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

26 – Tower Owner Dreaming of Beyond (2)

The lunch wasn’t bad.

It seems that the last time I told you to season the food.

Still, I can’t help but feel it.

At times like this, if you eat kimchi with ramen, uh…. Drool back

“Hmmm…”

As I was licking my lips by myself, Celestine covered her mouth and cleared her throat discreetly.

“Why?”

“No… it’s nothing.”

What are you talking about?

I asked Leana sneakily as I carried the dishes to the kitchen to wash the dishes.

“Leana. Isn’t it hard to do kitchen work together?”

“It’s hard. But it’s okay. Sending two people out is the way to make more money than me.”

Leah I don’t, but she has a ton of work to do.

Compared to me and Celestine, I spend a lot of time in the guild, so the only thing I do is cook.

He’s not even a full-time cook, he’s the guild leader.

Would you rather me and Celestine take turns?

No no, there’s no way Celestine has ever done anything like cooking.

Then, if I’m alone and I cook while staying in the guild, who will do the commissioning?

Should I rather hire a guild servant?

I do a lot of errands, clean and do laundry, and cook.

I think having one servant would make things easier for all three of us.

“Hey, Leana.”

“Why?”

“Are they our servants?”

“I don’t like it.”

“Why?”

“We have to save money to pay the servants’ salaries.”

“That’s right. It would be perfect if I could get it from somewhere for free.”

“hahahaha. Where in the world is such a crazy person?”

Leah I walked into her kitchen shaking her head like I was crazy.

Hmm, it’s not like slaves are the only ones who hire people for free.

“Should I make a slave…”

As she muttered as she wiped the table, Celestine, who was tidying up the chairs, opened her eyes wide and started to hiccup.

“What, what did you say?!”

“Huh? No, I was just talking to myself. Never mind.”

“Ah, yes…”

Her speechless, Celestine ran upstairs to this floor.

Why is that again?

* * * * *

Celestine hurried into her room, closed the door behind her, and leaned against her.

What the hell is this?

I never thought the secretary would have such feelings for me.

A while ago, at the end of the meal, you looked at me and licked your lips, and now you want to make me a slave?

Could it be that the reason I joined the guild was to make me a s*x slave?

Haa, is that why the guild leader brought condoms for you?

Are you afraid that the secretary might attack me?

It’s a big deal, this is really….

Celestine fell into her troubles as she hugged her chest in her uneasy mind.

Should she run away now….

But where are you going to run away?

I am now officially dead to the devil.

And the sect is registered as a death row inmate.

Even if you run away like this, you will eventually have no choice but to hide in the shadows, but if that happens, you will end up with bad things like human trafficking, like the manager said last time.

So you have to stay here after all.

If you’re going to suffer something like that anyway, it’s better to be treated by a kind and friendly manager….

“Hey Celestine!”

“Hey!?”

Celestine was startled by Leonard’s voice outside, and she flinched.

“Come down! Let’s train!”

“Oh yes! Go now!”

Celestine got down on her knees beside her bed and pulled out her bag to check her condoms.

One, two, three, four, five….

I tore off one of them and stuffed it deep into my pants pocket.

Calm down, Celestine…. Keep calm….

“Come down quickly!”

“Yes!!”

* * * * *

Celestine and I went out to the clearing behind the guild.

There is an outdoor bathroom, a storage shed, and a scarecrow.

The scarecrow is made of a thick log and is full of knife marks and spear marks, as if it had been trained here before.

“Okay, we’ll do it here.”

“What are you doing?”

“Become a battle healer. That’s why, use your holy power to destroy that scarecrow.”

“A scarecrow? With holy power? Mmm…”

Celestine pursed her lips as if she didn’t understand and shook her head.

“The Secretary-General said, so I’ll try it…But I can’t use divine power like that…”

“No. You can do it. Just do as I tell you.”

I explained a few things to Celestine.

All of these are from tips posted on the game’s official community, and they were proven by uploading gifs.

In short, it is to use a shield like a shield.

Since it’s a shield, of course it must be a shield.

But it’s not an ordinary shield, it’s a combat policeman’s shield.

In other words, it’s like cutting them off with the blade of the shield.

Seeing last time Celestine knocked over her horses by only creating half a shield, I’m pretty sure I can pull it off.

“Ehh… So… Make a barrier from the top… And cut off the holy power when it spreads to the desired angle…?”

