## Chapter 363 – Collecting Debts
An unsavory incident.
It certainly was an unsavory incident. An unsavory incident, and if we were to be strict about it, it was something that happened because of Serka. But I’m not stupid enough to argue that here.
Because she’ll definitely be thinking of bringing up that issue again now that she’s heard I’ve come.
In that case, I have to beg unconditionally.
“That unsavory incident… it was truly a regrettable affair. I couldn’t sleep because of the guilt, Guild Master. I’m so touched that you’re giving me this chance to apologize, even if it’s today. I will formally apologize. I’m begging you, please forgive me.”
I bowed my head while apologizing as politely as possible.
“What the hell are you babbling about all by yourself?”
“Huh?”
Riztina’s expression is questioning as she listens to my words.
What’s this?
She’s not thinking of bringing up that issue?
I sat quietly and waited for her to speak, and she opened her mouth.
“I’ve been thinking about talking to you sometime, but I haven’t had the chance. Since you happened to come this way…”
“I’m sorry. I’m really, truly sorry. Please forgive me just this once. I’ve been suffering from insomnia lately because I’m so sorry.”
“Ugh. I didn’t call you here to receive an apology, so shut up. And it’s obvious you’re forcing yourself to beg, you idiot.”
Damn it.
As expected, heartfelt apologies don’t work in this world.
Still, it seems like she has something else to talk about separately.
“Then what did you call me here for? Did I do something wrong? Could it be because I was flirting with Lizette?”
I definitely beat up Lizette, but it was a mutual assault. Could it be that she’s angry because the position of senior instructor became vacant because of that?
I was the one who got beat up more.
“Huh? What are you talking about, Lizette?”
I guess not.
“Ah. It’s nothing. Anyway, what’s the matter? I, Kim Kat, promise to answer anything you ask with all my heart. That’s the most I can do to repent. Please, Guild Master, ask me anything.”
“You’re being too polite.”
“Please don’t be like that.”
“I’m starting to get annoyed… Just shut up and answer my questions.”
“…”
In that case, I’ll keep my mouth shut and wait for her to speak.
“Aren’t you going to answer?”
“Ah, no, you told me to only answer the questions…”
“Aish, goddamn it.”
Seriously, what do you want me to do?
Anyway, I kept my mouth shut and stared intently into her blue eyes, and she suddenly avoided my gaze and cleared her throat.
“Ahem, ahem. Then let’s get to the main point.”
“…”
“A little closer.”
She wants me to come closer?
ㅡCreak.
I pulled my chair closer to her.
It seems like she’s planning to tell me something secret.
Currently, this place is on the 4th floor and even the door is locked, so I wondered if it was something that required that much security, and as I was about to put my ear closer, I suddenly noticed that Riztina’s face was red.
“Guild Master?”
Then, with a reddened face, she slowly looked around and said in a quiet tone, secretly.
“…Did you see it?”
“Pardon?”
“I asked if you saw it.”
I couldn’t understand for a moment.
What is she asking if I saw?
“What am I supposed to have seen?”
“If you pretend you don’t know, I swear I’ll fucking destroy you. You saw it back then, didn’t you?”
“That’s why I’m asking what you’re talking about. Even if I get destroyed, I need to know what you’re asking about to know whether I should be destroyed or not.”
“That’s…”
As she said that, her voice began to shrink as if it were crawling into a mouse hole. Damn it, I’m going to die of frustration.
“The, the other day…”
“The other day?”
“With Karin, that bitch…”
“Yes. With Karin.”
“When we were fighting…”
“When you were fighting, you mean. Good. You’ve said it well so far. What happened then?”
I decided to help her like a counselor, as she seemed to be having a very hard time talking.
Even though it doesn’t look like it, I once volunteered to be a peer counseling soldier in the army because I was tempted by the promise of vacation.
I failed, though.
“So, back then…”
“Take a deep breath slowly. It seems like it’s a difficult story to tell. Speak slowly. It’s okay. It’s just you and me here, Guild Master. No one can hear us.”
“…”
She’s starting to bite now.
It’s the moment the Guild Master’s mouth opens…!
