Chapter 4 : I tried being invited


(Author's note :) It looks like I got a lot of view... Thank you.

------

It's been a week since I've joined the guild.
I completed requests steadily and I've raised my rank to D.
Today, like always, I've completed a request and I'm going to the guild to report.


"Hey! Isn't there a beautiful chick over there? Everybody have their request treated over there, but why do you deliberately come to me?"


He's asking me, feeling obviously irritated.
Even if he's asking me why...


"Well, I also thought at first there would be your typical cute chick at the reception desk. But I somehow got used to Clayman at the reception desk."


"You didn't have tooooo! My work has increaseeeeed!"


His voice is reverberating inside the guild.
Clayman is the staff member who was here when I registered in the guild at the beginning.


Three days after I registered, the other staff members have returned, but I have my request treated by him.
He's complaining but he does a quite neat job, so I have my requests treated by Clayman.


"It's your job so it's fine. Dont complain!"


There certainly is no reason not to come to him.


"No, the reception isn't my job originally. During the day of the parade, the other staff members took a vacation and there wasn't enough people so I did it", he complains while treating the request, looking troubled.
While I vaguely nodded along as he complains, the guild's entrance suddenly becomes noisy.


"Oh, is there something?"


As Clayman bent himself forward from the reception desk and look out at the entrance, I also turn head, and look at the center of the uproar.


"I'm sorry. Could you let me pass?"


There is my Godess Cecilia. From the surroundings, I can hear people asking why Lady Cecilia, the comrade of the Hero, is here.
it's an ambience similar to an idol's live from my previous live.
Even Clayman, who does things at his own pace while always finds most things bothersome, seems to be trembling a little.
She's slowly walking towards me.


"I'm sorry not contact you until now."


When seeing her bowing her head and apologize, the guild members around me stiffen.
Only Clayman doesn't stiffen and is looking at the outcome of things with his usual listless expression.


"Let's talk about the details in my house."


Then she says "let's go" to the stiffened me and pulls my arm.
Like that, I was leaded by her, and we leaved the guild.
After we left, we didn't concern ourself about the guild becoming amazingly noisy.

When we left the guild, she made me ride the coach with which it seems she came.


The coachman made a dubious expression when seeing me, but he bowed when Cecilia gave an explanation.
Now, I'm rocked by the coach that I rode for the first time.


"In fact, I've planned to come to meet you more quickly, but I didn't really have the time because of the succession of parades and parties..."


She apologizes and bowed. But she really didn't need to apologize......


"No, since I first came out of the castle, I also was fully enjoying the life in another world I longed for. You don't have to worry at all."


"......I appreciate you telling me that.."


Somehow, while she's still feeling down, I changed the topic of conversation.


"By the way, you were able to find me."


"......At first, I thought how I should find you, given that I didn't know your appearance after you disguised. Therefore, I tried searching someone who joined the guild recently."


I see, that should have been extremely troubling.


"......But I was able to find you quite quickly."


E- Eh?


"You didn't even change your name, your appearance also didn't change that much...... What are you thinking?"


"What are you saying? I perfectly change it."


My demon appearance didn't really change, and looked like my human appearance with an unattractive face.
If I have to point a problem, it would be the imposing horns in my forehead and the black wings that grew on my back.


"I even broke my horns and tear off my wings, while enduring the pain."


I could regrow them if I feel like it, but now, I intentionaly make it so it doesn't regrow.


"......Even so, the Hero party, including me, knows your face. Please at least wear glasses."


While we were debating about my disguise, the coach suddenly stopped.
it seems that we reached our destination, we got off the coach, being called out by the coachman.


"......Woah, it's huge."


A big mansion bursts in front of me. there are two people looking like soldiers in front of the gate.
I get off the coach and I was about to enter the mansion, but the soldiers stopped me.


"Welcome home, Young lady. ......Who's that man?"


The soldiers are pointing towards me their spears, holding me. Hey! You wanna fight?


"Please drop your spears! He is my friend."


The soldiers drop their spears. They still seem to have complaints, but they surely won't disobey Cecilia.
While I felt the soldiers' severe gazes, I entered the mansion, leaded by Cecilia.
