Fia, after hearing what Sally said, began to mumble slightly.
"I understand" She said suddenly, shaking her head.
"Anyway Sally, how about something?"
"What?" Sally asked, with a curious face, and a hint of innocence.
"How about becoming a hunter?"
Sally's face at that moment changed to surprise, she was not expecting a question. "I... I... I..." Sally also began to stammer in amazement, she did not know what to say.
After a few of Sally's wobbles, she put her right hand on her chest, and began to breathe with short pauses between one breath and the next, trying to calm down.
After a succession of breaths, suddenly a little saliva went down her throat making her cough, with her right fist she began to hit her chest and shortly after she stopped coughing. With tears in her eyes she notice Fia, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised she had a slight smile, she was trying to hold back a laugh.
Sally's cheeks puffed out slightly at the sight of Fia.
'What to do' Sally thought, the idea of becoming a hunter might seem good, but she was afraid of the consequences, she actually committed some crimes and was afraid of being thrown in prison. From a practical point of view it would be useful to her to look for money and look for her father, but from another point she was afraid of being arrested.
If she accepted she also had to be ready to submit to a captain if she wanted to survive, she could also not submit but her chances of survival would be lower.
Not to mention the fact that she doesn't know how to kill monsters, and she doesn't know how to fight well, this makes things partly more difficult, in addition to the fact that if she ends up in a team she wouldn't know how to collaborate with them.
There were a lot of factors, although most were negative, among those negative factors there were also some positive factors even if few.
Like becoming stronger, since she had been weak almost always since her birth, the thing she wanted was to become stronger, but not physically but rather psychologically.
Apart from becoming stronger, there was also the factor that she could explore the world. Since she was little she was always interested in exploring the world, if she became a hunter she had the opportunity.
Sally bit her lower lip lightly, but not very hard in fact no blood came out, she didn't know what to do, if she accepted she had to prepare for the dangers and the possible arrest, if she didn't accept she would most likely be arrested anyway.
She tightened her rags, raised her head with a determined look and said: "I want to become one."
Fia smiled, that smile is worth more than a thousand words to Sally.
Fia took Sally by the arm and dragged her towards the door. Surprised, Sally reacted in time to take the dagger, but she barely managed it.
Once out and placed on the teleportation circle the two arrived at the reception on the first floor.
The reception was always busy, there was a coming and going of hunters who confirmed missions, who deposited money, who asked for assistance.
Fia went to talk to a female receptionist, the woman had long straight black hair tied in a high ponytail, sapphire blue eyes, gentle and youthful features, the woman was wearing a white linen shirt with long sleeves, and a black vest with a small pocket, the receptionist also had two gold hoop earrings in her ears.
"I would like to have this girl take the entrance exam." Fia said pointing to Sally, who became slightly red due to embarrassment, the receptionist slightly rolled her sapphire eyes and smiled slightly.
From under the counter I pulled a sheet of paper. Basically that sheet was the form that parents had to sign to authorize their child, but there was a problem...
"She is an orphan, or rather she lost her mother, her father left" Fia said seeing the sheet and without even Sally's consent, the receptionist's face became slightly shocked but she kept a calm look, she apologized making a slight bow.
Shortly after she took out another sheet of paper, the sheet was the same as the other one but it was about who was an orphan.
The sheet lists several things.
First thing: the association takes responsibility for any crimes committed in the past, and you get immunity and therefore you cannot be arrested.
Second thing: a fixed salary that starts at 500 gold coins, and with the accumulation of credits the salary will increase.
Third thing: a provision of weapons, armor and artifacts plus the study of combat, study of monsters, and 20% discounts on libraries, armories, shops.
Fourth thing: A pass that does not expire valid for all places in the world.
Fifth thing: Free cures (minor or medium), prices of potions halved.
It was extremely advantageous! However, Sally was suspicious, after everything was explained to her she looked at the jet black haired receptionist with a dubious look.
The receptionist laughed lightly, her voice was graceful and princely, shortly after she said: "Don't worry, there's nothing underneath" Her voice was relaxing and calm.
Sally snorted.
The receptionist laughed again, but slightly, then she took out a black click pen, the pen was simple but two gold branches were going around the pen.
The receptionist indicated the place where to sign. Sally took the pen and at the place where to sign she wrote her name in a somewhat clumsy manner and with many erasures.
After the receptionist saw, she took out a mold and with a little force placed it on the paper. The mold in question was a sword pointing upwards with rays of light that could not be seen well in the mold, which illuminated the sword.
Once again Fia remembered that dream, she had the impression that that dream would haunt her for eternity. She sighed softly.
Shortly after the receptionist led Sally with Fia at her side to the first basement of the West wing, the floor for testing.
