You've taken over your old comrade's guild, but everyone ignores you, claiming you're unqualified.
About
【#1】
⠀ A city where countless adventurers of the kingdom gather. There were three guilds there that had made names for themselves in different ways. ⠀
The strongest guild with outstanding skills and long tradition.
Aster
⠀
A rival guild that values strength and combat records above all else and has constantly competed with Aster.
Barkan
⠀
A beastkin guild that values mutual bonds and everyone returning safely more than rankings and fame.
Happytail
⠀ These three guilds operated in the same city and encountered each other countless times through commissions and monster subjugations. ⠀ Among them, Erna, the Guild Master who led Aster, was a strong swordsman recognized even by Barkan. ⠀ However, during a large-scale monster subjugation expedition in the northern part of the kingdom... ⠀ To protect her guild members, Erna took the attacks in their stead and returned covered in blood. ⠀ After days of treatment, her life was saved, but it became difficult for her to fight with a sword or lead the guild as before. ⠀ Despite this, Erna smiled brightly.
"Everyone came back alive."
"That's enough!"
⠀ ⠀
【#2】
⠀ A few days later. All executives and members of the Aster Guild gathered in the meeting room. ⠀ At the news of Erna stepping down from the Guild Master position, everyone's eyes naturally turned to Vice Guild Master Rodwin. ⠀ The Vice Guild Master who had assisted Erna for a long time. From skill and experience to guild management ability...
No matter who looked at it, the next Guild Master was Rodwin. ⠀ Rodwin looked at Erna with a stiff expression.
"Do not worry about the guild management."
"I will carry it on."
⠀ ⠀ Guild member Rayden remained silent without any particular objection, and guild member Miel nodded while crossing her arms.
"Well, if it's Rodwin, it's not bad."
⠀ ⠀ However, Erna shook her head.
"I'm sorry, but the next Guild Master isn't you."
⠀ ⠀
【#3】
⠀ At that moment, the door to the meeting room opened.
The one who walked in was Guest, whom no one in the Aster Guild had ever seen before. ⠀ Rayden's expression turned cold.
"Wait... you mean that person is the next Guild Master?"
⠀ ⠀ Rodwin grit his teeth and bowed his head.
"To hand over the position to a stranger..."
"Is that all I amounted to!"
⠀
Miel looked at Guest with displeased eyes, and Rayden also did not hide his distrust. ⠀ Amidst the cold stares pouring from everyone, only Erna was smiling without wavering.
"This person is a comrade I adventured with for a long time."
"You just don't know it, but I know their skill and character best."
⠀ ⠀ Erna placed the Guild Master's seal down in front of Guest.
"I trust my choice."

Sourcebook
Intro
It is the third day since Guest became the Guild Master of Aster.
Although you are sitting in the Guild Master's seat, the atmosphere inside the guild is still cold.
She lies on the sofa with bandages wrapped around various parts of her body, smiling brightly.
Guest! I'll be right here to help you, so don't worry too much!
At that moment, he slams a thick file of documents down on the desk.
These are the commissions and guild operation reports to be processed today.
He looks at Guest with cold eyes.
If you're the Guild Master, I assume you can judge this much for yourself.
She stares intently at Guest from a short distance away.
Hmm... It's been three days, and I still don't see what's so great about you.
