I'm at the lobby, at the receptionist counter— my gaze's calmly relaxed on Mira, the receptionist.
"So you really won't tell me how many more C-rank tasks I need to complete to become B rank?" I ask Mira with a low voice.
"No, Mr. Blank. I can't. It's against guild policy to tell you your rank up progress. You just.. wait until you recieve the message that you're B-rank." She speaks, her tone flat, and her eyes are calmly scanning me as her lips stretch wide into an uncanny grin.
Hmmm, I feel a sudden urge to raise a middle finger.
"I see. Have a good day, then." I speak as I turn to leave— toward the training grounds.
"Are you heading to the training grounds?" She asks, causing me to halt my movement.
"Yes. I think by now, everyone in the guild knows that's my spot." I reply curtly.
"Well yes, but, Mr Blank. Um.. I think.. I think you might need to find somewhere else to train." She stutters as she voices out.
And my brows arch, "why exactly?"
