“As you’re no doubt aware, there is a certain amount that must be donated to the temple before its priests will perform miracle-based services on request. For a miracle as eminently virtuous as Sense Lie, even twenty silver coins wouldn’t cover it. Are you able to prepare such a sum?” The receptionist stared at me hard, waiting for my answer.

As mentioned, this was the same receptionist who had announced my expulsion from the guild. In other words, she knew I hadn’t even been able to scrounge up a single silver to raise my adventuring rank with. The intent of the guild here was crystal clear: they were determined to stop me in my tracks so that the Falcon Blades would come out smelling like roses.

“Wouldn’t the guild put up the fee in this case?” I said, narrowing my eyes.

“If the guild felt it was a necessary expense, then yes. But the suggestion was yours, so financing it would be your responsibility.”

“So even after all you’ve heard, the miracle doesn’t seem like a necessary measure to you?”

“With each party’s testimonies, we now have a clearer picture of what happened. But your claim that it was done with ill intent is suspect. You could be letting your past experiences twist your perception of events.”

“In other words, to you, it looks like I’m just trying to get revenge on them for kicking me out. But wouldn’t that make Sense Lie even more necessary? Then you’d be able to tell immediately whether I was telling the truth.”

“And I’m saying that for that to happen, you will need to pay the fee.”

I clicked my tongue. “Hey, scion of Sauzaar, you’re up. Open those coffers of yours and pay. I could ask Raz, but this is a prime opportunity for you to prove your innocence once and for all. You should be jumping at the chance.”

“She doesn’t need to do that,” Raz piped up. “I believe Miro. I don’t need to rely on a miracle to have faith in my friends.”

“As long as Raz believes me, that’s all I need. I couldn’t care less what a boor like you thinks.”

I sighed once more. “I see. Then I suppose I have no choice.”

The receptionist spoke up. “Can I take that to mean you’ll rescind your—”

“I’ll pay the fee.”

“Huh?” She looked dumbstruck.

I pulled a gold coin out of my pocket and set it on the table. Her mouth dropped open when she saw it. Since it was the first time I’d ever seen a reaction like that from her, my lips automatically curled up into a grin.

“Earlier, you said even twenty silver coins wouldn’t cover it. So how much are we talking, exactly? Would a gold coin not be enough?”

“Er...”

“Well then, what about two gold coins? Or three? Or if even that’s not enough, look, here’s a fourth. You’re not about to tell me four gold coins won’t cover it, right?” Humming to myself, I stacked the coins on top of one another.

By now, Raz’s and the others’ jaws were also on the floor.
