Chapter 5: 5

*Shing* Cuena draws the sword hanging from her waist.

Inside the red scabbard was a burning red blade that looks incredibly hot.

!? What!?

“Wait a minute! We really gonna fight? In here? This place is crowded!”
“No need for excuses! It’s fine as long as you don’t cut the bystanders.”
“You won’t see my full power if I have to hold back.”
“Argh… What then? Should we move somewhere else?”

She’s upset ‘cause I didn’t agree with her.
Move somewhere else you say…?

“How ‘bout you do the Guild’s Fight, then?”
“”The Guild’s Fight?””

My voice overlapped with Cuena’s.
Her face flushed as red as her hair and eyes, then she lashed at me.

“Don’t match my voice! Don’t we totally look like we’re in sync now?”
“How unreasonable!”

What’s with this place? Is it no different from the Knights Order?

“I guess Jeed needs a rough explanation. Do you know how you advance in ranks?”
“Isn’t it by taking requests?”
“Well! I guess taking on quests is important. Since you given “points” upon success.”
“Points?”
“The Guild’s Fight I just mentioned is fighting over those points, y’know.”

She then gave an easy explanation.
It’s a competition over the points earned after completing requests.
The deadline is in three days.

Why three days?
It’s simply the time it takes to complete high-ranked requests.

“Well, I don’t mind but isn’t this to my favor?”
“How so~?”
“I’m more familiar with points. And I know how to take on multiple quests smoothly.”

“You really are talented to get to A rank without ever joining a team, y’know.”
“Huh-huh~”

Cuena had a smug face on. Was it because of Riff’s compliment?

“But if we’re talking about this time’s winner. My money’s on Jeed.”
“Are you insane… ?”
“Do I look crazy to you?”
“Well, whatever!”

Riff confidently nodded.
I’m happy that someone shows so much confidence in me. It was always “There’s always replacement for you!” in the Knight Order….

“If Jeed loses, he won’t be promoted to S rank but what if he wins?”
“What? I won’t be promoted to S rank like everyone says I should?”
“Soria already called that.”
“Whatever you want then.”
“That’s not up to me.”

Saying so, Riff turned to me. So did Cuena.

Oh, I see. Are they asking me about my compensation?
Is it just natural that I lose my title if I lose?

“A guide, then?”
“A guide? What’s that?”
“I’m not very familiar with the city. I’ve only heard about it and caught a glimpse during missions. So you’ll have to show me around for a while.”

Cuena looked at me with a “really?” face.
What do you want from me? That’s the first thing that popped into my mind.
Plus, I don’t think it’s that bad either. I get to spend time with her and I won’t get lost to weird places. I’ve heard a lot about the capital.

“Are you sure you’re satisfied with just that? She said she would do anything, y’know? Even *giggle*….”
“I never said I would do anything!!!”
“Do you think you’ll lose?”
“Of course not!”
“Isn’t it fine then?”
“……? O-Of course. Indeed…”
“Can I ask you to be my woman instead of my guide then?”

“No way!”
“Damn…”

I went in at the critical moment but still failed. Her guard’s high.
Why even mention it in the first place then ….?

“If I win, the S rank promotion is mine. If Jeed wins, I’ll be his guide. Right?”
“Who said you’d get a promotion? Jeed would just lose his.”

At Riff’s jab, Cuena giggled then gave a little knock on her own head.
Cute yet sly.

Did she target me just because she wanted a promotion herself? Well, I don’t see any other motivation.

Riff lightly coughed to get our attention again.

“In the event Cuena wins, Jeed’s promotion is withdrawn. In the event Jeed wins, Cuena will become his guide. Is that correct?”
“Yes, it is.”
“Nothing wrong.”

With my and Cuena’s consent, the point challenge called “Guild’s Fight” started.
