Chapter 102 Orphans (1/2)

“Hey Elodia, did so onto a chair The wood started squeaking due to the e frame

It was already past sundown andkids were fast asleep The few candles that were lighting up this place made it hard to see but this was all that they could afford for now

“Yes, could you explain this…”

Elodia, as a worker at the adventurer’s guild, placed down a piece of paper on the nearby table It looked like one of the uild Armand looked at the piece of paper fro what this was about

“What is this?”

“Read it”

Elodia waited while tapping her foot on the wooden floor Arrab the piece of paper He was nervous that they were having this talk as he thought that Lobelia had snitched on hiirl he had ed to convince her to not tell anyone about what had happened that day This required a little bribe but it would keep hi to explain it to Elodia here

He started going through this piece of paper and the more he read the more his forehead went up This was a copy of the forainst the guild rules but she would bend those slightly for one of her own

“That bastard! Where is he, I’h the piece of paper in a fit of rage On the form that Roland filled out was a detailed recount of what had happened that day It listed the name of the party that attacked Bernir and the people involved Roland had asked his assistant about it and filled everything in

There was also a recount of Arnored Roland's advice and didn’t want to go to the guild to clear everything up Roland had specifically written that he had asked Aruild but was ignored instead

He also ered the citizens in the city and that Aruild There were also souild and put on probation

A probation period could be put on a guild member for various reasons It would cause theet less money for their work This was mostly done to punish people that didn’t perform their missions on time or failed them multiple times in a row

“Sit down!”

Elodia raised her voice at Arht the half-elven girl over that was already listening in fro sister called Ar

“Hey you thy don’t we calm down Armand if you raise your voice thisdoofus”

Lobelia whispered after closing the door behind herself

“Lobelia, you know so about this, explain yourself”

Elodia knew that the young half-elf girl was hiding soe ever since a few days ago Even now she was convinced that they were hiding so sister Armand and Lobelia opened up They recounted the story from their point of view Armand wanted to paint himself as a noble warrior that just wanted to help souild Roland on the other hand was described as avillain that just beat up everyone that looked at him

“You are friends with that Devyn?”

Elodia recalled hearing that naainst thattier 1 adventurers but whenever so they soon took that clais were threatening theuild couldn’t punish them

“I told you not to associate with people like those! And ere you doing in that district to begin with?”

The angry wolared at both Armand and Lobelia that felt attacked She only used one of her tracking skills to search for her idiot partyclose to the red light district of the city

“I didn’t do anything wrong, it's all that guy's fault!”

“The guild ht not see it your way…”

Armand was quickly corrected

“Hoould they? I’ave out a sigh after hearing Ar in any shape or for passed where she had to take care of this idiot brother of hers

This was an orphanage that she helped set up in the city The three of them also came froeon becauild and these two followed after With tier houses to help the children with no parents

“Stop calling the guild ht not be able to help you… or could choose not to…”

“What do youto talk quietly Elodia gave out a sight while gathering the pieces of paper that were previously a copy of Roland’s foro to this Wayland and apologize? He seeht take back his coht around lately, even ilist class would be maxed out at l 50 and then he would be able to select a er adventurers and the guild uild leader

“Me apologize? Never! I would never apologize to a coward like that”

“Coward?”

Elodia asked with a raised eyebrow

“Yes, we could have resolved it like men but instead he went and done this!”

“Like ressively sounding colder A vein on her forehead started to appear while she grasped a book froht, of course!”

Are book straight to the face

“Didn’t you already lose a one-on-one fight to him before? What would have happened if Lobelia didn’t arrive on ti woht that Roland and Armand had If the half-elf didn’t arrive it looked like Ar a toll on hi like a coward now?”

A barrage of books and pottery descended on Aric It was obvious that he had a thick head and unless soive an inch

“Hey s-stop, the fight never finished so I never lost!”

Are hands while slowly evacuating froht never reached a conclusion In his experience, there was always a chance for a reversal during coht Even though his skill deflated hi He was confident that if he ti victorious

“Stop being a child and go apologize!”

“Never!”

The conversation ended with Ar out of the rooers as the large man escaped outside

“Get back here this instant!”

“Ahh… think on’t see hiets… Do you really think hea wooden plate up that she wanted to toss at the escaping Arh
