I ended our conversation in the meeting room. I run in a hurry to go to the lobby.
"I must hurry up. I hope Clarisa is still waiting for me."
Our conversation is taking more time than I thought. Well, at least I got some information about Athena. One of the 13 representatives.
"it looks like I'm not too late"
Lucky, the receptionist is still not close yet. The lobby already becomes so quiet. There's not much adventure in here, which is different from before the sun is near down. I can understand why this place became so quiet.
"excuse me, I want to pick up my result test."
In the receptionist corner, there is only Clarisa left there. Her friend may be already gone since is already this late. I feel bad for her since she waiting for me.
"Ooo, you're… Galen, right? You want to pick up the result and ID card?"
Clarisa asked me.
"yes, I want to pick up my result and ID card."
"I have been waiting for you, you know. Is already this late, this place is near close so I have asked myself are you will come or not?"
She somehow looks dissatisfied while her palm touches her cheek. I hope she is not angry.
"I'm sorry. I have some business to do… next time I will not repeat it again."
I apologized to her since she looks angry to me. My conversation with Rudy, Arsya, and jade is taking too long.
"Please do okay! Next time I will not tolerate it."
"Yes, I will remember it. If I late again, I don't mind treat the beautiful lady in front of me for some dinner, how about it? haha"
I try to flirt with Clarisa. I give her a little lip service in hope that she forgives me. This is the first time I flirt with a woman. 5000 years ago never done this before. I just know how to do it from the movie that I saw on the internet at that time.
"oh my, are you try to seduce me? hahaha. Well, I'm glad that you invite me. then next time if you late I will hold to what you say okay?"
Her face looks are still looks composed. There's no embarrassing side from her. She is just like a pro who can handle this situation, but I wonder why she agreed to it easily? I just thought maybe she will refuse it or have some excuse. Well, it's not like I will stay in this town for a long time, so maybe we will never meet again.
"No worries. Then how about my result?"
Back to the main topic...
"Okay. This is your test result."
Clarisa brought out some sheet paper and a card in the drawer behind her. She gives me the paper. Looks like she wants me to read the result first.
"Mmmmm…"
I try to read it. Even though the alphabet at this time somehow different I can still read it. I was studying like hell to understand it when I still in the village 3 months ago. The result that was written in the paper, is about my magic power and my strength.
"oh by the way, galen for the remaining monster that bought by the guild, we will finish the counting the reward tomorrow so I hope you can come in here before you have your mission"
Clarisa reminded me of my reward
"oh yeah yeah"
I didn't interested in any of that money. the village already give me plenty money so I didn't are about it. I continue read the paper that she gave.
What is written in the paper is the description of the power that I display, before. It's like a recommendation letter, to summarize it all, In here is said that I recommended to mastering strengthening magic and healing magic. The guild thought my strength is more impressive than my magic so they want me to master the strengthening magic and healing magic. I can become a brawler that can solo on a monster or have the party and become the party front liner. I can take the damage while I can heal myself, I can become the toughest brawler, it's pretty interesting that the guild recommend me this role, It's like I become a leeroy Jenkins who charged at an enemy without a second thought. The guild also recommended me the quest that I can take. I can take the quest if the quest is about normal monsters until advanced rank monsters. And I permitted too by the guild to subjugated calamity/mythical beast if there's that quest, but they will not allow me if I'm alone they will allow me if I have a party and in the party at least there's one or two S rank Class. This result that Clarisa gave to me is like A recommendation letter and advice from the guild. It was really convenient that the guild gives their recommendation to the adventure. I can understand why they need a test and the recommendation like this to the adventure.
"I have finished reading this, thank you. Should I give it back or I keep it"
I asked Clarisa. This recommendation letter is important I want to confirm it.
"you can keep it. Our branch already has the copy so it's not a problem for us. Oh, and if you lost it, it's okay you can ask the copy to another guild. You just need to show your ID card and then they will make the recommendation letter again"
Said clarisa while she gives me another piece of information and gives me the ID card.
"oh, so the card can be used like that too, huh?"
"yes, it can."
I looked at the card. In the front of the card, there's information about my name, my class rank, blood sign, the registered branch guild, and the name of the guild master in it. In the back of the card, there's a measurement score from the training hall before and a recommendation on what the quest I can take.
