Chapter 209: 220 Found Out

'Ah it is good to taste the outside air again.'

Taking in a deep breath and enjoying the cool refreshing air outside of the dungeon, Marcus let his mind relax now that they were no longer in the dungeon.

'It is good to not have to be on edge ready for an attack at any moment.'

Coming out into the city streets of Lethallan, Marcus took a good look up at the night sky and stared at the stars that had been absent while in the dungeon.

'Hm, a third moon. All this time here and this is the first time I have seen it.'

After looking at the new moon in the sky in a trance like state for a couple of minutes, Marcus suddenly felt a hand tug on his own and saw Lilia beckoning him to keep moving.

"Sorry got lost in thought for just a moment there."

Coming out of his daze Marcus continued walking down the streets as they headed to the guild hall, so that Lilia could submit her completed request and rank up once more.

Standing in line Marcus and Lilia were getting closer to the front of the reception windows when one of the guild staff came up to them and said, "The guild master would like to see the two of you."

Looking towards the guild employee, Marcus was surprised to see the stern look on their face and was wondering why the guild master wanted to see them.

'Don't tell me that Jarek did not tell his wife about the boss fight, and she found out and is angry.'

With Lilia in tow Marcus followed the guild employee up to the guild master's office, and when he walked in, he saw her sitting down looking over some papers.

However, when she looked up there was a definite look of anger as she stared at Marcus, who could not understand why the seemingly polite guild master he had met was now looking at him with such displeasure.

Without looking away from Marcus and Lilia, Dahlia said towards the guild employee, "Thank you Madelyn you may go now."

Madelyn then gave a little bow before walking away down the hall leaving Marcus and Lilia alone with the guild master.

In a stern tone Dahlia said, "Come in and sit down, you have some explaining to do."

Feeling the seriousness in her voice, Marcus began walking into the room, though Lilia seemed to be stuck in place as she was sweating nervously.

Grabbing her hand, Marcus gave Lilia a reassuring smile before leading her in and sitting down next to her in the chairs facing the guild master.

"What am I going to do with you two. Did you really think that I would not find out huh?"

"Um if this about me heading out to fight the boss with your husband I do not think it warrants this kind of intervention. If you do not want him to go you can always just tell him." Marcus said with an innocent smile.

However, as he did Dahlia slammed her fist down onto her desk actually causing the wood to crack and splinter.

Seeing this Lilia let out a slight yap and Marcus' smile vanished as he looked at the guild master inquisitively.

"This has nothing to do with you and Jarek's plan to go fight the boss, I already agreed to it since he is planning to bring you and Treasa along. In fact, it is only because of you saving my husband that I have not already revoked both of your guild memberships." Dahlia said with a conflicted expression.

After hearing this Marcus wonder what was going on, as far as he knew they had not done something to warrant the ire of the guild master.

'Unless.'

There was one thing they had done that was against the guilds rules and even actually against the laws of the kingdom.

'Did she find out about me sneaking Lilia into the dungeon.'

Unfortunately, Marcus' fear was soon confirmed as the guild master said, "I know that you gave your sister your guild card and ID in order to get her into the Cordillera Depths. After your meet up with Jarek, I looked both you and your sister up. And to my surprise your sister only registered here a few weeks ago, but somehow got into the dungeon even at the cooper rank. And while I do not know how you snuck in after her, what you did is against the rules of the guild and the kingdom's laws."

At this point Lilia was actually beginning to tremble, she had never really been in trouble like this, and she was not good with being yelled at by people in a position of power.

Yet Marcus was remaining calm, showing fear or weakness in this situation would not help him.

'If she was going to just revoke our membership and turn us over, she would have already done so.'

Confidently Marcus stared right in Dahlia's eyes and said, "So why are we here then receiving a lecture. If you want to revoke our membership, go ahead and do so and then turn us over to the authorities since we broke the law."

Marcus then had a stare down with Dahlia as she looked at him menacingly before she let out and exasperated sigh and began messaging her temples with her hand.

"If I did that it would cause me a great deal of headaches and a mound of paperwork, and at worst all you would lose is your guild membership and receive a fine. If you were not a titled noble you would be looking at jail time, but since no one got hurt and I am the only one that knows, just this once I will let it slide."

Hearing this Lilia's stiff posture visibly relaxed and Marcus let out an internal sigh of relief.

"However, if you do this again, I do not care how much trouble it will cause me I will see you lose your guild membership and be brought up on charges." Dahlia said gravely.

Nodding his head Marcus said, "Fine I will not sneak Lilia into the dungeon anymore, but does that mean once she reaches silver rank, she can go in."

"Yes, once she has the appropriate rank, she will be able to go into the dungeon without issue."

'I guess Lilia has already made some good progress, taking a bit of time to do some easy requests and rank up may be good for her.'

Thinking about it in a positive light Marcus figured it would not be so bad, Lilia's level was already that of a fledgling knight and her stats were already higher than someone at level thirty without any stat boosting items.

Yet as he was thinking about this Dahlia began speaking again, and said with a severe tone, "Now then since I am doing you a favor you are going to do something for me. I do not care what it takes but make sure that Jarek comes back alive. If he ends up dying in that boss fight, I will bring up what we just discussed about."

Marcus then watched in a very subtle movement as Dahlia moved her hand over he stomach, and realized that maybe there was more than just being the guild master that had caused her to stop adventuring.

"Have you already told Jarek."

Dahlia looked at Marcus in surprise and quickly noticed that she had unconsciously put her hand over her stomach.

"No, I have not. He has always wanted to fight a boss in the Cordillera Depths, but to this point has not had the opportunity. If I told him he would not go to prioritize me, but it would eat him up inside so I figured I would tell him when he got back, and he will get back."

"Of course, I will do everything in my ability to make sure he gets back alive no matter what, I would not want his unborn child to grow up without a father." Marcus said with resolution in his voice and expression.

"Very well then, go ahead and have your sister turn in her completed requests, and I am sure at her current level she will reach silver rank in no time."

With that Marcus' and Lilia's tense meeting with the guild master came to an end and the two of them headed back down to the main hall.

Queuing up in line again Marcus and Lilia waited until they were able to turn Lilia's requests in and get her ranked up to iron.

"Okay Lilia I guess our little plan has backfired a bit, but all in all things turned out okay. So go and pick up some request to do and you can get working on ranking up. Feel free to do it at whatever pace you want there is no hurry."

Lilia nodded towards Marcus before heading up to the request board and picking out a series of steel rank and unranked requests.

'At level twenty-five I no longer need to keep an eye on her all the time, none of those requests should give her any trouble, so while she works on raising her rank, I can work on getting ready for the boss fight.'
