The Guild Master of Demon Hunters that the Empire is Obsessed With

3 – Takeover of the Ruined Guild (3)

After the man named Leonard left, Leana cleaned up the mess inside the guild.

She’s not very good looking since she’s been drinking all over for the past few days.

My father died and the guild gradually declined, so now there are no guild members left.

But that doesn’t mean that Leana, who has only been doing administrative work, can’t make direct requests.

Selling her father’s name, she worked hard, but she was ignored as a woman.

So she’s just drinking like this.

While cleaning her, Leah I tried to recall her previous conversation.

That’s why the man said he would use me as the leader of the pants guild to run the guild in an expedient way.

In order to establish a guild, the person to be the guild leader must have an academy diploma or more than 10 years of guild-related experience.

However, most people find it difficult to obtain either qualification, so they often form guilds this way.

A structure in which a person who is qualified but does not have the capital to establish a guild or is satisfied with living on a moderate salary because he hates headaches is appointed as the guild leader and he does the rest himself.

This kind of thing is called the ‘Officer’s Guild’ on this floor.

There are many cases where the person who sits as the office manager is the actual owner of the guild, so it was named that way.

Did you say demon hunter?

From what it looks like, it doesn’t look like it’s going to do that.

It’s the complete opposite of the image that comes to mind when people think of demon hunters, who are gloomy and slender, and have become half-devils themselves.

If he was wearing armor and wearing a bright cape, he had a good-looking appearance that would be trusted by any paladin.

Well, you can’t judge a person just by what they look like.

Leah I haven’t made a clear decision yet whether she should sell the guild or not.

As I talked about with Leonard earlier, this guild is very precious to Leah and me.

A guild she started with her father after her mother passed away early.

For the past 10 years, the guild has been life itself for Leana.

Until a while ago, it was unthinkable to close or trade a guild.

However, Leah or her alone will never be able to revive a fallen guild.

What’s more, she doesn’t do anything like this, it’s a legacy or a memory, so it’s embarrassing for her dead father to drink or drink.

Anyway, Leanna knows that the answer is to organize her guild and start a new life.

Let’s wait for now.

Leonard, who claims to be the demon hunter who killed the great demon that descended on the Grand Test, said he would bring the devil’s head.

After her father was killed by a demon, she was Leanna who morbidly sought revenge against the demon.

So I know better than anyone else that it is almost impossible for an ordinary person to kill a demon.

That only demon hunters endowed with innate talents can stand against demons.

If Leonar brings back the devil’s head, he’ll really be a demon hunter, and if so, he might be able to revive the guild again.

Despised by the world and risking their lives to fight demons, demon hunters are exceptional in many ways.

At the very least, it’s better than Leona scribbling at the desk.

“Can I really do that?”

Leanna asked as she wiped the dust off the frame of her father’s portrait.

In the portrait, Leona’s dad was smiling brightly as he held a young Leona in his arms.

“Can I leave the guild to that demon hunter since I can’t do it anymore by myself? Actually, I don’t think it matters much who is the real guild leader. As long as this building can be crowded with clients and guild members again.”

But the father in the portrait made no reply.

In the end I’ll have to make the decision.

From noble mtl dot com

I’m the guild leader now, not my dad.

Then the door opened and Leonard entered.

It’s been only half a day since I bravely went out to get the devil’s head.

I thought it would take at least a week.

Seeing you come back so quickly, everything I said earlier must have been a lie.

Well, demon hunters aren’t common anywhere, and what’s the point of setting up a guild? .

“Please check.”

Leonar set the heavy bag on his back to the floor.

No way… ?

Leah I approached her half-assedly and untied her sack.

“Huh?!”

Leana sighed as she met her gaze with her pale red eyes, and took a breath.

Leonard bent over him and raised the devil’s horn.

A large head with a rough surface and curved horns resembling that of a goat.

Devil’s unique purple hair and bright red pupils.

A sharp fang protruding from the lips.

On top of that, her skin has a strange color mixed with gray and black.

It was an undisputed devil.

“He hid in the border area of the duchy and lived on grape frost.”

“Uh, how can you do it so quickly…”

“I told you. A demon hunter.”

“That… Is it true…?”

She asked a question that made Leanna feel sorry for herself in an unbelievable situation.

“Can you fake something like this?”

“That’s right… Oh my God…”

Running her hands through her hair to clear her mind, Leanna stepped forward a little and studied her demon’s head closely.

“It’s a real devil… It’s the first time I’ve seen it up close…”

“It would be nice to hang it stuffed.”

“That’s right… The horns are really big…”

She looked up at Leonard as if she suddenly remembered Leana, who was frantically looking at the devil.

“Hey, have you eaten?”

It was past noon when Leonard arrived here, and now it is early evening when the sun is setting.

It was the right time for dinner.

“No. I haven’t done it yet. I’m running right away.”

“Then let’s go out first. Let’s talk while eating.”

“It’s good. I’m still very hungry.”

Leonard wrapped the devil’s head in a sack and set it down on the back of the sofa.

