Relationship returning nothing when trying to reference

Question

I am currently trying to reference all the guilds the user belongs to, but right now, it doesn't seem to be working as intended. When I try to use $user->guilds(), it shows that it has a relation but doesn't return anything. So I thought I might need to do a pivot table.

User Migration

Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
    $table->bigIncrements('id')->unsigned();
    $table->string('descrim');
    $table->bigInteger('snowflake')->unsigned();
    $table->string('name')->nullable();
    $table->string('username');
    $table->string('email')->unique();
    $table->timestamp('email_verified_at')->nullable();
    $table->string('password');
    $table->string('avatar')->nullable();
    $table->string('banner')->nullable();
    $table->boolean('mfa_enabled')->default(false);
    $table->boolean('verified')->default(false);
    $table->rememberToken();
    $table->timestamps();
});

Guild Migration

Schema::create('guilds', function (Blueprint $table) {
    $table->bigInteger('id');
    $table->bigInteger('user_id')->unsigned();
    $table->bigInteger('user_snowflake')->unsigned();
    $table->string('name');
    $table->string('icon');
    $table->string('owner_id')->nullable();
    $table->string('permissions');
    $table->string('permissions_new');
    $table->timestamps();
    $table->foreign('user_id')->references('id')->on('users');
});

User Model

namespace App\Models;

use App\Models\Guild;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
use Laravel\Sanctum\HasApiTokens;

class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use HasApiTokens, HasFactory, Notifiable;

    protected $guarded = [];

    protected $hidden = [
        'password',
        'remember_token',
    ];

    protected $casts = [
        'email_verified_at' => 'datetime',
    ];

    public function guilds()
    {
        return $this->hasMany(Guild::class);
    }
}

Guild Model

namespace App\Models;

use App\Models\User;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Guild extends Model
{
    use HasFactory;
    protected $guarded = [];

    public $incrementing = false;

    public function user()
    {
        return $this->belongsTo(User::class);
    }
}

Remove (), instead of $user->guilds() do $user->guilds.
