章 362: Is This Really Alright?

Tanaka widened his eyes in surprise at hearing this.

"Give up…"

"Yes, please give up on this job request. And, Sensei, for the drawing that you've already completed, I shall pay you for it… No, I shall even pay for all the drawings that you should have done and didn't complete yet."