Meanwhile, Leahna locked her windows and back door and stuffed the stacks of papers piled up on her desk into her bag.

* * * * *

Leana and I entered a restaurant a short walk from the guild building.

It was an ordinary and unpretentious restaurant that boasted a quite atmosphere by lighting the outdoor tables with oil lamps.

The menu offers inexpensive items such as meat stew and freshwater fish dishes.

Even if I tried to choose, there were only those, so I decided to just eat the grilled fish.

After a while, a waitress came and poured us a glass of wine that we didn’t order.

“You didn’t order the wine?”

“We give you a free glass of wine here. It’s the same no matter where you go in the principality.”

Because it is the continent’s largest wine-producing region, it is generously given like water.

I held her glass under her nose and smelled the incense, as Leahana does.

The fresh and sweet fragrance spreads out elegantly, and it makes you feel at ease.

I took a sip and my mouth was filled with the taste of the soft wine.

The first taste was sweet and rich, and the moderate acidity that followed was very harmonious.

It’s not too strong or heavy, but it has depth in its taste and aroma.

As expected, it is the wine of the Duchy of Nantes.

It’s a really nice place to have something like this for free before dinner.

Leana opened her mouth while eating a well-grilled bluegill steak.

“So… Are you still willing to take over the guild?”

“Otherwise, would you have brought the devil’s head all the way here?”

“That’s right…”

Leah I nodded slowly and nibbled at her fish flesh.

“Are you still undecided?”

“No. A promise is a promise. I’ll sell it, guild. As promised, I’m still the guild leader, right?”

“Yes. If you want, you can participate in guild management. Actually, I don’t know much about guild administration.”

“Yes, yes… It’s not that difficult… But it would be easier if there was at least one more person.”

The more she talked, the more Leah I seemed to be intimidated by her.

Even after deciding to sell it, it seems that the guild left by her father is passing into the hands of someone else.

Still, it’s not like I took it by force, it’s something that was mutually agreed upon.

“Then now it’s a matter of money. How much does Leana want to hand over the guild to me?”

“Well… I haven’t thought about it that far yet. I’ll have to do the math from now on.”

Taking out various certificates and a small abacus from her bag, Leana immediately started counting her money.

“For the residual value of the building… For rent under the name of the guild leader… For household items… Uhm, the equipment is all worn out, so I just left it out…”

Leanna said after bouncing the abacus around.

“It’s 15,000 gold coins. I only put in the building and the rental in my name. The furniture and the like are so old that they are like garbage.”

Fifteen thousand gold coins are not bad.

City Hall Clemence said the cost of establishing a new guild was 50,000 gold coins.

With this level of money, I could live with a little bit of extra money just thinking about the gold coins I’ve collected during the hard work paid by the empire.

“That, Mr. Leonard. Didn’t you say that I can also participate in guild management?”

“I did.”

“Then I think I can do administrative work and pay a little less for rent instead of getting paid. Also, I’ve been living on this floor of the guild up until now. If it’s possible, I’d appreciate it if you could be considerate of that as well.”

There is no reason to reject Leana’s offer.

In the end, there is a difference between giving a lump sum or splitting it into small monthly payments.

Besides, Leah I am an experienced person who has been working in the guild for 10 years.

“That’s good for me. Let’s do that.”

That’s how Leana and I agreed to guild trading, in other words, to operate the ‘Officer’s Guild’ as an expedient.

I was able to buy a guild at a low price with just one devil’s head, so it’s a business that’s left over for me.

Of course, raising the guild again is a completely different matter, but with Leana’s help and the information in my head, it’s not difficult.

Now, until the resurrection of the great devil, the healing content begins.

“By the way, how old is Leanna?”

“She’s twenty-two this year?”

“Then can I speak casually? I’m older.”

“Yes? Well, do whatever you want. I’m just an employee anyway.”

“Then let’s do well together, guild leader.”

“Yes, chief. Something doesn’t match the title, but…”

* * * * *

I went to the Principality Bank branch in Schlesi and transferred 2,000 out of 12,000 gold coins to Leana’s account.

Originally, it was 15,000 pieces, but after deciding to receive the original salary, 3,000 pieces were removed.

The rest of the money will be divided into 2,000 pieces and steadily going to Leana.

Other than that, there was no separate procedure.

On the surface, Leana continues to be the guild leader, and I am the hired manager there.

In reality, Leana is the secretary and I am the guild leader, but nothing has changed on paper.

The name of the guild is, of course, the same as Lucas’s guild.

I broke up with Leana in front of the bank and headed straight to City Hall.

Now that she has a guild, she is in order to seek the first request of glory.

There were numerous posters and posters on the bulletin board in front of City Hall.

After looking through it carefully, I soon found a decent request.

‘Emergency. A request regarding the abnormal phenomenon of the Les Jovoire Reservoir. Schule City Hall.’

Emergency requests from government offices.

There’s no fear of losing money, and it’s perfect for a guild debut request.

I tore off the commissioned poster and entered the city hall.
