The Section Chief leaned back in his chair, brows drawn together as he rested a hand over his mouth, deep in thought.
He had been uncertain for some time about revealing what he had found out to the Guild Master, but after a little bit of thought, he realized that he had no other choice but to.
'He's very likely already figured something out. If I act as though I'm unaware, he might choose not to mention it, but the fact that he won't say anything… that's the real problem.'
The Guild Master wasn't someone who would directly confront someone about anything.
If he wasn't satisfied with someone's performance, he wouldn't express it outright. Instead, he would quietly take note of it, his silence far more telling than words. The more someone disappointed him, the quicker his interest in them faded.
He was the kind of person who assigned value to people, measuring their worth based on what they could offer rather than who they were.
