27 Awa
The next day, Samael's courtyard.
Sunlight shone through the window illuminating the living room, five sleeping bodies were scattered around, it seemed that the group of friends fell asleep thinking of a guild name.
Samael got up first as his body is used to waking up early, he got up to take a walk maybe the fresh morning air could give him an epiphany. As he was thinking he strayed further and further away from his courtyard, reaching the school's private forest. He strolled past the viridian trees, the morning dew rolled of the leaves, the smells of life filled his nose, it was beautiful.
The yellow glow from the sun pierced through the towering trees illuminating the forest floor. Appearing, in one of the ray's of sunlight was an unconscious girl. Even though Sami dislikes trouble he's not heartless so he quickly checked on the teenager.
As he got a closer he look, he could see the girl's features, she was an elf with beautiful and radiant ebony/dark brown skin her long black dreads had golden threads running through it. Her pointed ears were decorated with viridian and white earrings, she was wearing all black attire making her stand out in the glowing woods. She looked quite petite, her height looked to be around 1.57 metres (I changed it, made her shorter).
Her seemingly cute face was covered with a distraught expression she seemed to be having a horrifying nightmare.
Samael began shaking her, trying to wake up and it clearly worked as the elf's eyes fluttered open revealing her bright golden eyes that were filled with confusion and panic.
"Ahh!" the elf screamed, "Who are you?"
"My name is Samael I was just taking a walk and I found you unconscious in the forest, you seemed to be having a bad dream." Sami gently answered, "Are you alright?"
"Wait what did you just say." her naturally joyful voice asked absolutely shocked.
"Are you alright??" Samael repeated beginning to think the elf may actually be not ok.
The elf stared at Samael in shock, gazing at his charming face. She quickly looked down in embarrassment and said, "It.... it's nothing, I was just a little dazed."
Sami knew she was lying but didn't press the issue as he didn't care that much.
"Well what are you doing here, you definitely have a residence of your own?"
"O...oh I just like the forest, I'm an elf and all, ha ha." the elf laughed dryly, this was clearly another lie.
Samael looked at her weirdly but didn't say anything, each to their own I guess. "Alright at least tell me your name and your class because I don't remember seeing you in the combat trials."
The elf looked relieved, she evidently felt uncomfortable lying, "My name is Awa and I'm the current Rank 1 in the freshman Healing Classes." she said looking proudly at Sami's shocked expression.
"Eh, could be weirder, I'm Samael and I'm the Rank 1 freshman in the Combat Classes." he said outstretching his hand.
"Well hello Samael." she said also stretching out her hand, the two hands, big and small met in the middle and connected. "To us Rank 1s." she joked.
"To us Rank 1s"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The two rank 1s split ways and went to their respective classes.
"Where have you been?" Alice asked.
"I went for a stroll, to see if it could help me come up with a name for the guild and I met the Rank 1 healer on the way and she was a very beautiful elf." Samael said jokingly.
"Beautiful, huh." Alice replied staring dangerously at her childhood friend.
Sami stroked his chin, his face seemed to be drowned in memories, his expression wretched, "Very Beautiful."
"BASTARD."
Samael burst out laughing looking at the aggrieved royal princess and put his arm around her shoulder, "I'm joking but I do think she will be a good addition to the guild and I have actually decided on a name for it."
The other four looked at him intrigued after all they hadn't thought of anything yet.
"Void's Owl ." he said, "The Owl represents wisdom and except from Feng Yutu none of us our daft."
"Hey!" Feng Yutu complained, Samael was like the bully big brother.
Samael smiled at Yutu'er and continued, "The void represents our journey towards immortality, people will create legends based on us and millions shall look up to us."
"Our emblem will be an owl behind the world it's huge wings cover it, if we get a talented enough forger maybe we could make something similar to Athena's heart not the increase in comprehension but the living owl automaton."
"We can make the automatons be able to call upon each other and as you rank up in the guild, your owl can be upgraded increasing the functions."
The four teenagers' eyes shone with excitement, the question that plagued them for a whole night was finally solved and Samael even created new ideas too they were ecstatic.
Xiao Ying looked at her watch and realised they were late for class as they delayed so much when talking about the guild so they all had to rush to class.
Idalia was standing on the stage and stared coldly at the group of five, "Why are you late to my lesson?"
Alice came forward to explain, "Miss we are all deeply sorry, we were discussing plans for our guild and lost track of time."
Ms Erus looked at Samael playfully and said, "As long as he apologises I will forget about it."
"Sorry." Samael said instantly unfazed that this was supposed to be an attack against him.
Idalia looked at him shocked, surprised that a noble could put down their pride and say sorry. "Fine! get to your seats" she said irritated.
"Yes miss." the five sat down.
Idalia finally began teaching, it was a generic lesson just going in more depth on techniques to use while fighting. "Alright class, since this day is finished, I would like everyone to announce their if they are creating a guild or not and if you are please say your guild names."
Alice began "Void's Owl. Guild."
Xiao Ying, Yutu'er and Acala all said they belonged to Void's Owl.
"Void's Owl, I just want to say I will be the chef for my guild so once a week you will be able to taste my cooking furthermore I have a lot of money as I have 2% share in Fortuna Inc. so I can definitely support our guild during the start up."
"Rich noble bastard." Idalia muttered.
Zi Tian went after, "The Empress Pavilion. Guild, Woman ONLY" she indifferently replied.
"Iron and Blood." Bellona spoke excitedly.
Imum the lich went next, "I've decided to join Void's Owl as I don't think I have the qualities to start my own party or guild." he meekly said.
Many of the others decided to create their own guilds after all they are the pinnacle of geniuses and still have their arrogance. Long Ke Ai and Eos both joined Void's Owl due to food reasons lol and Marianne made a guild called Luxure (French for lust, if you didn't know the Marianne is from France). Rosa also joined Void's owl, her eyes glowed a magical and starry blue when she did.
"Well everyone you can post your recruitment notices, also only the Heaven classes can make guilds or else there would be too many and everyone else can only make parties." Idalia said commencing the end to today's lesson.
The group of five quickly left ready to put out their guild notice and headhunt for some talent but they heard a pixie like voice calling them.
"Mr Rank 1, wait up for me."
"Well fuck me." Mr Rank 1 said.

Info of the day - Natal Weapons
Growth weapons are hard to create and new equipment will take you a while to get used to so the technique of Natal weapons was invented.
Natal weapons are when you connect a weapon with your Dantian, allowing you to affectively make it a growth weapon, it will feed of your aura nourish itself and become stronger.
However if you were to break your Natal Weapon you could become injured, lose all your cultivation and even die, it is a very dangerous technique but many people still do it as weapons are your partners for life and many people dislike changing said partner.
A benefit of Natal weapons is that if you break a Natal weapon you can sense the pieces due to your connection and repair it, you may not gain all your cultivation back if you repair it but it is still a bonus lol.
