Chapter 12:
Wound after wound I ended up as a Guild Receptionist
The two went back to the dining room, chatting for a while. Then, time came for Tebonai to depart, yet he did not want to leave before making sure Kaede understood his condition:
"Caedith, listen... Even a kid could tell you move like your whole body is in agonizing pain. You should seriously start treating yourself before doing any more adventuring."
"I know, but I need to reach the D-Rank as soon as possible to get access to the guild's archives. I'll have to endure, somehow."
"No, you don't get it. I think you probably lost three stages of your body refinement since the day Vosphel ampuated your arm, your pelvis has definitely been crushed and it's healing awfully, your knees are strained and they shake a lot, your shoulders are also strained like you have been flexing your muscles the whole time. Next encounter with anything stronger than a Soft Boned Bunny is going to be your last."
"But I need the guild's resources. I have no choice."
"If you just need to access the archives then you should probably just take the test to become a receptionist. It's quicker and safer than ranking, I think."
