{Retainer Party System}

A maximum of five members could be bound together around a retainer, forming a single party.

The party would share experience points and settlement funds, and all members would benefit from the title-based experience and settlement fund amplification effects granted by the retainer.

Simply put, it was a type of party system.

‘Sharing experience points and settlement fund amplification effects, huh?’

In other words, even regular civilians, just by being part of a retainer party, would gain up to 900% of the experience points and settlement funds.

‘That’s insane.’

It just so happened that the personnel onboard each K-9 self-propelled howitzer were exactly divided into groups of five.

From a conventional standpoint, the logical choice would be to distribute them among the artillery units and merge them into a single entity—

‘But that would be meaningless.’

Why had I chosen to accept non-awakened artillerymen as retainers in the first place?

‘To maximize the experience and settlement funds being generated at this very moment.’

It would have been impractical to pull back the awakened retainers fighting near the ceasefire line just to reassign them to the howitzers. Besides, I had already assessed the resolve of the soldiers during the formation review.

Even so, accepting non-awakened individuals as full-fledged retainers was still inefficient.@@novelbin@@

So, how could I minimize losses while maximizing the benefits?

‘Just recruit all those responsible for pressing the fire buttons into the retainer party.’

There was no need to officially register them as retainers—simply including them in a retainer party would suffice.

Apparently, retainers could form their own parties, but since I had the authority, I could forcibly bind them together.

‘Bind.’

The moment I accepted all artillerymen in charge of pressing the fire buttons into the retainer party, the profit margin skyrocketed.

‘About 700 billion per minute.’
