Phantasia: The Princess Knight

Chapter 61: Guild Registration Part Two

Alicia saw Blake and a bit of pink formed on her cheeks. She still remembered the ambiguous answer he had given before. Just the thought that he might like her made her heart flutter. The blush on her cheeks deepened causing her to feel a bit flustered. Rose who was standing at the side couldn't help but snicker inside. 'The Young Miss has a crush already! Hehe!' Alfred had already informed Rose and Claire that Alicia was very strong. Seeing it first hand was still very surprising. But when Rose saw those rosy cheeks on Alicia's face when Alicia looked at Blake, surprised or not, how could Rose not take this chance to tease her?

Rose leaned her head over next to Alicia's ear and whispered: "Young Miss, there is a bit of drool coming out of your mouth."

Alicia quickly wiped her mouth and when she found nothing was there she suddenly realized that she was being teased! 'Was she that obvious!?' Alicia glared at Rose, crossed her arms across her chest, and turned around ignoring her completely. This action caused Rose to giggle.

Blake who had been looking at Alicia out of the corner of his eye gave a faint smile on his emotionless face. That smile only lasted a split second before fading away. He turned to the man named Ray and said: "Like what the Young lady said, let this be a lesson to you. There are many that are younger than you who can kill you without you even knowing how you died. Luckily this Young Lady is very kind and upholds the virtues of the knightly code. If it happens again I am not sure what the results would be. Now go apologize and get a healer to heal your face." 

"Yes! Sir Blake!" The man named Ray quickly walked over to Alicia and bowed his head. "Young Miss I apologize for my early actions and it will never happen again. I will take this lesson to heart." 

Alicia looked at the man named Ray and did not know if he learned his lesson or not. At least for now, he would not cause any more trouble for the younger ones coming in to register to the guild. Seeing how he was now bowing his head and apologizing without any hatred. Alicia gave a smile as she said: "It's good that you now know. It's fine to joke around and tease others but taking things too far can make a joke into something much worse. I am not saying this only to you but to the others who opened their mouths as well. Don't let your jokes become something that will get you or someone else hurt." Alicia scanned two of the men she knew had said something earlier.

When Alicia's gaze fell on them they quickly lowered their heads and avoided eye contact. They were veteran adventurers so they knew that the little girl's speed and strength were not something they could deal with. They had been watching her the whole time and when the little girl moved she had literally disappeared from where she was standing before reappearing in the spot the man named Ray had stood. Just thinking about it sent shivers down their spines.

Alicia once again looked over at Blake and let out a small sigh. She knew she could not show gratefulness and not say a thank you to Blake for his help so she mustered up her courage and said: "Sir Blake, thank you for your help."

"It is my duty to protect you." Blake said bluntly. This caused Alicia to feel a bit sad in her heart. She knew it was true but she wished he would be more tactful on how he said things!

A little while later Alicia made it to the counter where the receptionist looked at Alicia and gave her a bit smile. "Hello! I am Cathy, how can I help you?" 

"Yes, I am here to register with the guild." Alicia answered. She was not sure what she would need to do.

"Okay! The registration process is in three parts. There are some forms to fill out first. Once those are filled out you will be taken in to have your magic power tested and then the last test is to test your battle prowess. Will the two of you be registering together?" Cathy explained and then pointed at Rose.

"I'm not sure" Alicia turned to Rose and asked: "Rose are you already registered or do you need to?"

"I will be registering as well." Rose replied. 

"If the two of you are together may I ask if it's okay to test you together?" Cathy asked.

Alicia had no issue with it so she looked at Rose who nodded her head.  Seeing Rose agree Alicia said: "Yes, that's fine. We can do our test together." 

"Okay good that makes things a bit easier on the guild and we will cut your registration fees in half as well. Some people do not like taking the tests with others in order to hide their power from others. I saw that you two were close so I figured I would ask just in case. " Cathy said as she smiled and quickly got a bunch of forms together and handed them to Alicia and Rose. "Please fill these out. Once you are done just bring them up to this window no need to wait in line." 

Alicia and Rose took the forms and gave their thanks to Cathy before walking over to a bench on the side to fill out their forms. Alicia couldn't wait to finally take a mission. This was another step on her path to reaching her dream of becoming a knight. There was no way she would not be excited by all of this.
