Capítulo 6: Sneak Out
"Yes! Ah, one more thing. How can I be accepted to work here?" Selina eagerly asked the young woman.
"Lina!" Diana scolded her only daughter.
"It's alright, Ma'am," assured the young woman while smiling.
"If you want to become a Union Guild's official like me, then the first thing you need to do is be accepted at Seraphium Royal Academy. After that, you have to study hard. Lastly, You have to be the top scorer of your year, so you can get a recommendation letter."
"Recommendation letter?"
The young woman smiled, nodded, and then said, "Yes. Even though it's fine even if you don't have it, but if you have it, you can be released from the professional exam."
"I will be released from the professional exam?" Selina asked with sparkling eyes.
"Yes. So you can enter Blue Lyre directly."
Selina's eyes lit up at this information but faded shortly after. In a nervous tone, Selina asked the young woman again.
"I want to be an alchemist, Miss...," Selina reads the young woman's nametag then continue what she said.
"Miss Yulia Katinaf. Although I want to be an alchemist, I also want to become a nice official lady like you too."
Selina raised her head and looked into Yulia's eyes.
"Ahh... This is really a difficult question," said Yulia. She thought about what answer she should give to Selina.
"Just do both of them. You can become a mysterious alchemist with your alias and also work here as a Union Guild's official. We have an extensive network, so if you succeed in making a unique magic device and is the first of its kind, you must register the patent here. This is done so that no other alchemist can copy your magic device ideas. You can even receive ten percent of the total sales from other alchemists if they use your invention as the basis of their magic devices," a charismatic voice interrupts Selina and Yulia's conversation.
"Chief!" Yulia exclaimed.
"Can I really do that, Madam?" Selina asked.
"My name is Fleur Voss Floraison. Call me 'Chief Fleur' when we are working as Union Guild's officials and 'Captain Fleur' when we're working as a knight of Blue Lyre. For your question earlier, of course, you can do it. We work in a shift system so that on your day off, you can work on making magic devices," said the Chief or Tenth Knight Division, Blue Lyre's Captain, Fleur Voss Floraison.
"Mom, can I do that?" Selina asked Diana. Her dark brown eyes stared intently at her mom.
"You can do it if you worked hard, Lina darling."
"Yes! I'm gonna be an alchemist and Union Guild's official from Blue Lyre."
After Selina's declaration, Yulia asked again, "Are you sure you want to be both an alchemist and Union Guild's official like me?"
"I believe if I try hard, then I can succeed in both," answered Selina in an optimistic tone.
Yulia smiled and said, "We do not accept ordinary graduates. We are not only Union Guild's officials who become medium between employer and employee, but sometimes we are also asked to be reinforcements by other Knight Divisions. So our work isn't easy at all."
Yulia inhale then asked with eyes that searching for conviction, "Do you still want to be a knight of Blue Lyre?"
"Yes, I want to be a knight of Blue Lyre," said Selina confidently.

Since that day Selina always asked to come along to the Union Guild whenever her father or mother had business there. Even though she was forbidden to come along, she didn't care. One day when Selina was barred from coming along by Zhihao who was a high-rank adventurer because he went to take a dangerous mission - eradicating demon beasts that appeared at the border between the Seraphium Kingdom and the Forbidden Forest, Selina decided to sneak out.
She disguised herself as a boy with the help of Landon's clothes that no longer fit. She wore a white bone shirt, brown cloth pants, and leather boots. She then hid his long light brown hair in a newsboy hat.
'With this perfect disguise no one will know that I'm a girl,' stated Selina confidently in her mind. She stared at her own reflection in the mirror in front of her.
"Mom is now busy designing her summer collection, so this is the right time to sneak out of the house."
Selina crept away out of her house while avoiding all the house workers until she finally reached the side gate. She tried to open the gate, but unfortunately, the gate was locked.
*Ck!*
Selina clicked her tongue in annoyance.
'Damn, the gate is locked. But it's okay, I can get out of here by climbing the fence,' said Selina in her mind. She clenched her right hand to encourage herself.
Selina then climbed the fence and arrived safely to the other side without any significant difficulty. After successfully getting out, Selina went to the horse-drawn carriage rental place. She ordered a horse-drawn carriage with the Union Guild as her destination.
'Luckily I had enough savings to order a horse-drawn carriage, otherwise, I would have to walk to get there. Aah…. Just thinking about it makes me tired,' thought Selina who successfully riding the horse-drawn carriage.

At the Union Guild, Selina prepares to surprise her favorite sister, Yulia, who always teaches her all the material to become a knight and a skillful Union Guild's official. Usually, at this hour Yulia is in the side garden to rest. But when Selina went there, she did not see her figure. When she asked a man in his twenties who swapped shifts with Yulia, Selina learned that Yulia was currently sick with the flu and could not work today.
"Looks like today is not my day," said Selina while leaving the building.
Although Selina was sad because she could not meet Yulia, now she had time to explore Seraphina City. While looking at the market, she saw something unusual. She saw a four or five-year-old girl who was forced by three drunk people to follow them.
