Chapter 489 - Strange Job Changes!
-----
Now that Ervas had evolved, he had realized that his Mana was nearing five billion, and his Magic had already reached over 400 thousand! They were outstanding numbers.
However, his Strength was still far from Veronica, and he seemed to specialize more in magic, it was as clear as day.
In fact, his magic stat was higher than Veronica's strength stat, meaning that he specialize was even stronger than Veronica's.
However, what he really cared for was building up more muscle, he desired muscle above all things.
As Ervas was formerly a female, Veronica, when he realized he was born as a boy he had felt quite strange and down in the first months and year, however, as he began to accept his future like a man, he began to grow fixated into becoming a manly one.
If he was going to accept becoming a man, might as well be the manliest man ever!
This is why he desired to build up muscle, however, he was still 3 years old, and halfway through four years of age, despite that, his body had matured quickly thanks to his Samsara System and the power of Skills and Skill awakening.
However, Ervas had begun to grow disappointed that the more his body developed, the less muscle there was.
Nonetheless, he still believed that he simply needed to keep growing naturally like any other boy his age and that muscles would eventually appear, just like the amazing six-pack that his father carried, or any of his beautiful muscles which he admired, seeing his father as his model figure, a true Adonis!
However, Jason was too naïve to think that his son glanced at his muscles with such fervent admiration and devotion, so he never gave it much thought when Ervas admired his near-nude body whenever they went to take a bath together as father and son.
Truly, Jason's body was like a Greek sculpture!
Ervas always thought
"I want to have this body!
", and continued to strive forward, using his free time to do all kinds of body-building exercises with the help of his three girlfriends (Acathea and Amelia had been added officially as his girlfriends a few days ago!).
"Muscles…
" Ervas thought as he glanced at this slim and sleek arms, his slim and smooth legs, and his little belly… muscles were nowhere to be seen, but anyone that was to touch Ervas body would immediately believe he had some, as his arms were as hard and study as steel if not more!
"Not yet…
" he sighed, as he accepted that he had not yet grown muscles…
However, he realized that his wolf ears had grown twice as big, giving him the ability to hear even better and that his wolf tail had become very large and fluffy, ad now he might be able to use it as a broom! …Well, that wasn't much of a plus.
Aside from that, the scales he had growing on his body disappeared, but he was able to
"summon
" them over his body any time he wanted.
Additionally, his horns had grown sharper and more refined, resembling a crown of golden spikes over his silvery-white hair with black strands.
His eyes were still crimson red and his skin pale-white, but he saw that his nails were now completely black, and the skin around the nails was slightly darker, with a hint of purple, where the venom-producing glands were deposited.
Thanks to his recent evolution, his body had now gained venom-producing glands ear his sharp vampiric fangs, and the claws of his hands and feet.
He willed it, as his glands were suddenly squeezed inside of his fingers, and a little drop of yellow-colored liquid came out from below his nails.
"Interesting…
" he thought, as he decided to change Jobs at long last.
Jobs Available
Screaming Demonic Horror, Dungeon Creator, Demonic Divine Light Specter, Divine Chimera Beast, Gene Collector, Space-Devouring Void Beast, Divine Life Spirit Magician, Ancient Vampire, Gashadokuro, Elder Dragon King, Life Magician Prince, Void Tree Magician King, Ophion (New!), Divine Psychokinesis User (New!), Damu (New!), Freyr (New)
"Four new Jobs… And three of them have… God names? I thought this was a thing that only Veronica would have…
" thought Ervas, as he noticed that at long last, he had acquired Jobs named after Gods of Human Mythology!
These were Ophion, an ancient Greek Deity that represented Life, something similar to the concept of Demiurge. The deity was represented by a snake who had existed even before other deities, who fertilized another deity, who later on gave birth to all creation through a cosmic egg.
Ophion then claimed to have created everything, boasting to be the architect of all physical existence, and due to his arrogance he was thrown into the Tartarus… or so Ervas recalled from his Memory Library Skill, as this info was investigated by the younger Veronica for a school project long ago.
Damu was a Sumerian deity attributed to healing and exorcising, often depicted as a child, and mostly worshiped by women in the past.
Freyr, on the other hand, was a Norse God that represented nature, the day, good weather, virility, and other things. He was the
"most renowned
" of the Vanir, a second group of Gods aside from the Aesir.
Ervas had learned about these last two through… Gacha games. Indeed, as Veronica within Earth, she had become attached to Gacha Games, and they often if not always used mythology figures from human history as characters and inspiration for storylines.
He remembered that as Veronica, he had played a game named Valkyrie Connect, which was very inspired by Norse mythology at the beginning, having many of its main characters being them.
As she liked to read their descriptions, she learned about what kind of figures they truly were in mythology… one such character was Freyr, a Five Star Healer, it was one of the most
"broken
" units in the game, and this is why, perhaps, this name and character had been engrained on her mind.
Ervas analyzed these Jobs and found that they were indeed quite related to his capabilities… However, he felt like calling himself a God might be a bit too much, so he decided to simply absent from making any comments over it and accept it without questioning it.
