Volume 3 Chapter 3 (2/2)

Thanks to Phil’s preparations beforehand, we managed to enter the room with the class selection statue. Phil began praying to the statue as the ceremony to obtain her classes begin. A list of selectable classes should begin flowing into Phil’s brain. Meanwhile, Phil opened her eyes wide in surprise. Since it’s her second time performing this ceremony, it’s hard to imagine Phil being surprised by anything.

[Nee, Youya. Try not to be surprised but a class that I haven’t heard of came up as an option.] (Phil)

Could it be another unique class? But Phil who was capable of being a Spirit Archer from the beginning already had an exclusive class. Just what could this class be. The fact that the new class is only appearing as an option now meant that the condition for unlocking the class has been met after resetting her level. In my case, there weren’t any new classes that showed up when choosing a different class. In that case, it should be a class that can only be unlocked by elves or by a Spirit Archer who has performed a level reset. Regardless, it’s an extremely difficult condition which meant that the new class should be an extremely powerful one.

(Note: I’m wondering if the author forgot that the benefits for Magic Knights was customizing their own magic spells lol)

[Are you sure you didn’t have the class the first time?] (Youya)

[Yes. There is no mistake. It’s highly possible that resetting your level was one of the conditions to unlock the class.] (Phil)

I swallowed my saliva as my expectations grew.

[What is the name of the class?] (Youya)

[Uhm. Druid.. It’s a name that I have only heard of in a fairy tale.] (Phil)

[I have heard of that name too. It’s the name of the class that the elven ancestors.. The High Elves used to have.] (Youya)

Druids were people who lived in harmony with spirits and nature.They were similar with Spirit Archers in that they both use bows, however unlike Spirit Archers who were capable of communicate with spirits of the Wind (Lightning) Attribute, druids were capable of communicating with spirits of all natural mana. Even during the game era, there was never a character who had the class of a Druid, although that name occasionally appeared in the stories of traditions of the High Elves

My curiosity was piqued as I wanted to know what kind of class was the druid. It is a class that you wouldn’t know about unless you chose it. However, if the class turns out to be a dud, then we would get to know about the class. It’ll be safer to choose a Spirit Archer which is definitely going to be a strong class, I know that. However.

[Phil, If possible I want you to be adventurous now. It’s a class that was used by the High Elves. Based on the stories, it’s a class that uses a bow and every single magical attribute. If that is correct, we will be able to rectify our party’s crucial weakness and even take advantage of your skill. However, the gamble we are taking is with your life. We can reset your level again once you reach level 50, but that isn’t easy to do.] (Youya)

Your level can be reset any number of times, however the bonuses will only come once. Each subsequent reset will not come with any benefits. They merely throw away the effort placed in up until that point.

[Youya, don’t make such a miserable face. I’m the same as you. There are times when you have to be adventurous no matter what. And this is one of those times. In fact, I had already made up my mind. When the class Druid appeared in my mind, I could already feel the power hidden behind the class. My body, is telling me to choose it.] (Phil)

Phil replied me and smiled. The next moment, Phil’s body was enveloped in light.

Shortly after, the light dissipated. Somehow, the atmosphere around Phil changed as she checked her status and possible skills before nodding her head.

[I think I understand it now. Druid is a good class. My own individual firepower has decreased quite a bit, however it is a good class especially for Youya’s party, the best actually. Just as you said, I’m able to cast both fire and water magic. However, that isn’t all.] (Phil)

[What kind of class is a Druid? Could you explain clearly?] (Youya)

[It’s faster for me to show you what I can do. Let’s hurry up and head to the hidden room to maximise my status gain! If that’s the case, then I’ll be able to showcase them to you on the way.] (Phil)

Phil approaches me and gently pulls my hand.

[Wait a moment. I can’t enter the beginner dungeons.] (Youya)

Adventurers who have levels over 10 are unable to enter the beginner dungeons meant for novice adventurers. It wasn’t just a system in place, there were also guards place to prevent forced entry. If someone were to fake their level and enter the dungeon, the guild would use their power to place wanted posters all around the world and start a witch hunt.

[Don’t worry about it. I’ve done the necessary paperwork. I’ve accepted a quest for us. Ja-jaan! A patrol quest for the beginner dungeons! The monsters that appear in the dungeons can change on rare occasions, thus quests are given out regularly to confirm whether there are any new monsters in the dungeons, allowing newcomers to explore the dungeons comfortably. I’ve already accept the quest.] (Phil)

[If there was such a thing then say that earlier. You’re really a good receptionist.] (Youya)

As expected of Phil. The quest wasn’t stolen by anyone else. The path to the hidden room is already dangerous as it is, it’ll be difficult for a level 1 adventurer to arrive at the room intact without Presence Detection.

[It’ll be a waste not use a useful connection right? Even though it’s a beginner dungeon it’s still scary to go around alone at level 1. Youya, please escort me properly~.] (Phil)

[Leave it to me, princess.] (Youya)

I grabbed Phil’s hand and headed towards the entrance of the dungeon. Phil always had a nonchalant look in the guild, however she was always the object of all male adventurers’ desire as the receptionist idol. However this time, all the men’s sight were glued onto her cute battle uniform rather than the usual receptionist uniform. Even the other female adventurers were staring at phil with longing eyes.

Not just that, there were people who were looking at my arm which was being hugged tightly by Phil without caring about her surroundings. It looked as if someone had lit everyone’s clothes on fire. Well experiencing this sort of things is nice once in a while, Phil is in a good mood and I get to show off my superiority to the people in the guild.

[Phil, be sure to show me the amazing power of a Druid.] (Youya)

[Yes! Especially since I have plenty of skill points from the bonuses, I’ll be sure to learn as many amazing skills as possible. Look forward to it.] (Phil)

Let’s take a look at the power of the Druids.

I’m looking forward to see the power that Phil considers to be the strongest for my party. Just what could it be?12
