1 Episode 1: Luginas

As a certain event flashing from his past as an Adventurer Gin Galmung----

"Master, master!!"

A man sitting leisurely, feet seated above the table; slumped body in his chair, has shiftless and uncouth. . .opened his eyes as his dreams was interrupted from the sudden noise; his and the voluptuous lady's eye who just enters frantically--has met. . .

"What's wrong, Mirma?"

Lackadaisical, the man asks who looks like a 15 year old boy before his small physique, but do not be deceived as he is older than what an eye could see. . .but still. . .it would be, without a doubt that this man is indeed the guild master. . .Thanks to this lazy attitude of his made others laugh at him.

Thanks to this normal day of his life, did he unanimoisly received an alias amongst Guild Masters. a "Sloth".

The man then yawned hardly as if he doesn't get any sleep, as if he does not care. And after a few ellipses from the lady called Mirma, she then stated. . ."Master, there's an important gatherings amongst you Guild Masters. Meister Grunt informed me to 'please' attend in that meeting and---" explaining, her word was cut off

"She--that old man did? Oh well, cancel it, I am busy. . . tell him that" he replied after. . .

"Eh!? But that's one way message coming from the Tower of Cacophony" Mirma replied in surprise

"Next week is a normal Guild Master gatherings, I'll attend on that day, so for now, I am busy" he answers with one big yawn again; closing his tired eyes. Its been ages and he only attend their meeting counted by only one hand. Thanks to this, as his secretary, Mirma has many problems than she originally had. But not once did she complain in front of him

"Mou~ master, please don't do this to me! Meister wanted you to attend in that meeting!" She said so begging. Afterall, him, not going there is almost the same as, she didn't said the word given by the Meister itself

". . . . ." Unfortunately for her, an answer didn't arrive

BAAM——!

After then, another sound of slamming door echoes as another Lady with another vuloptuous body —but this one has perky ear—enters and said a word

"Oi Luginas! its an S Rank problem" But her word —and calling the guild master by his name— is indifferent and intimidated compare to Mirma.

"Uhm, Vice-sama. is that about Joy Merrily?" Mirma questioned, afterall, she has the same problem right at this moment while glancing back and forth between Luginas and the said Vice-sama

The Vice-sama then asks in return "That also?", Mirma nodded but surprised wear from the formers face as she noticed the 'seal' or the 'mark' given by the Meister itself. . .

For an elf who seek magic, she knew —no, not only her. All of those who heard and/or only read the almighty name, Grunt. . .knows who the 'Last Sage' and the Meister is. . .

But as if careless, Luginas stick up his nose asking "what about that S class problem then?" but his unkempt, messy raven hair and unproductive manner made the high elf wanted to spit him out of anger.

As for why? well, this man became the Guild Master not too long ago and haven't yet acknowledge by many (other than Grand Guild Masters themselves). The elf, Vice-sama is originally one of the Guild Master of this Kingdom and of this same City, but strength rules for such position and for some reason, she has defeated fair and square(?) against such sloth.

And thanks to her promise not to lose against him for the second time, did Luginas decided to accept(?) her as his Vice Guild Master and form a contract. . .Infuriated at first, but the poor elf set that thought aside for now, afterall, whats done is done. She's only waiting for the rematch though to teach this bum a lesson, is what's on her mind everyday. . .

But the two lady heard the familiar chuckle. . ."pfft. . .Joy? of all people? what is it then?"

Covering his mouth and hiding his laughter, Vice-sama was pissed by this man's daily attitude, vein popping out of her forehead and reported "Joy, and the current Kingdom's 'Hero' is having a small quarrel, they said the duel are 3 days later"

"Pfff, another Hero problem? jeez, gimme a break, those wannabes are always troublesome, and a duel? tsk tsk" this time, the two receive such normal response for once. . .if, disregard that irritating chuckle of his that is.

"What?" after the chuckle, be looked at the perplexed duo, thereafter, Mirma reported "There's also something that needs to be done, Master"

"Please do tell" scratching the back of his head as if telling he is not fit in this job, Luginas questioned

"Meister wanted you to teach the newly certified Adventurer who's about to arrive. . .The Knight of a Princess who has rare traits: <<Magic Swordsman>>" so Mirma reported. but that wasn't end.

"Okay? No. . .Stop. . .please---" But the voluptuous Mirma didn't pause even for a second as he complained, afterall teaching is not a thing for him as he find it troublesome.

"--Then as for the Princess herself, Guild Master should escort her personally until she arrived safely at Magic Academy"

"huh!? Wait what? Those tycoon! hasn't she had her so called Knight!? why would I accept such troublesome job? what am I? their bread shuttle!? I say. . .No!" complaining as his voice turned to high pitched, Luginas declined as of throwing a fit.

At the same time, the next word of Mirma made him shrug as the cold run down through his spine.

"---and don't forget our deal. . ." Mirma then concluded "is what was written, Meister himself deliver that message personally through magic projector, so please Guild Master!" begging again, Mirma is almost going to cry.

This is the first time she has received such a message from a highly regarded person, so, she immediately rush towards her guild master, to not forget a single word coming from the Meister.

As for the parchment, its an entrance ticket towards the Magic Academy. . .

Slumped his back in from his chair, Luginas gritted his teeth, irritated and look towards the celing. . .'boy, that flat chested magician, I'll unmask your pitiful face this time!, I could live leisure with my heart content once I've become the Guild Master you say? hah!' is what he complained again. . .
