============================================================
After a few days after the successful negotiations with D.D.D guild. All is well in the West Wind Brigade guild, but inside Akihabara, the rumor of those "Super Miracle Eggs Of Fantasy." were ever so popular, the hungry stomachs of the Adventurers/ Players could not take it anymore. Few days later the guild was visited by the guild Masters of Rodrick Firm, Oceanic Systems, and 8th Shopping district came directly to the Guild of Nishikaze no Ryodan (West Wind Brigade.) and one Souji is in a panic.
"Harry!, save me, mean people from the major productions guilds are here!, they are here for business proposal for your "Super Miracle Eggs Of Fantasy." , help me here Harry, they are making scary faces, I think they've been starved, they look like they have Rabbies, Save me Harry!." Souji said as he hugged Harry.
"All right, all right, I'll go see what I can do." Harry said as he went into the meeting room where the VIP's are waiting.
"Good afternoon gentlemen, I am Harry, a simple member of West Wind Brigade guild member that has been forcefully put in the spotlight instead of our fearless leader, what can I do for you.?" Harry introduced himself.
"We will be blunt, the three of us here are gathered to buy of you on how to make the so called Super Miracle Eggs Of Fantasy, we'll pay any price." Mitchitaka said, and the other two guild Master's agreed.
"I am sorry, the Super Miracle Eggs Of Fantasy is not made by hand, nor is achieved by cooking, nor quest, I'm sure you all are confused, allow this lowly guild member to shed some light on the mystery, Summon Blissey!." Harry said as a Blissey appeared in the room. All the occupants were surprised except for Harry.
"Blissey, can you give our guest one softboiled eggs each please." Harry requested, and the Blissey followed orders and Harry de-summoned her after thanking her.
The three guild master quickly ate their "Super Miracle Eggs Of Fantasy." and was transported to their Happy place. After ten minutes, they became full.
"So this is the mystery behind the Super Miracle Eggs Of Fantasy?." Charasin said as he finally understood why it could not be sold.
Who would have thought, that a Summon would be the source of the legendary food.
"In that case, we will buy the information on how to get that summon, how about it?, we will pay 4 million gold, no 8 million gold for it, if we pool our resources, we will meet your demands." Mitchitaka said his offer along with the other members.
"Why I'm flattered by the offer, these summon aren't available anymore, confused?, allow me to elaborate. These summon was part of the pokemon promotions all those years ago, sadly it got cancelled 3 days after its start because it wasn't popular enough to the summoner masses, and they were expensive. The summoners preferred the Combat Princess series summon, so all chances to get this is out. And if you do find some summoner who bought a pokemon summon, the chances of them of having a Chansey or a Blissey are 100000 to 1, why? because they were 600+ to choose from if you bought them individually, or got them at the lottery, plus, Blissey is a support summon, most summoners prefer the offensive types." Harry explained.
The proud guild masters of the production class were at a loss at what to do, all chances of getting food are slim to none.
"However, seeing as we are in a sutuation where we have have to stick together in these times of need, I have a proposal." Harry said as it shed a hope in the guild masters from the three Major guilds.
"What is your proposal Harry-san.?" Rodrick said in anticipation.
"I will be able to produce 1000 jumbo eggs every two days, I will only be charging 100k golds per dilevery, this will hold true that is untill we can produce food again." Harry made his proposition.
The deal was practically a steal, it was very cheap and affordable, it was probably twenty, no, thirty times the original price if it was a normal deal then it would certainly cause a fortune, the taste was Phantasmal Class rated if it were a quest from an npc, heck it even tastes better than a five star class restaurant.
"However, I will need a workspace and workforce, I hope you can provide me with both?, this are dark times gentlemen, it is at this moment when dark desires of people show, I am showing goodwill towards my fellow man and women." Harry said with a gentle smile that made him look like a saint.
"Deal, our three guilds will provide the space, and the workforce, for you're proposal, but may I ask how you will produce one thousand eggs per two days?." asked Mitchitaka.
"Gentlemen, have you noticed something strange about my summon?." Harry asked.
"Yes, now that I think about it, it was shiny." answered Charasin.
"Ping pong, that's right, there are two types of pokemom, one regular and one shiny, the shiny are more stronger and it stands to say that they will be able to produce more eggs." Harry explained.
