Class Awakening [4]

[14th Everdusk 2103]

A few minutes remained before the awakening of Lucas's class.

{Lucas's POV}

Hello, my name is Lucas, and today marks four years since I was transmigrated to this world. It's similar to mine, except this one has been ravaged by monsters that arrived after a mysterious energy known as mana invaded.

Dungeons and rifts opened up everywhere, and monsters flooded in, decimating over half of humanity.

However, beings known as hunters, awakened during this crisis, began humanity's resurgence and halted our total annihilation.

These hunters possess unique classes that aid them in combating the monsters, allowing them to defeat them with ease and grow stronger.

It's been over eighty years since then, and today is the day I've been eagerly anticipating—I will become a hunter too.

When I first arrived, like the main characters in stories, I attempted to summon my 'golden finger' that would propel me to stardom, but to no avail, and four years have passed in waiting.

But I'm not concerned; perhaps I wasn't granted a system, but instead, a super cool class.

And so, I find myself waiting in line for the ceremony to commence.

Following the awakening of Lyre, I pondered the potential of my class, knowing it would be significant.

Then, unexpectedly, Miss Tess—not my sweetheart, of course—summoned me to the stage. I complied, taking my place in whatever formation this was.

I placed my hands upon the crystal, anticipating the imminent event.

Initially, a light dazzled my eyes, then a strange sensation spread through me, as if something within was loosening and shattering. I looked up, expecting to see my reflection change, but nothing occurred—my hopes were dashed. Yet, in that moment of despair, something extraordinary happened that altered my mood entirely.

{[Draconic God Mage system] is now active. A suitable host with a latent dragon bloodline has been identified, and synchronization has commenced.}

{1%...3%...6%...8%...32%...64%...78%...89%...99%...100%}

{Synchronization and bonding processes are complete.}

{The host's current Mage <E > rank class is being dismantled. The unique class of Battle Mage<E > (Growth-type) is being assigned to the host.}

{The system will aid the host in becoming the ultimate warrior.}

{May the host ascend to become the supreme Dragon God, reigning supreme over all beings.}

{A talent voucher has been dispatched to the inventory, and internal information transfer is pending.}

{It is advised that the host find a place to sit, as the process may induce dizziness.}

In a matter of seconds, many things within me changed, perhaps even awakening the dragon bloodline alongside my class. 

Yet, an E-rank mage class was still inferior.

It seemed like a curse to anyone who possessed it. I halted the system from broadcasting this information as my image was seen by all.

I was on the verge of happiness when the fear skill was displayed by that image for all to see, which might attract trouble, so I decided not to join any guild until I was strong enough to fend for myself.

My joy was short-lived when the crystal revealed my E rank, and I noticed many people laughing at me. However, there were those who weren't, like Tess, Helen, Lyre, and a boy I hadn't met before who looked at me with sympathy. I was determined to care for my people as any good person would.

I turned down the persistent recruitment offer from old Darian, knowing they could easily track the improvement in my class rank.

Afterward, I stepped off the stage and approached Tess, who looked at me with pity, a sentiment I didn't appreciate.

She gave me a look when I called her 'Tess' in public, which angered me, as I planned to reprimand her severely at home later.

Yes, she and I were in a secret relationship. Two years ago, I rescued her from some hooligans who had harassed her and used a technique to increase her sensitivity and induce sleep. I helped her get home, and the incident deeply involved us both in this matter. Nevertheless, I am glad that now we can be content, live life freely, and no longer need to pretend in front of others.

Furthermore, I will ensure that I love her alongside any other lovers who may fall in love with me or vice versa, as no influential man has just one wife, nor does it concern me if they do.

And that's how I found myself at the back of the student lines, sitting beneath a tree, watching my class undergo the awakening. Even Lyre was below me now, with this growth-type battle mage class.

A few minutes later, our class completed the trial of awakening.

Now, only three classes remained to finish the ceremony.

While they proceeded, I decided to retrieve my vouchers from my inventory and review my skills for dungeon diving after this.

As it happens every year, I was familiar with all the procedures.

"Okay, system, open my talent voucher," I said, watching as my system revealed the voucher and the wheel, adorned with many question marks, began spinning. It halted in front of a tile with a unique purple hue.

I was eager, hoping for something good, but what appeared before me was astounding.

{Congratulations, host, on drawing the talent.}

{The talent you have gained is: Draconic Insight (SSS Rank)}

__

The revelation blew my mind; today might just be my lucky day, a culmination of four years' worth of stored fortune, as if the goddess of luck was on my side. First, I acquired a system, and now, a talent of the highest level.

"Hey, system, quickly show me my status screen," I exclaimed in joy.

{Acknowledged, host.}

I was amazed by the things and was eager to see the description of my class and things.

__

Class: Novice Battle Mage (E Rank)

Description:

A beginner's version of the Battle Mage class, the Novice Battle Mage focuses on enhancing physical combat with basic elemental magic. Though simple, it provides a solid foundation for those seeking to master both magic and melee.

[Skills]:

Arcane Strike

Imbues a weapon or fist with raw magical energy, increasing physical damage for a short period and adding a small magical shockwave with each strike.

Mana Shield

Generates a temporary barrier that absorbs a small amount of damage, protecting the user from direct hits.

Fire ball

Generates a ball of flames that inflict damage to the enemy and give them a burn status effect with a small probability.

Class Benefits: +10 STATS FOR EVERY LEVEL UP

Talent Name: Draconic Insight (SSS Rank)

Description:

Draconic Insight is an ancient, legendary talent that allows its wielder to unlock the hidden potential within any skill by transforming it into a Dragon Language Skill. Through this talent, the user gains access to the primordial knowledge of dragons, enabling them to imbue their abilities with the power of the dragon's ancient magic and elemental forces. Once a skill is converted into the Dragon Language Skill, it becomes exponentially more powerful, transcending its normal limitations and tapping into the primordial power of dragons.

Abilities:

Dragon's Voice (Skill Enhancement):

The user can speak in the ancient language of dragons, channeling the resonance and power of the dragon's voice into their skills. When a skill is invoked in Dragon Language, it gains increased effectiveness, enhanced elemental properties, and the ability to affect multiple targets.

Dragon's Might (Amplification):

Every skill activated through Draconic Insight gains a temporary boost in power, with the skill's damage, range, and duration being drastically enhanced for a short period. The more the user taps into this power, the greater the risk of exhaustion.

Dragon's Curse (Debuff & Overload):

When using Dragon Language Skills, the user can impose a Dragon's Curse on affected enemies, lowering their defense, speed, or regeneration for a period of time. The curse increases in strength the longer the skill remains active, and enemies affected by it are marked by the aura of dragons, making them vulnerable to further attacks.

Dragon's Wisdom (Skill Evolution):

The user gains the ability to evolve and adapt their Dragon Language Skills over time. With each use of a Dragon-enhanced skill, the skill itself becomes more refined, growing in power and complexity. This grants the user an adaptive mastery over their abilities, allowing them to tackle more challenging foes with increasing efficiency.
