The Gamer's System

Chapter 131: Secondary Job Class

Zeke caused quite an uproar with the message that he gave to the elites. In fact, they were caught in so much disbelief that they continued complaining while also asking if the gamer was actually joking.

"What part of this looks like a joke to you exactly?" Zeke asked the group sternly once again. He slammed on the table, making everyone fall silent as he continued speaking.

"I need you all to follow for now. Take everything I said within this meeting into mind. Don't just blabber like mindless animals. Christ, your supposed to be beings with intellect, right? Think and act like ones." He followed up, finally getting out of the scene.

The whole room was silent because, with the message given by Zeke and the tone he used, they were able to calm down. They felt so embarrassed about their earlier antics which meant that, they somehow got the idea that they should really follow for the moment.

"Ohh... you've done it now. You've pissed dad off so much that he raised his voice." Morpheus said to the group, playing with them of course because he knew that the gamer was actually calm while he said those words earlier. He only wanted to stir up the elites and make them move with haste.

"I think what master meant is that six days is all we have. If we can't finish the job by that time then I assure you that some bad things would probably happen." Heron said, clearing things up.

"Anyway, that's it for now guys. You are free to do what you want but, remember the deadline for picking your job classes okay?" Heron and Morpheus soon went out of the room, with Both Quinn and Kaguya leaving first among the elites.

Although it was a lot to take in, the elites also knew that Zeke would never joke about things like this. In fact, the six days was probably way overdue and, they probably had to finish things much faster.

With all this being said, the elites moved on to contemplating what actual [Secondary Job Classes] they should take. Aside from Quinn, there was actually nobody else who had a [Secondary Job Class] yet and, Zeke himself meditated on what his should be.

At [Level 99] Zeke wanted to figure two things out in order to smoothly advance towards the main goal. The first is the one already mentioned (picking a secondary job class), while the other was in regards to the requirements needed to be met in order for him to reach [Level 100].

[Information: The system will not allow the gamer to reach level one hundred until, the gamer defeats the key.]

"And what the hell does that even mean?" Zeke asked the system which began generating the information for him.

{Loading Information please wait]

[In order to reach level one hundred, the gamer must defeat an entity with the title of [Key]. Currently there is only one within Mythos. Furthermore, the gamer must kill someone dear to him. Without fulfilling these two things, the gamer cannot advance to level one hundred.]

"Why are the requirements so vague and morbid?" Zeke asked himself discerning the information given to him by the system. As things stood, Zeke had no access to both things.

He has no person which he holds dear to him at the moment. At least, that is what he thinks. Furthermore, he has no idea where the [Key] is as the [System] itself does not have any data on the [Key's] whereabouts nor was it allowed to reveal any more data concerning this key.

"This is actually a lot more troublesome than I thought it would be," Zeke said, disregarding the information on leveling up for the moment. But he knew that greater requirements have better payoffs and, whatever it is that comes with him leveling up would probably benefit both him and his goal.

Zeke thought that having Samael within his ranks would greatly boost the force of his allies but, seeing as he cannot reach it, Zeke had no other choice but to focus on other things. Hence, the gamer browsed the number of job classes available as secondary choices.

Again, there were no limitations as to what he could get as his secondary job class. But Zeke thought of things carefully because, he didn't want to contradict his [Primary Job Class] nor does he want to do anything that would weaken it. Zeke wanted to optimize his class of [Conjurer] because, with all the skills and attributes that he has, Zeke was able to fend for himself already.

"What I need is a way to strengthen my forces even more." Zeke thought to himself, already deleting a bunch of job classes from the list in order to lessen the time of scrolling back and forth.

Then, there were only there left. Zeke spread the choices in front of him, viewing all the pros and cons which he himself created on separate system windows.

"This one would give me a lot of defensive stats and would greatly increase the amount of damage my forces can take. It's good and all but it wouldn't be of much use when it comes to missions that requires speed." Zeke marked out the first choice for the moment.

"This one on the other hand focuses too much on offense that I won't be able to protect anyone when needed. It's too much of a gamble for that much power." Zeke said; not taking out the first two from the list yet and, moving on to the third which displayed these:

[Secondary Job Class: Atticus' Kin]

[Information: The job class is based on the famous leader Atticus the Hun. He was the one who lead most of the sieges that began crumbling down the great Roman Empire and, lead 400+ tribes all by himself. The leader himself did not die from battle but from something health related, making everyone think that, if he did not, then the human would've probably laid waste to Rome altogether.]

