Passing through the door they were directed to, there was a small bright room beyond it.

There were hardly any furnishings placed in the room. In the center of the room there was a lonely desk with two chairs facing it from across the table. That was all that was present in this room.

Incidentally, Renya picked up a weird sensation as he entered through the door, but he remained silent about it as Shion and Rona hadnt mentioned anything before entering the room.

Inside the room there was one man sitting on a chair.

It was impossible to determine his age from his looks.

His slender face was small with a pale colored complexion. His blond hair spilled down, exceeding his shoulders in length. His firm body build told anyone on the first look that he was male. However comparing him to the adventurers within the guilds building you could call him very slender, almost to the extent of being thin.

His eyes were narrow, giving off a feeling of being tired.1

One way or the other it was possible to perceive that the color of his eye were green.

The tailored robe he was wearing gave off a pleasant feeling and was colored navy blue.

No decorations could be seen on the robe except a single item appearing to be a silver medal hanging at the height of his chest.

Yaa, nice of you to come to visit. (-)

Without standing up, he greeted them in a soft voice. Shion lightly bowed her head.

Also, as if being prompted into it, Rona bowed as well. Somehow Renya got the feeling that it wouldnt be a good idea to not follow up on it either and thus he bowed himself in the end as well.

It has been a while, honored deputy branch leader(Shion)2

While raising her head again, Shion spoke those words. Somehow her voice seemed as if she were squeezing them out though.

How to say it, it seems as if she doesnt want to talk to this person if at all possible that was the impression her voice emitted but was that really fine? At any rate, it is quite obvious that she wants to leave this place even if it is a second sooner.Renya carefully observed the seated vice-guild leader while trying to ascertain the reason for her dislike to remain here.

Its futile, Lost (-)

Has he noticed my particular look of observation?The deputy branch leader shifted his attention towards Renya.

The gaze of his barely opened eyes emitted a deeper comprehension. It reminded Renya somehow of a snake or lizard or some other kind of the reptile family. Somehow Renya felt a cold shiver run down his spine.

Well, just by looking, you wont be able to understand why those girls have such antipathy towards me. After all, my outer appearance is perfect. (-)

Please teach me where this unfounded confidence comes from. (Renya)

Laughing with a grinning face, the deputy branch leader appeared to really be a fairly gentle mannered man. His calm expression didnt seem to have any faults either, or at least none that were easily seen through.

Yet, the degree of Shions impression of him appears to rank him as someone with a poor reputation.

How about Rona?Renya tried to read Ronas facial expression. There he could only find her usual mask of a smiling face stuck there as it was, making a suitable judgment quite difficult.

Since Shion and Rona already know about me, I should introduce myself to the Lost over there, huh? I am the deputy branch leader in charge of this adventurers guild branch in Kukrika, Fritz =3Rustbrid(T/N: >> Furitsu = Rusutoburido
