Fake Identity

Alicia couldn't help but be silent when she found out that her rash actions had ruined Keiran's plans again.

"W-wait, didn't you say that I should be your protector?" She felt that her actions were not wrong as she sensed the threat from the man and remembered her duty to protect Keiran.

"Protector? Didn't you do it to protect your pride? He didn't even do anything to me. It was you who attacked this poor guy... Look around you, all the adventurers in the guild look terrified when they see us." While staring at the unconscious Kaleb, he summarized what had just happened, and showed the adventurers who were previously sitting at their desks now looking terrified at the side of the guild.

"Eh, ah... Looks like you're right." Alicia couldn't help it anymore and looked down regretfully after realizing that the violent act she had committed was solely to protect her pride. She did that without any consideration, and just followed her anger.
