Return of Adelredus

"The optimist sees the rose and not its thorns; the pessimist stares at the thorns, oblivious to the rose."

The next few days were hell. Being a new guild, I had to arrange the floor to accommodate my disciples. There's also the matter of the nearing bi-annual tournament: The Round Robin. Hopefully, with my disciples, dominating the Tournament would be an easy feat. 

As for Dustan and Alva, the two have been avoiding each other like a plague. It was almost sad how the two friends seemed anything but happy with the arrangement. I guess they're playing 'rivals' now. 

It makes me sick, just thinking about their deception. For now, I focused my efforts on Alucard and Litch who were about to make their debut on my floor. I knew that by having them debut on my floor would further drive the notion that I was favoring the two of them, and so I pushed through it.
