At the Adventurer's Guild.
Vivian and Marie stepped inside the main hall.
Although there weren't that many people because it was noon time, everyone immediately turned their heads to look at them.
Vivian left her cloak and whip back at the compound and had her gold necklace hidden underneath her armor. She had her hair tied into a ponytail and was wearing leather armor with a white shirt underneath, a pair of fingerless gloves, a pair of worn-out green pants, a pair of old leather boots with metal plates covering its tip, and a kitchen knife hidden inside her left boot. In addition to that, on her waist, she had a small sack, a water pouch and her sword.
Meanwhile, for Marie, she too didn't wear her cloak and was wearing a full set of armor that covered from head to toe and had her necklace inside her armor. As for her weapons, she had a sword and a small mace around her waist.
Oh my God...
This is so embarrassing...
People must be thinking that Marie is a noble knight while I'm her squire or something...
Vivian tried protesting to Marie that she was overdressed but she argued that she didn't have any leather armor set. And even if she decided to buy one, she could order one which will take weeks to craft or go search for fixed sizes which will also take hours.
There was another issue -- her helmet.
Her reason for wearing such a helmet was because she didn't want to attract any attention with her beauty.
Vivian understood that part. But the issue was that Marie's hearing was a bit muffled due to the padding inside her helmet so Vivian had to either talk louder or communicate with her through hand gestures.
She also tried to propose having Marie wait elsewhere while she processes a quest at the Adventurer Guild. However, Marie refused because she wanted to see how things go at the guild.
"Vivian!" a female voice called out.
Vivian turned to the direction of where the voice was coming from and saw Pana waving at her behind the counter.
She waved back and headed to Pana.
Marie followed behind her.
"Vivian, I just heard the news. Congratulations on becoming a Priest!"
Pana said excitedly that she would've hugged her if not for the counter separating them.
"Thanks. So the news has spread already?"
"Yes," Pana said and then turned to Marie. "Hi."
"Hello, my lady," Marie said and offered an elegant bow. "Please call me Knight Warrior."
"O-Okay, Ms. Knight Warrior..."
Vivian cast her gaze down in embarrassment.
Given that Marie was currently in "disguised", another request she made was that she wanted to be called Knight Warrior. This was to emphasize that she wasn't a Priest, but a Warrior.
"So Vivian -- I mean, Honored Priestess Vivian, what brings you here? Quest?"
Vivian shot her a deadpan expression.
"Seriously? You're going to call me that?"
Pana chuckled.
"It's not always I get to know someone who became a Priest and then I get to tease them."
Vivian massaged her temples.
Am I bound to attract more people like Pana and Marie in the future...?
This really would've been nice if I were still a man...
