The next morning, the girls immediately heads off towards Elikey before dawn. For all 7 horses, they only had to pay 10 silver coins. Before buying the horses, they had exchanged some magical items during the Deadly War, and got 100 gold coins.

Countries located in Usele all uses the same currency. The other 3 countries have their own currency, while Sterier uses all of them. Some part of Sterier where it doesn't have a magical barrier was made into villages for settlers in all 4 continents. When a person comes to Sterier, they can use any currency to buy anything in shops.

Usele's currency:

10 copper coins = 1 silver coin

100 silver coins = 1 gold coin

1 000 gold coins =  1 diamond coin

10 000 diamond coins = 1 black coin

From Quator to Elikey, would take a normal person at least 6 days. Fortunately they were not normal people, so the trip would take about 3 days if they travel by foot. However, if they travel by foot to Elikey it will rise some suspicions. They would also look more like slaves and will be look down more because they are females.

The current Raefinguil country is a male dominated country. Which means that the value of being a male is much higher than a female's. Females are thought to be virtuous and sweet, they mostly stay at home to do chores and watch over their children. If a female want to have a job, their requirement will be much stricter than the male's.

Before going to Elikey, they all already acknowledged that there will be many people that will make things hard for them. However, they must get the job or at least make themselves known during their stay.

So during the 3 days, they constantly fed their horses pills and potions to help them keep their stamina. Although they didn't arrive as fast at they had planned but it was extremely close. By the end of the trip, the horses has evolve tremendously. They now can absorb the mana around them, they body also changed a lot. There before thin body had changed to one with muscles!

2 days form now, the competition will start. There are a total of 4 rounds:

1. Magical Test
A imperial bodyguard is required to have at least level 10 magic. If they met the requirement, they will be send to the next round.

2. Battling
Participants are allowed to bring their own weapon but they are not allow to use magic. Depending on the number that passes through, participants will have to win certain rounds to be able to pass this round.

3. Bonding
Each participant will be able to meet each prince. If the prince particular like one, it will bring them an advantage in the last round.

4. Evaluation
The final round will decide the 7 people who will get the job. The royal council will go through all of the results to determine the best people.

" So we will have talk to them and try to make them like us?" Blaze asked.

Some nodded while others look at the competition weirdly.

" Are they taking this seriously? The princes have to favour someone and they will get to be the bodyguard... Interesting. We also have an advantage since we already stand out as a different gender." Aella said.

" Or you mean a disadvantage, they might think that we are too weak and need to stay home and earn how to please a man." Ivar said.

" You know Ivar, you're personality doesn't reflect your element. You're extremely straightforward but it correct and that's why we have to pass through the first 2 rounds perfectly." Lucy said making Ivar laugh.

" We don't need to worry about the first round since we are all above level is 40. The second round however is more difficult but not impossible." Tinuviel said.

" I don't think anyone in this kingdom can match us in speed and strength so don't worry too much. Aella, I think you should practice more in the upcoming 2 days." Ara said making Aella nod.

" So let's go to register to a guild first to avoid any suspicions. We will then split into 2 groups, one will go train for 1 day and the other go around town. We will switch when the day ends." Lucy concluded.

" Great but which guild will we go to?" Ara asked.

" Of course, our guild." Lucy, Tinuviel and Ivar said in unison. They all look at each other and secretly clap.

" Oh right, you all are in a guild right?" Blaze asked.

" Correct, Bloodbow is the most powerful guild in Usele, and in the top 3 of the other 3 continents. The only way that you can enter is by a guild member recommending you. It's also one of the only guilds that except female, our guild-master is also a female!"

" So I'm guessing you guys are recommending us?" Aella asked.

" That's right so let's go." Ivar said leading the way. The other slowly follow smiling.

They walked through the shopping centre that was filled with boutiques. The area was surprisingly busy in the morning, what was happening they wondered?

The kept walking until they reached the west part of Elikey, Ivar slowly stopped in front of a black castle. It was not as big and lavish as the imperial palace which could be seen 1 hour before you enter Ekiley. The castle still holds an elegant feeling with a touch of gothic. The castle looks haunted when you glance at it looks haunted but when you look close at the walls, the bricks are filled with tiny crystals that sparkles when it meets the sun. In other words, the sight was mesmerizing.

" Woah" Ara, Aella, Everest, and Blaze murmured, too mesmerize to say anything further.

" Now that you are here. Let us properly introduce ourselves, S class member, Solaris." Ivar announced.

" S class member, Eclipse." Lucy said.

" S class member, Nefaris."

The other 4 looked at them in shock. They all had hidden identities and didn't tell them.

" Wait ... why does these names sound so familiar." Ara asked.

" Because those are the names of the Slayers." A female voice suddenly appeared.

They all looked upwards to see a young women floating in the air. She has beautiful light blue hair with amethyst like eyes. The 3 guild member slowly walk towards her, then put their hand on their left chest and slightly bowed.

" We greet guild-master." They said in unison.

" It's been awhile since Ive seen you but no need to be formal, you guys are too special to do that. How about you introduce me to your friends" She said.

