The conversation became a heated battle, with the rest of the mercenary group appearing beside the man. There were four of them, with the remaining five missing in action. I suspect that most of them waited outside this guild. Or they did not want to show up at all.
But that did not matter right now, since a battle may appear soon. And that fight included us on the line. We had no choice but to clash our fists against each other, despite all these people watching around us.
However, before any of us could land a hit, Galehaut interfered between us with a magic barrier. Although the protective spell had a mediocre arcane, it was still enough to block our physical attacks.
