Chapter 16: Unique Class and the System 2
A crimson flame blossomed on the blade as if a meteor had arrived. The flower blossom looked like the sun as it spread out in four directions as if announcing the d of the cold winter.
Creak!
The two clashed.
Boom!
The dancing crimson flame subsided, and the g melted. The goblin's champion head and club fell above it.
Noah lowered his sword and exhaled an exhausted breath. That move was powerful and flashy, but it consumed too much mana.
He felt like his mind was going numb. His body was filled with sweat.
However, the power and sharpness that cut the goblin's champion apart in a single slash was satisfying.
Finally, the mission was over, and he could joy the rewards.
{You have killed a goblin}
{Experice+ 0.5%}
{You have killed a Goblin Champion}
{Experice +0%}
{You have leveled up!}
{....Error....}
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully clearing the first mission.]
[Rewards will be giv]
The system's notifications sounded so sweet in Noah's ears, that he couldn't help but smile.
He felt ev more alive, more refreshed.
[Ding! System's interface being unlocked]
[You can now use the Store]
[Gold's currcy system unlocked]
[5000 Gold coins earned as a reward for unlocking the system's interface.]
[The job change condition has be met.]
A dark gold system's interface was floating before Noah's face.
[Unique Class acquired: Angel Of Death]
Noah's heartbeat quicked, he almost jumped ev before checking this class.
At that momt, Noah's body shone in a dark red light. The intse light was ough to blind him, but it lasted only for a momt but during that momt Noah was st into a dark space where he heard a voice.
[The angel of death was tasked with lighting the way to the dimsion the departing soul would be bound to for their next life. For a human soul there were infinite paths. ---- had never yet lost a charge to the emptiness, the vast pool of the other tities that vied to be a God, for she was an ambassador of the only true God - one who can Create and Love.
The angel was --- channel, --- connection to the world. All times were nothing but a vast puzzle to the only living deity, all of them important but not sequtial in the way we experice them.
---- appeared as human for ---- once was, ethereal yet almost tangible ough to feel. --- radiated love, smiled and beckoned. --- was quite simply the one no-one would run from, --- was the one to take them "home."
Thou have now become Death, Destroyer of worlds, judge and guide of the Fall souls.
Fear Death not but what come after as Death is only the beginning.
Life is the jailer and Death is freedom.]
Noah returned to reality and forgot most of what he had just heard but he had the feeling that whatever this means it was important.
Suddly, another message appeared in his mind as if nothing had happed.
[Congratulations! You have acquired a Unique Class: Angel of Death]
[As a job-change reward, you have obtained the 'Angel's Sword of Death' and the 'Rune of the Angel of Death.']
[The obtained rune is automatically inscribed into the player's body!]
[You have learned the Angel of Death-exclusive skill, 'Seal of Death'!]
[The next skill can be learned automatically wh you reach level 0.]
He received a weapon, a rune, and a skill as job-change rewards.
However, that wasn't the only good news.
[Your rank has increased from 'Beginner' to 'Apprtice.']
[You have completed a sub-quest!]
[You have received a 50% discount coupon for an item in the Store for your first purchase.]
Noah's rank increased from Beginner to Apprtice as a result of his job change.
Ranking up had various befits. New job skills were acquired and existing skills were strgthed. You can now start wearing bched accessories such as earrings to boost strgth and so on.
''However, if you don't change your class, you'll be stuck at the Beginner level forever."
That's why changing jobs was an esstial elemt for growth.
Many rewards were received, but the message was not yet over. He believes there's more.
[Invtory obtained]
[Your invtory's size will grow as your level rises.]
Noah was pleasantly surprised, not everyone acquired an Invtory during their class advancemt, it's extremely rare.
Players rely mostly on accessories such as a ring or bracelet with a space hidd inside to store things.
Noah waited calmly for the last reward, the most important one, the message left by his mother.
And finally, it appeared.
[Ding! Last reward: A message left by my creator Dr Elizabeth Einstein]
Noah's body trembled and tears threated to fall from his eyes.
[Would you like to hear this message? Yes/No]
There was a momtary silce before Noah oped his trembling lips, ordering.
''Yes, please do so!"
[Replaying the message]
Suddly, there was a medium-sized floating window before Noah's eyes, it was like a pre-recorded message.
A woman dressed in a lab coat could be se in this video.
Gray, long wavy hair hangs over a sculpted, charming face. Beady violet eyes, set sunk within their sockets, watching affectionately the camera.
Soft skin gorgeously complimts her nose and leaves a compelling memory of her luck in love.
This is the face of Elisabeth Einstein. Logan's wife and Noah's mother.
The momt Noah saw this woman he burst into tears. It was like a dam was brok, he couldn't control himself anymore. He missed his mother too much, he wished she could be prest to see her.
''Missing you was how I grew up, growth is painful for the most part. Yet wh we learn these skills we are more than we were, taller and stronger for the struggle.'' Noah managed to say these words before wiping away his tears and focusing on the recording which started playing.
{My son it is me, if you are seeing this message it means the worst has happed, I'm dead which is regrettable.
I wanted to see you grow up, and bring home one or two beautiful wom.
*Chuckle*
Joke aside, it pains me that I won't be able to watch you but this is Life, it always does not go as planned. I already knew this wh I embarked on this journey.
This is my creation. Especially tailored for you to break past the wall. You will understand later. I know you seek answers for my death. Ev if I tell you not to seek answers or revge, you will not list anyway, you are my son after all, and I know you better than anyone. I just have one advice for you, son, be strong, super strong with strong allies before embarking on this road.
You will understand, that they are everywhere in the dark watching and plotting. This system will be your best ally. Do not trust blindly.
Once you reach the Grandmaster rank go to Antarctica, in a certain dungeon, some answers are over there, and the system will guide you.
Be strong my son, I love you, look after your father, he is a child in an adult body.
Rely on him, he is reliable and super tough-skinned.
*Chuckle*
Tell him I love him and will be waiting for him.
To live a life worthy of our son. Goodbye son, forever yours.}
The message ded.
