I'm an Automaton, That's Right!

"I have a name, you know," the tiger guy approached us with a sour face. "B-rank adventurer, Gregory the Wall Breaker. That's who I am."

From his body motion, I did not sense any ill-intent. I quickly told Asfi (telepathically) to retract her stance before anything got out of control.

"(…Understood. Are you sure, though?)"

"(He meant no harm by coming down here. I can sense it.)"

And so, we began engaging in verbal confabulations.

"What are you doing down here, Mr. Gregory?"

"The same question to you, stranger," the tiger man stood tall above my head, staring down at me. "I took a job as a warden down here to keep an eye out for that chick. You on the other hand… you tricked the knights into letting you through. It was a command from their captain to not let a soul enter except him and me, no matter who and what they are. Do you realize what you have done…?"
