Ethan didn't hesitate to buy the Fortress of a Hundred Thousand Roses.
It was a suitable place for Seo-ah's guild, and the price wasn't exactly outrageous.
He wasn't thrilled with the bonuses offered to whichever guild used the fortress as its base, but, on second thought, he couldn't complain.
Unlike what went on among the Golden Lords, there was a genuine effort to maintain at least an illusion of balance among regular players.
Even so, the benefits Seo-ah's guild was about to receive would probably be enough to attract attention. Most guilds couldn't get much more than a 10–20% XP bonus, for example.
