"Thank you. Now, can we continue with the registration?"
"Of course, follow me, Champion-sama."
Pointing to a specific door, Eina smiled. Yuki, on the other hand, complied, taking Inori and Est with him.
"Ehhh... Champion-sama, can we come?"
[Bitch!]
Putting a finger to her lips, Tiona's eyes welled up, like a child abandoned by its mother. Mana, understandably, didn't like how bold this woman was.
"Hm~ Why not? Let's go together."
Yuki, unfazed, didn't mind.
"Hehehe... Let's go, Ais, Lefiya!"
Taking both girls by the arms, Tiona wasted no time. Ais, in particular, was grateful for this Amazon, as unlike her, who couldn't communicate, Tiona was adept at it, allowing her to be closer to this person.
Even Lefiya praised how Tiona could insert herself into conversations without being intrusive.
------------
"Champion-sama, your familia is Hestia familia, correct?"
Taking notes, Eina looked at the group in front of her. Though surprised to see Ais, Tiona, and Lefiya here, she decided to ignore them. This was a private room, and if Yuki allowed them to be here, she wouldn't question it.
"Yes, that's correct."
Yuki wasn't concerned. He was now sipping tea beneath his mask. However, it was challenging because both Inori and Est continued pouring tea. Before they could taste it, both girls were left disappointed.
"All right, next question... What level is Champion-sama currently?"
Listening to Eina's words, Tiona, Ais, and Lefiya fell silent. After all, Yuki's level was crucial to them. Someone who could defeat Ais in a second had to be very strong. Ais even suspected he might be level 9.
"Level 1, and my companion here is also level 1."
Pointing at Inori, Yuki didn't mind revealing his level. In this world, level didn't determine strength for him. Even without Falna, Yuki could defeat them easily.
"Wha...!"
However, Ais, Tiona, and Lefiya were astonished, shaking their heads, thinking they misheard.
"I see... Champion-sama is still a novice."
Smiling rigidly, Eina didn't know what to think. Someone of his caliber being level 1 was unthinkable.
"Eh! I'm a complete novice when it comes to being an adventurer."
Raising both arms, Yuki didn't lie. It was his first adventure. In Konoha, he was a killing machine, devouring ninjas left and right.
"Champion-sama... You must be joking, right? You're very strong... You can't be level 1!"
Tiona, without reservation, questioned. Ais was also curious why someone at level 1 could defeat her.
"Our strength doesn't come from Falna. That's why our level is disproportionate to our true strength. For example, Inori here is level 1 like me, but she's as strong as any of you."
Yuki wasn't lying. Inori had undergone an amazing transformation. While her physical quality might be below a level 5 adventurer, her attack power was comparable. Not to mention her Genomic Resonance, which could cover the planet if she wished.
However, his words shocked the present people. It was the first time they saw someone not relying on Falna. Even in the past, people not relying on God's blessing still made contracts with spirits to fight monsters.
"Ugh! Even though I don't understand... It's really cool."
Shaking her head in pain, Tiona smiled bitterly.
"I understand... Next is an advisor who will be assigned to Champion-sama."
Although Eina was surprised, she continued with the registration, ignoring Tiona.
"I've heard about it, an advisor to help with my missions and exploration, right? If it's not too much trouble, would you mind being our advisor, Miss Eina?"
"Eh?! Me?! No, no, no... I mean, there are many more experienced people in the guild, Champion-sama."
Waving her hands, Eina didn't want to be involved in this chaos. She had enough dealing with the Goddesses this morning. She didn't want her life to be harassed because of the Champion.
"Is that so? But I want you to be in charge of my familia, Miss Eina... Is it possible that you're not pleased?"
With teary eyes, Yuki used the same attack Tiona used on him. After all, Yuki knew about her. He had selected each candidate in this Guild to be his advisor, and Eina came out on top. Many things influenced his decision, but what mattered most was her serious and hardworking character, as well as the passion she had for her work.
(No, I didn't choose her because she's the prettiest in this guild. No, that had nothing to do with it.)
Convincing himself, Yuki nodded, satisfied. However, Mana only noted Eina's name on her imaginary list under 'Special Care.'
"Uh, it's not that I'm not pleased... it's just."
Swallowing saliva, Eina looked at Tiona and Ais, seeking support. If Yuki insisted, she knew her boss would be more than happy to leave this problem in her hands, and she would have no choice but to accept it.
"It's a good idea! Eina-san, you're perfect for this."
"Hm, I think so too."
"I... I agree too."
However, her hopes were shattered, as Tiona, Ais, and Lefiya supported Yuki. After all, Eina was popular in this guild.
"That settles it. I'll be counting on your support from now on, Miss Eina."
Raising his hand, Yuki smiled beneath his mask. Having this beauty as an advisor was a delight for his eyes.
"Yes, Champion-sama."
Watching her hope fade away, Eina's eyes lost their light, and even her glasses slid down a bit. But like a professional, she shook Yuki's hand.
"Now that Miss Eina will be our advisor, there's no need for reservations. You can call me Yuki..."
"I don't think it's appropriate..."
"Please... Think about it."
Looking at the small person in front of her, Eina sighed. Her headaches were about to begin, and calling him by his name would cause a great stir in the guild. Even Tiona didn't dare to call him by his name.
However, for Yuki, the title only brought him trouble, so he hoped to get rid of it.
"All right, it's time to go. I look forward to working with you."
Thinking about the many things Yuki could do with his advisor, he licked his lips. After all, he hoped to experience a real adventure in this world.
"The same... I wish you good luck in the dungeon, Champion-sama."
Bowing slightly, Eina had a dead look in her eyes, while Yuki just smiled, taking Est and Inori in his shadow.
"Wait, Champion-sama! Are you going into the dungeon?"
But before he could enter completely, Tiona stopped him.
"Well, that's the plan."
"Can we accompany you?! We know the dungeon well! Rest assured, we make excellent guides!"
Proudly puffing out her nonexistent chest, Tiona's eyes sparkled, while Ais clenched her fists.
