Chapter 162: Chaos Lord (1/2)

-----

What could these two new Abilities and the two new Skills do?

Chaos knew that Job Skills were often passive effects that enhanced something within that Job's abilities or capabilities.

Job Skills often helped at using special knowledge or techniques over something as well. Such as using Sword Techniques if you got the Swordsman Job, or Healing Magic with the Priest Job, or Alchemy with the Alchemist Job, and so on.

They also made it for a crafter to become even better at doing what they do the best. Or they also made it better for a blacksmith to make weapons that could be strong, resilient, and durable.

Such powers and capabilities came in all sorts of types and sizes and types. Each Job was varied.

Although there were specialized Jobs, a large amount of the Jobs was shared with many, and were common, such as Swordsman, Magician, Witch, Alchemist, and so on.

But the more complicated their names turned to be, the rarer they would become to be acquired, and well, harder too.

The majority of the people didn't knew what really triggered a person to get a Job Skill.

You might work your entire life as a swordsman and never get the Job, it was such as sporadic at that.

People had no power over it, and due to this, those that prayed a lot to the Gods they believed thought that by doing this, their chances on getting Jobs would become higher.

And due to many people praying to gods while working hard in their fields suddenly gained Jobs, the belief that Jobs were granted by Gods themselves began to expand across the Universe and all of its mortal inhabitants.

But Chaos learned the truth now. He had not pray to any God ever, so he knew that they didn't gave him this power.

However, the one that gave it was the Universe Core.

The core of this Universe saw Chaos as someone important and impressive, and therefore, it gifted two Job Skills to him.

Therefore, through this, he realized that Jobs are gifted by just the System itself and the one that administrates it, the Universe Core!

Praying actually didn't increased the chances for anything. Jobs were merely given to anyone in a whim whenever it felt they were worthy. Perhaps it was like a gift of destiny itself.

Or not? There were even villainous beings that got Jobs, so the Universe Core didn't distinguished between good and evil. Chaos remember Jobs such as Enslaver to exist, and many pirates had jobs between their captains, despite how bastard they were.

”Could it be that Praying has no relation and it was all just random at the end? It was just a coincidence… or maybe it wasn't…” thought Chaos.

He wished he could talk with the universe core itself, but he knew that was just impossible. How could someone even do such a thing?

Maybe through the system?

He gave it a try.

”Can I speak with you?” he asked to the system window.
