Bab 252: Using The City Teleporter

Astaroth looked at his friends with a startled face.

"I didn't want to be guild leader! It's too much pressure. I thought Phoenix would be the guild leader!"

"You mean you wanted me to bear that pressure?" Phoenix asked, jokingly.

"That's not… You would make a better guild leader, I'm certain."

"You will be fine. I'll help you. It needs to be you."

"Why me?"

"Because you're the strongest. And you are reliable and friendly. That's what people need of a guild leader. Someone they can count on to do the right thing and be there to defend them"

"But what if I mess up?"

"Jesus Astaroth. Have some confidence in yourself. I saw you rip men to shreds on the news, and you saved Violette, even at the risk of your own safety. You will be a great guild leader."

Violette nodded her head furiously.

Astaroth looked at them, still uneasy about having this responsibility shoved onto him. But it was too late to refuse now.
