The matter between the elder of the Mercenary Guild and the female knight thus came to an end.
Such a thing was unsurprising, almost entirely within expectations.
Next, this female knight would act according to her own thoughts and understanding.
But for the elder, what could he rely on to know exactly how much the female knight from the family knew?
He had no way, no ability to prevent the situation from worsening.
These were all things the elder could not understand. More importantly, he knew very well he had no right to command or control these knights.
These were, in fact, knights loyal to the family.
In other words, as part of a violent organization, they must, and can only, serve their family with their lives.
Otherwise, all their actions could be seen as betrayal.
A power that is controlled is a useful tool, but uncontrolled, it could harm oneself and others. Even noble knights, without loyalty, are no different from bandits.
