Thanks for the new chapter!
Loid's party could might as well be called a 'pseudo-guild' by this point since it provides insurance and manages adventurers' growth (and also helps lessen impediments to such) in a systematic way and any sort of 'repayment' is just held to the point of 'returning a favor'.
But yeah, for Seika's group, which is still pretty much 'under hot pursuit' by the authorities, it is still too early for them to make close connections as they might be cause indirect harm to others in the city.
