Howard breathed a quiet sigh of relief.
"We're just curious to see what an adventurer's certification looks like."
Howard intended to pat Greg on the shoulder but realized that without bending down, he could only reach Greg's head, given the dwarf's short stature.
"Besides, we're members of an adventure group, after all. How can we not have an adventurer's certification?"
Howard believed his expression was convincing enough, and his reasoning sound, yet skepticism still lingered in Greg's gaze.
"That's not right!" Greg shook his head.
"I have a feeling something's off! You can go get your adventurer badges if you want, but I'm going to tell Antalya."
"We're an adventure group now. If there's any trouble, it's not just one person's problem!"
"You need to understand that!"
With those words, Greg turned and left, evidently to find Antalya.
Howard opened his mouth to speak but found himself at a loss for how to stop him.
