Ester smirked and continued, "So I told them as arrogantly as possible, while my heart was nervously beating so quickly I thought it was about to escape my body."
"Vice Captain Ben from the south gate is waiting for us to bring his injured friend to him. We are already late as it is. Vice Captain Ben with his Vice Captain buddies might come to the east gate to look for us soon."
"Additionally, this man has a rising star title from the adventurers guild. Are you sure you want to stop us? Do you have the guts to make the Adventurers Guild and Vice Captain Ben your enemies?"
"Heh, Didn't you hear the rumors about a Vice Captain getting fired or, let's say, replaced recently? So, hmm, what do you think would happen to soldiers if it can happen to Vice Captains?"
Lupa didn't want to be left out of the conversation and proudly said, "I barked at the five soldiers when I saw one of them draw a sword. Hehe, they were so scared that they let us go."
