Clan Establishnt (4)
“I want to join too!”
Park Yoon-seo spoke up as if feeling wronged.
Inside the café they rushed to after class ended.
Beside her sat her best friends Song Hyun-a and Choi Arin.
And their shared interest was only one thing,
“Senior’s new clan! I want to join too.”
The new clan that Do Jae-hyun was establishing.
This was currently the hottest issue not only in the academy, but in all of Korea.
It wasn’t simply because a student was creating a clan.
-Student Holders can also beco clan mbers!
Through an agreent between the association and the academy, there was a condition that allowed student Holders to be accepted as clan mbers, just for this ti.
This special condition was making the hearts of all students in the academy race.
Not only could they shorten the 3-year study period and imdiately start clan life, but the master of this clan was Do Jae-hyun, who was rewriting the history of Holders.
The students who had directly witnessed his achievents and status all hoped to join the new clan, without exception.
Needless to say, Park Yoon-seo, who had even joined the fan club, was no different.
These days, whenever she t with friends, she constantly talked about wanting to join Do Jae-hyun’s clan.
“Wake up. First-years can’t join.”
However, Choi Arin always poured cold water on her hopes.
At her cold words, Park Yoon-seo’s expression crumpled.
“Ah, why! I’m not exactly lacking in talent compared to others.”
Park Yoon-seo was the top student among the new assassin-type students this year.
She had an impressive setup with the epic rune [Chilling Ambush] and various flashy auxiliary runes.
For a freshman, she had outstanding proficiency and very high stats.
It was clear that if she continued like this, she would beco quite a promising talent in the assassin field.
But Choi Arin still shook her head with a negative expression.
“Clans aren’t organizations that recruit based on talent. They recruit professional, skilled individuals.”
“Arin is right. I want to join so badly too, but we haven’t proven anything yet. How would the senior know anything about us to recruit us? There’s nothing known about us.”
Song Hyun-a, who usually acted like Yoon-seo’s rival, agreed this ti.
She had admired Do Jae-hyun even before awakening as a Holder, and was an ardent fan who had been there from the start when the fan club was ford.
If you had to pick who among them wanted to join Do Jae-hyun’s clan the most, it would undoubtedly be Song Hyun-a.
But.
“He didn’t even post a recruitnt notice in the first place.”
Even if they wanted to join, there was no way.
Because there was no recruitnt notice.
Do Jae-hyun didn’t post a clan mber recruitnt notice, and only recruited clan mbers through personal interviews using his acquaintances and connections.
Naturally, the first-year freshn who had no connection to him…
Couldn’t even make it into the limited number of 5 spots.
Because of this, there was a flood of regretful criticism towards Do Jae-hyun, but experts evaluated his recruitnt policy as effective.
For a new clan that hasn’t yet established its system, they said that an official open recruitnt for clan mbers could actually be harmful.
“Tch. I’ll just have a chocolate latte.”
Park Yoon-seo clicked her tongue in disappointnt and brought the straw to her mouth.
With that, the three of them changed the subject.
“…Did you hear that Holder Lim Hyun is also joining the new clan this ti?”
“I heard Holder Jeong Seon-young is joining too.”
“Wow, then it’s basically an Avengers of unaffiliated Holders…”
…Although the changed subject was still about Do Jae-hyun’s clan.
Even Choi Arin, who used to always shake her head as if tired of these conversations, was now actively participating in such talks.
At so point, she had started to be drawn into this peculiar fandom.

The clan mber recruitnt that had seed so distant finally ended.
Although the departnt setup and detailed operational plans hadn’t been implented yet, the most important thing was still the recruitnt of human resources, the clan mbers.
The minimum number of clan mbers for a small clan is 80.
Of course, this number excludes non-Holder employees like those in the finance team.
Our clan gathered a total of 82 clan mbers.
17 were third-year student Holders.
I mainly selected seniors who were part of , and also recruited only talents whose skills had been publicly verified.
“…?”
And I’m not sure if this person should be considered a third-year.
Soone who was a third-year until last year…
A certain graduate also ca to .
“It’s been a while, President. I also want to join the newly created clan.”
The forr president of and forr vice president of .
The top fire attribute talent who had stimulated Kang Juyeon.
The valedictorian of the mage class, Yoon Ji-ah.
At her sudden appearance, I asked with a blank face.
“Senior, why are you here?”
“I told you. I want to join the new clan that the President is making.”
“…But what about the Judgnt of Fire?”
Yoon Ji-ah was considered the top talent among last year’s graduates.
Because of this, she had quite easily joined the clan that she had hoped for.
From what I heard from Kang Juyeon, she had joined the hunting team and was adapting well, so I never thought she would suddenly leave and co to find like this.
Yoon Ji-ah looked at with a slight smile.