"But even so, with only one summon, are you sure, you will be able to deliver your end of the deal?." asked Rodrick.
"Heaven's no, if I have only one, I would kill my only summon, that is if I have only one." Harry smiled evilly.
"Masaka!, Imposible!, you said it yourself that it was extremely rare, what are the chances of you having more of the same pokemon especially when summoners are limited to their allowed contracts." Charasin said.
"Gentlemen, allow me to remove your doubts, Summon Blissey Army!." Harry said as eight summoning circles appeared and popped eight shiny Blissey's.
"Impossible!, but it's true, with this much workforce, you can definitely meet you're quota, and have spare room for rest, you have cleared my doubts Harry-san, wait a minute, I almost didn't recognize you for a minute, YOU!, you were a former member of the debauchery party, I only saw you a few times but I'm positive you are a member of that legendary group." Mitchitaka explained.
"Ohh?, I didn't know that we were that legendary, I only participated a few raids, and quited after they disbanded but tried Elder tale again with this new expansion pack." Harry explained.
"That explains it, Hoho, how reliable, well be expecting great things from you Harry-san." Charasin explained.
"We'll gentlemen, when will I start?, I can start right now if you have the artisans needed for the containers for the food, I'll make five hundred eggs per day if that is alright with you folks." Harry explained.
"We'll get started right away, the 8th shopping district has the artisans you need, and we have great workplace for food production." Charasin said.
"All right gentlemen, just let me say the result of meeting to my guild Master. Come pick me up by an hour, I'll be ready by then." explained Harry.
"Its been a pleasure Harry." Mitchitaka said.
Harry explained everything to Souji, and assured him that he still have time to have food for the guild, and to have someone come to the 8th shopping district guild for pick-up of daily food.
A week passed by, and Harry was somehow able to pacify some of the masses. The food he made wasn't enough to feed 30000 Japanese players but it was enough to shed hope to the masses. It was this time that Shiroe showed up with a bold plan. He talked to us about his plans, and West Wind Brigade agreed to help. Harry donated 500k gold to Shiroe for his plans to succeed, It certainly speed up the process.
Shiroe was able to get a meeting with the major guilds, and the small guilds for his Round Table conference or Round Table Alliance.
============================================================
The Round Table Alliance was organized by Log Horizon's Guild Master Shiroe who wanted to change Akihabara for the better. Eleven other guilds were invited to be a part of the Alliance but Silver Sword's William rejected the offer, decreasing the number by one.
The Alliance is designed to be the governing body of Akihabara. Its ultimate role is to improve the city's vitality and security for the better of its citizens. Though originally met with mixed reviews, the Alliance proved to be a success and slowly rebuilt the city and its citizens.
One of the contributing factors for its success is Shiroe's purchasing of the 'Guild Building' zone. With this, he can blacklist anyone who breaks the law, thereby disabling them from using their guild hall, bank or warehouse. This will make living in the city difficult and may force the rule breaker(s) to leave.
============================================================
Purpose:
The main purpose of the alliance is to improve the city's vitality and security. This was achieved through governance, regulation, criminalization, taxation, collaboration, information management, innovation, and economy. In the first meeting, the alliance reached the consensus that:
-They are to disclose publicly that out-of-the-game innovations can be created by those with suitable subclasses and levels without using the in-game menu. This boosts innovations which subsequently increases consumption and business and decreases depression. The increased consumption also leads to rising in demand and jobs across production and battle guilds.
-They are to collect resources through taxation and job requests which will be used to investigate the Fairy Rings that can be used for exploring zones and mapping routes. When exploration has been completed, they will disseminate information through newspaper and other media channels.
-Each guild should comprise with each other for grinding spots.
-They ban PKing in low-level zones around Akihabara.
-Each guild must respect human rights of players. There must not be any confinement, kidnapping, murder, and rape. Joining and leaving guilds must be a voluntary decision.
-They aim to build good relationships with the People of the Land and respect their human rights.

"With that the Round table alliance is formed, meeting adjourned." Shiroe said as He left.
Most of the member's left but three guild Master's remain, Mitchitaka from Oceanic System, Charasin from the 8th shopping District, Rodrick from Rodrick Firm.
