Chapter 43 Getting A Class
Reign and the others looked at the nine people standing in front of them, each had their name and the class they were responsible for teaching floating above their heads.
- Warrior Trainer Kroll
- Swordsman Trainer Kane
- Knight Trainer Lance
- Slayer Trainer Odoc
- Mage Trainer Iryhtil
- Thief Trainer Caen
- Druid Trainer Ciannait
- Archer Trainer Qiralei
- Assassin Trainer Eldar
Looking at the people in front of them everyone was surprised to see a familiar face, the captain of their castle, the assassin trainer Eldar!
"Heya guys, surprised to see good old me here?" Eldar gives them a wide smile while looking at them, snickering a bit as he watches their surprised faces.
"C-captain, why are you here?" Shadow gulps while he asks Eldar, nobody expected the captain to be a trainer.
"Well long story short everyone from the Alliance can apply for a job on a new planet, you could consider me to be a bit lucky and get two." Eldar brings two fingers up and gives the peace symbol while smiling with all of his might.
"A bit lucky?" The huge and muscular Odoc sneers and says. "Even the god of luck would find it difficult to get two jobs of such importance, calling yourself lucky is a huge understatement."
"Enough Odoc, it's not our business, let's just get over this, looking at these guys I don't think anyone will choose me, so if you will excuse me I'll take a nap while you decide." Iryhtil takes a glance at Reign and the others and moves towards a giant pillar, he sits down and leans on it, trying to fall asleep.
"Alright everyone, let's not confuse the poor guys any longer, so all five of you have become eligible for a class, usually you would do all kinds of tests before meeting any of us and getting a trainer but luckily for you guys the system's rules changed for us too." The knight trainer Lance shrugs his shoulders and sighs before continuing.
"Now we have to come forward if an individual or a party did any notable things beforehand, and well you guys acting crazy and finishing a hidden dungeon with a level 10 monster inside is more than enough to get a good rating."
"So I'll start the introduction, as a warrior you can be proficient of all kinds of weapons, fighting defensively or offensively, short-range or medium range, you can do it all." The warrior trainer Kroll boasts as he introduces the class to them, above his head they could now see the names of those eligible to become a warrior, there were three of them, namely Reign, Wolf, and Tank.
"Yes, you can become proficient with almost all weapons, never achieving the master level or more." Kane suddenly says from the side.
"You don't need to when you can counter your enemy with a different weapon each time." Kroll growls from the side while shooting a venomous stare towards Kane.
"Yeah, sure, well if you choose to become a swordsman on the other hand you can become a master of the sword, being fast, efficient, and stronger than a simple warrior," Kane explains the class in simple words looking at Reign during his speech, he of course doesn't forget to throw a verbal jab towards Kroll whose face reddens with anger.
"A knight on the other hand is a stable, unyielding class, you will be able to defend against all attacks while not forgetting to damage your opponent, quite useful if you're a big guy." The big man Lance flashes a smile to Tank after explaining his class, having full confidence that he will choose him in the end.
"A slayer is simple, use a big weapon with both hands and don't allow your enemy to do anything before you crush him, technique and skill can both be crushed with overwhelming strength." Odoc simply looks at Wolf as he says.
"A mage, ahh, a mage simply uses magic to blast enemies to pieces from long-range, something you guys seem not to care about," Iryhtil says while yawning and promptly returns to sleeping, seemingly not caring if anyone chooses him.
"A thief is a master of deception, you won't be able to fight as well as others but why do that when you can just go around and steal whatever you want, you have an enemy you can't beat, wait till the night and steal his equipment, he gets weaker and you get stronger, simple stuff right?" Cane explains his class with passion, all the other trainers look at him with disgust when he finishes.
"Fighting is only the final option, why bother doing that when you can become one with nature, communicating and forming bonds with plants and beasts, if a fight is inevitable though, you can use everything you have and show the wrath of mother nature to them." The druid Ciannait says, her eyes glinting with a dangerous and ferocious light at the end of her sentence.
"Nature is useful and good, but why bother with it when you can simply put an arrow through your opponent's heart or head from a mile away, makes it much easier and less bloody." The beautiful elf Qiralei says, leaning on one pillar and looking straight at Beast who felt his heart stop for a moment.
"So I'm last huh, well the name of the class says it all right, be stealthy and assassinate your enemies before they know you even exist, but don't be fooled into thinking an assassin can't fight in a melee, our speed can make it quite difficult to hit us while allowing us to hit you." Eldar smiles at all of them while finally nodding at Shadow.
"So, who will you guys choose, you needn't be hasty, we have time," Iryhtil says from the back and goes back to sleep again.
"I'd actually thank you if you were fast, I don't want to stay here much longer, this hall always gives me the creeps," Qiralei says as she goes through her long silver hair with her hand.
"I choose swordsman." Reign simply puts his hand up in the air as he says, looking at the other trainer he simply shrugs his shoulder in apology. "It fits me the most, sorry."
"Slayer." Wolf nods at Odoc as he says.
"I wanna be a knight, I don't want to waste my awesome shield skills." Tank grins from ear to ear while looking and Lance.
"Sorry, thief doesn't sound bad but I don't want to be useless in fights so I choose assassin." Shadow apologizes to Cane before nodding at Eldar.
"Ummm, I, I choose archer, even though I like animals and all, using a bow is the only thing I'm good at right now." Beast bows down to Ciannait before giving a shy smile to Qiralei who smiles back, making Beast blush in shame.
