The two GAA members also didn't expect Almond to find someone he knew. Well, that made things certainly easy because they knew they'd be facing some annoyance from this guild courtesy of them crashing into their raid.
Alas, they didn't know they might be facing more than just annoyance now.
"I…wasn't expecting to see you here," Henry wryly smiled. "But…" his eyes showed confusion and disbelief as he asked, "Shouldn't you be silver-rank still? Don't tell me you reached Gold rank?"
"Haha, I am still Silver-rank, of course," Almond chuckled as he stretched his hand. "How's things been since then?"
"Not damaging," Henry shook hands, a grateful smile on his face. He also magic whispered. 'Thanks to your leniency, nothing bad happened, but you here…might bring trouble to you.'
Almond captured a hint of distress in his eyes.