"Gentlemen we have a delima." Mitchitaka announced.
Curious about the three guild master's stayed, Krusty, and Soujiro decided to join in.
"What delima are you guys talking about.?" asked Krusty.
"Ahh, yes, you see, now that the secret to producing edible food is out in the open, my dear gentlemen, the Super Miracle Eggs Of Fantasy, will now be out of our reach." Mitchitaka explained.
"What?, no more Super Miracle Eggs Of Fantasy?, those were delicious, why is it being stopped, I thought it was a pretty good deal, will kind of cheap actually, while it was limited." Said Krusty.
"There was a reason, for that, after the rumor of the Super Miracle Eggs Of Fantasy started, we investigated the source, it was one of the West Wind Brigade members who had it, it wasn't easily found anywhere, it was from a unique summon. We originally tried to send a messenger but we got desperate and went ahead ourselves to make a business proposition. We found out that the creature producing those eggs were so rare that it rivaled Phantasmal class levels." Mitchitaka explained.
"No wonder it was so heavenly, but wait if it was that kind of level, why was it so cheap, and distributed equally, albeit in limited quantity.?" Krusty asked.
"This were his exact words when he proposed an offer to us "I will be able to produce 1000 jumbo eggs every two days, I will only be charging 100k golds per dilevery, this will hold true that is untill we can produce food again." quoted from the mystery provider." Mitchitaka explained.
"My God!, then does that mean that the person, never really made much profit but chose to provide some sort of semblance of Humanity, and shared his good graces?, hoh, then that person played a big role in Akihabara the whole time in keeping it from becoming lawless." Krusty explained as he adjusted his glasses.
"Now here's the thing, with the Round Table Alliance share of information, we will be not having any more of those drugs in the shape of an egg." Mitchitaka explained.
"Hehe, we will still be having those everyday though." Souji boasted.
"Don't just Rub it in, by the way who is this good Samaritan?, how come I have never, heard of him before." asked Krusty.
"Well, it's understandable, he said it himself that he quit playing Elder Tale, and just got back into playing during the new expansion pack." Mitchitaka explained.
"Who?, don't keep me in suspense, who was it.?" Krusty asked.
"He was a former member of that Debauchery Party." Mitchitaka explained.
"There wasn't anyone anyone that noticable in the party who was a summoner, there was only one who seemed to blend into the crowd, wait!, are you implying that it's the same person?." Krusty asked.
"Why yes, we saw it first hand, he really must be strong than his first impression." Mitchitaka admitted.
"We'll I'll be damed, that brat has been holding out on us, how much has he been holding out on us?." Krusty asked.
Mitchitaka, Charisan, Rodrick and Krusty was staring at Soujiro, and he began sweating bullets.
"All right I give, I give, but at least promise me not to spread this information around, Promise me!." Soujiro Commanded.
"We Promise!." They shouted in unision as the gulped in anticipation.
"We'll he said he was the Maboroshi no Syoukanshi, former rank one on the world as the ranked summoner." Soujiro explained.
"Masaka!, but he went missing all years ago, and faded into myth, but wait, he started to go inactive when the Debauchery Party was formed which means, this information is accurate." Krusty shared his insight.
"Yup, and I'm not handing him to any of you." Soujiro said as he left the meeting place leaving them dumbfounded.
"Sigh, I guess we'll just accept this loss, I'm sure the Super Miracle Eggs Of Fantasy will turn up sooner or later, I suggest you guys save more money if he goes into business, those would sell like hotcakes." Mitchitaka advised, and their mini-meeting concluded.
News of the Round Table Alliance spread far, and wide.
Not long after the first alliance conference, League of Freedom Cities Eastal contacted the Round Table Alliance to attend an event at Ancient Palace of Eternal Ice. All alliance members agreed that there would be potential benefits to learn more about unknown elements in Elder Tale since currently there is no accessible quest unlike in the old Elder Tale. As a result, the purposes of the alliance were extended to address political issues of the People of the Land. Alliance members selected as representatives to contact League of Freedom Cities Eastal included Krusty, Michitaka, and Shiroe, accompanied by Takamiya Misa, Akatsuki, and Henrietta.
