Phantasia: The Princess Knight

Chapter 68: Starla

"Okay, let me go over everyone's final ranking. Although I say ranking this is what your actual battle prowess is and does not mean your actual guild rank. You will all start at F rank like everyone else." Grayson looked at everyone in the room. This time even Wendy had come back after being fully healed. Grayson cleared his throat and continued. "Cicily E rank, Wendy F rank, Slade E rank, Osborn E rank, Heath E rank, Oswin E rank, Ryder E rank, Starla C  rank, Rose C rank, and last Alica To be honest Alicia I think you can probably fight higher ranked monsters but the guild is not equipped with being able to test SS rank or SSS rank. So I can only give you an S rank evaluation. But I think you are at least SS rank or maybe even border line SSS rank personally. "

Grayson gave Alicia a smile before looking at the huge hole in the room. He gave out a sigh before turning back towards the group. "Alight the test ends here. Take these tokens and go back up front to get your guild identification." 

Everyone said their goodbyes and turned to leave. Grayson once again looked back at the huge crater in the floor as he mumbled to himself: "They won't make me pay for this right?"

Alicia along with Rose left the room and started walking towards the registration counter to get their guild identifications. "Wait!"

A voice rang out from behind Alicia causing her to turn around. She saw Starla running up behind her. Starla's hair bounced with every step causing her blue hair to ripple like an ocean wave.  "Yes?  Is something wrong Starla?"

"Are you really going to be taking the squire's test?" Starla asked. 

Hearing that question caused Alicia to form a huge smile on her face. "Yep! It is my dream to become a knight. I have been training to become a knight for a long time." Alicia did not say how many years since she had been training to be a knight in a sense since her previous life. 

Starla's eyes lit up as if she had found a messiah. "Then can you tell me how you became strong?" 

"Err..." Alicia suddenly had a shiver run down her spine just remembering that hellish training. "I can but I am not sure if you will be able to endure it. Why don't we do this, I plan to take out a mission right after getting my guild identification. Why don't you join me? We can talk about the training I went through and you  can tell me if you want to try it out or not." This was the only thing she could say because that training was very hard to cope with and She only survived because of her pure determination to become a knight. 

"Okay!" Starla had a smile bloom on her face as she happily grabbed Alicia's hand and pulled her towards the registration booth. 

Rose followed behind them with a smile on her face. "Young Miss has gotten herself a new friend." Although she said this she still nodded her head to an empty space in the corner of the guild hall. No one noticed as a figure stepped out of the shadows of said corner and disappeared. 'Although you come from the Wymane family, you still need to be checked out in case you are to cause harm to the Young Miss.'

Seeing Alicia and Starla coming up, Cathy gave a big smile as she said: "Congratulations! Give me a few seconds to finish processing your information then we will get your guild Identifications ready." Cathy quickly finished processing the three's information before taking out three metal credit card looking guild Identification cards. "Okay, all you need to do is drip a drop of your blood onto these cards. After which the cards will be bound to you and hold all your information. This includes your name, age, guild rank, guild contribution points, and current progress on missions. There is more information as well but you can look at that all later. Once again As a representative of the guild, I would like to congratulate you on joining the Adventurers Guild.  If you would like to take out a mission please head over to the mission board for F ranks." 

"Thank you, Cathy!" Alicia, Starla, and Rose all grabbed their new guild identifications. Alicia pricked her finger and dripped a drop of blood on to the guild card in her hand. The card lit up slightly before quickly dimming. When Alicia looked at her card there was all the information that Cathy had just said plus more. It recorded a lot of things like mission completion, failed missions, resources collected and even the number of demonic beast slain. Alicia found it quite surprising that so much information could be recorded but she wondered how it knew how many resources and demonic beasts she had slain. Not thinking too much into it Alicia shrugged her shoulders and said: "Alright let's go find a mission!"

The F rank board was rather big. Alicia and Starla could barely reach the bottom section of the board because of how short they were. Although Starla had it a bit better than Alicia since she was about two years older. "Young Miss what about this one?" Rose asked as she took down a mission from the board.

Alicia took the mission and started to read it. "Urgent help needed. Need an adventurer to help defend Brown village from demonic beasts. A pack of earth wolves keeps attacking the village every night." Alicia read through the mission and said: "This mission is perfect!"
