Ch 219: What Kind Of Guild Leader Is This? No Prestige Or Fame Whatsoever

Bal, after returning home, told Phia about Archie and Annie.

“So you want me to help you find that Great Gryphon?”

“That’s right, help me, Dora Phia.”

Bal hugged Phia and squeezed her, Phia struggled greatly before escaping Bal’s embrace.

“Alright, I’ll help you.”

“My wife is the best.”

Bal was just about to kiss Phia, but Phia stopped him with her hand.

“There’s one more thing I’m concerned about, why are you helping Archie get the Great Gryphon an identity?”

“Because I saw a possibility.”

“What possibility?”

“The possibility of humans and monsters coexisting.”

Phia reached out and measured Bal’s forehead, after comparing it to her own temperature, Phia mumbled.

“You don’t have a fever, why are you talking nonsense?”

“What I mean is that humans can coexist with some monsters, we don’t have to be hostile to all monsters.”

“I’m sorry, Bal. I used to keep coyotes because I was bored, don’t misunderstand.”

Seeing that Phia still didn’t believe him, Bal had to tell the truth.

“Okay, it’s actually because I made an agreement with Philia to bring back a Great Gryphon egg, and after it hatches into a Large Griffon Cub, it will be a pet for Philia.”

“That makes sense. A moment ago you were talking about human and monster coexistence and the possibility of monsters, I thought you were possessed, and I was ready to start a physical exorcism.”

Phia showed the Magic Lance in her hand, Bal broke into a cold sweat upon seeing the lance. Because this thing’s upper limit is a bit too high.

“So we’ll go look tomorrow?”

Bal saw Phia dispel the lance, he immediately picked Phia up.

“Okay, tomorrow. Put me down first, I need to help Philia with her homework.”

“Alright.”

After Bal put Phia down, he kissed her and then let Phia go find Philia.

“Philia, Mommy is here to help you with your homework.”

“Ah, Mommy~”

Philia snuggled against Phia for a while, Phia watched her lovely daughter being so coquettish, and she understood Bal’s “daughter-slave” mentality.

“Philia, Mommy wants to ask you something.”

“What is it? Mommy.”

Philia tilted her head and looked at Phia.

“Daddy said he wanted to get you a Large Griffon Cub as a pet, what do you think about that?”

“Philia’s thoughts?”

Philia looked up at the ceiling, thinking, then looked at Phia.

“Philia doesn’t really care about the type of pet, Philia is just happy because it’s a gift from Daddy. After all, Daddy and Mommy are both very busy, they may not have time to always accompany Philia.”

Seeing her daughter so sensible, Phia hugged Philia.

“It’s really great to have such a sensible child like Philia.”

“Mommy…I can’t breathe…”

Philia was covered by Phia’s face, a feeling of suffocation immediately appeared, she tried to break free, but children are always no match for adults, if she hadn’t told Phia, she was afraid she would suffocate in Phia’s tender embrace.

Phia immediately let go when she heard Philia’s voice.

“Philia, are you okay?”

“Mommy…Philia just saw heaven…”

—

The next morning, Bal woke Phia up, after the two of them had breakfast, they went to the Self-Defense Force’s prison.

“Archie, do you remember which way Annie flew?”

“Um…I remember she flew north.”

“Okay, I’ll go find her, you wait for me.”

After saying that, Bal and Phia walked out of the prison. When they reached the Gate, Bal patted Xiao Hai’s shoulder.

“Stand guard well, I don’t blame you.”

After saying that, Bal and Phia left. After Bal said that to Xiao Hai, his heart, which had been pounding in his throat, calmed down a bit.

“Wait a minute, let’s go to Archie’s House first.”

Bal stopped Phia, who was about to teleport into the Dark Alley, and he took Phia to Archie’s House. In the backyard, Bal picked up some gryphon feathers and handed them to Phia.

“Can you detect the magic fluctuation of these feathers?”

“I’m not Grey, you’re deliberately making things difficult for me.”

“Um…you should be able to analyze the traces left on the feathers, right?”

“Yes, I’d say I’ve already analyzed them. The fur is glossy, indicating good nutrition, but the partial forking indicates that the feathers fell in a panic. Just find a pregnant Great Gryphon with similar feathers in the north, right?”

“That should be it, let me buy some grilled meat skewers, it’ll be easier to appease it.”

“Okay.”

