The guild master recounted the beginning of the existence of a statue standing in front of the guild.
"after I gave the report to the center, they suddenly gave the guild a huge budget. As well as a warrant to pay the highest respect to you. As an adventurer who defeated the Phoenix.
And of course another figure that we keep secret his identity. That's why I did the renovation on the guild building and built the statue of you."
Leo was not satisfied with the guild master's explanation.
" why then make me a statue? "
" i. that is, to give the guild an incredible impression. Because you are a very famous person. As well as the strongest in the kingdom of Nusantara."
Leo was curious about the guild master's answer.
"the strongest? Why would that be?"
Guild masters were also curious as to why Leo asked that.
"didn't you know about the royal announcement?"
Leo shook his head because he knew nothing.
Realizing that Leo did not know, the guild master sighed as he had to explain about this as well.
"so this way, one month ago, after the guild report reached the center, they informed His Majesty the King about the Phoenix subjugation mission.
The goal is to get the support of the royal family. Because this mission was never completed even with a large number of parties. But you can complete this mission with only two people.
That thing is. Which makes the guild give you the title as the strongest adventurer. And one person we're hiding.
Then His Majesty the King with his authority announced that you are the strongest magician at the moment. As well as the strongest adventurer with an SSS rank."
Leo was really surprised by the guild master's explanation. He did not expect that His Majesty the King would not lose in making contact with him either. Even to give predicate to Leo.
" it's a lot more complicated than I thought."
" you're right! Therefore we can only erect statues in the guild courtyard. It was to give the guild an incredible impression. As well as increasing the influence of one of the strongholds in the central guild."
Leo returned curious about the situation of the central guild.
" what's wrong with the central guild? "
The guild master sighed then returned to speak.
" huh... The central guild was now split into two camps. The first stronghold was led by the current guild leader. They are pro-government strongholds.
Then another one is the camp that is against the kingdom. Who leaked information about you a few months ago.
Surely they have the support of the counter nobles."
Leo became annoyed after hearing the guild master's explanation. He did not expect that the counter nobles also affected the guild that was supposed to be neutral. What else are they that made Leo's identity revealed.
Leo had to take care of this matter while in the capital. It was impossible for him to just remain silent while trouble was enveloping the kingdom.
"which guilds belong to the counter camp?"
"for that is not clear! Only the two great guilds who were in the capital alone revealed their identities. Those outside the capital still haven't shown any movement."
Leo thought for a moment about the situation.
'huh.. I have to go to the Armor Note group. They must have more detailed information.'
" huh... I'll take care of that later. So we're back in our business. WHY IS MY STATUE IN FRONT OF THE GUILD?"
The guild master tensed up again as he assumed Leo had forgotten about the matter.
"huhah.. That's to make you more famous."
The guild master averted his gaze. But refocus because they feel a pretty gripping feeling.
"wool.."
He swallowed the saliva as Leo let out a little of his aura.
"do you know? I got a weird look from the citizens. And I don't like that."
Leo's eyes were sharp looking into the guild master's eyes.
Hearing that remark, the guild master nodded.
"sorry!"
"sorry? You think you can stop my upset just by apologizing?"
Leo increased his aura pressure.
It made the guild master's sweat splatter.
Guild masters became extremely afraid of Leo now. It was because he had heard the information about the Black Guild destruction that Leo had done.
He thought if he made Leo angry more than this, then all the guilds in the works could be leveled by Leo.
It is better to choose a safe way to solve the problem.
"of course with this!"
Leo showed a hand gesture that hinted about money.
Guild master understood what Leo meant.
He nodded then went to take the cash from the guild.
Leo waited leisurely and then pulled back his aura.
Meanwhile the guild master walked hurriedly towards storage.
"good morning, chief.."
Greetings from the officer he ignored.
"chairman why?"
One officer asked another officer. And answered by shrugging his shoulders.
The guild master arrived at the storage room and met the attendant.
"hey! Give me 250 gold coins!"
The guild master had the attendant to prepare the money.
The attendant became curious about the guild master's purpose with the money.
"hem? What's the master for?"
"don't ask too many questions. The future of the guild is now at stake! Quickly get the money ready."
Officers are curious. However he did not want to interfere too much with the guild master's affairs. So he would just follow the guild master's orders and record them as personal expenses.
The attendant counted the gold coins and put them into a spatial pouch.
" please! "
" thank you! "
The guild master immediately returned to give it to Leo.
Arriving at his study, he saw Leo still with the same expression.
He sat down and gave a bag of gold coins to Leo.
"please!"
Leo took the bag and stood up to leave.
However he could see the expression of the guild master who was regretting himself losing hundreds of gold coins.
"guild master shouldn't be too sad about this. Just think of this as the advertising fee for the guild."
Leo smiled then left the guild master.
After Leo left, the guild master tried to calm himself down.
"uhuh.. Mr. Leonardo is right. Better not think about this too much. After all this was indeed the guild's mistake of using the name of lord Leo as a means of increasing the guild's influence."
The guild master calmed down again so that he would not become depressed. Yet still. He still deeply regretted that the guild's money disappeared instantly.
" But it's hundreds of gold coins. Not a small amount! "

Leo headed to the witch association. With Full Assassin skill that can make it up faster.
But that was not the reason Leo used this skill. But to avoid the citizens' stares are sharp enough to him.
But on the way, Leo felt if someone was watching him.
He spread his mind to find out who was following him.
Until he knew that behind there were 7 people secretly following from the guild building.
'hey.. It seems like someone is tired of living!'
