Summoning went wrong

Chapter 4. First client

"And then you came and then you just do that thing and then, and then..."

"Yes, I was there, I saw it."

This was going on for an hour or so. In the meantime, the sky turned dark and most of the costumes left the dining room.

The girl before me, Ana if I heard it correctly, was talking non-stop since then, rarely taking breaths, making me wonder if she's even a human.

"Eh, sorry for interrupting, but why did you follow me?"

"Oh, yeah I forgot! I wanted to thank you for saving me!

"You're welcome, now if you excuse me, I will go now..."

"Wait!"

She grabbed my arm before I could go.

Even with a metal gauntlet being touched by a girl made me blush slightly.

I was never good with girls and now one is holding my hand so suddenly...

"Please, I need your help!"

"Aaaah...."

Then she started to talk again.

In a nutshell, she is a member of the cities knights and accepted a request from the city's lord. The request is that she has to bring down a major crime organization that was terrorizing the city from the shadows. They have the whole city in their hand, doing things as they please. She and her group found one of their hid out, but they were defeated, some of them killed, some of them captured and the rest is hiding. She, the bravest or the stupidest, continued her mission, making herself a target. The attack today was definitely their doing.

"Thanks to you I was lucky, but I'm sure that they will attack me again."

"Let me guess, you want my help."

" So you will help me?!"

"No."

The smile on her face disappeared leaving the place of a shocked look.

"You want me to help you, who I just met, to bust a major crime organization that is controlling the entire city? Forget it."(Desmond)

"B-But..."

"Plus, even if your whole situation wasn't so... terrible, you didn't really give me a reason for helping you. So, no thanks."(Desmond)

Besides, this whole situation reeks. If this whole city is in their hands, then why did they let the guards send someone to arrest them. And she is alone. She must be sent here as an example, for those who wish to go after them in the future. I will not be dragged into this!

" A quest! Yes, you are a member of the adventurer guild, right? I can make a..."

"Sorry to disappoint you, but I'm only a traveler. I have no connection to the adventurers guild."

"But you can fight, no?! I saw you must be an exceptional assassin or knife thrower!"

I know about [Assassin] from the books but [Knife Thrower] is new to me. Is the job you have any relation with your fighting style? Thanks for leveling up, my strengths have drastically increased, but I stuck to knives since they were easy to use and hide.

"...I'm a potion maker."

A potion maker is a job specialized in making different types of beverages that have different effects. Contrary to the Alchemist job this one was most common between doctors and was viewed as one of the best ones. The only flaw it had was that it didn't give any offensive ability or skill.
