"Do not engage in any more of this kind of behavior, or next time you will not only be demoted in rank, but also suspended for five years."

Dantalian spoke as he finished writing a letter. After folding and sealing it with his name, he threw it into the air, and it quickly disappeared in front of everyone's eyes. In its place, a small piece of paper appeared, with the words "Thank you for using the services of the Great Library," falling into Dantalian's hand.

"Now, disappear from here," Dantalian said, watching all the adventurers, except for the one who had started all of this, run as if the city were under attack by a monster.

"Now, as for you, what should I do with you? Causing this revolt for personal reasons, hindering a higher-ranked adventurer from completing a mission assigned by a duchess, opening that sewer you call a mouth and directing vulgar words towards a higher-ranked adventurer, not to mention clearly extorting adventurers and harassing other female adventurers. Do you have anything else to confess?"

Dantalian leaned forward, showing his ear to the trembling individual in front of him. The adventurer seemed to have forgotten how to speak.

'You bastard, why are you smiling? You just extorted me...' Thinking this, the adventurer had an idea and looked at Dantalian with a smug smile as he spoke.

"You just extorted me, didn't you? A higher-ranked adventurer, not a guild master, doing this?"

"Oh, are you going to use that against me? Who do you think they'll believe? The adventurer who constantly messes up or me? Besides being a guild master, I have a direct connection with a Duchess."

"What?"

Dantalian sighed and looked back.

"Freytan, bring me a blank letter."

Freytan began tapping his foot on the carriage roof and said,

"I'm not your servant, so stop asking for this kind of thing."

"Does the master ask me to do it?" Amanda said.

"Amanda, you're taking care of the carriage, and look, Freytan is already by my side."

Freytan silently handed over the blank letter.

' What the hell did I get myself into? ' thought the kneeling adventurer on the ground.

A few minutes passed, and Dantalian reduced the adventurer to the White Rank, turning him into a novice adventurer. Unlike other novices, he would now have no support until reaching the Purple Rank, which would likely take several years since he was still in the Blue Rank.

"Well, this little show is finally over," Fiona said, stretching her arm.

"Master, weren't you too harsh on him?"

Actually, no. I was even too good to him. I only lowered his rank and removed the item supports, location services, and group search that guilds provide."

"If he goes crazy and comes after you, I won't do anything. You'll have to deal with him," Freytan said.

"Oh, how lovely. But I don't think it'll be difficult for him to do something. But more importantly, let's get out of this town before more crazies show up. I'm tired of this game."

Fiona smiled broadly. "So, all of this was just a game? You know you drastically changed their lives, right?"

Dantalian yawned. "Who cares about that? They got what they deserved. If they had kept quiet, nothing would have happened."

"Well, I can't argue with my owner. Now that this is over, can we finally continue the journey?" Fiona asked.

"I'm ready, master. As soon as everyone is inside the carriage, we can leave."

"This was all such a waste of time," Freytan said.

After Freytan's remark, everyone got into the carriage, and the journey resumed. This time, there were no stops in other cities. The journey lasted ten days and eleven nights. Unfortunately, they were unable to meet the Duchess's daughter along the way, and a few random events occurred, which only served as a competition between Freytan and Fiona to see who could clean the streets faster. In the end, Fiona proved to be the winner, taking only seven seconds to kill all the ogres, goblins, and bandits that appeared.

On the day they arrived in the Elven Kingdom,

"Ugh, I can't believe I lost by five seconds. Using magic should be against the rules," Freytan lamented, lying on the ground.

"So, Freytan, you know, right? What we agreed on? Now that you lost, you'll have to dress as I want."

Fiona looked at Dantalian, signaling with her thumb.

"No need to thank me, Dantalian. I'm also curious to see how she'll look as a bunny girl."

"Oh, that's unfair! I also want to see," Amanda said as she controlled the carriage.

"Dantalian," Freytan said.

Dantalian looked at Freytan, still on the ground, motionless, and with a smile on his face. "What is it?"

