Chapter 289 - 15: Loot & Points! (1/2)
A/N here:
I'll be apologizing now beforehand on chapters that have infodumps. This is one such chapter. I'll make it easier to view by splitting the spells by tier. I've come to know that passives also have levels to them so will be adjusted accordingly.
The wiki has the level range for each tier as well. If you guys want me to list the level range for Tier 1-10 I will. This will apply to the availability of more common job classes.
As for MC's build, I'm planning to have him get 1 Low, 1 Medium 1 high and 1 Unique racial class, totaling 35/100 points.
The other 65/100 points for the total 100 racial/job class split will be for job classes.
But with that said hope you guys enjoy the chapter don't forget to drop a power stone and leave a comment below!

Seeing a flood of system notifications appear in Nao's and Isabella's view, Isabella started to spam the smiley icon. It didn't stop for a good while. Two big kanji letters reading '”Shouri' appeared behind her back, very similar to how Kanji appeared behind Touch Me's back when he saved Ainz from some Pkers.
The meaning of this meant Victory. They had cleared their first boss battle and were unexpectedly the first players to clear the beginner dungeon, The Bridge of the Damned!
Nao didn't let the notifications stop either. He started to gain one level after another. Three from the boss himself, three from the quest and an additional level for meeting hidden parameters!

Seeing this flurry of notifications, Nao couldn't help but smile inwardly. Isabella also received these same notifications and Nao saw a big Lv16 floating next to her name tag. Swirl after swirl of golden light appeared on their bodies signaling each level up.
Before the two realized it, they had doubled their levels from before fighting Mattugr!
”So gaining levels really isn't hard in this game...”, Nao said, drawing Isabella's attention.
”Looks like it. Plus we got something else too! I received another notification that that job classes are now available depending on what tier we're at! This function probably got unlocked by finishing the beginner dungeon.”
As if que, Nao suddenly received one more notification. He decided to have a look at it.
>
”Well that explains a lot. This is where the big customization comes into play. Why don't we take a look at what we can purchase?”
”Okay!”
After Nao confirmed that with Isabella, Nao opened up his status window and saw Job Class while scrolling through it with his hand. Selecting it, he found hundreds upon hundreds of job classes he can select from. It was categorized by what tier it was currently available.
”Long...”, Was the one word Nao couldn't help but utter, seeing how long the available job classes were.
By reaching Level 16, Nao now was able to choose both Tier 1 to Tier 3 spells as well as Tier 1 to Tier 3 job classes.
After having a good long look at the job class list, he decided to peruse the Tier 3 list more. Nao smiled inwardly once again seeing one of the classes he wanted to use in the long run.
Beast Tamer.
Seeing Beast Tamer available in the Tier 3 job classes, Nao didn't hesitate to choose it. Beast Tamer was part of his route for the NPC he wanted to create later on. Through his vision he had back in the DBZ Plane, Nao knew it would end up creating a violet haired Dragon Girl NPC, a rather insanely strong one at that. It was the only NPC he would create too.
So in aspirations to that, he would hope to find a World Level item that would give him the ability to grant all three thousand levels of a the Guild Base he plans to occupy with the girls.
The Great Tomb of Nazarick was one such location. His White Palace would end up being one other such location.
But all of that was in the future, for now Nao was happy he was on his path. His first step by choosing the Beast Tamer Job Class. Upon selecting it he saw it became available in his Job Class list, starting at Lv1. Unsurprisingly, buying it spent one of his skill points. Thankfully gaining those eight levels granted him another 24 to use on top of the one left over he had.
With no hesitation he bumped Beast Tamer to Level 10, spending nine more points to do so. Upon doing so he gained another flurry of skills unique to that of Beast Tamer. He also took this time to add Tier 3 spells to his Spellbook, as one could say. But in reality these spells were just added to his Tier 3 icons. One of which he was very much looking forward to using, Fly!
After getting his Beast Tamer class to lv10, he unexpectedly saw that it branched out into more advanced classes, however all of them were grayed out. Depending on the type of beast one wanted to contract, one could go that route. He had a look through what was currently locked, and found Dragon Rider as one of them.
Knowing this job class existed brought more joy to Nao. Among the remaining jobs he plans to use, something along the Dragon Rider was one of them. He pulled up the window more closely as it revealed the general description of Dragon Rider. He also decided to pull up the window for what Beast Tamer was as well.

Nao had a good look at the two descriptions of these two job classes and nodded in approval. Dragon Rider wouldn't become available to him until he reached Tier 7. Nao would have to reach at least Level 43, so he had a road ahead of him.
Knowing this, he closed the description windows. He knew he had loot to open as well so he decided to open them posthaste!

Seeing his newly found rewards, Nao became interested. He went ahead and immediately swapped out what he could. He also decided to have a look at the Wand of Flight.
>
”A magic item already?”, Nao couldn't help but utter in surprise, drawing Isabella's attention once more.
”Moreover it's Over-Magic bound, so it'll let me equip it right away.”, Nao continued to say.
”Magic item? What are those?”
”They're pretty unique items or gear that are blessed with a special ability, hence the word Magic Item. The one I got grants me the ability to use Fly with no cost. That'll definitely come in handy.”
”Fly? So we can actually fly in this game?”
”Sure can. Tier 3 is needed for it. I'm sure it'll drain your MP the more you use it unless you get a Magic Item like mine. For now you should open your loot and put on whatever you can. After that we'll call it a day.”
”Okay!”
After the two conversed a bit, Nao decided to equip everything he could and saw his stats rise up once more. He also saw Isabella act giddy opening loot boxes, which in this game were in the form of Data Crystals. Nao equipped his Want of Flight as well, and immediately took note of the 20% boost to his overall stats. His stats were finally starting to shape up at a mere Tier 3!
