Frostfire Legacy

Chapter 307 New Member!

After hearing Octavia's words, Aster quickly decided to ask the rest of the girls for their opinions. Of course, their decisions were split equally: 2 for and 2 against.

"I don't like her! She's definitely targeting Darling, and I don't want to have more rivals than this!" Tina exclaimed with indignation.

Kali, on the other hand, simply muttered. "I refuse." Before turning around and moving to her room once more.

Although she didn't give a valid reason, Aster could tell that Kali was simply annoyed that Magnus was sending another "observer," as if indirectly telling her that she, alone, wasn't enough.

"Having more members is always better. It's a pleasure~!" Cassy, despite being unable to see the other person, quickly gave her approval with a wide smile.

Finally, there was Liz, who extended a hand forward in an expression of acceptance. "I'm in favor of taking you into our party, Ms. Octavia. I'm looking forward to working with you."

"Alright, so it's decided then. Ms. Octavia, welcome to our party!"

Aster clapped his hands before turning to their new member. With his vote added in to the count, it was 3-to-2 in favor of taking Octavia in as a new member! Although it wasn't pleasant for Tina, she had no choice as it was a fair method of voting. Still, she was grumbling under her breath while walking away.

"Mhmm! Thanks for the warm welcome~!" Octavia smiled, with Argus still within her arms. "Right, when should we go and register the party at the guild? Today? Tomorrow?"

Before they could truly be called "party members," they first needed to go through the guild for party registration. After a week of trial period, they would then have to renew the contract once more, making it slightly bothersome considering that they were rushing through the dungeon.

"I guess now is just as good as anytime," Aster decided, thinking that the faster they were over it, the better.

"Then, Cassy, Liz, we're going to the surface for a moment. Watch over the place while we're gone." He commanded the two worriedly. "Remember to not let any adventurer, whether you know them or not, to come in while we're away. Also, avoid going outside as much as possible. Always prioritize safety first."

"We know, Star. We're not kids, you know? Hehe!"

After listening to Aster's instructions, as if a worried mother going to work while leaving her child alone at home, Cassy let out a soft chuckle while giving a thumbs up. Still, Aster couldn't help but get worried. Discover more stories at empire

"Don't worry. No matter what happens, even if a sudden attack by a Rogue Boss on this peaceful floor occurs, I swear to protect everyone with my life on the line!"Nôv(el)B\\jnn

But with Liz's manly declaration and firm resolve, Aster had no choice but to leave it to them. Heaving a short sigh while changing gears, Aster turned to Octavia and nodded. "Then, shall we?"

"Yup!"

'Don't tell me...'

Finding his own imagination a little wild, he quickly shook his head, shaking the thought away. Instead, he put the matter to the side for now and focused on reading the contract, ensuring that nothing else was different other than the missing 1-week trial period.

After three minutes, Aster completely skimmed through the contract, making him sure that there's no problems whatsoever with it. With the pen he got from Zena, he finished signing his section of the contract before passing it over to Octavia... Who signed it too without even bothering to read its contents!

"You... nevermind."

He wanted to chide her, telling her to at least skim through the contract. But after seeing her eyes gazing back at him—sparkling with excitement and full of trust—he completely lost the will to rebuke her.

Well, it's true that the guild wouldn't really try and scam them through a contract, anyway. So not reading a contract that's used by all adventurer parties wouldn't really have much impact.

"Aaaand... Congratulations!" Zena cheered, clapping lightly after checking the completed documents. "With this, Miss Octavia has officially entered your party! Please confirm."

Right after, she returned the Adventurer cards of the two, and Aster didn't delay and checked his.
