“There’s no matching her as long as she throws her reputation as a former member of the party of heroes around.”

After the meeting, Lord Gholn had returned to his residence to drink with the other nobles who’d also attended.

His clap summoned a graceful teenage servant who brought more liquor and platters of food.

“If we could just oust Tallow, we could do as we please, but at this rate…” He shook his head.

The original four directors had died long ago, and their positions passed down to the heads of their noble houses throughout the generations. After becoming his family’s latest director, Lord Gholn realized that his house benefited greatly thanks to the Adventurers Guild.

That stopped when Tallow took over as guild master and realized there was money being held up that should go to adventurers instead.

“I have heard that Lady Serafin was the main social influence in the party of heroes. She must be quite experienced with these types of negotiations,” Lord Gholn said, causing his peers to huff. None of them were pleased.

“I don’t enjoy losing arguments…”

Two others nodded in agreement.

These nobles simply concerned themselves with saving face, and their thoughts only went as far as their coffers. In a way, their minds were incredibly easy to understand.

“His Majesty has kept his hands too clean.”

They were already getting into their regular complaints. Their greed knew no bounds.

“He left governing the land to the aristocracy, so he ought to trust us more…”

“And we pay his taxes. He should leave us be,” Lord Gholn added, and the others agreed immediately.

“Is Tallow proving difficult to handle?” one of the nobles asked.

Lord Gholn recognized immediately that they meant assassination, and he bobbed his head.

“Yes. It’s been difficult. How shall I put this…? He has senses like a wild animal, and my men simply haven’t been able to carry out the act…”

“Don’t you have any better talent?”

“If we act too conspicuously, we’ll become a target of His Majesty’s political purge. I think we should move with due prudence.”

The other aristocrats had come to rely on Lord Gholn after learning he maintained ties to the criminal underworld.

“The last thing we want is for someone to make a blunder and the rest of us to pay the price for it,” one man said.

“It’s exactly as you say.”

Tallow was a challenging opponent to deal with, but Lord Gholn thought it’d be easier if he were still active.

He’d washed his hands of such things, however. So all he could do was lament his subordinates’ gutlessness.

“What about that woman? She didn’t fight at the front lines like Lady Almelia did.”

Lord Gholn’s fresh proposal drew all eyes to him. They all gave their thoughts.

“She shouldn’t have much skill in combat.”

“Without her around, ousting Tallow will be a matter of time.”

“In combat, she hardly seems to stack up to the other members of her old party.”

Lord Gholn let out a small, nearly imperceptible sigh.

These people were only good at using others and protecting themselves.

Lord Gholn, on the other hand, sought to continue enjoying his easy life.
