“Oh Shun, you were just in time.”
After we sold the herb, the Guild Master called out to me from the reception window.
Did something happen?
“What are you thinking? It’s a small matter, it’ll be quick.”
“Understood. Sue and Shiro, please wait a minute.”
「「Okay」」
I called out to the two of them, who were chatting with the others staying in the inn, and then I entered a private room with the Guild Master.
“First of all, how was Sue? Was there any problem when you were outside?”
“None. She was fine talking to Shiro and the others who were staying at the inn. I could see a little smile on her face too.”
“I see, that’s good. I was a little worried because there were signs that she had been beaten up.”
“I was keeping a close eye on her too. It didn’t feel like she was overdoing it.”
I think her laughing with Shiro was genuine, and she didn’t avoid anyone like she has some trauma or something.
Hearing my words, the Guild Master gave me a relieved smile.
“Well, that’s good to hear. Given the content of this incident, I’ll have to talk to you about her from time to time in the future.”
“Yes, I’ll try to keep an eye on her as much as possible.”
“Mmm, I’m counting on you.”
The guild master nodded at my words.
Come to think of it, what about those two?
“Guild Master, what happened to those two in the end?”
“The soldiers of the Margraviate’s territory took them away for questioning. And the guild’s most likely punishment for them is that their license will be suspended for a month.”
“Come to think of it, even if they made that much ruckus, it will only be treated as a first offense, right?”
“Yes, for now. But that being said, people like them will never show remorse so they will always make the same mistake again. I expect that they’ll be stripped of their license soon.”
The Guild Master was sure that the two of them would make some kind of mistake again.
Well, I also think that those two people are going to do something bad eventually. Sigh. I really don’t want to be involved with those two again.
“They are nobles and I’m very well aware that if something happens, it will be a heavy burden for Shun. So, if anything happens, please talk to me.”
“I understand. Thank you very much.”
I parted ways with the Guild Master and returned to the guild shop. Sue and Shiro with Ao on her head were waiting there.
“Shun-oniichan, what did you talk about with the Guild Master?”
“She asked me how Sue was doing when we are collecting herbs.”
“I’m sorry for bothering you. Now that I’ve been treated and fed, I’m feeling much better.”
Sue had a slightly troubled look on her face, but she seemed to be in better shape than she had been in the morning. I’m sure she enjoyed collecting medicinal herbs.
But I need to give her an early rest today.
