nAs the pain in their heads subsided so did the consciousness of Klautz returned. It was as if he had never fainted in the first place.

nHe was confused beyond relief as he turned around and found everyone holding onto their treasures. On checking his status screen he realized that even he had received a class and skills

nBill approached him.

nHe donned a sword Klautz hadn't seen before.

nA red sword with a cylindrical ruby embedded.

nAs the aura seemed to be out of the ordinary, Klautz assumed it was the reward he earned from passing through his trial.

nAs Klautz's gazed fixed on the sword, Bill awkwardly laughed.

n

"Ah, this sword? They gave it to me when I passed through the trial. It's a rank B item, the 'Sword of Extinction'.'

"

nA B rank gear was definitely a rare item in Hellfeim.

nEven in a large guild, it was only given out to a few of their important members.

nIt wasn't an item a newbie could get.

nBill seemed quite triumphant about the fact that he earned a B rank equipment.

n

"Klautz, do you want to take a look at it?

"

nAnd so, he held out the shield.

nNormally, it was common sense to not hand over your gear, even among your friends.

nIt meant that he wasn't completely contaminated by this world, but as Klautz was also curious, he took Bill's sword.

nName: Sword of Extinction

nRank: B

nClassification: Equipable type

nDurability: 8,500

nEffect: You gain a 'Toughness' buff when you face more enemies.

n

"You got a quite decent item.

"

nKlautz nodded his head.

nKlautz turned his Status Viewer and checked his abilities.

nClass –> Spirit Conjurer

nStrength 27 (22 5) Agility 23 (20 3)

nStamina 24 (21 3) Intelligence 14 (11 3)

nDefense 15 (12 3) Devil's Aura 13 (10 3)

nSpecial Note: Devil's Aura has been awakened

n'Ha.'

nSpirit Conjurer...

nEven Klautz himself was surprised at his development. However, unlike others, he hadn't received any weapons. But something was weird. Everything other than the Strength stat had 3 to it.

nHe checked his equipment to be sure and there it was.

nName Tosas's Demonic Spirit.

nRank: B

nClassification: Summonable type

nDurability: Unbreakable

nEffect: 3 to all stats.

nThe living weapon can be molded into any shape and can be commanded at will

nAn unbreakable B rank...

nIt was a rare type of weapon only the leaders of the organizations could use.

nThe effect was also outstanding. The shape-shifting weapon is perfect for a ninja-like him. Every ninja has to use multiple weapons to complete its missions.

nShurikens, Ninjato, nunchucks, and whatnot...

nBut with this Klautz didn't need any of those. Simply speaking it was the best weapon for Klautz.

n'The Sword of Extinction is nothing compared to this'

n'With this, it seems like the boss battle will be much easier.'

nHis current stats exceeded far beyond his expectations.

nHe had expected a C rank weapon at most

nAfterward, it seemed possible for him to go and retrieve his secret class.

n'Anyways...'

nHe examined everything, except for the last one.

n'Spirit Conjurer?'

nWhen he opened his skill category, there was one as he expected.

nSkill Title: Spirit Charm (A )

nDescription – Your aura alone will attract spirits and they would do your bidding. Note that higher-ranked spirits cannot be tamed if the user's level is low.

nSkill Title: Spirit Detection(D)

nDescription: Spirits are known to be sneaky. However, no spirits will escape your eyes.

n

n

n

n

nThese were the messages that popped up as he checked his skill.

nKlautz knitted his brows after reading all the messages.

nSpirits...

nThey are treated as monsters in Hellfeim and only attack humans in dark places or in the darkness of the night. There shouldn't be any of those in the beginning area. So these skills are useless for him to obtain the special class.

nBut, the necessary qualification was a staggering A rank.

nBut what nagged him most was the attributes of Devil's aura.

nHe thought for a moment and decided it wasn't a bad idea.

nIf he could gain strength and achieve his goals, any means wasn't bad at all.

nWhat Klautz truly wanted to do was save humanity.

nBut, it didn't mean that he wanted to save everyone. That's why Klautz didn't want to be a true warrior.

nIt suited him more to become a Devil-like warrior.

nThe problem was the method.

nHow he was going to become one.

n'Someday I will achieve this.'

nHowever, Klautz didn't really care.

nThat meant that it was possible to complete the quest.

n

"Big Brother. It says that I gained a new class.

"

nReena carefully approached him.

nShe then showed Klautz her status screen.

nThis is also considered forbidden in Hellfeim.

nHowever, this wasn't even comparable to Bill giving his sword to him.

n

"Don't ever show your Status Screen to others.

"

n

"Okay...

"

nShe sunk her head from Klautz's cold words.

nBut quickly raised her head to say...

n

"Then I will only show it to you, mister. After all, if I don't know what I have, I will still be in danger.

"

nKlautz looked at Reena's eyes for a moment.

nShe really is a keen child.

nAnd it wasn't as if her words were wrong.

nNot knowing what you had was also dangerous.

nHe took a look at Reena's Status Screen.

nName: Reena Nelson

nClass –> Paladin of Darkness (Demonic)

nStrength 11 Agility 11

nStamina 11 Intelligence 11 Wisdom 11

nSpecial Note: As long as light exists so will darkness

n'So you could even receive a secret class.'

nPaladin referred to maiden warriors who served a God.

nIt seemed like a special class only women could receive.

nIn the past, he had never heard of the Paladin of Darkness.

nMoreover, all of them receiving these classes without going through any trial was itself weird.

nThat's probably why it was a secret class.

nIn the past, there were less than 100 people who had a secret class.

nJust by looking at that, you could tell that they were well worth it.

nIt was as if Reena earned an incredible potential to grow.

nThough there was a question regarding the last part.

nAs long as light exists so will darkness. It was indeed an ambiguous effect.

nDoes it mean that you will only get stronger as you fight in darkness?

nHowever, Klautz just shook his head.

n'I wonder what I should tell her about it

n

"The effect is unknown even to me. We will find more about it later. As of now, we should focus more on returning back before midnight falls.

nSelena who was at the side had witnessed the whole scene. She bit her nails.

n'He is only kind to that b*tch! Why does it act so cruel towards me! I am a hundred times more pretty!'

nSelena hated to admit it, but she needed Klautz for her survival. Otherwise, she would have given him the cold shoulder especially after how he treated her.

nShe continued biting her nails thinking about a possible way out.

nLike my story? Add it to your library.

nAnd do drop some stones. Those stones are my salvation... my only motivation to continue writing, continue working.

nAnd do drop some reviews to let me know if you would want me to continue with this work.