"Yeah thanks for the history lesson, let's move to the more useful information okay?" Zeke told the system, filtering it and, showing all the skills and attributes related to the job class.

[Job Exclusive Skill: Undying Loyalty]

[Information: All summons created by Atticus' Kin will never die as long as the summoner himself still has mana. They will simply siphon mana from their summoner, prolonging their life and their stay in battle. The summoned creatures cannot regain health.]

[Job Exclusive Skill: Undying Fury]

[Information: Once summons reach the single digit of their health point remaining, they will have traces of red lines on their body. This means that, they will begin getting a double attribute boost.]

[Job Exclusive Skill: Leader of Thousands]

[Information: The number of summons which can created and kept is extended to 2,000 units. Roles may also be assigned and, depending on the role given to a summon, their attributes will be maximized toward that role.]

[Information: the role cannot go against the nature of the summon itself hence, a unit using a shield can only have roles related to defending.]

[Job exclusive Skill: Javelin of Victory]

[Information: The owner of the job class is able to summon the trusted Javelin throwers of Atticus himself. The strength of the javelin-using summons depends on the length of battle and the disadvantage of Atticus' Kin. The longer the battle goes on, the stronger the javelin throwers will be.]

"Yup, this is definitely the best among the choices I have." Zeke said as he finally clicked on the job class. This created a large surge of mana that surrounded Zeke.

Meanwhile, the elites have also began doing their part. Each elite went to a different training filed in order to assess all that they lack and what they could still improve. Aside from Quinn who now continued resting, the other elites have began choosing their [Secondary Job Class].

The two archers went to a shooting range. They continued testing out their shots on different angles and distances, telling each other what parts seem to be lacking from their archer counterpart. Through these, they were able to clearly assess the possible [Secondary Job Classes] which they could take.

"That was a bit off compare to your first few releases." Gawain said.

"Yeah I guess you're right. I'm definitely not cut out for long range shooting then." Eerie replied.

"Well it's either that or you choose something that could aid you with the problem." Gawain said, not having any difficulties with snipping at all because, that is his specialization. With this, the two sat down, their backs leaning on each other as they browsed the [Classes] available. 

For the most part, the archers thought that they were the most insignificant among the members of the elites. They felt that, their arrows not enough and that, they needed a way to continually fire. But not just normal arrows but instead, shots that could pierce deeply enough.

Gawain wanted to focus on snipping down his enemies. He wanted shots that were fast, accurate, and devastating. And this was the only requirement eh looked for on the [Secondary Job Classes] available. From the previous fights, he knew that he could've done more only if he could take down the stronger opponents first with a single hit. 

He thought long and hard and, remembered the advice given by Zeke to the group. That they should be creative in choosing their [Secondary Job Classes] because, whatever happens, Zeke would be able to create weapons, items and equipment that would suit their needs. And thus, the archer chose the job class of [Vanguard].

"I must be crazy." He thought to himself, already having the whole plan in mind with the [Class] he chose.

His fellow archer was just as crazy as he was. Eerie chose the job class of [Lucky Gambler] which was nowhere near the description of what an archer should be. With both of them finally making their choices, the archers showed the [Job Class] to one another and laughed at it. They realize how silly it might seem but, nobody else knew their weaknesses better than themselves and, they felt that they made the right choices.

They weren't the only ones who felt insignificant during fights. In fact, one of the strongest members of the elites now stood on a training ground with multiple targets to face. He continued moving around, piercing though each dummy. But the problem was that, on the walls were artillery units which shot at him on and on and, he couldn't do anything about these because his range was not long enough. 

This training didn't need to take long for Jake to understand what he lacked. In fact, in just a few minutes, he finished with the quick stretching he made and moved on to his own list of [Secondary Job Classes].

Jake continued walking around the area to help his brain function. He learned this technique from Quinn and, although he couldn't actually feel its effects that much, he still continued doing this whenever he was required to think.

"I probably need something that could create an area of effect damage. Aside from that, I need to be able to deal with those long-range units without having to get closer. But, what kind of job class would offer that for me?" He asked himself, scrolling through the list and, it seemed like his finger froze in place as he finally found the job class needed with the title of [Tepes].

It didn't take long for every other member to make their choices. In fact, by the end of the day, Zeke's [System Window] notified him that all members of the [Elites] now have their [Secondary Job Classes]. The gamer smiled as he saw this, moving to his bed and preparing all the things he needed to accomplish while he was in his subconscious state.

"I better keep my end of the deal then." The gamer excitedly pronounced as he went to sleep and began his [Crafting].
