I didn't wait for the Guild Master to answer.
I closed the call and took a deep breath, putting my phone into my pocket and pressing my lips together. The Guild Master was probably not very happy with my decision. After everything that he had done for me, I probably looked extremely ungrateful.
Perhaps he was going to give up on me and stop helping me.
Even worse, there was also a chance that he'd stop investigating the Dock situation for me.
But...
'No, I don't think he's that type of guy.'
He was disappointed, yes.
But I had yet to fail.
I was still useful to him.
Until I failed, I could act like this.
But the moment I failed...
I drew a deep breath, looking ahead.
"Squad Leader! Hurry! We're going to miss the train!"
"...Why are you so back?"
Adjusting the straps of my backpack, I calmly resumed walking.
'This is going to be a very long week.'
