"Guild?" asked Big Sis.

"But we are robots… we don't count as people…" said Sugar.

"Yeah, I guess we would become their servants…" said Sakura.

"Well, we have not officially established our family as a guild yet, but we will soon do so, perhaps in a few weeks… if things go according to our plans. For now, we have established a hideout, where you can live quite… comfortably, compared to this place. Arthur here has a lot of resources, I am sure that we can get you into a good and functioning condition, your strength shall be useful for my goals," said Noah rather coldly, he wasn't that good at inspiring people, nor acting gently.

However, he had already beaten Big Sis, and if he wanted, he could completely shatter all the robots in here…

So it was better to obey him.

And it was not as if they did not grow some admiration to him.

First of all, he saved Sakura, although unwillingly at that time.

Second, he beat Big Sis, yet he did not kill her and even forgave her life.

Afterward, he offered everyone a better future.

There were dozens of damaged Robots of all types in this place, all of them lived below Big Sis, and would obey her decisions if it meant that they could live better lives.

"Big Sis, maybe… we could trust them?" asked Sakura.

"Hmmm… Well, I don't want to get her beaten again, so she better agrees," said Sugar.

"Sigh… I am impressed that even after defeating me, you have not tried to take me apart to sell my pieces… Perhaps your intentions are indeed good for us… But why?" asked Big Sis.

"Why? A Guild cannot be just one person, I need a lot of strength, and strength is achieved in the group. Although I might be strong myself, I still need to assistance of loyal subordinates. Robots like you with nothing to lose are perfect. Fear not, I treat my subjects fairly, as long as they make themselves useful," said Noah, his presence suddenly became greater for these artificial beings.

"How can you… put so much trust in us? We are robots… not people…" said Big Sis.

"Do you really think I trust you? You are completely wrong, but I trust in my strength, and that you will not try to defy me… If you do not want to die," said Noah.

"Hmph… Well, I was already beaten, you could take my life at any moment, there is no other option… And if you prove to have actually said the truth of what you promised, I will swear my loyalty to you," said Big Sis.

"B-Big Sis…" said Sugar.

"Well, it's all done now! Let's move to that comfy mansion!" said Sakura.

"It will be rather hard to move such a large group of robots through the streets…" said Arthur.

"Aren't robots organic lives? They are similar to items rather than living beings, right?" asked Noah.

"Hm? Yeah, why?" asked Arthur.

"Then shouldn't it be possible to save them inside the Dimensional Storage Ring?" asked Noah.

"I… That's… true… But would they… like to be treated as an item?" asked Arthur.

"I don't think they have an option to refuse," said Noah.

"Well, this will be a bit weird…" said Sugar.

After having decided to save the robots inside the Dimensional Storage Ring, Arthur opened the artifact as a small portal that led to the inside of such a place emerged.

Dimensional Storage Rings were special items, often found inside Dungeons of high Ranking inside of Treasure Chests, dropped by monsters, and so on.

However, through reverse engineering and the advancement of Magic Technology, Axis Corporations managed to finally find a way to mass-produce these useful items, making them more common and cheaper to the public.

However, such items were incapable of harboring living beings inside, but any type of item, food, or anything else, was possible to be stored inside.

Robots were not alive, so such a thing was possible for them.

Although they would feel rather uncomfortable doing so, it was not as if Noah were giving them any choice.

Robots from all shapes and sizes entered the Dimensional Storage Ring, some seemed amazed, while others were a bit frightened, however, after a few minutes, Big Sis was the last to enter, having emptied all of this building.

The Dimensional Storage Ring had multiple slots where things could be saved, and each slot could save several items together, so it was possible to save every robot without many issues, and with a lot of slots to spare.

"I never thought that it was possible to store robots inside the Dimensional Storage Ring… This is a bit surprising…" said Arthur.

"I bet that many big shots do so, or how would they carry around such a big machine as that War Machine?" asked Noah.

"I-I guess it does makes sense now," said Arthur.

"Noah-sama, what shall we do now?" asked Iris.

Noah glanced at the starry sky, and the shining moon, the night was still young.

"Let's go to the Dungeon we decided to go, after that, Arthur will bring the Robots to our Manor, and we'll go back to school before it begins," said Noah.

"Which Dungeon are we going towards?" asked Timassa.

"The Scale Dungeon, the one filled with lizards, it should be an F-Rank Dungeon," said Noah, as the rest of the party nodded, quickly rushing through the streets, jumping over buildings, and crossing through the shadows.

That night many of the people that lived in these districts reported the sighting of strange crimson-eyed masked people roaming the streets and rooftops.

After half an hour, the party finally reached the area where this Dungeon Rift was located, right in the middle of a special park that was surrounded by large walls, it had a few guards in the entrance, but it was rather easy to let them get inside as long as they showed their identifications of Military School Students.

"Going to a Dungeon at this hour, younglings?" asked the guard, rather concerned.

"In a world filled with monsters, we cannot slack for a second, sir," said Arthur.action

"Hm, diligent kids, I like that, then go in, make sure to have brought some provisions," said the guard, as he let the students in without much concern, this was all because this Rift conducted to an F-Rank Dungeon, the monsters were the weakest, and such a big group as they were more than capable of disposing of these monsters even if they came in armies.

Noah and his party entered the Dungeon through the Rift, as they found themselves in vast jungles with large trees towering to the skies.

The sky was blue, and the sun was shining brightly, dungeons did not care at all what time it was on Earth, as they seemed to be worlds of their own.

The chirping of birds could be heard all around, and even that of small monkeys.

However, those were simply animals that appeared in this dungeon, as the real threats were the large, scaled humanoid lizards that roamed around.

As soon as the party entered, they were greeted by a large scouting group of Lizardman, humanoid lizards with armor-like green scales and alligator heads, they wore tribal clothes and wielded lances, shields made off their scales, and axes.

"UKAKA!" roared the leader, immediately commanding its comrades to charge after Noah and his party!

"Oh? It seems that we got a nice welcome party here!" said Noah.
