Chapter 483: Silver's Disciple
The girl who entered the room had dark purple hair that was almost black. She had two swords at her waist. She seed to have grown a bit taller since the last ti I saw her but her cheerful smile remained the sa. With that smile, Chloe energetically embraced .
"Long ti no see!"
"It has been a while. Congratulations on your promotion to S-rank. Did you grow a bit taller and let your hair grow?"
"Yeah! Does it suit ?"
"Yeah, it suits you."
It was a short conversation. It might seem abrupt for a conversation after three years, but there was no distance between us. We could talk just like before because Chloe was smiling brightly the whole ti.
"I didn't expect you to have a disciple..."
"She's my proud disciple. Let introduce her. She's Chloe, an S-rank adventurer. And this is No Na, an SS-rank adventurer."
"You're No Na!? You really do wear a mask like Master! Oh! Is that Dis Pater? I also use a magic sword!"
"Uh, well..."
Chloe approached No Na with a smile and observed her mask before turning her attention to Dis Pater. No Na was taken aback by Chloe suddenly getting close. In the entire continent, there are only five SS-rank adventurers. Normally, people would be intimidated or show respect. It's normal to keep so distance. However, Chloe must have gotten used to , as she only saw those with such titles as exceptionally strong individuals.
"From now on, we'll be working together in the Imperial Capital! I've heard that you're very strong! I'm looking forward to it!"
"Together... what do you an?"
"Weren't you explained? While I'm away, you and Chloe will take care of the high-difficulty requests in the Imperial Capital. So, act together."
"Together? I don't want to be with a burden."
"I won't be a hindrance! Ill stay by your side!"
"Can you keep up?"
"I can use ancient magic too, so don't worry about that!"
No Na attempted to say more but stopped herself. It was a decision by the guild. No Na must have been prepared for so form of monitoring, so it wasn't unexpected. However, the observer turned out to be too friendly.
"Then let's go."
Saying that, I opened the teleportation gate.
Adventurers Guild Imperial Capital Branch.
As I arrived there through teleportation, I noticed that the atmosphere was different from usual.
First, the tables were stacked up like barricades.
"They're here!"
"Two SS-ranks and an S-rank! If sothing happens, the Imperial Capital is done for!"
"Silver always brings us troubleso matters! What an idiot!"
"You idiot! Don't provoke them! He's like a kid!"
"Is this branch going to end today?"
"What's the point of these barricades!?"
"Don't worry! Even if the hero or the celestial princess cos, there won't be any issues. In other words, this place is safe!"
"That's true. Are you a genius or sothing?"
"Enough, it's embarrassing."
Idiots.
I was tempted to throw a light ball at them, but I refrained. That would only affirm their words about being like a kid. I ignored them and tried to introduce No Na and Chloe to the guild receptionist, but I noticed that Chloe wasn't by my side.
"Hello! I'm always taken care of by my Master."
As I looked, Chloe had gone over to the adventurers hiding behind the barricades. The adventurers took a step back, wondering when she had gotten so close, but her words left them thoughtful.
"Huh? Wait a minute?"
"Master?"
"Taken care of? There's only one SS-rank adventurer we're taking care of..."
"Huh? Master! Did I make a mistake by revealing that I'm your disciple?"
"It's fine. It's not sothing that needs to be kept secret at this point. Besides, I haven't been taken care of by them."
"Oh, I'm glad. I thought I ssed up by saying it."
Chloe smiled, but the adventurers who heard her words all had twisted expressions.
"Si-Silver's disciple!?"
"He's teaching people!?"
"He who is like a bundle of secrets took on a disciple ..."
"Wait... then this girl is the new S-rank adventurer and Silver's disciple..."
"She's an ancient magic user!?"
"Well, I can use ancient magic too, but I'm primarily a swordsman. Since I mostly operated alone in Mizuho, I might be a bit of a nuisance, but please take care of ."
Chloe bowed her head slightly.
Seeing this, all the adventurers turned their attention to .
"Hey, she's a well-mannered girl..."
"Is she really his disciple...?"
"The guy who talks back to the emperor? There's no way he can teach her manners..."
"Originally, she must have been a polite child. It's good that she didn't inherit her master's bad traits."
"I don't want you guys lecturing about manners. Chloe, co here quickly."
"Yes!"
While heaving a sigh, I reintroduced No Na and Chloe to the guild staff at the Imperial Capital Branch.
"No Na, an SS-rank adventurer, and Chloe, an S-rank adventurer. I'll be leaving the Imperial Capital for a while, so these two will be taking my place."
"Y-Yes! Could you please write your nas on this paper for provisional registration?"
Saying that, the receptionist handed No Na and Chloe a paper. It was a temporary registration. By writing their nas, they would beco mbers of the Imperial Capital Branch.
"Accommodations have been prepared for both of you. I think I already inford you of the location, but is everything alright?"
"Yes, we've been inford."
"Then, please stay in touch with each other."
"Huh? It's not at the Master's house? Why do we have to get our own base?"
"Why should I offer my house as a base? That's no reason to."
"Aww, co on! We still have ti, right? Show us around the Imperial Capital! Both No Na-san and I aren't familiar with it."
I was about to teleport away imdiately, but Chloe caught before I could. No Na wanted to refuse, but Chloe cut her off.
"I...?"
"Information is important for adventurers! We can't act in an unfamiliar place during ergencies, so providing at least basic guidance is our responsibility, I think."
"Well, well... You've beco quite clever in my absence."
"Ouch."
I lightly tapped Chloe's forehead with my finger and turned on my heel. I didn't have an abundance of ti, but I had enough ti to spare for my disciple.
"Follow . I'll show you the major buildings."
"But, Silver, I..."
"It's decided!"
Overridden by Chloe, No Na couldn't say anything and ended up following us.
