⌜Chapter 31⌟

There's this thing that became a tradition for the Iceforge Guild but it was well known that Guild Master Ice likes to meet people who want to enter the guild, because Entering the Iceforge guild has never been easy.

(A/N: Shortened the Name 'Iceinmyveins' to 'Ice')

Just because they want to enter doesn't mean they will be able to, they went to a lot of tests and screening, and that was just the entry test, and just because they finished the test doesn't mean they are already part of the guild.

Because the ones who tested them were just members of the guild, the one who has full control over the guild is none other than Guild Master Ice, his final decision is if you can enter or not despite taking all the early tests and screening.

It was also the reason why Iceforge guild was different from other big guilds that have corruption inside, simply put, Guild Master Ice is the absolute leader, there is no such thing as Sub-leader or Elders, just secretaries, and members.

Right now, hundreds of players gathered around the hall of the Iceforge Guild Base, all of them were quiet and waited patiently, some talked in low voices but it was nearly noticeable.

One of the players who joined today is Silica, her hair is light brown and tied into two tails by red ribbons, as well as two red ring baubles, she has red eyes, she wore a yellow robe with a dagger and pouch strapped to her waist at the back, a silver breastplate and pauldrons, brown leather gloves with metal bands, black shorts, and yellow boots. Afterward.,

And she is smol.

Silica is very excited today as she was able to pass the tests of Iceforge Guild, it was the only guild that was willing to accept her, a kid, they didn't discriminate and just looked at her as a fellow player.

She was happy that she chose this guild, but there was still a final test that she has to go through to finally join the guild, she was very anxious as she will also be able to meet the new legendary player, Guild Master Ice of the Iceforge guild.

Her reason for joining this guild was actually just protection but seeing how warm the members of this guild were, if possible, she also wanted to help kids like her.

"Guild Master Ice has arrived"

She heard the loud announcement of a player, everyone immediately sat up straight and turned their heads towards the door of the halls, they all waited to stare at the door where they heard the announcement like it was going to melt any minute now.

*Creak!

But to break their expectations, the door that opened was at the opposite side, they all turned their heads and looked at the door that opened but there was no one that came in.

*Creak!

Then the door from behind suddenly opened making them turn their heads once again.

"Where are you guys looking?"

They suddenly heard a voice then when they turned their heads towards the podium, Guild Master Ice was already standing there with a smile on his face.

They just now realized that they have been trolled by the guild master, but none dared to complain, they just laughed a little.

"Well, it's good that you liked my prank, anyway, welcome to the final test, you guys won't have to do anything, just come towards me, one by one, and I will tell you if you can join or not"

It was but a simple test but for the players who wanted to join, it was the most nerve-wracking, because just a single word from the guild master will tell their fate of joining the Iceforge guild, if he said no, then they can't join the guild, a simple but ruthless test.

Silica looked around and saw the nervous faces of the other players, she also became nervous, she became restless as the test started, one by one, the players in the front started lining up in front of Guild Master Ice.

"You can join"

The voice of Guild Master Ice resounded and the player who was in front couldn't help but cheer loudly, Guild Master Ice then handed the player a badge making him officially part of the guild.

Soon, players started getting judged by Guild Master Ice, and there are already some players who were rejected, they can only slump their shoulders and leave the guild, there are some violent ones but who was the one they were trying to fight?

Iceinmyveins, the undefeatable player in the monthly tournament, with a swing of his sword, the violent players were sent flying away, then was later taken by the guild members nearby to throw them out of the guildhall.

It was then, Silica's turn, standing in front of Guild Master Ice, she felt like her legs were frozen as she wasn't able to step forward, she was just scared being rejected, when she was finally able to find a guild that was friendly to kids like her, she doesn't like that, thinking about these things made her scared to step in front.

"Its okay, nothing bad will happen"

It was then a voice resounded on her ears, it was warm, and made her felt safe, she turned her head and looked at the smiling handsome face of Guild Master Ice, unknowingly, she overstepped and tripped towards Guild Master Ice.

"Ah!"

*Catches~

"Now, now, be a careful young lady"

Guild Master Ice said, Silica just realized what happened and she blushed, Guild Master Ice helped her and let her stand on her own, she then stepped back to the place they were supposed to stand with a blush on her face.

"What is your name?"

"S-Silica"

"Hmm... you are all good, You can join"

Guild Master Ice's voice resounded and she looked up at him thinking she misheard.

"Really?"

"Yeah, welcome to the guild Silica, let's work together from now on"

Guild Master Ice's smile was like the sun in her cloudy life, for the first time she felt like she could rely on someone.

"Yes!"

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Sorry for the dramatic scene, but Silica is a very good character, though, I am not going the harem route I think, I'm still going for Sinon, MC is not a lol-.

Wait, Sinon is also underage... okay... easy there my friend's let's talk this out, get that phone away!
