Chapter 135: Guild Membership Card (3)
\'It\'s like a psychological test. We are asked to answer the various decisions we have to make for each situation that arises...\' Elysia mumbled in her mind.
\'Just fill as you like, Ely. I\'ve never seen you fail a psychological test. This should be easy for you too.\' Elena checked the questions posed on paper for a moment.
\'Well, let\'s look at the first question... What would you do if you were in a precarious and dangerous situation that required you and your party to flee? But, when your party fled, one of your members fell and was about to be attacked by dangerous monsters? Answer along with the reasons and what you think at that time... Hmm...\'
\'It\'s that simple... Conquer the dangerous monsters and save the day! \'Elena cheered with a sophisticated answer.
\'Um, maybe we\'ll do that, but the aim of this test isn\'t that. Given the situation, we are in a state that really forces us to run away. What do we need to do? Well, if I answer like that... What do you think, Sister Elena?\' Elysia thought of the answer and passed it through memory.
\'En! That\'s perfect. I forgot that we are weak helplessly in the story. Just answer everything with the situation and solution that you think of now, Ely. I will help.\' Elena nodded in agreement.
\'Sure.\'
It was said to be a feasibility test that must be answered by individuals. Still, Elysia did not commit any fraud because Elena was her guardian angel who lived within her.
Elysia answered the ten questions listed on the paper in a relaxed and calm manner. Letters become syllables, and sentences become paragraphs. Elysia wrote several solutions to each problem with various conditions that might occur along with her decisions.
"Mr. Jacob, I\'m done. Please check it out." When she was done with that, she just returned the paper to Jacob.
"You\'re pretty quick at answering all of that, beautiful girl. Let me see hmm... Hum, hum... Hmm... Amazing and great! However, wait for your companions to finish their test first, okay?" Jacob checked each of the carefully written and thought-out answers.
With this, he could guess the personality of this beautiful girl who was like an elegant princess knight. She was kind and observant but tenacious in the face of reality. She even wrote down the worst case for each situation.
Just by looking at one answer to the first question and glancing at all the questions answered on the same principle, this girl was more than worthy of being an adventurer in the guild. Not! It was adventurers like this who were rare and desperately needed! Jacob exclaimed in his mind.
"Sure. Erm, just answer and relax, Lys. Don\'t be nervous like that." Elysia nodded and encouraged the girl next to her that glanced at her in awe.
"En! Wait a moment, I\'m almost done." Sylvia nodded then wrote down the final answer.
After that, she gave the paper to Jacob with confidence. She was not cheating or anything. She purely answered it all by herself.
"Hmm, interesting and simple. Although not enough, it is quite decent." The corner of his mouth twitched as he checked the answer from Sylvia\'s paper.
Jacob never thought, the mind of this girl who had grown so well still seemed so childish. However, she clearly could pass because it was still sufficient and feasible.
"So did I pass?" Sylvia asked to make sure. She believed her friend indeed passed just by looking at Jacob\'s expression, but for her paper, it was a bit vague.
"Wait a minute, okay, pretty girl? Your father isn\'t done yet."
"Well, father, are you finished? When you\'re done, give your paper to Jacob." Sylvia glanced at her father\'s paper. It was finished but left alone for unknown reasons.
"Hum, I\'m done. That\'s too easy." Dylan nodded with a smirk, then he folded his arms with a smug expression.
He didn\'t even need to think of solutions to all the problems. It was too easy for him with hundreds of years of experience on the battlefield.
"Alright, are you done with your paper too, Mr. Nalyd? Let me check it for a moment." Jacob picked up the only paper left on the table.
Not the answer one would expect from a great grown man, Jacob frowned. He then glanced at the cold and cruel father of a rather childish and honest daughter.
Weren\'t they too different? If it weren\'t for the slight resemblance in their face, he would definitely refuse to believe Aivlys was this man\'s daughter. Jacob wondered how this man had raised his daughter with such a personality.
