Chapter 8 : Class Quest

Leiu was surprised as most of the classes were special, he really didn't expect this, he didn't do anything that special so he was startled to see so many good choices.

It's a pity he didn't know that what he did what practically impossible, who is crazy enough to hunt Bees and Rabbit for several hours? For most people, it's a waste of time.

The choice was hard, it's like putting several types of delicious cakes in front of you and telling you to only chose and eat one, it was that kind of situation.

He couldn't choose immediately, he was not that reckless, well the choice he excluded from the beginning is the 'Swordsman', obviously, the others are way better, just by their name, he could kind of imagine what each does.

What caught his eyes the most is those 'Epic' and 'Unique' Classes, the others are not bad too, but if going by rarity, then 'Epic' and 'Unique' looked more appealing.

"Hey, Old man, can't I see what each Class do?"

The old man glanced at him, somewhat annoyed and said

"What? So many good classes are proposed to you and you still want an explanation for them? Not everything is easy, boy, it's already amazing that you have this many extraordinary class choices, others would even dream of having just a 'Rare' class, just trust your gut and choose what you think suits you!"

Although he seemed a bit angry, the old man praised Leiu and resumed reading his dusty book.

Leiu didn't mind or didn't seem to notice the attitude of the old man as he was engrossed in the classes, such good classes appeared so he can't pick one at random.

5 minutes passed yet Leiu didn't move as he pondered about what to choose, choosing the main class is one of the most important decisions in every similar game, after thinking again and again, he was stuck between two jobs.

'Blade Dancer and Dark Knight... Hmm what to choose?'

The two classes seemed very interesting and powerful, he leaned more to Blade Dancer, with how he fought previously, he judged that it would suit him alright, as for Dark Knight, it was a complete mystery to him.

First of all, what's a knight, usually, a knight class would hold a shield and a one-handed sword, maybe a spear or a lance, that's what most games do at least, but dark knight, what is even the difference between a knight and a dark knight?

A mysterious and Unique class, it really intrigued someone as curious as Leiu, who wanted to unravel everything and learn about what is unknown, and this class definitely fits that criteria.

"Huh, so you finally made a decision, good good! I like your personality, brat!"

As the old man discovered that Leiu finally made a decision, he nodded in satisfaction as if approving his choice and praised him yet again.

"Old man, I choose Dark Knight!"

The old man nodded and replied

"I knew you would pick it, hehe, but it's not so easy to obtain it, first you need to finish the class quest, you sure you can handle it?"

Leiu just waved his hand in annoyance and said

"Just give me the quest."

Leiu was annoyed because the old man first acted coldly then changed his attitude, he seemed to switch between the two behaviors every 10 seconds, it's really annoying, one second he's praising him, the other he's acting coldly and ignoring him, why would not feel mislead and confused?

"Alright alright, no need to have such bad attitude.. *sigh*"

The old man dismissively waved his hand, and a message popped in front of Leiu.

Dark Knight (Unique) : A very special and Unique class only given to ones who showed extraordinary abilities and fulfilled specific requirements. The darkness is your friend and the shadows are your companions. Use the night to your advantage and slay countless enemies with the help of naught but darkness. The Dark Knight Class is a heavy damage dealer class, yet it can have decent defensive capabilities with some unique attacks.

Quest : Finish the 3 trials and you will get the class.

Difficulty : A


"Old man! What's with this A difficulty, it's just a class quest!"

The old man grinned while responding to the infuriated Leiu

"Brat, don't blame me now, it's you who chose this class so it's to be expected for the quest to be A difficulty. It's a Unique class! Furthermore, if you fail, then you can't retry and it will be removed from the class choices along with the good other classes, you'll only have swordsman left, hehehe"

"You motherfu--"

Before he could finish, Leiu was teleported out of the place, he couldn't even finish his insult and express his depressing and angry emotions, he was startled for a second before he calmed down and gazed around him.

The quest said 3 trials, but it didn't say what are they or where, he was curious and confused about what's happening, it's a good thing he bought Health Potions and an armor because this quest automatically started without any warning.

Leiu could only calm himself down, free himself from the previous anger and irritation and try to think things through.

He was teleported into a dark place, there was no roof or nearby walls, he didn't even know where he was, the only thing he could feel is the ground, it didn't feel like a forest or a cave, it's a smooth ground so he had to be inside some kind of building.

Because of the darkness, he couldn't even see the ground, all he saw was darkness.

1..3...10 minutes passed yet nothing happened, no sound came out of any place, no enemies and no messages, Leiu already started roaming, but it seemed endless, it's like he either was walking in circles or this place was incredibly huge, the only thing he could hear was his footsteps.

After 10 minutes, Leiu managed to somehow see a bit, after all, any eye would get used to darkness after spending some time in it. He couldn't see far away, he just saw that the ground was jet black and his surroundings were no different, it even gave him the chills.

He didn't see any light around him, the more time passed, the more confused he felt, although the message said trials, it didn't explain anything.

'Am I supposed to find a way out or what?'

    It's been 30 minutes already, Leiu became annoyed rather than confused, it's like a prank more than a trial, he began regretting choosing this class, first, he thought that this may be a bug, but there's no way there is a bug when it's just launched, right? After all, there was a beta test a few months ago, a game like this should have been tested by the developers countless time to find any bugs.That assumption was quickly deleted from his mind, but if it's not a bug, then what the bloody hell is happening.

