"I-Interns?"

"Yes, interns."

Park Jung-gi, who had been helping me with things in the meantime, wore a doubtful expression. I didn't blame him for it. Will an intern be willing to apply for a collapsing guild? That didn't seem possible.

However, it wasn't a bad choice in our current situation. We had the media and masses on our side. We would still have some applicants willing to come in, either way.

When public opinion and the media come together, applicants are expected to come in anyway. This was how we could revive the image of our guild.

'Young Company, Young Guild!'

What we needed was to capture the guild similarly to a venture company on Earth. It should be seen as a free, creative environment everyone can enjoy.

Of course, the reality may be a little different, but the publicity had to be like this to find more talent and noncombatant recruits who were both loyal and okay with relatively low wages.

'That's where the interns come in.'

"First, it would be better to change the interior of the guild a little."

"Yeah?"

"I think the office looks a little dull. This kind of guild isn't what Lindel's young talents would want. It would be better to remove all the desks using magic to change Blue's interior."

"I don't... I don't understand why we need to do that all of a sudden."

"What Blue needs is innovation. In this kind of environment, it would be hard to think of new ideas. This is why we need to change the environment and make it livelier."

"Ah... Yes. Okay."

Nothing sounded better than the word innovation. This was another one of my sleazy reasoning.

"It would be nice to tear down the offices used by Lee Seolho and the other old people. The area would look better if it was open and have sofas where the staff can rest. Oh, a sleeping capsule sounds like a good idea! We should use an existing one rather than create a new one entirely to minimize the budget. The important thing is the atmosphere. It is important to make Blue look like the kind of guild that promotes freedom and activity to stimulate the young ones."

"Ah... Yeah..."

"It doesn't matter if you install a pool table or a card game in the common room where employees can use during breaks, just make sure to put something. Oh, it wouldn't be bad to have a board game like chess. The price won't be too costly, anyway. Also, let's change the guild restaurant to a buffet establishment."

"Ah, but the restaurant's budget..."

A well-fed slave worked harder, after all.

I didn't know about the rest, but I was sure this particular area needed an improvement for the sake of all the guild members and workers.

'The executive dining room is too big in itself...'

"If you sort out the useless luxuries of the old men that were in place before, we can pave out a plan."

"It still won't be enough. How much would you want?"

I knew I had to worry about that for a bit. However, the answer in itself was simple.

"There will be no such thing as a maintenance fee in Blue from now on. Please make sure to subtract the cost for the welfare of party members and executives. You just have to put it in some of the remaining budgets."

It would be better to run slaves with money.

The annual salary that the executives and party members received was enough in terms of dignity. To use and receive benefits on top of that sounded ridiculous. I bet that, if it weren't for the guild's old forces, Blue would have been a much larger guild than it was now.
