alice spoke "blake calm down! "
blake replied "i-I'm sorry.. "
after a moment of silence, blake calmed down and pearl explained to blake about his mana.
"blake, your mana is nature less a-and you wouldn't be able to meet the conditions of unsealing a class, the only path you can take now is, the master path"
blake clenched his fist and grit his teeth then pearl continued "b-but as I said d-don't be disheartened, you can still be strong if you find a master to teach you a class, i-if you like, I can introduce you to some of the famous masters I know, how about it?
blake thought with disappointment (then how can I use the necklace, if I can't met the conditions)
blake spoke "fine, please ms. pearl introduced me to a master"
pearl smiled as she saw blake's determination and was glad that he hasn't given up unlike most of the people who fail in awakening.
pearl spoke "seeing you just been through an awakening, you must've been unfamiliar with seals and magic just still recently."
alice asked "awakening..? "
pearl replied "it's doing what you did just now for the first time. you both are actually quite talented, some can't even release there mana after years of training, not to mention doing it the first time, and just so you know more than 50% the population failed in awakening. "
blake replied "b-but if I don't have a class then I won't be able to join any guild"
pearl "d-don't worry their will be a guild that accepts you, though the big guilds won't, alice can vouch for you, if they get to know alice's mana, then they'll glady rake her in no matter what. "
(though the criticism and discrimination against natureless mana..)
blake spoke "but we only have 10 silver coins, we can't live if we don't find a job soon and we don't know anyone we trust here."
alice spoke "it's fine blake, you can rely on me for now, till you learn a class. "
pearl spoke "so you two are runaways?!"
alice and blake glanced awkwardly at each other before blake answered " a y-yeah"
facepalm*
sigh*
pearl spoke "then would you like to live with me for the time being?"
alice spoke "can we..? "
blake spoke "we appreciate the concern but we wouldn't want to trouble you ms. pearl"
pearl replied "t-there's no trouble at all my house is just upstairs there's still two vacant room so it's fine.. "
pearl continued "besides, you wouldn't want to sleep on the street right and risk being captured by slave merchants, also with me, you won't even need to worry about food~. "
alice and blake thought about it.
(she's right)
blake spoke "then will be in your care ms. pearl~"
pearl replied "geez~, why do you insist on calling me ms, I'm still 20 you know and by the looks of it I'm just 2 years older"
alice asked "then pearl can we read all the books here for free while we're here? "
pearl replied "ah of course you're very welcome to do so, but you will have to pay if you want to read magic book and martial art manuals, since they're my primary source of income hehe~"
