Valeria remained seated across from Sage, examining the document he had placed before her.
The proposal was straightforward. As a newly promoted Platinum Adventurer, she possessed the qualifications necessary to establish and lead an officially registered Adventurer Team.
Such an organization would operate within the Guild's existing regulations while retaining considerable independence over its membership, internal arrangements, and chosen missions.
