A Highest Rank in Another World!

After I allowed us in, I walked into the room along with Rose. As soon as I entered, I noticed that things were still the same as years ago, the only thing that changed was the master\'s appearance.

"Did you get old a lot," I said as I gave him a sardonic smile.

"And you also got old, you\'re already a mother of a family." The master also smiled sarcastically at me.

"Do you think I would take that as an offense? This is my greatest pride, I had two wonderful children." I felt very pleased to have been able to give life to two such beautiful and talented children.

But I won\'t say that in front of them, I would feel very embarrassed.

"I never thought I\'d see you act like that, you\'ve changed a lot." The master stroked his beard and looked me up and down assessing me.

"Are you harassing me again? If my husband finds out, you\'re dead." I put a hand in front of my breasts. But of course, I was just playing with him, I haven\'t seen him for a long time and I want to take advantage of this situation.

"I\'m not interested in kids like you. Besides, my wife is much prettier than you." The guild master got up and then went to one of his shelves.

Then he pulled out a paper on which an image of a woman was stamped.

She was a yellow-haired woman with large yellow eyes. The more I looked at her, the more in awe I became.

"This is my wife, isn\'t she beautiful?"

"Your wife? How much did you pay to kidnap her?"

"Hey, you\'re going too far. This is an image of my wife from when she was young, I was very handsome too, you know?"

"I very much doubt that. But now let\'s leave these trivial matters aside, I came here to ask you something. Come on Rose, you talk to him."

"You say you\'re going to ask for something and then throw the responsibility at me? Aren\'t you ashamed?"

"Not."

"Haaa~~ Alright." Rose sighed and gave up trying to argue, then spoke to the guild master about the carriage she needed. She also said that we were going to travel to my village.

And that the group even had many people.

Of course, when it was my turn to speak, I told the guild master about the attack that might take place on the capital. When I talked about it, his eyebrows went up, he looked quite surprised.

But he doesn\'t seem to have doubted my words.

"So you guys need a carriage... I think I can get you one, but I need something in return."

"Of course, as long as you don\'t ask me to venture back or that I\'m your wife I\'ll accept anything."

"I wouldn\'t ask you to come back, and I also said I have no interest in you."

"So what is it?"

"I want you to take my daughter with you. If you\'re right, the capital will be attacked in a few days, so I want you to get her out of here too." The guild master looked serious about it.

Rose beside me looked shocked at the guild master\'s sudden request.

"What is it, Rose? Didn\'t I tell you I had a daughter?" The guild master smiled at Rose. So that\'s why she\'s in shock.

"No, you never told me you had a daughter, since when?"

"Since when? It\'s been a long time since she was born, hahaha. But you\'re very good friends with her, aren\'t you?" At the guild master\'s words, Rose looked shocked again. The guild master\'s daughter was her friend all this time.

Rose thought for a while longer.

"Don\'t tell me your daughter is Rieli?"

"What do you think?" The master smiled.

"You must be kidding me. The girl who always does what I ask is the guild master\'s daughter." Rose\'s face went pale, she didn\'t know how to react in this situation. But I was also surprised.

When I ventured out years ago, the guild master didn\'t have a daughter, since when did that happen?

Did he manage to have a daughter even though he was so old?

"But that\'s not what you guys are thinking. I and my wife didn\'t give Rieli life, we also knew her not that long ago." The guild master closed his eyes and looked up.

He seemed to be thinking about some sad things.

"So she\'s adopted?"

"That\'s right, but I think it\'s better not to talk too much about it with you guys." The master looked sad and dejected, so I chose not to say anymore. But the guild master\'s request was very simple, so we decided to accept.

"Rose, you\'re still shocked, you don\'t have to be like this." I poked her cheek to try to bring her back to reality.

"All this time Rieli was the guild master\'s daughter…" She was still trying to process all this information, so I left her alone.

"All right, master. Where is your daughter? Is there no one to come with her? Maybe your wife can come too."

"No need, my wife isn\'t in the capital at the moment, Rieli is home alone, I\'ll take you there. And about the carriage, let\'s go to my house and I\'ll give it to you."

"So you have a carriage."

"Yes, I also take my trips. I can\'t depend on someone to take a trip whenever I want, can I?"

"You\'re right."

"Now come on, let me just put a few things away. You can wait for me downstairs if you want." The guild master walked over to her desk and started putting away some documents.

Then I picked up Rose and dragged her out of the room, she seems to be recovering.

####

We went down to the first floor and waited a few more minutes.

"So, let\'s go there?" The master said as he walked down the stairs.

"Of course, I hope your daughter is a good person."

"Don\'t worry about it, she\'s an angel."

"Urg, I hope you\'re not the overprotective parent type."

"If I were, I wouldn\'t be sending her to your village."

"What did you say?"

"Nothing, come on." Completely ignoring me, the guild master left and began walking through the empty streets of the capital. He was going directly to the noble district of the capital that was close to the castle.

Well, even though he\'s a bit of an irritant, he\'s still a nobleman and I knew that.

\'But I\'ve never visited your house.\' From what he\'d told me in the past, he was a low-ranking noble, so he probably didn\'t have that much respect within the nobility.

We walked for a while and arrived in the upscale neighborhood. It was equally empty. The only difference was that wherever I looked, I only saw luxurious mansions with guards protecting them.

\'These guards shouldn\'t be protecting a mansion inside the capital, but being used in the war.\' I thought as I followed behind the guild master.

Rose who was beside me looked uneasy.

"It\'s all right?" I asked curiously.

"Yeah, it\'s just that I\'ve never been to the upscale neighborhood before so I\'m a little nervous."

"WHICH? EVEN LIVING HERE FOR SO MANY YEARS HAVE YOU NEVER VISITED THE NOBLE NEIGHBORHOOD?!" I couldn\'t believe what I was hearing. Didn\'t this girl leave home, didn\'t she venture out?

Hasn\'t she had a life of her own all these years?

"How can I say, I was afraid to attract the attention of nobles, you know how it works."

"I see, I was afraid of that too, thank goodness none of them ever dared to lay a finger on me. And if it\'s up to me, they won\'t lay a finger on my daughter either."

"Hahaha... I see."

I wouldn\'t want our family to get involved with the nobles, it would just give me a headache.

I kept walking behind the guild master, but I was distracted, so when that old man suddenly stopped in front of me, I even got a little scared.

"Don\'t stop suddenly, old man," I exclaimed as I walked to his side.

"We\'ve arrived." He turned to his right side and started looking at a large mansion. No, compared to the others around here, it could be considered a small mansion.

It was still two stories high, but its size could be compared to my house in the village. The only thing that changed was the building material and also the decorations around the garden which seemed to be very expensive.

Speaking of which, his garden looked bigger than his own house. But I couldn\'t deny it, it was very beautiful.

"You have a nice house grandpa," I said as I watched him open the front gate of the mansion.

"True, you\'ve never visited me before, but I\'ve lived here for years."

"I see, you do a good job keeping this garden so beautiful."

"Ahahaha. When I used to live here it wasn\'t so well taken care of, but since Rieli arrived, she has taken good care of it."

"Um, don\'t you have a gardener or something?"

"No, I only have two maids in my mansion. It\'s not a very big mansion, so I don\'t need to overdo it, right? Now come in, make yourself comfortable."

With the gate open, we were invited to enter.. Rose looked very nervous so I took her hand to try to calm her down and walked in with her.
