Vol 6 Chapter 79 (1/2)

Within Ienith’s Healer’s Guild, I requested the oldest healer, Mark-san, to be my subst.i.tute as the person-in-charge but he firmly refused and gave me easily understandable reasons.

“Jordo may be young but he has greater unifying ability than me. The healers, including me, recommend Jordo as Luciel-dono’s successor.”

” … Would you all devote yourself and support him like you have done for me until now?”

“Yes. We have not told Jordo, but to allow the Healer’s Guild to take root in this land, the most important factor is to manage it for the long term, regardless of the changing of the Healer’s Guild guildmaster.”

“I see. Understood. Well then, I wish that you will a.s.sist Jordo-san in the future.”

“Yes! Luciel-sama.”

He left the guildmaster room with a smile.

The next day, I appointed Jordo-san as the Healer’s Guild’s a.s.sistant guildmaster.

“I will entrust the management of the Healer’s Guild to you from today onwards. As soon as the new Healer’s Guild is completed within the Healer’s District, you will become the Healer’s Guild guildmaster in that Healer’s Guild.”

Jordo-san who was standing in front of me showed me a bewildered expression.

“This is a consensus from the healers. In addition, we have obtained approval from the Pope and I believe the notification will arrive soon so I wish you all the best.”

” … Why did you choose me?”

“Your youth and unifying ability. To be honest, I followed seniority and asked Mark-san but he neatly turned me down and gave me an explanation. Moreover, for me, it would be easier to converse if it is Jordo-san.”

” … Ha~ I understand. I accept.”

“Thank you. Well, we are both middle management roles who have no right to decline so let’s both work hard.”

I extended my right hand as I laughed and Jordo-san also extended his right hand and we exchanged a firm handshake.

For the following 10 days after we returned from the labyrinth, such movement of personnel occurred and there were a couple of matters that I had decided upon.

Firstly, I formed the criminal slaves into Kefin squad, Yarubo squad, and Baderu squad and a.s.signed them to be in charge of escorting.

The escort target to defend was me and the Healer’s Guild. I would have 2 squads of escorts and the Healer’s Guild would have 1 squad of escort reside within the guild.

To put it simply, other than defending the Healer’s Guild once every 3 days, they would be by my side.

Lionel and Cathy would act as my escort and training partner while Naria would, as much as possible, be in charge of the food and ch.o.r.es in the Healing District.

Dolan and Paula are to a.n.a.lyse the items we obtained in the labyrinth and I have requested for them to make the items I want but it seems like they are struggling with that so they are obedient for now.

Hearing a knock on the door, I descended the stairs together with Kefin who came up to call me, discovering Kefin’s squad, Baderu’s squad, and Lionel and Cathy waiting. Gathering the leaders, we headed for the mansion.

” … Why do I sense eyes of fear and respect?”

What awaited me when I left the Healer’s Guild were that kind of stares.

“It seems like after you made Jasuan-dono drink that, they are afraid of you.”

Kefin told me.

” … But he woke up soon after we left right?”

“He was trembling after he heard S-rank-sama’s name so it conveyed to the others that something happened.”

” … I have a really bad feeling.”

“If I remember correctly, your new nickname was …”

“Ah~ Not listening not listening. This conversation is over!”

I slightly covered my ears and quickly walked ahead. The squad leaders gathered and headed for the mansion.

Even though they were laughing at the sight of me, they still firmly acted as my escorts.

The mansion gate guards greeted us as we entered and the entourage of the respective representatives of each tribe welcomed us.

Incidentally, there was the trembling Jasuan-dono with Jias-dono beside him supporting him.

Seeing him, I wonder if I was a little too severe? Although I had that thought, I consider it a legitimate punishment so I disregarded that thought and addressed the representatives of the respective tribes.

“Thank you for coming out to greet us. The Pope have told me to do my best for Ienith so I will accept the role of representative. I am incompetent and an amateur to urban development so without your help I would not be able to achieve anything. Which is why, please cooperate with me to once again make Ienith prosper.”

There was a significant change within my heart these 10 days.

In the beginning, I was reluctant, to begin with, I didn’t have a complete grasp of the situation so there was no need for me to b.u.t.t in.
