Chapter 267 Changing Main Class And Subclass!

-----

Now that I know that Subclasses can gain EXP individually from merely fighting monsters, I gained a slight amount of hope. However I cannot really hope that I will gain easy amounts of EXP over time. I can already guess it won't be anything too easy, but so be it. Before making up my mind, I wanted to inspect the last thing, however. Something related to the Invoker Class. I asked the Guider and information emerged over the Grimoire's pages quickly after

-----

[Invoker: ★]

The First Talent within the branch of the [Summoner]. By leveling up and evolving this Talent, new Talents related to Summoning might emerge after reaching max level. This Talent enhances the ability to summon special Spirit Familiars, different from the conventional Spirits that inhabit Spirit Orbs. But it also can enhance Spirit Orb Spirits.

Interesting, so it is related with Summoners. Perhaps this could be a good way to enhance the power of Gluttony and maybe make it mine now? It still connected to Gluttony, but what if… I could acquire it for myself?

Guider, can this do it?

[Uncertain. However, it does seems to be able to enhance the Beast Spirits you're able to summon. There are new Skills related with them as well.]

Hmm… This would be quite the gamble. And it might be better to simply pick the other more straightforward choices. But something is telling me to go this way. Perhaps it really has what I want… If I can enhance the power to invoke spirits, I could create my own personal army, just like in my previous life.

Alright, I guess I have decided my Main Class. But now, Subclass? Fisher? No, I won't take this one for the moment. I am honestly between Farmer and Alchemist. Farmer might be able to do some amazing things with our crops, but ultimately it won't help me in anything else, perhaps. I know my father developed interesting powers, but even then… I feel like Alchemist has a more broad usage, and it will be useful for the rest of my life as well. I feel greatly inclined to choose this one above the others.

And I will, I've already made up my mind.

[You have selected the [Invoker: ★] Main Class]

[You have selected the [Alchemist: ★] Subclass]

[Your Level has reset back to 0]

[Your Level Cap has risen to Level 30]

Level 30?! Isn't this a bit ridiculous…? I never knew it would reset so much! How can I even get so much EXP to reach Level 30 in any time soon? I will have to delve in every single dungeon or monster-infested area and genocide as many monsters as I possibly can to even get enough EXP.

…But somehow, this seems rather exciting.

I don't know why, but something inside of my head had changed for some time. I feel excitement in the act of grinding Experience Points, for some strange and bizarre reason. Maybe the exhilarating feeling of leveling up, and the long road that brings up to that satisfaction… It is a great gratification that cannot be easily attained in other ways.

Anyways, what about my Status, did it increase?

I swiftly checked my own Status, finding no changes. It seems that changing Talents doesn't give any instant powerup at all, how disappointing… I guess I really have to earn everything through hard work. Well, not like I've ever wanted it to be any other way.

"I have finally changed the Talents." I said with a proud smile.

"Oooh! What did you choose? I also just feel like I broke through something. Is this my level cap increasing?" Wondered Eleanora. She was of very good humor today.

"Precisely. Our new Level Cap is…" I said, fearing to make her disappointed.

"It is…?" She asked excitedly. Unlike me, she's incapable of seeing her own Status unless I let her see it through the Grimoire. She's able to tell when she levels up thanks to the "Holy Spirit's Voice" that announces level ups and skills acquisitions.

"Level 30…" I sighed, Eleanora's face quickly grew paler, until she looked like she had completely turned into stone.

"…Eleanora?!" I asked in shock, as she quickly woke up from her daze.

"I-It took so long to reach Level 10! And now… L-Level 30?! Uagh!" Eleanora cried like I had never seen her before; her face was truly filled with despair.

"I know the pain. But this is also part of the fun, Eleanora. Let's see it that way. I've already cursed Lucifer so many times before that I feel like it doesn't has a meaning." I sighed.

"Blake… I guess it was fun to hunt with you… But hunting in this same forest for another two years seems a bit… boring." She sighed.

"I know. I plan to eventually move to the grasslands and explore them in search for new prey before reaching ten years of age. I could even bring my father to reassure my parents that I'll be alright, or even the priests for healing." I said with a nod. A new plan to earn EXP quickly emerged in my mind, exploring the grasslands past the woods was an interesting idea. I've heard that higher level monsters roam there, more dangerous than here. The forest makes for a natural wall that protects the people of this fiefdom from these natural monsters.

They're not aggressive so they rarely get into this territory. And when that happens, adventurers emerge and quickly dispose of them. This town is used as a place where adventurers come to rest after hunting in the grasslands as well. Hell, we could even hire an adventurer as a guide. Of course, with Ellergest's money. I decided to explain what I had on mind to Eleanora, as she nodded and understood things better as well.

"I see! It doesn't sound so terrible now… But what Talents did you pick?" She wondered again.

"Invoker, which seems like a Summoner Talent, and Alchemist." I said. "Both were ideal for what I wanted to do… It seems that Invoker might help me further develop the abilities of Gluttony, and perhaps make them truly mine as well."

"You're as insightful as ever, my lord." Eleanora said with a pleasant smile. "I-I mean Blake…!"

"Don't sweat it. I know it takes a while to get used to it." I sighed.