After the two bought some grilled meat skewers, Phia used Teleportation Magic to teleport them to the northern forest.

“Can you detect the Great Gryphon’s presence?”

“Northwest corner and east side, there are magic reactions from Great Gryphons in both places.”

“Okay, let’s split up. You take some grilled meat skewers, don’t attack the Great Gryphon when you encounter it, to avoid accidental injury.”

“Got it.”

Phia took some grilled meat skewers and went to the Northwest, Bal carried the remaining grilled meat skewers and walked towards the East.

Along the way, Bal hopped on branches, although this could reduce the attraction of the grilled meat to monsters and beasts, there were still monsters with keen sense of smell who wanted to grab the food.

“Tsk, I don’t care about you guys, you’re getting too bold, huh?”

After saying that, Bal threw a few throwing knives, hitting the eyes of the attacking monsters, and then continued on his way. When he arrived at the Great Gryphon’s location, he saw a group of adventurers exterminating the Great Gryphon.

“Wait!”

Bal landed heavily in front of the adventurers, but he used too much force, and sprained his ankle when he landed.

“Ouch ouch ouch, it seems that I lack exercise.”

The adventurers were stunned in place when they saw Bal’s sudden arrival. Only the Healer among them saw Bal’s sprained ankle, and he went to Bal’s side.

“Um…are you okay?”

“No, I sprained my ankle.”

After quickly healing Bal, Bal looked at the Great Gryphon.

“Annie?”

“?”

Seeing the Great Gryphon’s puzzled expression, Bal took out the grilled meat skewers.

“Me and grilled meat, do you remember?”

The Great Gryphon roared, and a blade of air flew towards Bal. After Bal blocked the blade of air with his short sword, he said to the adventurers behind him.

“Don’t hurt it, I’m looking for a pregnant Great Gryphon.”

“Who are you?”

A young warrior looked unhappy, she questioned Bal.

“…I am the Guild Master of the Adventurer’s Guild.”

“You look like this and you’re the Guild Master? I might as well say I’m a Council Member of the Council Hall.”

“I’m not kidding, I really am the Guild Master.”

Bal blocked the Great Gryphon’s air blades while explaining to the warrior Miss.

At this time, the Thief Miss who seemed to be the leader came to her senses, she patted the warrior’s shoulder and whispered a few words, the warrior’s face looked a little wrong.

“Huh? He really is the Guild Master? I remember the current Guild Master is a very mysterious person, the kind of elusive expert, this person doesn’t look like it at all.”

“…”

Bal fell silent, sometimes hurting someone doesn’t require martial prowess, sharp words are also weapons that can hurt people.

“I should have shown my face a few more times.”

Bal muttered softly, then he jumped behind the Great Gryphon and knocked it unconscious with an elbow strike.

“…Now I kind of believe he’s the Guild Master.”

“Ah? Why?”

Bal checked the Great Gryphon while questioning.

“Because there aren’t many people in town who can subdue a Great Gryphon using only martial arts, those few are very famous adventurers, we all know them, but we have no impression of you at all, only heard that the current Guild Master has killed a Chimera and a Giant. A person with this kind of martial prowess who we haven’t seen before, it’s probably you.”

“Um…thank you for the compliment?”

The warrior Miss’s face changed when she thought that she had offended the current Guild Master of the Adventurer’s Guild.

“Wait, I seem to have offended the Guild Master just now, it’s over, won’t he revoke my adventurer status?”

After tying up the Great Gryphon, Bal turned around and said.

“Hey, am I that kind of petty person?”

“Who knows! I heard Anda say that the Guild Master will deduct wages for shirking responsibilities!”

“Wow, Anda actually said that about me, I wasted my affection on her.”

After checking the Great Gryphon, Bal confirmed that this wasn’t Annie, so he went to the adventurers.

“Sorry for interrupting you, this Great Gryphon isn’t the one I’m looking for, you continue.”

After saying that, Bal jumped onto a tree and disappeared in a flash. The adventurers who stayed behind looked at the Great Gryphon that was tied up on the ground and had fainted, and then looked at the direction Bal had left.

“What should we do?”

The warrior Miss was a little at a loss.

“The commission says to exterminate it.”

“Then there’s no way.”

The warrior Miss walked to the fainted Great Gryphon, she raised her axe and beheaded the Great Gryphon.

“I hope that Guild Master won’t deduct our bounty.”
