"It's fine, there's no need to apologize," Nolan said calmly. "They already found out anyway."
Indeed, every adventurer was silent. No one made a noise. Some quietly walked out of the guild building, while others continued their work as if nothing had happened.

He picked up the King Golem cores and set them down carefully. Ella examined them closely. "They're in very good condition… except this one is a little smashed," she said.

Ella and Celia laughed.
"Master, you're the greatest," Celia said warmly.
"I told her," Ella added. "Everything is worth about 500,000 coins."
"Good," Nolan replied. Ella went and packed the coins—500,000 gold coins—and handed them to Nolan.
