Catalana crouched down and spoke to the branch manager, who was still crawling on the floor. The branch manager was holding his nose with his hand, tears streaming down his face.

“You should go to another job guild for retraining. I recommend the city of Topaz from around here. They have good leadership there.”

“Ha, Hahi…”

The branch manager of the Swordsman’s Guild tried to believe in people like Rogai until the very end. But eventually, he made the ruthless decision to banish him. It was, of course, for the good of the guild as a whole and for the good of others.

The branch manager of the Heavy Warrior Guild also took the initiative to give up his rest for his junior when they were fighting at the Scarb’s Nest. This was also a decision made for others and, above all, out of concern for the younger members of the guild.

The instructors were also very attentive to each individual. They carefully observed their subordinates. Litty was also convinced that depending on the way instructors handled young adventurers would show how those adventurers interacted with the public.

“By the way. I have a suggestion.”

“What’s that?”

“Let me use your facilities. I’ll teach Kuufa-chan and Litty-chan how to call the right summons properly.”

“Ha… what are you talking about?”

“I’m going to show you how bad you are. This is the only nice thing I can do for you.”

The branch manager had no choice in the matter. He nodded his head repeatedly and agreed.

It was a good thing for Litty as well. She was not without sympathy for the branch manager, but she prioritized her own self-improvement.

“Also, when I’m down helping the two, I’ll have them face off against the Summoners here. Of course, I’ll leave the selection to you.”

“Are you serious?”

“I don’t think it’s a bad idea, even for you. I mean, you must be frustrated, right?”

“Okay, okay… fine.”

“So, that’s how it will go, you two.”

Kuufa was no longer keeping up with the conversation.

She stood there in a semi-unconscious state, Catalana was holding her hand out in front of Kuufa, but she didn’t respond.

“I guess it was a little too much to take in.” (Catalana)

“I don’t think Kuufa would want that match, let alone me?” (Litty)

“I don’t care about what she wants to do after the match, but she’s going to end up dying one of these days if she doesn’t keep up with what’s happening around her. Of course, if she decided not to continue being an adventurer then I wouldn’t force her. By the way, from her state right now, I don’t think she’d be able to respond.” (Catalana)

“Kuufa-san, Kuufa-san.” (Litty)

Litty shook her, but Kuufa only swayed. Having no choice, Litty carried her on her back and led her out of the room.

After the group left, the branch manager clung to the desk and glared hatefully at the door.

“Damn… she’s just doing as she pleases. How can she possibly understand what a Summoner is? Hmph!”

After kicking a chair in frustration, the branch manager had a flash of inspiration. He laughed and produced a blazing flame from one of his hands.

“You mentioned that I was free to choose, right? That means it includes me as well. You idiot…. You don’t even know what my summons is…”

The flames circled around the branch manager. The skillful movement seemed to be linked to the mind of the branch manager. He saw an opportunity to win.

“This is a good opportunity. I’m going to crush that crazy woman thoroughly.”

The branch manager’s smile, illuminated by the flames, was like that of a demon, filled with heavy evil intent.
