"Can you sponsor me?"
As did the other representatives, Ilya's eyebrows rose in surprise at these unexpected words; he couldn't believe that a mere newcomer would be so bold.
Ilya's expression returned to normal, and she said, with an amused smile, "Do you want me or my Luminis guild to sponsor you?"
Kleint, who hadn't expected that question, didn't quite know what to answer; after eight seconds, they replied: "The guild."
Ilya assisted with a small smile; before she could say anything, Kleint spoke again:
"But, before I go into more detail, I have to listen to the offers of the others present," he said with a small smile. As he had already accomplished his goal, he was not as nervous as a few moments ago.
Ilya attended with a smile, leaning back in her seat without saying a word, waiting for others to speak.
