Chapter 131 - Choosing A Guild {Bonus 2\/2}

{Check the comments of chapter 129 to see what Olivia looks like}

"Y-You! You have Sin too! You are half-dwarven! You only half humans! Y-y-y-you!

" She pointed at me accusingly, but I did not pay her quivering hand any heed. Instead, I was looking towards the door where there just happened to be a man followed by a dozen armed men coming towards us.

'I can always just use my lightning of absolution spell to boost my power to the Knight rank and kill her if I need to, but that man over there not even in the Gaseous rank' My frown deepened when I saw him reach out for the handle.

'Maybe I'll finally have to use it... At least she tamed...'

*Creak*

"Miss Pandora! I have co-

" The man who just entered froze the moment he felt his foot against something as he tried to step forwards. He quickly looked down with a frown just to see the receptionist, who also happens to be one of his mistresses, on the floor drenched with cold sweat.

The man kept looking down at the pleading eyes of the woman that he sees as nothing but a toy. His frown deepened a little more as he looked between the two of us as if he was trying to contemplate something.

His sandy-colored hair kept ruffling over his forehead every time she looked between us. His red-orange eyes seemed to penetrate my soul every time he looked at me, yet for some reason even with this happening, I knew he could not see my soul, and even if he could, he would be seeing my normal yellow golden one.

"What do you want?

" My patience had finally run out.

"What happened here?

" He asked, just for me to shrug and point upwards. His eyes widened at seeing all the skills, but when he saw that I could use both magma and lightning, his eyes widened even more.

"Prideful? Humiliator of Deities?

" he muttered to himself.

'I think you broke them' Olivia laughed through the mind-link

'maybe I did...'

"Sorry for my insolence young Miss. I had come over here to welcome you, but now I have a different offer. As the first son of the mayor of this city, I'd like to ask your hand in-

"

"No

" He was cut off before he could even finish his sentence.

"W-what... WHY!? I am the strongest in the city! I can give you wealth and power!

" he tried to bargain

"You think I don't already have those things? Now let me go and do my next tests

" I waved him off

"YOU DON'T HAVE TO! I can just give you the card right now! What classification are you?

"

"Magic swordsman

"

"MAGIC SWORD**AN!

" He shouted while trying to calm down his shivering hand

"GOD FUCKING DAMNIT STOP SHOUTING EVERY 5 FUCKING SECONDS YOU LITTLE SHIT!

" I roared, making him shut up and stare at me.

"CARD!

" I extended my hand which he reluctantly put the card on before retracting it.

'C rank straight away?' I couldn't help but become awed. I had thought that I would need to start at G rank, but to think I would be able to skip 3 letters and become a C rank straight away as informed from the giant letter C on the right-hand side of the card.

"Will you now think about my p-

"

"No. Don't want, Don't care. Leave now

" I shooed him off while grabbing Olivia by the arm.

"Wait, miss!

" He grabbed my arm. I was not initially pissed at this, however...

*

"HOW DARE HE TOUCH US

"*

*

"PATHETIC HUMAN DARE FILTHY US WITH HIS DI-

"*

*

"-SGUSTING HANDS!?

"*

*

" RIP HIS ARMS OUT

"*

*

" TORTURE HIM

"*

Slowly but surely, the urge to tip out the arm that had just touched me grew by the second. I looked at the hand like one would look at a piece of dog ** on the side of the road. Pure disgust. My eyes made it feel like his who existence was being condescended on. It made him feel weak, pathetic, and most importantly, insignificant.

"Ungrasp my hand you filthy swine

" My voice was low, but it carried the weight of a mountain. His being at the same Power Level as I would usually mean that we were equal in strength, but in this case, not even he could move under my gaze. The only thing his body wanted to do was follow my order, and it had abided by it respectfully.

'What the hell' He and the woman under him thought at the same time.

"Now if you'll excuse me, I and my friend here will get going. Don't you dare follow us and tell your incompetent father to raise his children better. If I was a father, I would not be too happy about finding my sons **ing every woman they meet, would I?

" My last words were said with a soul-shaking glare that made even the woman on the ground feel weak in my presence.

