Another reason that she wanted to fight Rose was due to her fear of blood, and since she knew that rose could control blood, she wanted to fight her and slowly get used to seeing blood all the time without having any mind-crippling shbacks in the middle of the fight.


    "I''m sure she is fine" June chimed in, also seemingly unworried and in reality, being the least worried person in the room.


    "How do you know that?" Rose spoke from where she stood, not bothering to nce back at June when speaking to her.


    "Like what Guildmaster Yuri said, a lot of people go in and note out for days. It would be a normal urrence for someone of her power to go into solitary cultivation for maybe even a month straight." June shrugged and took out hermunication crystal.


    "Yes, but the guildhall contacted me today about her overstaying her visit... She had only paid for 2 days and yet she is spending more than that, meaning she was not nning on staying for a long time which increases the chance that something had happened to her." Rose retorted this time a little maliceced in her words causing June to shudder.


    Throughout all of this, Olivia only looked towards the girls with a wry smile. She was worried but the fact that she had a connection with me helped her ovee most of that. The only thing that she knew was that I had gone into to room to absorb all the cultivation manuals. It was also the reason why whenever she tried to establish a mental connection with me, she would either get repelled, violently repelled, or in that one time, she was finally able to connect, a mind-shaking amount of information.


    "Let''s leave her for a few days, I''ll try to pay for her overstaying and she can pay me back when shees out" Olivia waved their words off dismissively.


    Currently, Olivia was wearing a mask due to the presence of June, but even when June wasn''t in the room, no one could see any traces of worry in Olivia''s face, as if she knew exactly how I was doing at all times without having to look by going there.


    At the same time, Yuri had concluded that Olivia was really good at masking her emotions, making her a little bit more wary of Olivia since they were both in the same guild after all. If she could mask her emotions here, it meant that she would be able to do it when they are speaking about funds or even guild activities.


    Being wary was a simple measure that Yuri had put in ce so Olivia does not scam them in the future, and after seeing how unfazed she was and how unlikely it would be for both Olivia and me to have a link that would tell us how we are both doing, she concluded that Olivia would be a very good maniptor since she could easily fake an emotion.


    "Don''t worry about the pay. I already paid for it and it really isn''t that much in the first ce" Rose shrugged, but for some reason, she still did not look towards them again after the first time.


    After that little interaction, however, everyone sat there in silence, the tension and awkwardness growing once again, causing them all except Rose, to take out theirmunication crystals, that they had installed all the images they had captured with their capture crystals, within.


    All of them began to either look through captures(photos) or in June''s case, they began to write to someone through the messaging feature that the newest crystals now have.

    On the outside of the guildhall, one could see the same 4dies that were sitting around on either side of the room back in Rose''s apartment standing in front of the guildhall, all of them looking at it with narrowed eyes as if something or someone inside had stolen their husbands.


    "Maybe we can wait an extra day?" Olivia tried to reason, yet her wordsnded on deaf ears.


    "I''m going in" Rose finally spoke, this time taking a step forwards simultaneous to her voice reaching the ears of the girls beside her. The moment the sole of her foot touched the floor, it cracked and her figure disappeared, appearing again in front of the sleepingdy in reception.


    After thedy felt a gust of wind hit her, she opened her eyes in a state of panic before looking around and finally locking eyes with Rose who was sending out a murderous aura.


    "I''ve never seen her this riled up about anything but mass killings, but those aside, nothing else" Yuri had an uneasy expression on her face as she looked at the back of Rose


    "M-Miss- I mean, Guildmaster! Is anything the matter?" The woman in the reception got up from her chair and pped the sleepiness away from her face before speaking to Rose with a worried smile on her face. She also made sure to keep a little hunched down, just enough o keep at eye level with Rose who was a little shorter than her.


    "I want to know-" Before Rose could finish speaking, the mana in the area began to fluctuate before haltingpletely


    "What was that?" She looked around warily causing other people to look around to see if they could find what she was looking for, yet, they did not find anything.


    "Is anything the matter, Guildmaster?" The woman asked Rose in a worried tone


    "Hmm... I don''t know if I imagine it or-" In the next instant, all those same mana particles began to shoot in a single direction, as if they were humans flocking for a treasure, or sheep flocking for hay or grass to eat.


    In the next moment, however, all the mana in the area had disappeared, and for those that were focusing on my mana signature, they widened their eyes as they say that I had also disappeared.

    Dozens of miles away in a deste mountain ''stood'' a figure d in shadows alongside another figure that was sitting in the lotus position.


    The mountain had been deste and empty before this, however, the moment that the two of them appeared, the seemingly deste empty ce began to be filled to the brim with something unexpected.


    "Divine beings surely do like to make a spectacle when breaking through," A voice said before letting out an audible sigh.
