These Demons Do it for Free

After spending the whole day going around the city, we finally finished all of our errands when the sun had completely set.

Just how many things did we take care of today?@@novelbin@@

- Senior promotion application.
- A sudden meeting with Fiona's older brother, the Grand Duke.
- A consecutive meeting with Fiona herself.
- After that, the contract with Conquerors and the lower guild.
- Finally, the contract with Frontier and the lower guild.

It was a grueling schedule, as though I were short by two or three bodies. Looking back, I wonder if it was really necessary to rush this much.

"I wish we could’ve finished with Enigma too."

Maybe it’s because I handled the contracts, but I was completely mentally drained, while Leif seemed disappointed that she couldn’t squeeze in one more round.

Leif’s stamina is pretty good, I have to admit. Thinking back, I don’t think I’ve ever seen her suggest taking a break due to exhaustion?

"Didn’t you say we were going to Enigma?"  
"They said they’re closed."

I think we got there around 6 PM, but they locked up the moment we arrived.

Enigma, despite being one of the five major guilds, operated a guild house smaller than the Telema faction, and even that seemed poorly managed.

Enigma, to begin with, is a small guild with only thirteen members. The quality is unbelievably high, but in terms of size, it's fair to call it a small guild.

Except for one mandatory member who has to stay behind, everyone else is holed up in the Abyss, so it’s impossible for the guild house to be open all the time.

"So, for now, I’ll just recruit guild members and come back tomorrow."  
"Got it."

After quickly relaying the message to Ray, who didn’t know the situation since she arrived late, I explained tomorrow’s plans.

"This ties into tomorrow’s plan—so, tomorrow, everyone has their own tasks."
