There was only silence that filled the area after Lin Fan said this.
Feeling the aura that ca from Lin Fan, this rcenary group couldn't help feeling fearful of him since they knew that they couldn't beat him in a fight.
But before anything could happen, there was a person that ca over and gave a clap that broke the silence.
After everyone's attention had been drawn by her, she suddenly said with a smile, "Alright, let's leave this matter here."
When the people who had been watching saw who it was that ca over, so of them clicked their tongues like their fun had been ruined, but they didn't keep looking in this direction anymore. However, there were also those that felt that this developnt was more interesting since they knew who this woman that ca over was.
The rcenary group who had tried to start sothing with Lala saw this person as well and felt much more confident.
The leader of the group ca forward and pointed at Lin Fan while angrily saying, "Leave it at that? This man has insulted the rcenary Guild by threatening us rcenaries and you want to leave it at that? I demand that we receive compensation from him!" Then after saying this, his eyes turned to Lala with a lewd look as he said, "If she's willing to co along with us, then we can call it even."
Lin Fan narrowed his eyes when he heard this and a cold look appeared.
As this happened, the leader felt a chill run down his spine which forced him to take another step back.
The woman who had co over gave a sigh and then shook her head before saying, "Young master Lin, please don't mind them. These people are well known thugs that have caused problems before, please just leave them to ."
,m Lin Fan was surprised to hear the woman addressing him directly, but hearing the sincere tone in her voice, he chose to listen to her. After all, it wouldn't be good for him to cause too much of a scene here.
The woman gave a nod to Lin Fan after seeing his reaction before walking up to the leader of the rcenary group. Her eyes swept over him before saying, "Compensation? Shouldn't you be the ones paying compensation?"
The leader of the group was taken aback when he heard this, but then he ca back to his senses as he asked, "What do you an? We are rcenaries that are registered with the rcenary Guild and you're protecting an outsider like this?"
Then his voice turned a bit dark as he said, "Is the rcenary Guild certain that they want to act like this? If this was known, it would be a large blow to the rcenary Guild's prestige."
The woman shook her head and then said with a helpless smile, "Who told you that they were outsiders?"
The leader of the group was once again taken aback by this as he said in a stunned voice, "What do you an?
The woman turned to raise her hand to gesture at Lin Fan before saying, "This young master Lin here is also a registered rcenary, but unlike you all, he's a B Rank rcenary." Then after a pause, she said in a cold voice, "He's not soone that D Rank rcenaries like you could compare to."
The three mbers of the rcenary group all looked at Lin Fan with shock as the leader stuttered, "B…B Rank rcenary? He's…a B Rank rcenary?"
They knew that they had ssed up.
Just like in any organization, there was a hierarchy.
D Rank rcenaries weren't considered that low on the hierarchy, but they were certainly low when compared to B Rank rcenaries.
For a D Rank rcenary to go against a B Rank rcenary like this was like a manager going against the departnt chief. There was no doubt that there would be consequences.
The rcenary group naturally knew this, so the leader's mind quickly turned before he said, "I don't believe that this man is a B Rank rcenary at all, how can you prove this?"
This was the only straw that he could grasp at this point.
While it was a long shot, as long as Lin Fan didn't have his rcenary License with him, he wouldn't be able to prove anything. At that point, he was free to say whatever he wanted since there was no proof.
But it was too bad that he really was just grasping at straws.
The woman said, "You're doubting my words? The words of a rcenary Guild official?"
The leader ignored this and said, "As long as there's no proof, who knows what's the truth. You could be…"
Before he could finish his words though, Lin Fan gave a cough to cut him off, drawing everyone's attention to him.
Lin Fan casually pulled out a rectangular thing from his pocket and held it up for everyone before saying, "Is this what you're looking for?"
When they looked at the thing in Lin Fan's hand, they imdiately revealed different expressions.
The woman revealed a smile while the rcenary group revealed looks like they were dying. After all, the thing that was in Lin Fan's hand was his rcenary License.
This was a rectangular piece of silver that had so writing on it.
Once a rcenary beca a B Rank rcenary, the rcenary License that they received changed from the normal piece of paper to this piece of engraved silver. It was also said that once one beca an A Rank rcenary, their rcenary License would turn into a piece of gold.
Lin Fan had received this B Rank rcenary License during his period of earning money.
With all the B Rank missions that he was taking, he had earned enough credit to receive the official rank up to beco a B Rank rcenary.
Once this B Rank rcenary License was brought out, there was nothing that the rcenary group could say.
The leader wanted to say sothing, but the woman cut him off by saying, "Since your one argunt has been countered, I don't think there's a need to keep this going anymore. From this mont forth, you and your group are kicked out of the rcenary Guild and your licenses have been suspended." Then after a pause, she added almost as if she had suddenly thought of it, "You will also lose the right to apply for another license for the rest of your lives."
The final words she said were like the final nail in the coffin for this rcenary group.
They didn't want to give up and had wanted to argue a bit more, but the woman snapped her finger and had so staff pull them out.
After that was taken care of, she waved her hand at Lin Fan and Lala to follow them before heading into the back of the rcenary Guild.
Lin Fan didn't follow right away as he looked at Lala, but seeing the look that she gave him telling him that she was alright, he followed behind this woman.
This woman led them to the second floor of the rcenary Guild and to an empty room. Only after the door was closed did the expression on her face change, but it changed in a way that Lin Fan didn't expect.
Instead of having a serious look, she ca over to Lala with a worried look and asked, "Lala, are you alright? Don't mind those idiots."
Lala had been shaken at first, but after Lin Fan had taken her by the shoulder, she had already started to recover. Once they ca to this room, she was already back to her normal self.
She said to the woman, "Big sister, I'm alright."
Then she turned to Lin Fan and said, "Lin Fan, this is big sister Xia i. She's the head receptionist here in the Inferno City rcenary Guild branch."
Lin Fan was confused as he asked, "Head receptionist?"
Lala explained, "The head receptionist is the one who manages the receptionists and hires new receptionists, so unlike the normal receptionists, they are considered officials of the rcenary Guild who actually have power. As a side note, big sister Tian Tian is the head receptionist back at our branch."
Xia i gave a nod before saying, "Little sister Lala, Tian Tian, and I used to work together when we were rcenaries, that's why we're so close."
Lin Fan fought back the urge to ask the question in his mind which was pertaining to their age since he knew that would be the worst question to ask in this situation.
Xia i didn't notice this as she said to Lala, "Little sister, I already heard about what happened with your family. Are you alright?"
Lala revealed a sad look, but then she turned to look at Lin Fan before turning back with a smile on her face, "I'm fine now."
Xia i was surprised to see this smile at first, but then she looked at Lin Fan with a smile as well as she said, "It seems like you're quite the man. I'm even interested in you." Then after a pause, she said with a sigh, "Well, it's too bad that you're already little sister Lala's man."
Lala gave a chuckle before saying, "Big sister, are you interested?"
Xia i was surprised to hear this before asking, "You don't mind?"
Lala shook her head and gave a sigh before saying, "I would, but he already had other girls before , so what else could I say?" Then she revealed a smile to say, "Well, he's strong enough and good enough to us that we don't mind."
Xia i was once again surprised, but then she changed the topic by saying with a cough, "Putting that aside, I have so information that Tian Tian wanted to pass to you."
