercise to do.

After taking off my cap and returning to my original self, Rudel, I took deep breaths and started the strenuous exercise.

Since the unique ability training isn’t open yet, we need to at least increase our basic stats.

Not just me, but all the guild members!

Whether this is a training ground or a gym.

‘Once the unique ability training room is open, it might finally feel like this isn’t just a gym.’

While I was running on the treadmill for 30 minutes, another official notice arrived for the guild leaders.

Since I was already jogging, I could check the status window without stopping.

Guild leaders can freely view their guild members’ status windows. Other guild members can only share their status windows if they want to show them.

All guild leaders can see each guild member’s status window.

So, what about my privilege as a possessed one…? Originally, only I could see others’ status windows.

Well, I can still access other guilds’ status windows. My cheat key is still intact.

Up until now, I could open others’ status windows directly without any buttons, but now my status window has a new ‘View Guild Member Status Window’ button.

Now it’s officially open, aside from the illegal route. Let’s test it.

[Name] Unahar / [Level] 25

[Gender] Male / [Age] 23

[Intelligence] Upper-middle / [Killing Intent] Middle

* * *

[Health] 2433 / B

[Strength] 2127 / B

[Agility] 2775 / B

It opened just as well as my cheat.

Also, guild leaders can check the ‘Vitality’ and ‘Emotional State’ of guild members for management purposes. The ‘Emotional State’ only shows the most dominant emotion the target is feeling.

An unexpected feature. Even my cheat couldn’t show this.

I immediately checked Unahar, who was the closest.

[Name] Unahar

[Vitality] 100 / [Emotional State] Calm

‘Emotional State’ and ‘Vitality.’

This feature will be quite useful.

If a guild member in the field seems to be in danger based on their status, I can go rescue them.

By the way.

I stopped the treadmill and came down, panting.

If the guild leader collapses while exercising, it wouldn’t do much for my dignity and would cause chaos among the kids.

‘Let’s rest a bit, taking a break won’t set me back.’

Unahar was already sitting on the sofa in the corner of the training room. I sat down about 50cm away from him, sprawling out.

“Are you okay?”

It’s the first time I’ve seen you so drenched in sweat. Unahar asked worriedly, seeing how soaked I was.

“I’m fine.”

I leaned my head back, almost lying on the sofa. Even with my eyes closed, I could feel Unahar staring at me, but I didn’t look back.

I still had the status window open. The [Emotional State] window of Unahar, which I checked earlier, was still there.

[Emotional State] Lust

What?

I quickly turned to look at Unahar.

But Unahar had just gotten up and was walking away, showing his back. So, I couldn’t see his face.

[Emotional State] Confusion

Did I see it wrong?

No, it can’t be. My eyes aren’t that bad. I clearly saw those two characters.

I propped my chin and thought. What was that?

Ah, maybe if you suddenly have a dirty thought, such a word appears?

Unahar, do you usually think dirty thoughts often?

These characters are too realistic, really. But, well… if he’s a healthy male, I guess it’s possible.

Having understood that, I decided to pretend I didn’t see it for the sake of Unahar, who unknowingly had his embarrassing thoughts exposed.

* * *

Ah, here it is.

As soon as I finished exercising, I went into the guild leader’s office and found the [Guild Member Emotional State Inquiry] settings.

The manual listed dozens of basic emotions.

I scrolled through the list and found the phrase I was looking for, setting that emotion to ‘inquiry forbidden.’

No matter what, peeking at characters’ ‘lust’ seemed too much of an invasion of privacy.

And it was also quite embarrassing for me.

I deactivated the ability to view emotions related to lust and silently apologized to Unahar for the unintentional invasion of privacy. After leaving the guild leader’s office, I freely used the emotional state inquiry function on our guild members.

Gio was sitting next to Lilith.

[Name] Gio

[Emotional State] Excitement

Even coming within a 5-meter radius of Lilith, Gio’s emotional state changes to ‘Excitement,’ as if he’s getting a buff. It’s quite annoying. I want to sabotage it.

‘A beast clinging to our Lilith.’

Every time I see it, I hold Lilith’s hand and take her far away. Gio’s longing eyes following us don’t bother me at all.

When I reached the entrance of the first floor, I heard the sounds of a scuffle between two men in the hallway between the library and the game room.

I headed that way.

[Name] Unahar

[Emotional State] Annoyed

[Name] Kanel

[Emotional State] Annoyed

This emotional state inquiry function is much more useful than I thought.

It allows me to quickly intervene when guild members have minor disputes.

“Can’t you understand when I tell you to step aside and let me through?”

Unahar was angry, while Kanel stood there with his arms crossed, barely listening. It seemed they were arguing over something trivial.

“Sorry about that. I thought you were asking someone else to move.”

“Who else is here besides you?”

It really was nothing…

I decided to give up on mediating. Let them handle it themselves.

Kanel, from his stat window and awakening lines, seems like a smart and meticulous character.

Yet, it seems like there’s an ‘on/off’ switch for his attention span.

When he’s in a peaceful state, he doesn’t bother thinking at all, leading to frequent misunderstandings.

Yesterday, he was sliding down the stair railings with a serious face.

[Emotional State] Excitement

No matter how much he looks like an adult man, he’s still just a kid at 20.

He’d go down and then climb back up to slide down again. When he saw me watching, he even invited me, saying, “Would you like to join?”

He seems like a bit of an oddball.

But his distinctive character makes him unique, which should be appealing to our guild viewers.
