Description

A Tumultuous Battle of Words Light is sent to bed. Lena takes Ayla shopping. With Appraisal Ayla spots a diamond being sold by a shady merchant unaware of its true value, so Lena buys it for her and turns it into a necklace. Light resents being confined to bed but Sleep Pixie monitors him. Lena reports to the guild council, made up of the Heads of the Four Bureaus. Flower Hat, head of Investigations, Tiger Beard, head of Security, Grave Keeper, head of Finance, and Holy Sister, head of Inspections. Lena notices Holy Sister dodges questions about Dratena. Since the dragon disappeared without a trace Lena offers one of its scales for a tracking spell if they provide information. Flower Hat confirms Dratena received her Necromancy skill during a ceremony overseen by Holy Sister. Holy Sister points out she has granted skills to 10,000 children since then and cannot remember Dratena specifically. She also disbands Luxeria, claiming Grouse submitted a complaint against Light. Light appears at that moment, having escaped Sleep Pixie. Holy Sister appraises him and decides to leave Luxeria alone, but she does demand they atone for assaulting Grouse by killing an S rank monster. Ayla is confused to find that her Appraisal Skill does not work on Holy Sister. Light learns that having broken two swords loaned to him by the guild he must pay a fine of 5000 gold. Light decides to have a new sword forged by a blacksmith. As this will take several days Lena leaves to continue investigating Dratena.
