    It's his job because he has made it his job. His very behavior revealed that explicitly. Fran doesn't give a damn about his job, nor does great many other adventurers, I bet. From Fran's pov, the dude is someone trying to hold her back and slow down her progress toward her dream. All she needs is the sword.

    It's her business. She's the kind of person who rushes forward and subjects herself to deadly dangers to grow stronger. She would be dead without Teacher, but she has it, so that's it.

    They can be worried about her and push forward, but they should have advanced rapidly anyway, Fran or no Fran. The guild is a collection of independent entrepreneurs, who decide for themselves what they are doing. Sure, it's humane to try to look after someone, but at the end of the day, they are all responsible for themselves and have got no one but themselves to blame if they meet an unhappy ending.

    They knew she had already earlier wiped out an army of goblins, alone, saving that group of adventurers she sent back to give the report, while Fran herself remained to slaughter the goblins.

    It was their decision to make haste, to chase after Fran. They could have as well progressed normally, at whatever snail's pace was their plan, and leave Fran to deal with Fran's problems, since it was Fran who decided to leave everyone behind. That would have been the more responsible choice, but since they didn't do that, I reckon they didn't actually risk much, contrary to your estimation.

    Experience makes a bigger difference than you're making it out to be. Fran, cute as she is, is rushing too fast toward her dream. Even Teacher has pointed it out to her. Fran has great instincts, but she lacks the experience to meet her full potential and the way she rushes cost her her hands as the most concrete example. She panicked, froze from the shock, and nearly died.

    We've seen how the contrast of how Donadrond fights when he gets surprised by an opponent's strength.

    This is some DPS > Healer bullshit mentality and the same shitty rationale behind it.
