CH 184

When Tauro and Aeris arrived at the Adventurers’ Guild, they found a group of adventurers just leaving the guild.

Looking closely, one could see that it was Nasirus, the leader of the “Jet-Black Sword” who has a strong sense of rivalry towards Tauro and his “Black Gold Wings,” Iratsuk, also a knight, and Vichina, a red-head girl who is a tracker, which is a higher skill in the thief profession.

Rumeya and Shin’s girlfriends, Ren and Yu, followed them out.

“It’s a difficult combination again.”

Tauro was, a little taken aback by Aeris outburst.

Apparently, they’re going to do a quest together with “Jet-Black Sword.”

It seems like they are hitting it off, and that’s what I’m afraid of.

“Let’s not get involved.”

Aeris seemed to think the same thing as Tauro.

“──Well, If it isn’t the leader of the ‘Black Gold Wings’! While you’ve been away from this village of Dansas for a few months, we, the “Jet-Black Sword” have been promoted to E-rank. It won’t be long before we overtake you.”

The leader, Nasirus, brushed his golden bangs and immediately noticed Tauro and Aeris and got involved with them.

This squabble has been around ever since the “Jet-Black Sword” arrived in this village, so Tauro has learned to let it pass.

“Good for you.”

He then went with Aeris into the guild.

“Wait a minute! I heard you kicked out these two girls who were in the black gold wing’s base while you were gone. This vanguard is not happy about it!”

Iratsuk bites back vigorously, probably waiting for an opportunity to say something.

“Yes! That’s right! They are so mean! They kicked out two women, the girlfriends of their colleagues, from the house they were living in for their own reasons!”

Vichina, who had been the red head, followed up.

Ren and Yu are acting like victims and crying.

I see, that’s what they are supposed to do in their plot.

Tauro was in no mood to deny it since the storyline was subtly correct, but he decided to argue with it since the other adventurers in the guild who were listening in might misunderstand what he was saying.

“In the first place, those two girls were only renting the base while we were gone. We returned and I got them to move, that’s all. I’m not going to try to inquire why the story got into your ears, but I’m not impressed with you taking one side’s opinion and meddling in other people’s affairs.”

“That’s right! And when the duo there used the “Black and Gold Wings” base without the leader Tauro’s permission, it’s pretty clear which one of us is right! Well, Shin and Rumeya are partly to blame for leaving them alone.”

With Tauro’s righteous argument and Aeris’s follow-up, the “Jet Black Sword” was left with nothing to say.

Ren and Yu, too, felt that this was a flagrant violation of their rights, but they remained silent and didn’t argue.

“I wonder if this problem has been solved. I think we just had a misunderstanding, so we’re not going to blame you anymore.”

Nasirus, who always interprets things in the most convenient way, seemed to be unable to say anything when he was told this, and he silently looked at the duo who would be going on the quest with him.

Ren and Yu looked away from him.

“Do your best in the quest.”

Tauro said to the “Jet-Black Sword” and walked into the guild.

Once inside the guild, the adventurers suddenly began to buzz around.

It seemed that they had been listening in.

“I apologize for the trouble, ladies and gentlemen. Starting today, I look forward to working with you all again. Thank you for supporting the ” Black Gold Wings.”

Tauro bowed his head, and Aeris also bowed in a hurry.

“Oh, Welcome back! I thought you had left the team!”

“That’s true!”

“It was a disaster as soon as you got back! Ha-ha-ha!”

“I was told they had fled to another country, is that wrong?”

“You idiot, that’s a drunken joke!”

“I heard they ran away in the night.”

“That’s just a lie from the “Lying Saw” guy!”

It seems that while he was away, the adventurers had made him the centre of their jokes.

I was in a hurry at the time and had no way of predicting that this would happen, but I was a little dismayed that Shin and Rumeya had left things till they got out of hand.

Come to think of it, I wonder what happened to the letters I used to send them from time to time. Tauro wondered if they had read them.
