Chapter 181: The Second Encounter With An S-rank
Chapter 181: The Second Encounter With An S-rank
The next day.
Having arrived at the guild Classion, the sight of the building in front of us took our breaths away.
" I see, so this is a high-ranking guild, huh."
Before us stood a large building that could be mistaken for the office of a large company. Classion is a large-scale guild and a place where many talented adventurers belong to. That is likely why they have that much money.
"Well then, shall we go?"
Only Claire, who seems to have come here many times, could go inside without hesitation. And the rest of us followed her after looking at each other.
After talking to the receptionist, we were escorted to the room where the Guild Master is waiting. When we entered the room, the sight of a monotonous room surrounded by white-colored walls entered my eyes. From the size of the room to the design of the interior, this room is probably a training room or something.
However, if there is one problem about this room, then it must be
"It seems there is no one inside."
"Un. Maybe she has not arrived yet?"
Hana and Yui gave their straightforward impressions towards the place. And I actually had the same question as them. Because the receptionist clearly said the Guild Master has been waiting for us. Naturally, there is a possibility that she hasn't arrived yet, just as Yui says. Or rather, that's more likely to be the reason. However, the room felt somewhat strange.
Something is hiding?
The moment I thought so,
"-!"
Feeling that something was approaching us rapidly, I hastily stood in front of Hana and the others to protect them. At that moment, the figure of Claire, who didn't take any action, reflected in the corner of my field of vision.
I see, so it was like that.
Then, in front of me, who had comprehended the situation, it appeared all of a sudden, showing its red color. It was a red-colored spear, which approached us at a vigorous momentum as soon as it appeared.
"hiss"
Get down!"
At that moment, I found that Rei and Akari respectively summoned their sword and shield at an astonishing reaction speed. The two then tried to intercept the spear, but they couldn't make it in time and
"Onii-chan?!"
"Rin-senpai!"
As if responding to Hana and Yui's voices, who noticed the situation late, the spear stopped moving right before it reached my throat. And within a second, it disappeared without a trace.
"It disappeared?"
"What was that just now?"
While the four except me and Claire couldn't understand the situation, the sound of applause was heard out of nowhere, causing us to reflexively direct our gaze at the direction where the sound came from. In the center of the room where no one was supposed to be there before, a woman appeared. From her elated and joyful expression, she gave me the impression of a lively person.
The woman approached us while laughing.
"One person able to react to the disturbance of magic power, two able to reach when they saw it and the other two unable to react to it Un, I think I can roughly grasp your abilities"
Then, Claire responded to the woman.
" Nanami-san, you sure have a bad hobby as usual. Moreover, I should have explained Rin-kuns situation in advance to you. What would you do if he used his magic power, making his condition worse?"
"I would have had to apologize if that really happened. But then, he is a person whom Claire took interest in after all. So, I believe that would never happen. In fact, he not only noticed my attack, but could also look at your reaction and grasp the situation."
" Sigh, Nanami-san sure doesn't change."
"Of course, people don't change that easily, you know? However you don't seem to be so."
"? Did you just say something?"
"Nope, I just said that Claire-kun's silver hair sure is beautiful, no matter how many times I see them. May I thoroughly touch them later?"
" That's a bit creepy, so, no."
"Fumu. Looks like that indifferent part of yours didn't change either. But well, let's talk about it later and"
At long last, the woman directed her gaze at us. Then, once again, while displaying a fearless smile that in a sense could be called wicked, she
"Yaa, nice to meet you. My name is Nanami Shizuka, the guild master of Classion and at the same time, the 10th S-rank adventurer in Japan."
The woman who ambushed us on our first encounter (not a typo) Nanami Shizuka said while giving us a wink.
"Best regards from now on."
For me, she is the second S-rank an adventurer whose level was over 100,000, that I encountered.