"Umm... Mr. Nalyd. Can you explain each of your answers? Why, for every problem that may occur when you are on an adventure quest, there is only one similar answer?" Jacob smiled wryly and returned the answered paper to the writer.
"Huh? You idiot, can\'t read, or something? The ten problems only need one obvious solution." Dylan frowned with a slightly incredulous expression.
Such easy answers that he wrote were still being questioned? Could this lowly human man not read his gallantry? Dylan looked down on this man to an even lower level than before.
"Err... So, what you mean by the one solution for everything is to crush everything in your way? Did you not read the context of every question at all? Look at your answer in question one, only one sentence you wrote. Kill all monsters, fled without fighting only for the weak. What is this? " Jacob pointed to the obvious.
"Eh?" Sylvia immediately glanced at her father\'s paper. Sure enough, he wrote based on his own personality! Muscle brain that only knew violence!
"As it says there. Why run away if all the monsters can be killed? I am strong, not weak like you." Dylan snorted in dissatisfaction.
"Hehe, okay. Then how about I change the context of the question. Please answer it correctly, or you can\'t become an adventurer." Jacob chuckled in surprise, it ran into a personal attack.
He had to change his method specifically for people with muscle brains like this time. Sometimes, they were so realistic about themselves.
Sylvia was a little worried about her father failing to become an adventurer. Still, since her father was given the opportunity, she decided to keep quiet for a moment.
"Continue."
"Okay, listen carefully. You and your party consisting of your daughter Aivlys, your companion Aisyle, and her contracted beast go to complete a quest. At the destination, your party meets a horde of dangerous monsters that all of you can\'t handle at all." Jacob was silent for a moment, thinking about the next thing.
"Say the monster horde consisting of Saint class monsters and led by the Emperor class monsters. All of you must escape as soon as possible because they have seen you from a distance. When running away and being chased by a horde of dangerous monsters, say one of your members fell and was about to be attacked at close range. What are you going to do about it?"
When he was done, Jacob took a short breath. It was a long enough matter to re-explain.
"Who fell?"
"What? Would you have a different decision based on someone? Well, let\'s see what if it was your daughter who fell?" Jacob was a little surprised by that. He needed to find out more.
"If it was my daughter, I\'d risk it all to save her." Dylan answered firmly.
For some reason, Sylvia smiled happily at that answer. Even though her father had many flaws and mistakes, he was still her father who put herself above the others.
"Hmm... A decent answer, good. Then, what if it was Aisyle who fell?" Jacob nodded.
"Ignore it. She can save herself." Dylan answered very quickly and made sense.
"What!? You just let her bet on her own luck? So cruel and heartless, Aisyle, are you in this man\'s eyes that low?" Jacob exclaimed in surprise as if in disbelief. He traced more to the girl involved here.
"Hehe... Indeed it is true, maybe I will not wait to be saved by him. I also have Vanessa by my side." Elysia lightly giggled as she covered her mouth gracefully.
"Very well, that makes sense. Aisyle is protected by her contracted beast, on your level too." Jacob stroked his chin as if he understood Dylan\'s reasoning.
"Alright, even though your answer is a bit distorted, it\'s still tolerable because of your nature. Aivlys, can I borrow your party registration paper for a moment?" Jacob took out some papers, filled them on the table, and then asked for the form he had returned.
"Here." Sylvia handed over the requested paper with a happy smile. She was glad everyone passed the test.
"Give this to the legality room for the guild membership card, and your party registration paper to the registration counter. After that, you are ready to go complete the quest." After writing for a moment, Jacob returned a set of documents to Sylvia.
It was a legal document that he had signed, and all documents needed to be finalized.
"En, thanks. Eh? Why did you change the name of our party leader, Jacob?" Sylvia checked the documents, then asked in confusion.
Even though there was no party name yet, she had written her name in the party leader column but what was written was no longer her name.
"I changed it on purpose. It would be better if Aisyle became your party leader for the common good. I\'m worried about your party, make sure to ask her for advice and suggestions for important matters, okay?" Jacob smiled a little.
