The tense atmosphere in the room dispersed like a fleeting mist when the Guild master bowed his head in front of Silvia. He lowered his gaze, and his demeanor changed in seconds.
"Raise your head, I came here just to accompany my guest, so…".
Silvia's clear voice cut through the tension, dismissing the need for further formality. The guild master lifted his gaze, turning to the boy beside her.
His brows furrowed as he wondered who this boy was standing so casually beside Lady Silvia's presence. As someone who lives in Duke territory, he is aware of Silvia's identity and the position she held.
He also heard a strange rumor about her being unrivaled in swordsmanship. However, the news was soon dismissed, for it had nothing to do with the Adventure Guild, so he never had a chance to meet the person mentioned, and yet she was present in the flesh currently.
