The guild master stared at him for a second longer before muttering softly, "For what it is worth, you have the right to be arrogant."
If she had accomplished even half of what Thoren had done, her pride would have soared beyond reason.
She would have spread her fame across both the first and second floors while gathering countless subordinates beneath her banner.
The Abyss was dangerous enough already, and many awakeners desperately searched for powerful individuals they could rely on.
With such terrifying strength, many people would willingly kneel and pledge their loyalty to him without hesitation.
Yet, Thoren had done none of that.
After calming her emotions, she straightened her back slowly. Her previous arrogance and pride had completely vanished.
She might have been the guild master of one of the five strongest guilds, but before Thoren, she felt no sense of superiority whatsoever.
