Chapter 482


    Chapter 482: The Guild Master''s Office


    A few dayster, I received a message from the guild.


    The message stated that No Name and Chloe had arrived at the guild headquarters together, and I was requested to go and pick them up.


    If we were to travel without teleportation, it would take too much time.


    While it''s true that No Name alone would be able to move faster than normal travel, it would still take considerably more timepared to teleportation.


    Therefore, I flew to the guild headquarters.


    "So you havee..."


    As I flew to the guild leader''s room as usual, Clyde, who seemed tired, greeted me.


    "You look tired."


    "It''s tiring. Reassigning the SS-ss adventurers is unheard of."


    Generally, SS-ss adventurers are selfish. Unless they have a significant reason, they wouldn''t change their base of operations. As a guild, we don''t interfere much either, as it would be foolish to upset the SS-ss adventurers. It''s easier to move other adventurers from the region where the SS-ss adventurers are present. So, it''s rare for two SS-ss adventurers to move, like in this case.


    "Well, we have to dispel the darkness of the guild. Some hardships are unavoidable."


    "...I will continue to treat you as Silver, and I don''t intend to be overly concerned."


    "Of course, I''d appreciate it if you could do that."


    "It helps. However, let me say this... honestly, do we have a chance of winning? From our perspective, it looks like an uphill battle."


    I nodded in agreement with Clyde''s words.


    The worst-case scenario is No Name and Elna colliding with full force.


    In other words, it''s the sh between the Holy Sword and Dis Pater.


    But...


    "It''s fifty-fifty. It depends on how they perceive this opportunity."


    "What do you mean?"


    "Is it an enemy reconnaissance or a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? If it''s thetter, there''s hardly anything we can do. If they are fully intent on attacking, we''ve lost the moment we set foot in the Imperial Capital."


    "Hey..."


    "Well, the chances of that are low. I know both the Holy Sword and the Dark God. The Dark God still hasn''t caught up to the Holy Sword. They must be aware of that. Otherwise, they wouldn''t try to use the me God as bait."


    "But when faced with a hero, you can''t predict how they''ll act... can you?"


    It''s been a five-hundred-year-long aspiration. They might lose theirposure. In that case, the only option would be to forcefully teleport them... but if that happens, the opportunity will be lost.


    Of course, it''s an opportunity for No Name to change.


    That would be a loss for the guild.


    The actions of the previous generation are suspicious. They sent Nigel to the Imperial Capital, and before that, they helped Rafael. They imed to have been asked, but who asked them? That bes the question.


    It''s difficult to resist the demons when there are people close to them. Moreover, No Name is one of the strongest forces.


    Ideally, we want unity in the battle against the demons.


    "I hope it doesn''t turn out that way."


    "I hope so too."


    After having such a conversation, a little whileter...


    No Name arrived at the guild leader''s room ahead of me.


    "I have work to do. I''m counting on you, Silver."


    "Understood."


    Saying that, Clyde left the room.


    Silence lingered for a while, but eventually, No Name spoke up.


    "...First, I''d like to apologize for the other day. I apologize on behalf of the previous generation."


    "From the way you speak, did you not know?"


    "That''s right. I was told that I could strengthen Dis Pater, and that''s why I went there. However, even if I knew the circumstances, I would still have chosen to strengthen Dis Pater. So, not knowing doesn''t matter much."


    "I see. Well, let''s leave it at that. It''s already in the past. I''ve received apologies andpensation from the guild. I don''t have any intention to me anyone at this point."


    The plot this time is that the guild suggested No Name''s trip to the Imperial Capital as part of Dis Pater''s strengthening process. This way, the guild can appear to be cooperating with No Name, and the previous generation has no choice but to ept it suspiciously. In reality, No Name went along with it. The important thing now is my response. I mustn''t show too much interest in No Name.


    "While it''s fine to aim to surpass the Holy Sword and the hero, this time we''ll just observe. Let''s avoid confrontation. That''s the condition."


    "Of course."


    No Name''s responsecked emotion.


    How much can I trust this answer?


    While thinking about such things, I gave a wry smile.


    No Name probably had simr thoughts.


    No Name must be unsure of the true intention hidden behind my mask because I have little to gain from this.


    "...Silver. Did you really ept the guild''s proposal?"


    "What do you mean?"


    "I don''t think you''re the kind of person who readily epts proposals from others."


    "I see. So you think of me that way. I did impose conditions. But that doesn''t concern you. Don''t worry about it."


    So as not to be probed too much, I cut the conversation short.


    At that moment, the door to the guild leader''s room opened.


    And...


    "Oh, Master!"


    A cheerful voice echoed through the room.
