"Huh? What does he want now?" I groaned, feeling annoyed.
"Er, well...it is regarding your last report on Platinberg, it reached the king a little while ago, and he wants to talk to you about it," Replied Erhtaph with a sigh.
He'd just called me a minute ago, and now I'm in a bad mood. Today was the 15th of March, a day after the new Adventurer ranks were introduced. Give me a break, it's only been a couple of weeks since I woke up from a coma...I mean, yeah, I feel fine and all, but still!
"Don't suppose this is optional?" I inquired hopefully.
"No, of course not, you should know that. Please be at the castle within the hour, alright?" He implored me in a tired-sounding voice.
"Fine...but this time, if he pisses me off, I won't bite my tongue."
"Er...could you at least try to?"