That is a story for another time.
Harry with new information on how to make food, went overdrive and cooked a feast that lasted a week.
Harry made a proposition for Soujiro that He would produce extra 200 Super Miracle Eggs Of Fantasy and have Soujiro sell them, the other 100 was for guild funds, and the other 100 was for Harry, he stated that it would work and he can manage to supply it everyday, and would be a steady income. They agreed to sell it at 1k gold each and shook hands on the business transaction. It was pretty steep but it was available, and managable to middle level players, and it would help them motivate to level more.
West Wind Brigade made a store that's sells Super Miracle Eggs Of Fantasy, for sale at everyday at 12 pm, it costs 1k each and limited to one per custumer, and first come first, serve basis. There will be only 200 eggs sold per day.
Business was booming, news of the "Super Miracle Eggs Of Fantasy." reached to the nobles of the people of the land as they sent servants to line in. It was a huge success, but many still were thingking about it if that egg was all that hype it was rumored to be, it was quickly resolved when Harry made a huge proposal. Harry decided at the week after, he gave away 1000 softboiled eggs to share with everyone for free. It was a tall order but with the help of the whole guild it was a successful event, it was also done beacause it was also the anniversary of the West Wind Brigade.
The fame of the West Wind Brigade became well known as the number seller of exotic five star cuisine. It also helped gather more information about the people of the land.
It was around this time that the Goblin King Raid Quest reared its ugly head.
"Souji, wanna do the Goblin King Raid Quest?, I'm bored." Harry complained.
"Hmm I'll go ask the battle guilds if they wanna come, D.D.D is out, because they are still at the meeting with the League of Freedom Cities Eastal, and contacted the Round Table Alliance to attend an event at Ancient Palace of Eternal Ice." Sound explained.
"How about the Black Sword Knights?, I heard they are filled with battlemaniacs." Harry sugguested.
"Ok, I'll go see them." Souji said as he contacted their leader "Black Sword" Isaac.
30 minutes later, "Its a go, well leave tomorrow at 8 am." Souji explained.
"Better get ready." Harry said as he felt excited at the quest.

Authors Note: Yay more chapters
Reference:
Michitaka is one of the players trapped in a the MMORPG Elder Tale. His character is a Monk and he is the leader of the biggest production guild in Akibahara named Oceanic Systems, consisting of 2,500 members. He appeared when Crescent Moon Alliance is trying to secure sponsors for their new food business, McCrescent, which is the cover up of their secret operation along withLog Horizon to improve the environment in Akiba. In the real world, he is a section chief salaryman.
Appearance:
He has brown hair and brown eyes. Rather stocky in build, Michitaka is likened to a bear and is easily the largest of the three large Production guild masters.
============================================================
Charasin, also known as Young Boss Charasin, is the guild master of 8th Shopping District Center, one of the top three production guilds in Akihabara. He is a Summoner and a member of the Round Table Alliance.
============================================================
Rodrick, also known as Fairy Pharmacist Rodrick, is the guild master of The Rodrick Firm. He is a Summoner and a member of the Round Table Alliance.
============================================================
Isaac, also known as Black Sword Isaac, is the guild master of Black Sword Knights. He is a Guardian and a member of the Round Table Alliance.
Appearance:
Isaac is described as having "a head full of blood-red hair and a confident, contemptuous smile on his face." He is rather tall, almost equaling Krusty in height.
Personality:
Isaac is a rowdy person who enjoys fighting, taking comments from his guild members like "You're really naggy, Commander," and "Chief is an idiot" in stride and treating them more like compliments. He tends to be easily irritated, but is not unwilling to listen to others. He invited Shiroe to join his guild a few months after Debauchery Tea Party was disbanded but got turned down. After forming the Round Table Alliance, he realized that he only understood the surface of Shiroe's personality.
He's a nicer person than he is known to be, aiming for his guild to surpass level 90 to keep them from thinking about their current situation and being concerned over Akiba's fate. Soujiro says that Isaac is "just a little shy," although whether that was true or simply to annoy Isaac is unknown. Nyanta, after Isaac and some of his Summoners clean up Log Horizon's new guild building with their Undines' water, says that the Black Sword Knights are actually good people.