“The Judgnt of Fire is certainly a good clan. As expected of a large clan, they have excellent welfare for clan mbers, and there are many opportunities to achieve results as a clan mber. But… I never felt like I wanted to continue activities there with all my heart. That’s natural, right? How many Holders are there who work so romantically?
She placed her hand on her chest and said, “You know, when I heard the news that the president was forming a clan, my heart started racing. It was pounding uncontrollably. I guess I must have missed the circle activities where I fought alongside the president and other mbers.”
“……”
Yoon Ji-ah smiled again and extended her hand to .
It was certainly the elegant gesture of a respected senior that I had often seen until just last year.
“You’ll accept , won’t you, president?”
How could I refuse her when she asked like this?
I gave a faint, bitter smile and took her hand.
“It’s not president anymore, but clan master now.”
With that, including graduate Yoon Ji-ah, a total of 17 third-year student Holders were selected.
And then ca the second-year selection.
Unlike the third years, this group was filled to capacity with 20 mbers.
There were certainly many talented and skilled individuals among the second years.
While the dia praises them as the ‘golden generation’, it’s not just empty hype.
First, there are my four friends who have been with since we were freshn, handling party hunting, dungeon conquests, and various other tasks together.
Kim Chae-eun, Kang Ju-yeon, Moon Ga-eun, Park Jin-woo.
Now, rather than calling them my friends, the title of top dostic prospects suits these promising individuals better.
My reliable companions were naturally given a free pass.
And another golden talent from the second year.
“If you’ll allow , I’d like to join too, president.”
The blacksmith Holder from the special division, Lee Hyun-ho, also expressed his desire to join.
“Hwang Seong-yeon is the nesis I must catch. If the president’s clan is going after him, I want to join that clan too.”
As long as his enemy lives, Lee Hyun-ho’s revenge is not over.
Sohow he learned that the clan I was forming would be pursuing Hwang Seong-yeon and Ludenark, and he imdiately ca to wanting to join the clan.
“I, I want to join too! I couldn’t join the circle before, but…”
Choi Yoo-min, with whom I’ve had a deep connection since freshman year, was the sa.
Although they are not combat resources, they are talents who can produce the best results in non-combat areas.
There was no reason not to accept them as clan mbers.
“Squad leader. Or should I call you master now?”
And one of the top recruitnt targets among the second years.
The rising star of the tanking warrior class, Camilla Flores.
Surprisingly, her recruitnt process wasn’t difficult.
“The California Academy gave permission easily.”
After all, Camilla is an exchange student from the California Academy.
The Arican academy doesn’t interfere much with the activities of exchange students in other countries.
Whether it’s circle activities or clan activities.
However, she’ll have to return to the U.S. occasionally before graduating, so we agreed to be flexible on that point.
‘Other classmates have also given definite answers…’
In addition, Lee Tae-jun, who was forrly the top warrior class student, and Seo Jin-ah, who has been gradually standing out as a spear user.
Many classmates worthy of the title ‘golden generation’ hoped to join.
They are among the top talents in the academy, filling all the available spots for second-year students.
‘And the unaffiliated Holders.’
The most important recruitnt status.
The senior pro Holders currently unaffiliated.
Among the 45 people selected…
There were truly outstanding talents.
“How could a teacher not go where her student goes? Besides, I was also your companion during Jae-hyun’s rookie days.”
She ca under the pretext of assisting her student Kim Chae-eun, but her intention to closely watch our romance was obvious.
The pinnacle of the ice attribute magician class, Jeong Seon-young, was the start.
“I should work with soone as capable as our squad leader at least twice. Jae-hyun, I’m definitely in, right?”
A Holder who beca quite close to through the raid.
Lim Hyun, who is called number one among unaffiliated Holders in the ‘warrior class’.
He too confird his joining rather easily.
“An opportunity to repay the kindness I received from Mr. Jae-hyun has co. If you’ll have , I’d like to join as well.”
In addition, soone I ford a connection with in Japan and who even followed to the raid team…
Akiba, who possesses the power of both the archer class and shrine maiden.
“If you’ll just accept , I’ll dedicate myself wholly to the activities! I’ll follow you wherever you go, big brother…!!”
…It feels a bit off to include this one in the ‘outstanding high-level holder’s line.
Anyway, even Do Seung-min, whose loyalty is unmatched.
Most of the unaffiliated Holders I had connections with confird their joining as long as there were no special issues.
Much better joining conditions and treatnt compared to other clans.
Clear role distribution and quite systematic operation plans.
Also, becoming a founding mber of a promising new clan.
Various reasons like these determined their decision to join.
And…
[Master Yoo Eun-seol] I just arrived back in the country. I’ll co to the academy, so let’s talk in person.
The last puzzle piece that I didn’t have high hopes for…
Was waiting.
