Chapter 26: Blood flame lizards
"Don’t worry about it, just sign him up for the exam," Seer said.
"Yes, right away," the receptionist said. She pulled out her drawer and started searching through it, her hands shaking as she did.
Jake couldn’t believe how deep her fear was for them. She finally pulled out two pieces of paper and a quill for him.
"This is an information slip and a contract," she said, pushing it toward him slightly.
Jake walked to the counter. He picked up the paper and read the contract. It stated that whatever happened during the exams was not the guild’s fault.
He didn’t think about it much and signed it, before taking the next paper and filling in his information. He handed it to her. She read through the information to be sure everything was in order.
Her eyes widened at one point. She stared at the paper. "You’re a necromancer?" she asked.
"Yes, is that an issue?" Jake replied.
"No, it isn’t. I was just surprised. It’s hard to come by," she said. She filled the documents and closed the drawer.
"Please come with me," she said. There was a door at the other end of the back wall. She walked to it, and they followed her.
She opened the door and walked inside while they all followed her. Jake stepped into the hallway that was behind the door. Crystal lamps lined the wall, illuminating the darkness and bringing warmth.
