Since we are all here anyway, we decided to go to the guild together. But since it is just the building next door, we got there soon.
“Huh? It’s kind of noisy, isn’t it?”
“You’re right. Someone is yelling at the reception desk.”
“If you look closely, you’ll see that they’re wearing vestments.”
“This definitely doesn’t look like something good is going to happen.”
When we entered the guild, there was quite a commotion inside.
A trio wearing vestment clothing are threatening the receptionist at the window counter. The surrounding adventurers also looked as if they might jump out at any moment at the sight of the three of them.
“Excuse me. Uhm, I applied yesterday to be a medical staff at the cherry blossom viewing venue.”
“Oh, Shun-san. I’m glad you’re already here. Chief, Shun-san came.”
We checked-in at the reception window with a dog-eared sister as the receptionist while keeping an eye on the situation at the other window counter, but the attention turned to us.
It appears that the elven receptionist who assisted me yesterday is the chief receptionist, and she came over with an expression of relief.
“I’m sorry, Shun-san. Pardon us for suddenly getting you involved in such a complicated situation.”
“Uhm, what exactly happened?”
“The truth is, the church doesn’t believe that we’ve already assigned a medical staff, and they’re still pushing us to do things their way.”
Suddenly, the man wearing a vestment yelled something I couldn’t quite understand.
Hmm, he seemed like a bad guy as both Shiro and Ao were on guard against him.
Then, this time, he came over here and snapped at me.
“Hmph! You can just leave it to the church.”
““That’s right. That’s right.””
Huh? What’s with them?
Even though they are a clergyman, they looked really stupid right now. The person who came from the inn with me also looked quite dumbfounded.
I decided not to let my emotions get the better of me and talked to them calmly.
“Receptionist-san, this is a contract between the management of the cherry blossom viewing venue and the guild, isn’t it? Since we have accepted the request, it would be a breach of contract if someone else forced their way in, right? If I remember correctly, there would be a pretty severe punishment for that.”
“Yes, stealing other people’s profits is one of the things you shouldn’t do as an adventurer. It could result in your license being revoked in an instant.”
“Understood. Well, I signed the contract yesterday, so even if they come here today and make a fuss like this, I have the right of priority, am I correct?”
“Yes, Shun-san’s contract takes precedence. The guild’s contract are treated the same as the law.”
“You three heard it, right?”
“““Ku-”””
I don’t know if the three of them are registered as adventurers, but I proceeded by explaining the clauses of the contract so that even an amateur can understand.
The chief receptionist noticed what I was trying to say so she went along with me. The adventurers around me also noticed what I was trying to do, and they interjected in a tone that is in full agreement with me.
“Besides, it is only the client who decides the commission fee in the first place, so there is no point in you guys telling the guild to raise the price.”
“Yes, that’s right. We have a strict contract with the management of the cherry blossom viewing venue that requested this request.”
“““Damn it!”””
The three of them cursed, but they can’t argue as this was the basic principle of the contract.
These clergymen seem to be really lacking in brains.
I glanced at the members of the inn behind me and they immediately understood.
“Also, to prepare for the unexpected, I would like to add two more people who can use healing magic. Is that okay?”
“Yes, there is no problem with that. I have heard that it won’t be a problem if we have more people.”
I also emphasized that they were prepared for any unforeseen circumstances.
With this, the action of the church was completely useless.
“Damn it, I’ll remember you! You’ll regret this!”
““Just you wait!””
With some parting words unbecoming of clergymen, the trio fled the guild.
In cases like this, if you could make the other party understand that there was nothing they could do, they would back down by themselves. Besides, if they go on a rampage in this situation, they will be the ones who will be at the disadvantage.
“Listening carefully, it seems like they’re just forcing impossible demands upon us.”
“That’s right. What more, they always come here when the guild master isn’t around.”
“Only when he is not here huh. ….Then, when the guild master is not around, do you inform the entire guild?”
“No. We only inform the staff members and the Lord.”
“Hmm…. I’ll meet the guild master when I’m done with the request, I’ll ask him then.”
The chief receptionist also seemed to notice my doubts.
Why do people in the church know when the guild master is not here?
I am also very curious about this.
But first, we have to make a contract for everyone.
“I’m sorry, the number of contracts has suddenly increased.”
“No, no problem at all. They said that it does not matter if there are many people, and it is very good that more people can use healing magic.”
So, we decided to make a contract with ten people, including the three of us.
It was a request above E rank, but because the content was unique the fee was set a little high, so it was a request that everyone was happy with.
“Even though we’re called the medical team, we do a lot of heavy lifting, so there’s probably a lot of work for other people.”
“That’s where we come in.”
“It’s also a good training for body enhancement magic.”
So, with everyone in agreement, we immediately headed to the cherry blossom viewing venue.
I couldn’t help but hope that this request would be completed successfully.