“Yes. It’s the same as throwing a spear. The holy power is the hand, and the shield is the spear. If you cut off the holy power while the shield is rapidly spreading, the shield will fly away in the same direction it spread, right?”

“Ummm…Well…”

Celestine just nodded with an expression of disapproval.

I explained it again because I was determined to some extent.

So if you do this like that and that like that, voila.

“Ah, yes…”

Celestine scratched her head with an awkward smile.

Sup, this is difficult.

“Then let’s do it like this. Didn’t you make a shield the other day? Try making that one again.”

“Okay.”

As Celestine dyed her hands golden, a circular shield erupted from the ground around us.

Let’s turn off the holy power at the right time, and the shield stops just at the height of our waist.

Originally, they would continue to climb up and meet each other at the apex of the air, completing a semicircular shield.

“Okay. Then we can speed up the rate at which the shield rises from the ground, right?”

“I’ll try.”

When Celestine, who removed the previous shield, fired up her holy power again, the shield sprouted at a much faster rate than before.

“You did a good job. As expected, you understand the language well.”

I just said it for encouragement, but Celestine gave a bashful laugh as her face blushed instantly.

“Currently, isn’t it a circular shield that can defend from all sides? A rectangular shield that protects the front instead of a circular one is also possible, right?”

“I can do that.”

Celestine immediately created a square shield in front of us.

“Okay. Narrow that down a bit. About a third the width.”

Celestine followed my instructions and narrowed the barrier.

The shield now has a vertically long rectangular shape with a shorter base than the left and right sides.

“This time try to make that shield rise from under the scarecrow. Very fast. As fast as you can.”

“Yes…!”

After receiving compliments several times, Celestine’s momentum rose and her hands shone brightly with determined eyes.

Choo!!

“Ehh?!”

Celestine backed away in panic as the shield rising from the floor split the scarecrow in half.

“Uhhhhh.

“Very good.”

“What?! What happened!?”

“Use the cross section of the shield like a knife.”

“Even the sects never told me about this. How does the secretary know?!”

“There are a lot of things I see and hear here and there while working as a demon hunter.”

Just skip it like that.

“Practice this. Do it a hundred times, okay?”

“Ah, yes…! Got it…!”

I left Celestine alone and went back to the guild building.

Leanna, sitting at her reception desk writing something, raised her head.

“What about Celestine?”

“I’m practicing the shield behind me. It’s dangerous, so don’t go there. And let me know if you have a request to handle.”

“Here it is. Start with the shortest deadlines.”

“Then I’ll be back.”

* * * * *

I returned to the guild around the time the sun had completely set and the stars poked out their heads.

She investigates the cases suspected of being demonic, and with a blind gaze and the stigma of a hound, she reveals that they are simply the work of a brown bear.

However, the fact that the brown bear came down to the private house was a serious matter, so in the end, I was able to finish the request only after I tracked down the traces of the bear and killed it.

“I’m here.”

“You worked hard!”

Leana ran out of the kitchen to greet me.

“What about Celestine?”

“I’m still at the training ground. Shall I call you?”

“No, I’ll go.”

When I opened the back door and went out, Celestine was flashing golden holy power in a row in the dark clearing.

Chack! Chow!

A narrow and sharp divine shield rose from the floor with bloody momentum.

Okay. That’s enough.

I don’t know if I can use it against people yet, but at least I’ve learned the tricks.

“Celestine!”

“Uh, chief.”

Drenched in sweat, Celestine turned to me and smiled.

As I got closer, the smell of perfume filled the air.

“When did you come?”

“I just came. You’re amazing? You’ve mastered this already?”

“hehehe…”

Celestine smiled briskly, wiping the sweat from her chin.

“The secretary informed me well…”

“You did a great job. You are the best. Now I can take you anywhere without any worries.”

“Ah, if you say that…”

Celestine twisted her body, dyeing her face red.

“hehehehe…”

The halo above her head flickering like a neon sign must have made her feel quite happy to be praised.

That’s surprisingly weak for compliments.

“Let’s go in and eat.”

“Yes…”

Hmm, the smell of perfume.

Even after entering the guild headquarters, Celestine had a big smile on her face, so she had to listen to Leanna say something.

“It’s easy for men to see a kid like you when he looks so defenseless!”

“Hey, I see…”

“Why is he like that?”

“I don’t know, neither do I.”
