"Give me a minute," William was ignoring her on purpose. He knew he had no time to confine her in the guild, and he couldn't just drag her around when there was too much on stake. The only way was to let her stick around on her own, and he just found the right way to do it, arousing her curiosity!
As long as he didn't satisfy her questions, she would never stop pestering him and would stick around. That was why he kept ignoring her while working on processing the materials.
"You are ignoring me on purpose…"
"Why don't you make yourself useful?" when she was about to lose her patience, William interrupted her, "go and bring those bombs over."
"You are kidding, right?"
"Just do something and help me if you want to know everything," William simply shrugged, without even sparing a glance over her for once.