'Is this the power of pride?' She gulped in fear. The whole time she was looking at me, she felt like she could see an illusory crown above my head with an equally terrifying aura terminating me. Yes, it might have been a product of her imagination, but the fear she felt was real.

Outside of the hall, I and Olivia walked together towards the exit where the man who had been leading us here had been waiting for our return to take us to the recruitment center, where we would be able to choose what guild to join.

'You could have been a little nicer' Olivia remarked using out mind-link

'If you want to hook up with him, just say the word and he will let you I replied sternly

'I never sai-'

'I know you didn't say it, but you somehow implied it, even if you didn;t mean to. Being nice to a person like that is a green light to them, and they will immediately take advantage of that green light to woo you in.'

"Miss! Are you done here?

" The man asked when we finally reached the door

"Take us immediately

" I commanded coldly, making him feel a shiver godown his spine.

"YES S-SIR!

" he staggered and I walked, but Olivia seemed to be the only one who realized he had just called me a sir, yet she snickered to herself silently I did not tell me.

Eventually, we reached the guild but I had a question I wanted to ask before that.

"By the way, is it possible to hide the skills on my card? I'd rather not have people know all my skills, you know?

" I asked with an approachable smile

"Yes, young mistress. However, that can only be done after you join a guild. Right now when you enter, I advise you to look at the leaflets first before asking to join anyone of the guilds. Each guild leader is rumored to be at the Imperial knight rank or higher, so it would be much better for you not to catch their attention without the protection of another guild. He bowed politely.

"I see. Thank you for the information.

" I was about to walk off, but I realized that the man had helped us a lot so I decided to reward him a little.

"Here

" I threw 10 gold coins at him before leaving, however, his expression went from a daze to panic as he shouted

"B-but MISS! I cannot take this much! I was just doing my job

"

"Shut up and take it

" I barked making him cower back a little.

"Alright bye~

" I waved him off, forcing him to walk away from my line of sight.

"That's better. Let's go now, Olivia

"

However, the moment we both walked into the hall, we had already had our masks on. Juilam had done some minor repairs on mine, and since Olivia would be with me most of the time, he chose to give her one too. However, it had seemed that even with the masks that were embedded with dozens of runes that would make us less noticeable, our clothing did not help.

While my mask was still the same pitch-black mast with 3 crack-like lines coming from the eyes to the sides of the mask, Olivia's was also black but had orangy-red pattern lines going down to the bottom of the mask instead

'I need to buy new clothes' I sighed deeply before looking around.

The place looked like a large hall with many desks and stools everywhere. There were people with leaflets and posters standing around, seemingly trying to poach their next victim, and by the victim, I mean anyone who is forced to join their **ty organizations usually out of pity or being extremely incompetent.

The floor and walls were made out of wooden tiles while the lights that were made out of magic crystal shone brightly down on the place.

There were many desks, some as small as a table with one or two people standing around it. while others were as big as a stage with an extravagant design and a multitude of workers working on it.

To be precise, there were 8 different stage-like booths, all extravagantly designed in some way shape, or form. They are all different. Each one looks different from the other, an example being the 'Reapers' guild that had their entire booth designed with bones and skulls what I'm guessing is either monsters, beasts, or their enemies. Nice way to scare the new recruits off.

Only 5 of them actually looked like they were action guilds while the others seemed like they were merchant, forgemastering, and even alchemy guilds.

I swiftly walked forwards with all eyes on us, dodging and swerving past anyone who was trying to con me into their guilds.

Guilds were split into different ranks, from D to S. However, there are 5 guilds across the entire empire that are always considered Elite-Ranked guilds. They only accept the people with the most potential, and one of them was actually the reapers guild.

'I have to choose between these 5 huh...' I looked across the place, looking at all 5 booths one after the other. Others seeing me do this immediately backed off since they knew what would happen if they had tried to woo me into their guild now, and it would not be good for them or their guild.

'Which one are you thinking on joining?' Olivia asked

'I don't know yet, but we will find out once we know the benefits of joining each one' I replied while narrowing my eyes at one of the guilds called the

"Broken Crusaders

" guild.