" Aeris, this is Ara, Aella, Everest and Blaze. They are the ones that we recommend. Girls, this is Aeris, she is our guild-master. " Tinuviel said making them all nod.

" They must be really powerful if you have recommend them. Welcome to the guild, girls." She said.

" I think we should enter the guild to get your card." Ivar interrupted.

They then all enter the main area. The lobby of the castle was spacious, there were many tables that was out. Since it was still early, the place was not very crowded. They then moved to the registration table. A tall female greeted them.

" Solaris, Eclipse, Nefaris! It's been a long time since you've come here. " She said running to hug them but was rejected.

" We've just met last month, Wolf. It's either you didn't noticed us or it's because you suddenly have amnesia."

" So mean! Anyways, who are these little girls. Are they here to join the guild?" she looked at the other 4 smiling excitedly.

" Calm down, Wolf. I could literally see your tail wagging. For your information, they are joining the guild." Lucy said.

" Great, you guys are the one who recommended right. Let's see where were those letters. . . here it is, so you girls only need to drop some of your blood while saying your alias and your preferred weapon." She said pointing at the crystal sphere on the table.

' You might have already notice that everyone here has an alias. It is to prevent people from knowing who you are, just in case they want to mess with your other identity. Everyone here has at least 2 identities, one as a guild member and the other as their daily occupant. ' Lucy explained.

' It can be anything right?' Aella asked.

Lucy nodded. ' Since you'll be joking our party, it's best to keep it one word.'

The 4 wondered for a bit, talking with each other telepathically. They all decided to choose an alias that's related to element.

" I'll go first." Blaze said. She then took a knife and sliced her fingertip, pearls of blood started to drip down.

" Ignis, sword." Then a white light appears, after it disappear if left a card and a red stone.

" Always keep the card with you, if you lose it immediately come back and ask for a new one. You never know if someone tries to impersonate you. The stone is for you to attach it to your weapon, it will improve the weapon's ability. As you continue to do missions, the stronger you will get, the stone will also become stronger. It is made out of your blood so it's made uniquely for you so only you can use it." Wolf explained

The process was done 3 more times.

" Avis, whip" she then took the card and silver stone.

" Slait, scythe. " Then a green stone appeared. She then moved back and took the stones with her.

" Aquira, bow and daggers." Afterward, 4 blue stone appeared with the card.

" It looks like you girls won't have to worry about survival. The way to upgrade to another class is by collecting certain things. For example, to enter D class you would have to gather a Walker's tooth, 5 Oxbeast's monster stones, and gather 4 arching blade." Wolf said.

" What if we currently have all of them?" Ara asked.

" Then you can just turn them in and upgrade to D class. DO you have all of them?"

They nodded and grab the items from their space to show her.

In normal circumstances, they wouldn't do that and would pretend to get them form a space pouch but since she already know their element and the other trusts her, they figured it old be fine.

" What are the requirements to upgrade to other classes?" Aella asked.

Wolf then listed the items while the girls took out the item. In the end, they all upgraded to B class.

After that, they walked over to the table where Lucy, Tinuviel, Blaze, And Aeris was occupying. They had decided to go pick a mission then sit on at one of the tables to order breakfast after they realized that the process would be extra long.

" Looks like they know our levels." Ara said while scanning her card.

" If you worry that everyone will know your level, don't worry. Only the register and the upper members will know. And that is only 3 people, the guild master, her attendant, and the register. The rest won't even notice you until you made a big accomplishment." Lucy explained.

" Now that's done, I have other things to do. Bye girls, I hope to see you come often." Aeris then stands up and slowly walk to her office.

" This card is like an ID card in Terra." Aella said.

" It's similar but it has an automatic update system build into it so if you ever join a party, you dont need to notify Wolf. It also works as a credit card but it uses points instead of coins." Ivar said showing her diamond card.

When a member upgrade into a new class, their card would automatically change to the class's color or material.

E class = Wooden card

D class = Copper card

C class = Silver card

B class = Gold card

A class = Ruby card

S class= Diamond card

Guilds uses points instead of coins. This is because big guilds like Bloodbow is located in multiple continents. Members from different continents would not need to worry about their currency since the points system is the same. They could also exchange points for the local currency. Shops that is owned by the guilds only uses points as their currency, that's why so many people want to join guilds because of their precious items on sale.

" Let's update our party status." Tinuviel said.

They then all form a circle with their cards touching each other's, after a moment the information on the card changed. Their once emptied slot next to the party was now labeled as The Slayers.

After they updated their status, the food finally came. The scent of grilled chicken intoxicated all of them. They then started eating their breakfast and then split into 2 groups.

Group 1: Ara, Aella, Everest, Blaze

Group 2: Lucy, TInuviel, Ivar

The first group will spend their first day training while the second group will be doing random missions in the city. The second group will still do missions while the first group explore the city since they've never seen Elikey before.

They were about to exit the castle when an annoying voice stopped them.

" Look who is here, the so-called Slayers" A male said.