Freytan sat on the ground, her eyes lifeless, as if her soul was leaving her body. "Please, kill me."

"It's not my fault. You knew Fiona is a monster. It's just that you couldn't resist and made this competition with her. And another thing, I'm looking forward to tonight."

Freytan's power began to overflow from her body, and she looked at Fiona, pointing at her with a furious gaze. "Just you wait. I'll make you pay for this."

Fiona looked at Freytan with superiority. "I'll be waiting, Freytan. Show that you're worthy of being by my owner's side."

"And Dantalian, I'll gouge your eyes out at night if you look at me with desire."

Dantalian simply ignored what Freytan said. She could talk all she wanted, but even she knows that her threat was empty.

"Master, it seems we've arrived. Wow, is that a floating castle?" Amanda said, looking at the shadow of a massive castle in her view.

"Really?" Dantalian looked at Fiona and Amanda, who were staring at each other. "Both of you, get ready. We'll reach the Elven Kingdom in a few minutes."

Upon hearing this, Amanda and Fiona's eyes sparkled, although for different reasons, their happiness was the same.

"Finally, I can properly train your body, Dantalian," Fiona said, thinking of Dantalian's body covered in bruises, looking at him fiercely.

"I hope this servant of the Fifteen you both mentioned is really strong. What good is this sword if there's nothing to cut with it?" Freytan said, looking at her own reflection in the blade of her sword.

The carriage stopped, and Amanda said, "Master, Fiona, Freytan, come see this. This place is beautiful... Can we live here, master?"

The carriage was parked on the descent of the mountain that led directly to the enormous gate of the Elven Kingdom. From this angle, if you looked to the side, you could clearly see the entire Elven Kingdom. Obviously, you couldn't see all the details, but its beauty and splendor were already apparent.

Even the houses of a simple village in the kingdom displayed an unparalleled level of beauty and design, something that only the highest-ranking nobles in the human kingdom could have. Each building was an architectural masterpiece with intricate details, natural elements incorporated into their structures, and an unmatched sense of elegance. Stone and wooden houses blended in perfect harmony, creating a charming and welcoming environment. However, one building stood out above all: the majestic royal castle atop a towering tree.

In the center of the kingdom, there stood a massive tree that captivated all gazes. Its imposing and majestic structure resembled the grand ancient trees found in legendary tales. The trunks of the trees intertwined to form a solid and sturdy base for the tree that reached up into the heavens.

The foliage of this remarkable tree was a spectacle in itself. Inspired by the enchanting colors and shapes of nature, its leaves were soft and delicate, blooming

 in a variety of vibrant shades. Soft purples, captivating pinks, and hues of lavender emanated an irresistible beauty, enveloping the tree in an enchanted veil.

At the top of this towering tree, nestled within its intertwined branches, stood the majestic royal castle. Its grand and elegant structure was a testament to the power and glory of the Elven Kingdom. Towering spires reached toward the sky, offering panoramic views of the entire expanse of the kingdom. The architectural details of the castle were a perfect blend of natural elements and refinement.

The Elven Kingdom was adorned with an abundance of trees, creating a natural tapestry that stretched throughout the entire kingdom. These trees extended their welcoming branches, providing cool shade and shelter.

"Wow, looking at this, I'm surprised the Fifteen haven't taken over this place yet," Fiona said, but then she noticed something strange in her statement. "Actually, shouldn't it be called the Fourteen now?"

Your question was not answered, as Dantalian and Freytan were looking at the elven kingdom through the window, lost in thoughts.

Dantalian was apprehensive in the elven kingdom. He will encounter not one, but two heroines. Reflecting on his previous encounter, he realized that the entity's message is related to something he is unable to control. Acting correctly or drawing attention will not work. He needs something more, as even with Fiona, who is behaving in her own way, there was no sign of the message.

'I think I was a bit too arrogant,' Dantalian chuckled inwardly. He knew that the kingdom's problem is nothing compared to what he truly has to accomplish.