“No, goddamn it. How many times have I told you to shut up?”
Suddenly raising her head, she said in a fierce tone.
“I was just trying to help you because you seemed to be having a hard time talkingㅡ”
“Aaaargh! Are you going to keep annoying me when I already feel like my head is about to explode and I’m going to die!”
ㅡThump!
Riztina, who slammed the desk hard with her palm, jumped up and shouted loudly. I was so surprised that I could only tear at my hair and be inhumanly shocked.
“I’m asking if you saw it back then, goddamn it! When Karin and I were fighting like crazy! I’m asking if you saw me getting my clothes torn off!”
ㅡWhat!
In an instant, what happened at the time began to flash through my vision like a panorama.
A dreamlike sight that I could never forget…
The sight of two beautiful female Guild Masters, half-naked, revealing their shameful parts to the world, smashing buildings as they fought.
“Ah.”
Of course, I also clearly remember admiring the rather cute-looking lower part of this woman in front of me without any filters.
ㅡIt was smooth.
I was overlapping that messy appearance at the time with the appearance of Riztina in front of me now.
“…Um. No, that’s.”
So, I ended up blushing and lowering my head.
Even if it’s my wives, who I’ve shared love with so much that I’m used to it, the martial artist Guild Master Riztina in front of me is literally a stranger.
I can’t help but feel mutual shame since I saw such a sight.
Honestly, Riztina’s beauty was quite beautiful, as women who train mana tend to be.
Her sky-blue hair also looks very soft, and her skin and body are also attractive, as she works in a physical profession. Firm thighs and long legs. On top of that, big breasts and… even the pseudo-cheongsam outfit that emphasizes them.
Of course, that doesn’t mean she’s as beautiful as Claudia and Winia, and Karin and Lady Risha… but it’s true that she’s quite pretty.
Ah!
I know what she’s asking!
She’s thinking of holding me accountable for showing her shameful appearance to a man back then! Honestly, it’s something that women would be concerned about!
“H-head! Why are you lowering your head! You saw everything after all! My, my… semi-nudity!”
ㅡThwack! Thwack! Thwack!
As if she was terribly embarrassed, she kept slamming the desk with her palm and shouted at me while sticking her face close to mine. Her face was also flushed red.
ㅡThwack! Thwack! Thwack!
But the desk was being smashed in real time.
She’s tearing up the wooden board with just the strength of her palm.
If I get hit by even one blow from those hands, I’ll have to live the rest of my life groaning. I, I can’t let that happen!
No!!!
Feeling the danger of death, I calculated the most correct choice.
“I, I don’t know what you’re talking about. What did I see? From the middle… th-that, it was a battle that transcended my perception, so I don’t know what happened.”
It’s been a while, and it happened in the midst of confusion, so if I just talk a good game, I can transform what happened into something that didn’t happen.
In other words, erasing history.
Above all, it’s common sense to tell a white lie in such a situation to minimize the woman’s shame.
It’s enough to have beautiful memories only in your head.
The moment you bring memories into reality, they become nothing more than something old. The value as a memory is lost, and it becomes something that doesn’t matter anymore.
Riztina’s… vulva… yeah, specifically, it was hairless and smooth, and the shape was similar to Claudia’s.
That’s why I can’t forget it.
But saying I don’t know is the right answer.
“What happened back then? Ah, could it be…? You’re embarrassed because you lost to Karin. Haha, it’s okay. It was a draw.”
“What do you mean a draw, I won! No, more than that, don’t change the subject! You definitely saw my… semi-nudity back then! Didn’t you see my semi-nudity!”
I tried to distort the topic of conversation to the match in moderation, but I failed.
“Semi-nudity, I don’t know what you’re talking about! Don’t say such things because it’s embarrassing! Semi-nudity, semi-nudity…! Why are you tormenting me! I don’t know the situation well because I was taking care of Karin back then!”
“Don’t be embarrassed, don’t talk nonsense! I know you were hiding behind the rubble and watching me! I clearly begged you to get lost back then…!”
At the time, I was watching her until the end to give Karin the victory, interfering with Riztina, who was trying to cover her body while being conscious of me.
