Chapter 44 - Forgist and Charmist (1/2)
Stella with her clear silver eyes, found a clean spot on the ground before taking out a small carpet and placing it on the ground. After the carpet was laid out, she sat down on it while she got Nightin to sit opposite her ”Hey,why are you still standing there? Go on and take a seat opposite of me, hehe.”
Nightin shook his head as he slumped against the wall and slid down,his sword was placed beside him. Nightin sat down cross legged as he started to initiate the conversation ”Hey Star,are you going to tell me the reason now?”
Stella broke out in laughter once again before she started to speak ”Before I start talking about me and Gaven. I'll have to fill you in about Forgists and Charmists first.”
In this world,there are various professions. These professions were divided into the nine great professions known to people.
Alchemists are the ones who form elixirs which are widely spread in the world,making it the highest ranked profession of the nine.
After Alchemists are array masters who can create many arrays which can be utilised in most situations. Be in in combat or support, they would definitely have a purpose to serve.
The third and fourth are known as the Forgists and Charmists respectively. Even though they are ranked below alchemists and array masters, one shouldn't underestimate their importance in the world of cultivation.
Forgists are well known for their ability to create mechanics and puppets. Out of all the nine professions, this profession is the one which stands out the most.
A Forgist is a profession which even mortals can learn. To the mortals,Forgists are known as mechanics or engineers. It's said that for a Forgist, realm will always be second compared to their life equipment. The stronger one's life equipment is,the higher their personal strength.
A life equipment is the strongest weapon which a Forgist would have crafted in his life, they would seal their life force together with it. The thing about the life equipment is that it can be changed as long as there's a stronger one in place of it.
As for a Charmist, they specialise in the making of charms, talismans and trinkets. All of them may seem simple, but the production cost and effects are definitely worth it.
Charms can be used to create illusions and trick their enemies or used to assist their ally giving them a increase in strength.
Talismans are items which can only be used once. They are usually used for escape or sometimes to form up a communication in the dark.
As for trinkets, they are something like small accessories and can benefit a cultivator immensely. Such as increasing their wisdom slightly or speeding up their cultivation speed. Trinkets may be the most useful item to own for any cultivator, but they're extremely rare and can never be found on the market.
As for the other five great professions,they are known as...
Nightin finished listening to Stella's explanation as he posed a question towards her ”Star,I understand what you're trying to say. But what does this have to do with you and Gaven being a couple?”
Stella smiled as she turned her head towards the tunnel, presumably looking for traces of Gaven. Taking out a charm,she told Nightin ”This is a charm which me and Gaven have done together,both of us have one each.”
Nightin was puzzled, it's understandable why a Charmist and Forgist would work together with each other,but what does this have to do with them breaching the rules between races to become a couple?
Stella laughed, seemingly mocking herself for her own foolishness ”This token is both a trinket and a mechanic. Both Gaven and me have the ability to teleport towards each other and access the mind of the other person easily. To put it simply, telepathy is what it gives us and it also have various functions. With just the functions alone,even taking the life of a Martial Saint is possible,hehe.
A tinge of disappointment could be seen on Stella's face even though she hid it quickly, it's pretty obvious that she felt guilty towards Gaven. Because of her race and existence,Gaven had cut off his ties with the outside world and resided here with her. She may a demon,but she's kind by nature.
Even though there are countless of kind demons who have never harmed humans in the outside world, cultivators have never spared them. In this world, humans themselves might even be more ruthless and cruel than the demon beasts.
Stella brushed her guilt off as she faced Nightin again. The sudden hidden attractiveness Stella showed Nightin had forced him to avert his gaze away,he doesn't want to fall into a trance again.
