Class Advancement

"Damn I feel rich! With 136500 XP I will finally able to upgrade my skills!"

Full of excitement, I open the status window.

[XP: 136500]

"Alright, now is the time to focus." I walked towards the stone table and sat on top of it.

"Alright, Let´s not get ahead and spend everything on pointless stuff." I quickly calmed down and started to think what the best use of all this XP is.

"Since my evolution was at level 10, shouldn´t my class also get upgraded when it reaches level 10? Since it is relatively cheap with my current XP storage."

Upgrading my Class from level 7 to level 10 wasn´t that expensive. It only cost me 3600 XP for me to reach level 10, although it was quite a lot for my past self.

For the current me it was nothing!

[Undead Warrior level has increased from Lv.7 to Lv.8]

[Undead Warrior level has increased from Lv.8 to Lv.9]

[Undead Warrior level has increased from Lv.9 to Lv.10]

Strength Increased by 6, Agility Increased by 3 and Endurance Increased by 3]

[You gained 3 Attribute Points]

[You reached the maximum level of the Undead Warrior class!]

[In order to advance into a higher tier class a mission has been assigned]

[Mission: Increase your skill [Lower Weapon Mastery Lv.1] to level 10 to unlock the class advandged]

"So it isn´t the same as the race evolution, huh? Even a requirement has to be met to upgrade my class. Well, it doesn´t sound difficult."

Without much of an expression (Not like I can make one, heh) I quickly pressed the upgrade button of the [Lower Weapon Mastery Lv.1]

Since every upgrade cost 100 more in total the amount I need was 13500 XP in total.

[Lower Weapon Mastery level has increased from Lv.1 to Lv.2]

[Lower Weapon Mastery level has increased from Lv.2 to Lv.3]

[Lower Weapon Mastery level has increased from Lv.3 to Lv.4]

...

[Lower Weapon Mastery level has increased from Lv.9 to Lv.10]

[The Skill Lower Weapon Mastery reached this maximum level]

[Lower Weapon Mastery Lv.10 turns into Intermediate Weapon Mastery Lv.1]

[Intermediate Weapon Mastery Lv.1]: Your knowledge of weapons allows you to effectively use all kinds of weapons and to some extent predict your enemy actions.

"..." Though upgrading 9 whole levels towards a skill, the information that was put in my head made me dazed for a whole minute.

"Tch... I should even upgrade it slower...now I got a headache." After waiting for a minute for the headache to go away I continued through my class advancement.

[Mission Completed! Class advancement is unlocked]

[Undead Spell Blade]

[Undead Swordsman]

[Undead Guardian]

[Undead Lancer]

[Undead Mercenary]

"Wow, instead of three choices I get five on my class change? Let´s see what every class has to offer..."

When I opened to see the description of the various classes, I realized that...

"Ugh..why is there so much text?"

After taking my time to read through the classes I pondered what to choose.

"The Spell Blade is the same class as this Rapha guy which focuses on magic and sword, which make them a caster and a melee fighter at the same time. But at the cost of neither mastering the arts of magic or the sword..."

If I were to take this bath I will probably unlock skills similar to my wind blade, although it sounds attractive it basically makes you good at every situation but weaker against someone that mastered the arts of magic or of weapon mastery...

As for the Swordman class, it is basically what it sounds like. Mastering the way of the sword and only the sword.

Similar to the Lancer and Guardian class. While the Lancer masters the spear and the Guardian the Sword and Shield.

If I were to summarize these three classes it would be either the Lancer or the Swordman as pure offensive. With the Guardian class being in the middle of those two, good at defense and offense.

"Hmm... the mercenary class also sounds interesting... Being able to use multiple weapons at the same time doesn´t sound so bad, but it has the same problem with the Spell Blade class."

Basically a jack of all trades master of none!

"Ugh, why do I have to choose only 1!? Can´t I have them all?" scratching my skull with my hand I felt like I was in a dilemma.

"Alright, let's eliminate the Lancer and the Mercenary out of the game early on. I already like using the sword instead of the spear and the mercenary doesn´t sound that attractive.

At best the class sounded exotic.

"Now, with those gone only Spell Blade, Swordman and Guardian remain..." Since I don`t have a time limit like the evolution it allowed me to think about the choice carefully.

And about 1 hour later I finally decided to pick my class!

[Your class changed from Undead Warrior Lv.10 to Undead Guardian Lv.1]

"Sigh... seems like only when my race evolves I get to experience this heavy feeling of pleasure again." Although I felt a little disappointed by it, I didn´t think much of it.

Me choosing the guardian class wasn´t an easy one.

Although I was mostly interested in the spell blade class since it used magic, I quickly dismissed the idea of becoming one.

The reason why I didn´t choose this class was mostly caused by the human named Rapha. Remembering our fight back then there was a clear difference between our swordplay. If for example Rapha had this 45 intelligence somewhere else disrupted I would even not have a change, to begin with.

Just imaging him fighting an opponent with 90 strength would even be absurd!

There was only death against such an opponent!

But fortunately, he had put these stats into intelligence to be able to use magic. Although this magic was powerful, it wasn´t able to kill me at point-blank range. Thus making me abandon the idea of magic now.

As for not choosing the swordsman class...

It was mostly through preference!

Like, I already had a skill that needed a shield in order to be used!

Yes, I am talking about the [Shield Bash] skill!

It already proved this usefulness and letting it rot in the skill bar for all my eternity will be unpleasant to see.

It was similar to a feeling when you get a really rare item in an MMO but cause of your class you can´t equipped it!

Even though you know that this item is really good, they are no point if you can´t use it!

You will simply look at it frustrated!
