The next morning after the incident with the steel party failing to clear sapphire
Ranked dungeon. it became a known the party has fallen and only two of its
Member was able to clear it. also the first fallen party to come back patched
as a whole. the families of the fallen held a burial and mourned for their loss
meanwhile ashrey takes a short break from her receptionist work and decides
To leave her post and one of her colleagues covered for her. she then proceed
To drop by in the left dormitory to pay kouha and erasia a visit. she then appraoched
The dormitory owner " Good Morning Ma'am is Kouha and Erasia are here?"
She asked politely " Oh good morning miss head receptionist. yes erasia
came back after buying from one of their associates " The Dormitory owner
Responded to her " Associates? they are still in steel rank and already have
connections? those never cease to surprise and impress people especially me "
Ashrey responded " What about Kouha? " she added " According to erasia
Kouha decided to sleep through for whole day "The dorm owner replied
" i see. if they ever came down please tell them that ill be waiting for them at the
Guild's reception " Ashrey requested " Will do. Miss Head receptionist" The dorm
Responded then ashrey smiled at her and walks back to the guild.
Later at the dusk Kouha and Erasia descends from upstairs " oh you're finally up!"
The dorm owner noticed " Yeah i wasn't feeling well psychologically " Kouha
Responded to her " Miss Head receptionist from the guild dropped by earlier"
She notified her " Ashrey? what she is here for?" Kouha asked " she seems
to wanted to check on you guys .and oh she also said if you ever leave your
room she'll be waiting " ah right.. me and erasia are ranking up to sapphire
After all.. got it we'll be going there now " as Kouha about to open the door
" wait! are you not gonna eat before leaving? you haven't eaten breakfast
And lunch you know! " The dorm owner says worriedly "I'll eat when we
Return " Kouha replied as she opens the door and then she and erasia leaves.
both of them then spun a heel towards the guild to meet up with Ashrey
Then upon reaching the reception both of them talk to ashrey
" We're here " Kouha says in a very discourage tone " I know this isn't the
Best time to rank you up but i had to do this its my job" Ashrey says
" I Understand please get on with it " Kouha answers and Ashrey nods her head
" Guild card and adventurer tags please " Ashrey asked then both kouha and
Erasia hands over their guild card and adventurer's tag then ashrey takes it
" Upon clearing the dungeon of dismemberment a sapphire dungeon issued
For steel rank. and defeating its boss. the Devourer Lord you two are
Bestowed the rank of Sapphire and me personally thank you two of the
Effort of trying to save your members and patching up the fallen so that their
families can see them one last time. thank you. thank you so much in behalf
of cygnus guild. kouha, erasia " Ashrey bows then all receptionist too bowed
at the two of them " Yeah.. sure i am glad too " Kouha smiled at them mildly
Then Ashrey proceeds to upgrade their card and tag from steel tier to Sapphire
Tier this changes the palette and the quality of their guild card and adventurer's
Tag from steel to sapphire then she returned these to them then the two takes it
And tucks it back to their bag's small pockets that are meant to keep valuables
" Thanks we'll get going now " Then she and erasia turns around and walks away
Dusk turned into night fall as kouha and erasia walk together in the streets
kouha then turned to erasia to say something " You go back first i got something
To do " She told erasia and the other nods her head without asking why and its
because erasia knew what she is gonna do anyways. then both of them separate
ways. erasia heads towards the dorm and kouha heads towards the flower shop
Then at Cygnet the heart of cygnus the mother city of the whole nation.
Kouha visits one of its cemeteries one that is specifically made for the fallen
Adventurers the Gardens of passed. she then spun a heel looking for the
Grave of her fallen steel party members. then after quite a long search
She found them at the farthest in the left side then she proceed to put
Bouquet of Lavenders on each one of them then she steps back further and
Looks at their graves " I Admire your gusto about clearing a dungeon but never
Your ignorance about safety. adventuring life is full of perils you know
The moment you all became adventurers you already should have understood
That. its a career no ordinary human would want to take. only those who knows
and are gifted at bending their own attributes at will. but it doesn't mean that
Your attributes can save or aid you all the time. " she sighed and shakes her head
and clenches her fists " with that saying. it is also my fault for not double checking
upon you guys and there was no room of trusting me in any of you. deep down
I know you just want to use as a ladder. but even so ill be still glad on helping
you for a temporary goal. i guess you all felt too overshadowed by me and
Erasia if you all climb through us " she then had a expression that can be
Describe as soft sorrow " But the nonetheless you all thought me something this
time and its something i would carry as i live. and that is i learned that i have
trust in people who i wanted to fight alongside with. and have them trust me in
return. i also learned that if there's a threat there should be a immediate respond
a fast and immediate response " She opens her palm and let the night breeze
Blew away the petals of pink carnations off her palm " Thank you for teaching
me this and may your souls resides peacefully in Noviere comrades " She then
Bows at them as a sign that she bids them farewell from the world of living
Then she turns around and walks away. and walks her way to the guild on foot
