After all, he never tried one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of the party he had in the past was made out of players, who were always greedy for rewards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the moment, with his Title that earned an instant trust to NPC, the likelihood of them betraying him for the sake of rewards was low.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hell, Max wouldn’t even be surprised if they were motivated to work with him to clear the dungeon—the reason the Greyfen Village was established in the first place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Max visited the Warrior Yard first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As expected, the guards didn’t even try to block him as they politely paved a way for him to enter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Branna Holt, the current instructor of the warriors, was teaching all the players, including some NPC’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she saw Max, she was instantly distracted by his presence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She has already been informed by Max’s contribution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ignoring him also meant ignoring the savior of the village and a citizen of the Empire, who has a brighter future than her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She certainly didn’t want the young man to have a bad impression of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, without hesitation, the Blade Saint, who was teaching the aspiring swordsman\u002Fwoman how to swing a sword, suddenly left them to his subordinate, a C-Rank Knight, to continue teaching on her stead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She instantly appeared in front of Max, startling him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Max was about to greet her, when Branna greeted him first, \"Welcome, young savior. Why are you here? I assumed it involves a quest by the Lieutenant?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Max nodded. \"Yes, Ma’am Branna. Can you recommend someone to help me clear the dungeon?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Branna beamed a smile. \"Which do you prefer? The new ones like you, who possess talents. Or my daughter, who has the highest potential among them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Max was taken aback. He did not expect for Branna to have a daughter in a village like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, she was a Blade Saint, enough to be an Imperial Officer in the Empire. She could own a villa in a city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, not only was she here after being assigned by the Empire, even her daughter accompanied her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she’s a single mother, then that makes sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Max quite admired the mother and daughter duo. The mother handled the responsibility of being a mother while managing her job, while the daughter seemed to not be complaining of the place where she grew up and even became a swordswoman, surpassing most men in terms of talent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of the swordsmen might be embarrassed because of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said, \"Is that okay for you? After all, the local dungeon is still dangerous.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Branna’s face turned solemn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was silent for a while and finally replied, \"She already reached past the coming of her age. I can’t babysit her forever. She must leave the nest I’ve built for her and fly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, I’m assured that you’ll protect her, right? Even if she will be in the frontline?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Max chuckled. \"Of course, I’ll definitely ensure her safety. I can’t offend Ma’am Branna because of my carelessness.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Branna laughed. \"And of course, I can assure you that my daughter will not be a burden to you. She might have a rough start the moment she enters the dungeon since it’ll be her first time fighting a demon or monster, please give her some time to adjust and she’ll shine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’s the \"highest potential swordswoman\" for a reason.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Max nodded. \"I trust your judgement, Ma’am Branna. I believe you aren’t letting your mother’s side obscure your job. You balance it efficiently, I’m certain of that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Branna giggled. \"You better stop, young man. I’m ovulating.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Max was speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Branna laughed even more seeing his reactions and pinched his cheeks, causing Max to whimper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m just teasing you, alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She then pulled her hand away from Max, giving the latter an enormous sigh of relief, as she turned around and shouted, \"Eva, come here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eva was not training alongside the players, who had yet to gain their class advancement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was sparring against another D-Rank Swordsman, whose stamina was already drained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eva, on the other hand, despite perspiring heavily, walked towards them without a clear sign of exhaustion on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as she arrived, she scrutinized Max sneakily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She said to Branna, \"What is it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Branna beamed a smile and pointed at Max.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Meet this young man. He already has a good impression on you, right? That’s normal. After all, he’s the savior in the village.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eva’s eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hurriedly straightened her back and faced Max, bowing deeply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"N-Nice to meet you, Savior.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Max smiled and nodded. \"Nice to meet you too, Eva.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eva was flustered. She didn’t expect the savior to be at the same age as her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was also quite handsome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gauging her daughter’s reaction, Branna smiled and said, \"This young savior...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Max,\" said Max politely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Branna nodded. \"Max is looking for a comrade to help him conquer the dungeon. I’m recommending him to you. I could remember you nagging me to allow you to fight monsters or demons, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is your chance. Do you accept his invitation?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eva’s mind turned blank. Her mother’s action was totally out of her expectations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would take some time for her to process what was really happening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was stunned quite longer even more because Max kept staring at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It took her some time to regain her composure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stammered, \"N-Nice to meet you. I-I’ll be under your care.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her face turned beet red when she realized something was wrong from what she said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>T-That sounds really, really wrong! Did I just confess to him?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Max, on the other hand, didn’t think something was wrong at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He simply nodded and said, \"Likewise. I hope we’ll get along and finally clear the dungeon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Branna watched their interactions, speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She gazed at Max and thought.This guy sure is dense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Max turned towards Branna and said, \"I’ll return here tomorrow. I hope she’s ready by then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Branna stared at Max with an ambiguous expression in silence for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She said, \"You know, you don’t fully understand what you’re saying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder, you’re single.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>===\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A\u002FN: Thanks for reading!
