Thanks for the chapter!
MC really in for it now. Now not only does Sophie want him for her knights but is starting to develop interest in him personally as well considering he's talented and the only person in the area to understand her. Don't get why wants him as a commander as that involves training and commanding a group, handling paperwork for actions and supplies, and being recognized as the leader by his subordinates. Yet she's only seen him fighting alone with no indications he can lead a group or do clerical work.
Seems to be a lot of hooded figures wandering around. This one is different as has a black cloak with scales in front of a city in front of the sun so likely some high official while previous person was wearing purple and wanted to personally make mission requests rather than go through the guild.