I never thought that would come back as a backlash… How do I get past this?
“I definitely saw you fighting… but, that, semi-nudity! I don’t know about semi-nudity! I mean I’ve never seen semi-nudity!”
“Aaaargh! Don’t say it!”
“I don’t know! I’m leaving!”
I took advantage of the fact that Riztina was in a state of confusion and jumped up. If I leave now pretending that nothing happened, it will be natural.
ㅡGrasp.
“Where do you think you’re running off to?”
My arm was grabbed.
ㅡSqueeze.
And strength is applied.
I pretended to be nonchalantㅡ
“ㅡUwaaaaaargh!!! Let go! It hurts!”
“Are you going to keep lying? Do you think I’m going to punish you or something? I’m just asking if you saw my… semi-nudity back then!”
“Aaaaaaargh!!!”
“Stop screaming!”
It was literally a pain that felt like my arm was about to explode. With that much grip strength, I’m sure I’ll lose muscle mass 100%.
Anyway, as soon as she let go of my arm, I finally caught my breath.
“Keuh…! That hurts so much!”
“So. Did you see it?”
She said forcefully as if she didn’t care about my pain. I was so frustrated that I was going crazy.
I even gave her a wooden log out of consideration, but this is really too much.
Anyway, I don’t think I can make any more excuses.
“Yes. I saw it. I said I saw it. I’m sorry for seeing it.”
“Okay! You saw it…! But why do you keep lying? You just made me lose energy!”
“Th, that’s…!”
I couldn’t understand why she lacked so much empathy.
Of course, it’s true that the sensibilities of people in this world are quite violent compared to a cultured modern person like me. But she doesn’t even notice that I’m being considerate and pretending not to know, she seems like a gangster from birth.
I told her the truth.
“I was just… trying to be considerate because it seemed like the Guild Master was very embarrassed.”
“C-consideration?”
Her face was already flushed red, and she widened her eyes at my words. It’s not surprising. The gentleman Kim Kat was a man who knew what consideration was.
“Yes. It’s consideration. You have to pretend you don’t know when you’re this embarrassed. Wouldn’t it be better to just bury such an unsavory incident?”
ㅡHaa.
A sigh came out on its own.
I was trying to say it as nicely as possible because I didn’t know what I would be subjected to, but in the end, the truth was revealed.
“Who’s embarrassed, I’m not embarrassed…”
Riztina, who was sitting back in her seat, turned her head to the side and said softly. I guess she’s embarrassed after all.
“Then aren’t you embarrassed? I would have been embarrassed too if I was in that situation.”
“Th, that’s… no, it’s not necessarily…”
“If you’re not embarrassed, why did you call me here!”
“That’s… Aaaargh! I don’t know, goddamn it!”
Suddenly swearing, she pointed at me with a red face and said as if scolding me.
“That, what happened back then! You wouldn’t have told anyone or spread it around, would you!”
“Guild Master. I just told you it was consideration. I haven’t told anyone, and I haven’t said it out loud since then. Even though the Guild Master kidnapped me, I have to protect your honor as the Guild Master.”
Who would I tell that Karin and this person were fighting like crazy and suddenly the atmosphere changed to an erotic extravaganza, and they smashed the building with that power?
Well, I have good intentions in my own way.
After all, I was able to make Karin my woman because of that day’s incident. The beginning and development of the incident were bizarre, but in the end, the fruits of love were born after going around and around.
Didn’t I pour out my desires on Karin just this morning?
“I was just trying to be silent because I thought the Guild Master would be uncomfortable. I’m not deceiving or lying. Well, there’s no point in holding a grudge anyway. Isn’t that right? It’s like the Guild Master doesn’t have any intention of harming me either.”
“That’s… I guess so. Consideration, consideration… You, you know how to be considerate…”
I slipped in a hint not to hit me, but looking at her answer, it seems like she doesn’t intend to hit me.
That’s a relief.
Now I won’t be bothered by the martial artist guild.
“So, Guild Master. Let’s just pretend that day never happened. If you have any complaints, I’ll tell Karin. I’ll be on my way.”
I stood up from my chair again.
