“I’ll go ask them right away!”

“D-Dahlia!” Marcella chased after the fleeing chairwoman.

Bernigi was left wide eyed and flabbergasted, Jonas rubbed his brow, and Lucia simply nodded.

Idaea looked toward the opened door with reverence. “To be able to run to them for a favor like that—that is very brave of her. Ms. Dahlia is a very admirable chairwoman.”

Admirable? Was that really the appropriate adjective for her foolhardiness? It was only that Dahlia currently had an extremely narrow ken. As her close friend, Lucia was certain about one thing. “That’s not her as a chairwoman—that’s Dahlia the hopeless magical toolmaker.”

As soon as the servant answered the door, Dahlia burst into the parlor. “I have a favor to ask of everyone here. I hope you can lend me your strength!”

The men had just finished their discussions and were about to disband, but they all leapt to their feet at the appearance of the out-of-breath, overwhelmingly urgent chairwoman. “Of course, Madam Rossetti. In Volf’s absence, I am at your service.”

“I shall do whatever I can as the master of the Merchants’ Guild.”

“The Adventurers’ Guild is also at your disposal.”

“Miss Dahlia, the Tailors’ Guild may have little power, but I shall wield it to its full extent for you.” Continuing after Guido, each of the men agreed on behalf of his guild. She was already very accomplished and had helped everyone here. Perhaps it could be said that Chairwoman Rossetti brought great profit to everyone. None of them could possibly refuse her imploration.

“Did something happen, Chairwoman?!”

“What is it that you wish to ask of us?” Ivano and Guido asked at the same time.

“Please enchant the slime for me!”

“Enchant the slime...?” Muttering voices overlapped.

Other than Ivano, the men here were all viscounts or even greater in rank. Those with great magical ability received mandatory education in controlling it during primary school. There were lectures in magical arts in college too, where students got practical training on how to enchant things like metals and small items. Depending on the person, they may wield magic for combat or self-defense. However, not once had the lesson plans included enchanting slimes—powdered or otherwise; the thought had never even come to mind, to be honest. Everyone had confused looks on their faces—everyone except for Ivano, who pressed his palm against his forehead.

“I am practiced in offensive magic, but enchanting slimes? What would that entail?”

“Would that be possible for someone like me who has no experience crafting magical tools?” The hesitant questions came from Augusto and Forto.

“It is—we will begin by teaching you how to do it. Does that sound about correct, Master Dahlia?”

“Yes...” Seeing all the bewildered faces in the room and Guido’s curious smile, Dahlia felt sweat bead up on her brow. She had finally realized the consequences of her actions—all too late, however.

“I do not go back on my word; I shall lend a hand.” Leone decisively volunteered his help, perhaps in consideration for the company as the Merchants’ guildmaster. Whatever the reason, it was very much appreciated.

“Thank you very much.