"Ooo I get it. I understand now. I just need to show this card right?"
With this much information, there's no way I didn't understand. The value of this ID card is big, I should keep it safe.
"yes"
"if this card already contains the information like in the letter. then, why did you give it the letter again?"
If I know the card is like this then I don't need this letter. The card is already convenient, after all.
"That letter is just for reassurance. If you lose your ID card you can use that letter to change it, although there will be a penalty if you lose your ID Card."
"penalty, huh? Well, okay I understand now. Thank you for the information Clarisa, I already understand. I will take my leave now, it's already night and I don't want to make you have more work than this"
"So you understand, huh? Thank you for the consideration then, haha"
"I will take my leave then, Excuse me"
"yes, good night"
"good night"
I walked out of the guild. It feels good to be said good night by the beautiful girl. for me, her beauty is the same like jade the difference is in their behavior. A, I forget rudy, jade, and arsya is waiting for me on the third floor, why did I even say good night if, in the end, I'm still in the guild… if I go back it will become more embarrassing…
"This will be awkward if go back in, isn't it? Sigh"
I make the sound of a sigh. Now, how can I go back but not being seen by her… should I wait for Clarisa to go back first or what? Maybe I will go back to my inn I'm sure jade will catch up to me.
"Ah shoot, I forgot... I didn't booking inn before I go to the guild place…"
Now what? This is the first time I have become really sloppy like this…
Then suddenly, someone poking me from behind. I turn around and find Arsya behind me.
"Arsya!"
I shout the name who poking me. Her timing is really great.
"Sorry for surprising you like that"
She apologizes to me, but she made an amusing face in front of me, it's like she holds back her laughter.
"No, it's okay. Since when you behind me?"
If she sees me when I try to seduce the receptionist I will be ashamed…
"not long. Maybe after you part ways with Clarisa…"
It looks like she didn't see it, fuhhh, save. Then…
"No, sorry if I lie, I have been seen you since when you read the recommendation letter. You look really focus, you even didn't notice me, so I just waiting for you in the corner. But to think that our esteemed master is trying to seduce our employer… haha."
My face became little pale, she saw it. I really feel ashamed, my dignity as their master is lost… aaa screw it, It's not like I'm their master is just how they call me. I'm just a normal boy, it's okay even if I try to seduce one or two girls.
"you saw it, huh? Hahaha is a shame, but how can I say? Boys will always be boys."
I tried to look composed even though in my mind and my heart feel really ashamed. If Arsya sees me embarrassed and she tells jade about it, I will lose my face in front of jade. After I underestimate her in front of Arsya and Rudy I'm sure she will make fun of me.
"haha, It's okay. I understand too, you know. We will use the backdoor, you want the thing to became not awkward, right?"
Fuhh, I'm glad that Arsya understands me…
"ah, Arsya…"
I call her.
"yes?"
"The matter about me flirting around in the lobby, please keep it secret from jade, okay? If she heard it, I'm sure she will make fun of me. Sighhh"
I made a big sound of sighhh. I just hope that Arsya didn't rattle it I just want to confirm it that's why I asked her to keep this matter a secret.
"fufu, it's okay I understand Galen. you can rest assured, I will not tell about it to anyone"
She really looks amused at me. I really can't read her. To me Arsya is someone who likes to mess around if she sees something amusing… but it looks like now she wants to keep it secret. It's not like I will just trust her just like that, but…
"is that so? Thank you…"
For now, I can just only trust her that she will not rattle that matter to jade.
We take the backdoor behind the building. The backdoor is limited to the employer guild only. But Arsya uses her concealment magic on me so I can't be seen by other employers. Her concealment magic is amazing. If I compared it to the concealment magic that the elder had cast on me, the concealment magic that Arsya cast is more superior than them. Arsya concealment magic is like you really disappear from the world you can't find it if you only using 5 senses. The only way you want to find it is by using your instinct. But your instinct must have been trained by magic again and again so that you can sense her. In my case, because I already trained magic with the elder and I have a great focus, I can somehow sense her. That's why I know before on the fourth floor that Arsya is watching me.
We make it to the meeting room without noticed by other people. We came, to the meeting room again.
