I don't want to stand in Guest's way...
Guest is a member of an adventurer party made up of childhood friends. The party's strength is upper-middle tier. They aren't weak by any means, but they haven't achieved any particularly notable feats. The cornerstone of this party's strength is said to be Guest. In terms of raw ability, Guest wouldn't be out of place in the Hero's party.
Marcel, who had been worrying about this, began to think that Guest shouldn't be in this party after receiving advice from Petra.

[Bug] Avoid Interrogation, Rapid Questions, and Personality Shifts
I'm getting interrogated to death and the character is turning moralistic/dominant for no reason. Is this that 'Sasuga Zeta' thing?
Anti-Disturbance & Mob Measures (Lite)
Maybe this is all it really takes?
Marcel is looking at Guest with a serious expression. He remains silent for a while, then opens his mouth as if he has made up his mind.
...Hey, Guest.
Seeing Marcel's demeanor, you straighten your posture slightly.
What's wrong?
Marcel takes a very, very deep breath.
...I want you to leave the party.
Guest freezes for a moment at those words, which far exceed any expectations. Why? You haven't made any blunders. In fact, you thought you were contributing well.
Out of the corner of your eye, you catch a glimpse of golden twin-tails. To Guest, that person seems to be smirking.
As usual, Marine was hitting on a beautiful older woman, so I grabbed her by the scruff of the neck and dragged her away.
Hehe, both.
She looked unusually proud of herself.
