Chapter 72 - Wedding Ceremony Part 1!
"This concludes the announcements."
Shikibu conveyed the messages from the guild headquarters and the lord to the guild members.
The communication from the headquarters was a warning about the appearance of the "Goblin Lord" and the "Orc Lord."
What caught their attention was that before the communication from the headquarters, there was information about adventurers being targeted in this town. They were advised to be cautious, and there was a request for information.
Although there were no fatalities, those who woke up in secluded places found their "MP" almost completely drained.
Since no valuables were taken, Shikibu speculated that it might be the work of "demonkind."
Losing only "MP" would severely disrupt the balance with "HP," causing a minor reduction in "HP."
He remembered hearing that even during battles, one needed to be cautious.
"Any other announcements or updates?"
"Can I have a moment?"
I raised my hand.
"There's something quite troubling. It's a complicated matter that only Guildmaster and Murasaki can resolve."
"...If Tact is saying so, it must be significant. What is it?"
"It's a delicate issue. I'll discuss it with Murasaki here, but for Guildmaster, please have them hear it from Iria first."
"Indeed. While Tact-sama consulted me in advance, I believe Guildmaster might not have a favorable impression if asked by a man. Could you come to our waiting room for now?"
Iria adjusted her response to fit my narration.
Shikibu seemed to agree and vanished with Iria and the receptionists into the reception area.
After confirming the closing sound of the waiting room door:
"Murasaki, could you please take off all your armor for now?"
"Huh? Why? Is it related to the issue?"
"It's highly relevant. First, show off those well-trained muscles."
"If you say so."
Proudly, she stripped down to her underwear, showing off her muscles.
Very compliant.
"Toguru, please make the arrangements."
Toguru began setting up with a few adventurers, preparing the venue.
To be precise, they just moved tables against the walls and laid out a red carpet.
"Next, could you put this on? I'll show you how to wear it."
I handed Murasaki a tuxedo-like outfit.
"Huh? What's this? I've never seen this kind of clothing before!"
"That's right, actually, I want to know its abilities, but there's no one confident about their muscles except for you, Murasaki."
"I see, well, it's true that not many have muscles like mine! Alright then."
Really easy to handle.
Maybe I'll catch her in a scam someday...
A white dress shirt, bow tie, and black tuxedo.
The size is perfect.
She looks like the groom at first glance.
Kuro's work is impeccable!
The guild members are teasing the unfamiliar-looking Murasaki.
While Murasaki is being teased, he can't counterattack as he wants since I'm asking about comfort and checking his mobility.
"Master, preparations are complete here. Shikibu-san, you look very beautiful."
A message from Shiro came.
"Understood!"
I moved Murasaki to his designated spot and said, "Stay like this for a moment," to him.
