Back at the campsite.

 

Nine-----

 

"Who in the world are they?"

Lost in thought, I started organizing the possibilities.

'In the country, only three great mages and two Sages can be accounted for and only people with this type of magic can teleport and they all belonged to the Royal Magic Court…'

But...

'Her chant sounded different maybe a more intricate spell?'

"Nine come over, the guild master needs to record how many beasts are yours"

"Yeah, I'll be there"-Nine 

"Nine, are you familiar with the new guild members?" Zatras

"No, I met Hiyori-san by chance in the central square today"-Nine

"Are you talking about the mute girl?"

"Ha? No, she's not mute. She speaks in archaic"-Nine

"Archaic? Is she perhaps a foreigner? There has been noise about the King in the neighboring country ordering the summoning of the Hero and The Maiden, maybe she's been called up to assist them"

"Yes, that is a possibility" 

I didn't reveal the fact that she could use teleportation, that would only cause a commotion, the thought of an adventurer who could sum up a spell-like that would certainly trigger the greedy hands of the nobles

'If she's the royalty of another country… that would explain a lot'

Zatras made the calculations of my payment for the two Berserk Giant wolf materials and the assistance given for the subjugation. Thanks to Hiyori I made good money this time around. 

Hiyori… It would be nice to talk to her again.

Present Day

 

The feeling of the cotton sheets on the bed felt nice, is stretched to my limit and snuggled in the warm blankets, it seemed that my illusion faded when I fell asleep

 'I need to find a way to maintain it even in my sleep, it would be a nuisance if the hyumans saw my appearance'. 

Finally leaving my laziness behind I sat up and saw Nami's bed empty

"Did she go for something to eat?"

I hear a loud crash coming from the hallway, Nami and Takashi's voices seemed heated up. 

'Ugh I wanted to stay in bed a little longer'

[Glimmires]

Once my illusion was on, I stepped out.

"You lowly Nyako, I said to call out…"- Adventurer 

"Nami? What's going on?"-Hiyori

"Hiyori-sama!?, I'm sorry did these pests wake you"

I patted Nami's head to calm her, the fur on her tail was all tensed

"Nami, what is it that they want?"

"They said the guild master had asked for us, but once I told them that you had not awaked, they demanded we stir you from your sleep"

"Oh? Is that so?"

 

                                                        Ping

                                       Do you wish to activate? 

                                              [INTIMIDATION]

                                                  Yes      No

'Yes, 10 percent'

The room became silent as the hyumans fell to their knees panting and gasping for air. They looked at me with fear.

I glanced at Nami and Takashi, only to find that their complexion had turned pale.

"Urk… we apologize. Zatras-sama has summoned you"

"@$#%^&Y@&%*(Y(*()*()*" (Is that the way you send out an invitation?)

Nami translated what I had said, they faced the reality of the situation. They did not have the power to push us around, not that Nami or Takashi was incapable of killing them rather they didn't because it would become an inconvenience.

 [Deactivate]

Once Nami and I had dressed up, we directed ourselves to the guildhall if this so-called guild master had ordered for us to be brought in such a manner, it had no meaning to belong to that place.

When we reached the Guild Hall, a few number of stares were directed at us some harmless others with cautiousness.

Zatras and ... Nine were in the office.

I directed my gaze at Nine "The invitation that was sent this morning was rather untasteful, does he let his employees and members act like idiots?"

"What did they do?"

Nami, Takashi and I entailed what had taken place in the inn, he related the occurring situation to Zatras.

"I deeply apologize, I'll see that they get the appropriate penalty" 

"Leaving that aside, Zatras called you all here to perform the rank up exam"- Nine 

"And you are here because?"-Hiyori

"Well you see I am a rank A adventurer"-Nine

I gave him an incredulous look, he responded with a wronged gaze.

"Well, shall we head to the training grounds?"-Zatras
