"Dexter, I really admire your nature of always wanting to think positively, but my answer still remains the same. I won't register an underage as an Adventurer, and there is nothing you can do or say that will change my mind".
"wow Anna, that's really cold of you to act".
"cold, harsh. Say whatever you want about me, and I still won't grant you your request. If you want something of this magnitude get done, you need to go directly to the guild master and ask for permission before I can fulfill your request".
Anna's refusal to carry out Dexter's will without being told to by the guild master, was strongly conveyed to him.
If she was unwilling to help him, he knew he had no other choice but to ask the guild master for permission, if he really is desperate enough to want to register Dana as an adventurer.
"is this really how you want to play? I can't ask you for a favor anymore, is that it".
Anna ignored Dexter's question, feigning ignorance by keeping herself busy with the books on her desk.
"thanks for nothing, Anna".
"anytime, Dexter".
Anna replied Dexter with a sarcastic tone, not even bothering herself to raise her head up to look at him as he exit from her desk.
Dexter took Dana with him, and climbed up the stairs leading to the upper floor where the guild master's office is.
Unlike Edevin that is only two storey tall, this build is three storey. The first floor is meant for adventurers who are under the E rank to B rank. They have their quest board on the floor, with missions suitable for their rank for them to take on.
The second floor on the other hand, is meant for adventurers starting with an A rank upward. Their mission board is also provided for them on their floor, along with a receptionist of their own to meet their necessary demands regarding quest information.
The numbers of A rank adventurers and above, in not just the city, but in every human nation itself, is very minimal.
It's like trying to find black stones in sandy type soil. It is present, but can only be seen when searched well.
There are some adventurers under the A rank position who out of envy, complained about the above A rank adventurers getting a floor all to themselves, when their numbers are never enough to fill said floor.
Their complaints however was not properly adhered to, due to their inability to voice out and standby their words in the face of the A rankers and above.
What the guild council decided upon after seeing for themselves that making a separate floor for A rank adventurers and above required a lot of expenses, they resorted to only making floors when the numbers of A rank in a particular guild was more than three.
In the case of Edevin where their A rank is only Ricus, and a retired old man, it was decided that they did not require having a third building and can make do with the current one they have.
Dexter passed by the floor where A ranks are gathered, and continued walking up the stairs.
Under normal circumstances, Dexter being an A rank adventurer himself, is expected to drop by on the floor meant for A ranks, to greet his friends or attend to other matters with the receptionist there, but he did none of those.
Reasons for Dexter's rude action, is because the higher rank adventurers in Khamor city do not view Dexter and his group in a friendly manner. They like any other normal people, are jealous of the Dire Hammer achievements across the world.
Dexter could care less what they think of him, and would go to any lengths to ignore them, especially now that his two friends are dead, he can only imagine the sort of horrid words they are talking about behind him.
"okay Dana, listen here".
Dexter got to the door leading to the room the guild master is in. He stopped at the door, and turned to Dana who was by his side.
"when we get inside, I am going to plead to the guild master to allow you to register as an adventurer. I will surely be refused from letting that happen, but before i am, I want you to attack the guild master with the puppy eyes all children have".
Dexter squinting his eyes and trying to match its shape with what he thought of as cute, only to end up being very weird and scary with the veins popping out on his forehead.
"do you understand".
He asks her while still keeping on the weird face. Dana snickering in her mind, nodded as a reply to Dexter's question.
"good, here we go".
Dexter with his hand on the handle, pressed it down slightly and pulled it open.
"before you ask, my answer is yes, I will help you".
A woman's voice rang out from the room before Dexter's leg touched the inside. She had looks putting her in her forties, and her two blessed breasts still standing upright, making one wonder if she really is in her forties or not.
"guild master, what do you plan on helping me with".
Dexter tried to hide expression like he does not know what the guild master was talking about.
"i heard you from where I was sitting Dexter. Have you forgotten who I am".
"how could I".
Damn it. Is what Dexter thought in his mind. His guild master, isn't like an other guild master. She is an S class veteran adventurer who decided to quit not because of old age, but because she enjoyed bossing around the younger one's.
A complete totalitarian guild master who wouldn't hesitate to send the adventurers under her into the depths of hell back and forth several times.
"so you heard?".
Dexter asked, taking his seat in front of the guild master, and shifting the chair beside him for Dana to sit in.
"i did. And I will accept your request under one condition".
Dexter need not to be told before he knew what the guild master was about to ask of him. For sure, she wants to talk about bringing alive the Dire Hammer name instead of abandoning it.
Dexter had earlier expressed his feeling on letting foreign faces take on the name he and his friends worked hard to create, but at the same time, he does not want to bind himself down to the dead, and is willing to overlook it if it meant benefiting those still living.
"okay guild master, I will dance to your tune, but I also have a condition of my own".
"yes Dexter, you can continue being the leader of the Dire Hammer".
The guild master already knew what Dexter's demand would be, and so she granted it without giving it much thought. She had no reason to decline his offer when Dexter being the leader, is exactly what she also wanted.
"and also, can she be a member as well".
He pointed over to Dana who was sitting beside him, taking the guild master's gaze to her.
"Dexter, the Dire Hammer party is meant for A rank members alone".
"i am not asking for her to be a core member, just a side member until she grows up and be officially appointed as a core member".
Dexter said, conveying his words clearer for the guild master to understand.
"okay, she is in".
The guild master took some minute to decide what to do before giving her approval.
"if that is all, then I will go back down to go and register her".
"Dexter".
Getting up from his chair, the guild master called out with a gentle tone.
"about what happened to Riley and Caren".
"guild master".
Dexter turned to look at the guild master, stopping her from talking about his dead party members, and throwing pitiful shades at him.
"I am fine".
He assured the guild master he was doing alright, and flashed a smile her way before heading for the door with Dana.
