"Where can I sign up for that subjugation?"
"Are you serious?" Fila frowned. "I don't know if you're ready for this. Numerous will swarm the group and turn the entire subjugation party into chaos. This is why it's going to be extremely dangerous to fight so many enemies at once."
"But you said…" Albert glanced at Alisa and stopped.
Alisa understood that gaze. Fila said the subjugation would be nothing but assured because she took care of the enemies, so she explained, "Even then, there will be casualties. That's why she doesn't suggest you go with the subjugation party."
"Is that so?" Albert thought for a moment. "How strong are they?"
"I'm not very sure about this year. However, I believe they are quick and can fight in an orderly manner."
'Hmm? They're not saying anything about level? Aren't you supposed to say their level to give people a quick rundown?' Albert became suspicious. 'Bonkey, do the people in this world not know about levels?'
[I have no extensive knowledge about the world.]
'…' He fell silent and wondered, 'Should I try to see whether they know anything about level?'
After contemplating for a moment, he asked, "How high are their levels?"
"Hmm? Sorry, what? Are you talking about the wolf's strength? I think I have explained it to you."
"Ah, sorry. It is the classification I have always used to know whether I can fight them or not." Albert immediately waved his hand, stopping the conversation. He knew that level wasn't a thing in this world, so he shouldn't mention it to anyone else.
"Since you're close to Fila, I don't mind bringing you with me, but it's hard to protect someone while fighting these wolves. Hence, I will test your ability." Alisa tried to give Albert a chance. "He's new, right? I think it's best to measure his strength with this spar."
"Well…" Fila looked down. She shared the same sentiment since she was curious about it, but in the end, the choice was Albert's, not her.
"I will take that chance." Albert agreed without hesitation. He also wanted to see how strong a level 39 warrior is to make sure the gap between each level. Besides, he wouldn't die in a spar, making this a perfect chance to learn.
"Good. You can go back here early in the morning. We're going to set off tomorrow, so make sure you bring all your equipment in case you succeed." Alisa nodded with a smile.
"Thanks." Albert smiled back.
"Well, I have done my business here." Alisa turned to Fila. "Post it as an emergency quest. They're really close to this town, so let's kill them before there are unnecessary casualties on our side. Warn others as well."
"Got it." Fila nodded with a serious expression.
After that, Alisa walked away and went to a table, grabbing her beer while shouting, "Alright, you guys. I have made you all wait. Let's party!"
"Oh!"
Seeing that Alisa had started partying with her friends, Fila said, "Wait for me here. I'm going to process your ID Card."
"Yes."
Fila opened the door behind her and returned a minute later, bringing a small white card with a few words on it.
She then asked, "Your full name?"
"Albert Gran."
"Okay. I'm just confirming this… You're a Demon Dog, right?"
Albert remembered his race and nodded. "Yes. That's true."
"How about your job? Are you a warrior or something?"
"I don't understand that. What do you mean by a warrior?"
"Have you ever gone to the temple to receive a job and blessing that will power you up?"
"You can get stronger just by going to the temple?" Albert widened his eyes in surprise.
"So, you haven't…" Fila scratched the back of her head, wondering how Albert had been living this whole time. "We will leave it blank for now. I can update it for you after you get a job. Also, there's no temple in this place, so I guess you can wait for a merchant group to come to this place. They'll come every week, so three more days. You can ask them to bring you to another town and get it done before going back."
"I understand."
"Good." Fila then took out a needle and handed it to him. "I need a drop of your blood on this card."
"A drop of blood?" Albert widened his eyes and looked at the ID Card.
Name: Albert Gran
Sex: Male
Race: Demon Dog
Job: -
"Yeah. This card will recognize only your blood after this, so no one can accuse you of stealing this ID Card."
"Ah. It's pretty magical." Albert nodded.
"Well, the material is made of Memory Stone. Wait. Don't tell me you don't know this too?"
"I have no idea." Albert shook his head helplessly.
"Right…" Fila sighed. "Anyway, the Memory Stone can remember your blood and the Magic Power in it, so yeah…"
"Magic Power?" Albert tilted his head in confusion while screaming inwardly, 'Bonkey. There is magic in this world?'
[I have no knowledge. I will only apply the knowledge you know.]
'…' Albert fell silent for a moment and asked Fila. "What is Magic?"
"Well, I will be talking about the jobs first then. There are seven basic jobs you will receive to help your life. They are Villager, Leader, Warrior, Magician, Scout, Healer, and Ranger. Each of them has so many branches because the requirement to evolve your own job is to find your true self.
"It's like you feel like you're a Swordsman, so the Warrior job became a Swordsman. That's the simple version. Of course, I'm not that good at explaining this because the journey to find your true self is not that easy. I'm still a normal Villager, so I can't offer you any information about it."
Albert widened his eyes as his mind started going wild after hearing those jobs. He thought, 'Can I also get a job? It will be best if I get multiple… Well, since there's a Bonk Smasher, I think I'm a Warrior. But it will be funny if I can use Magic… Maybe Bonk Magic? Haha, I can't imagine that. Or Healing Bonk? Or can I shoot the Bonk Bat like an arrow if I get a Ranger job… Damn, my job will be easier with this shit."
