Regardless, I gathered my courage, smiled without answering their questions, and continued walking toward the entrance of the building. The reporters were then stopped by the bodyguards guarding the premises. Iris was now a bit distracted while talking on her phone, so I continued inside.
Upon entering, the people inside were curious about the commotion outside and soon realized it was just because of some celebrity.
But the real question was: what was I doing inside the Hunter Association headquarters?
I approached a vacant seat in front of a receptionist.
The receptionist looked a bit shocked when she saw me.
"You—you're Viola Silva!"
She seemed to recognize me, but after realizing she had acted unprofessionally, she quickly returned to a professional tone.
"What can I do for you, Miss Viola?"
"I'd like to register myself as a hunter, please."
She squealed. "Oh goodness! You awakened, Miss? This is big news!"
She squealed again and jumped out of her seat.
