Entering the hall. It's not how she imagined it... It was all very well organized. That surprised Nero.

"You're here!" Jana smiled at Nero and Choko.

"Hrm. Good morning." Choko greeted them.

"Good morning." Said Nero.

"Good morning." Jair and Breno agreed.

She had already learned from Choko that 150 Essence Coins were needed, so Nero had already taken the coins from her inventory.

"h.e.l.lo, beautiful lady, how can I help you?" Arriving at the counter, Nero was attended by a middle-aged man with black hair and dark blue clothes. 

"Hrm, I want to register to be a hunter," she replied.

"150 coins is needed, essence, please." Said the man.

Nero agreed, she gave two coins to the man a 100-essence coin and another 50-essence coin.

Receiving the money, the clerk brought a blue crystal ball with him. He said, "Put your hand on the crystal ball, now close your eyes and manifest your mana."

A flash of blinding light emitted soon after, causing those closest to the crystal ball to close their eyes. The crystal ball blinked in white light and then went dark.

Then, on the card that the man was holding in his hand, affinity with "light and shadow" appeared. The man looked at Nero in a new light, not only because having affinity with 2 elements are rare, but also because light and shadow are even rarer.

 But the middle-aged man acted professionally, he knew he couldn't raise an alarm about it or say it out loud. Since that flash of light caught everyone's attention. How surprised would they be if they knew?

He kindly smiled at Nero when he asked, "What name will the young lady want on her hunter card?"

"Nero." She answered.

The man nodded and told Nero to sit in a chair and took a picture of her with the card.

After having Nero sign some papers and answer some questions, she took the card.

"Thank you," she thanked the attendant and she and the rest left the Hunter a.s.sociation lounge.

"It was easier than I imagined..." Nero commented distractedly. She imagined it would be much more complicated and would take much longer.

"Hrm, it only takes longer if you wanted to rank up. Since it is necessary to pa.s.s some tests before." Said Jana.

"I understand," she nodded in understanding. Holding the card in her hand, she looked at the card information.

She asked herself with doubt: "Why did my Hybrid Cla.s.s remain hidden and I became a Wizard of Light and Shadow?"

That just made her think what she had was better than that card since hers shows her status much more complete. Now she understands why that d.a.m.n scientist went crazy when they stole that card from him...

"Nero, I understand you said these clothes of yours have a good defense, but at least let's buy an overcoat and put them on top?" Choko said as he noticed the looks of those perverts when she saw Nero.

Holding her Hunter card, Choko took a white mask off and gave it to Nero.

Choko was always looking fiercely at these perverts, almost to the point of wanting to beat them up. Nero looked at Choko and seeing how worried she was about her; Nero nodded and also wore the white mask that reached up to her nose.

"Thank you," she thanked with a m.u.f.fled voice for the mask fabric.

After she finished wearing the mask, they kept walking.

"Nero, are you sure you're okay to go in the dungeon today?" Jana asked.

Seeing her worried expression, Nero nodded and said with a comforting smile: "I'm already 100% fine, thanks for caring."

"Of course, I care." She said immediately: "Although not for long, I already consider her my friend, and I don't want to see my friends get hurt."

Nero remained silent for a while, she was not used to worrying about her, even in her past life and not in that one. And her most vivid memories were her in the laboratory experimenting in a place forgotten by G.o.d.

Although she didn't like to remember that place, she couldn't help herself. Closing her eyes, Nero took two deep breaths and she managed to calm down.

"I'm fine, really." She said to Jana: "I know that only yesterday I had a bad time, but it was because I was disagreed for a long time and was also hungry. That's why you don't have to worry so much."

"Jana's right, even if you're okay now, it doesn't mean you're totally okay. If something happens and you feel pain or discomfort, you have to let us know, all right?" Said Choko.

"Okay, I'll do it." Nero nodded and smiled as he saw their expressions worrying about her.

"We're here." You warned Jair.

They stop walking, on the left side, there was a clothing store. Jana and Choko then dragged Nero to the store. She shook her head, impotent when she was dragged by the two girls.

Jair and Breno had no interest in women's clothing, so they kept looking at men's clothes as they waited for the girls to finish shopping.

Although the intention was just to buy a coat for Nero, the two girls were buying a lot of clothes that they thought were nice.

"That looks very good on you, Nero!" Choko clapped when she saw her wearing a white overcoat with black b.u.t.tons.

"Hrm, since you're saying, I'll take this one." She said and went towards the cas.h.i.+er to pay.

"It's 30 coins essence." Said the cas.h.i.+er's woman.

Nero groaned inside, thinking her money is almost gone. "Forget it, it's not just a few coins? Then I'll do more." With regret, she took the coins and paid off the cas.h.i.+er's woman.

After leaving the store, although she didn't call as much attention a pervert as before, she was still a beautiful woman... it was inevitable that other people would look in her direction.

Choko sighed and said to herself, "At least they don't have that perverted look..."