    Leiu Stamina was almost depleted, 2 points left, his arms and legs trembling, barely able to stand, however, he persevered and his strong will and decent stats allowed him to hold on for thirty minutes, continuously slaying anything that bore its fangs at him.Leiu truly reached his very limits, no matter how strong he is, he couldn't fight anymore, it took him 4 to 5 strikes to deal with beasts now, and even more, his two remaining potions are gone and his health decreased to 6, wounds and injuries covered his body and even the gloves were destroyed now.

    35 minutes or so passed, Leiu's Health and Stamina fully recovered, he equipped the old beginner's armor, which was totally useless, at least it wasn't totally destroyed like the newly bought one, as he saw the state of that armor, Leiu could only feel sadness and grief, he lost a whopping 3 silver for it, yet it didn't even last an hour!After taking a breath of fresh yet cold air, Leiu got up and headed upstairs, there is really no use staying here, he tried roaming the manor and inspecting the other rooms, but he couldn't step in them,

    As he faced the 4 wooden puppets, Leiu couldn't help but wipe the invisible cold sweat on his forehead, just thinking about that made him feel restless and uneasy.I mean, what are the chances that he could finish hundreds of those puppets, they would jump at him from all directions, unlike the dark beasts which had a large frame, these puppets could easily overwhelm him if they had enough numbers.While gritting his teeth, Leiu stood there, waiting for them to attack, although they gave him 30 seconds between each fight, it was n

    13 minutes or so later, Leiu stood up and finished the shaking puppet, his Stamina was fully recovered, so is his Health. Fortunately, his idea worked, maybe the system or the trial host let him do so as it was simply not possible to finish it without recovering Stamina, anyway, like this, he had more chance win to pass the trial.128 wooden puppet appeared, this time, even more types were added, they held wooden bows and had a set of arrows at their back, Leiu's gaze turned serious as he gazed at them, his previous happiness seemed to disappear and his face turned uglier than it already was.

    Not a great increase, but it was enough for him, Leiu was not sure if he can defeat the boss or not, but he was sure that he won't give up without putting a good fight. The boss looked threatening but every monster can be defeated if you can grasp its attacking routine....The giant puppet didn't just stay still, although it's slower than the normal puppet due to its size, that didn't mean it is weak, quite the opposite, in fact, each step it took made the ground shake for a moment.Leiu also charged at it,

Plus, it won’t be long before the Hell Gate appears.”Vins didn’t argue back, he solemnly nodded once. Although his relationship with Leiu was bad, there was no need to provoke him at any given opportunity.They were enemies, and the fact that Leiu actually came back to get him meant that, to some extent, his words had convinced him a bit, at least enough to let him come along.“In the meantime, we’re going after Void Rifts.

      Leiu spent quite a long time in the Studying Room. Unfortunately, the available information about the Reverie Comos was lacking and unsatisfactory. It just told him what he already knew: The Reverie Cosmos was a separate plane of existence in Mundus, not unlike the Harrowing. It was accessible only to those with ‘high’ spiritual energy, which was simply not enough to go on.Although, even if Leiu knew how to enter it, he wouldn’t go there, at least not now.There were much more pressing matters than delivering Lost Witch to the Reverie Cosmos. The Hell Gate was about to open and he needed to be there when it did. Once he was done with his pondering, Leiu went to talk to Sumbus Darrar.“So?”The old man was in the ‘Living Room’, gobbling down the delicious feast without a care in the world.After wiping his oily lips, the Necromancer awkwardly laughed,“Her name is Emilia. She told me she doesn’t remember what happened… only that you killed her and then she woke up after we killed

      Dark Knight: Cursed To Wander Alone

Whether it was his dirt-covered pale-face, his sweaty and greasy hair, his trembling and bloodied hands, or his shredded clothes.“Hold on. I’ll heal you.”With slow steps, she approached him, unaware that a tiny pit of flesh crawled on the ground and leapt at her arm.“Watch out!”Tenebris saw it first, but his warning came too late. Kusomi, panicking a bit, tried to the flesh but it dug into her skin and then went inside her body.Her body instantly flashed with a silver light, an attempt to use overwhelming energy to force out the worm-like flesh.“Ah…”Kusomi fell to her knees and let go of her estoc, her body convulsing and her mouth coughing blood.

It wasn’t Primordial Darkness or simply an overabundance of Darkness energy. This was something else entirely.Before anyone could speak, innumerable lightning bolts pierced through the ‘darkness’, shattering like glass and revealing an empty space not unlike space itself.There were star wars that were far, far away, but most noticeably, the majority of them were caught one supernova after the other.Leiu and Sumbus felt immense dread as an overwhelming pressure assaulted them, locking them into that empty space. Leiu tried to use the Darkness to protect himself but, surprisingly, it wouldn’t come out. It seemed unresponsive and ineffective as if something was sealing it away.Sumbus fared even worse as h

      “Huff… huff..”Leiu was gasping for air aboard the ship’s deck. Anne was hugging him, relieved that he made it out alive.Sumbus was also sitting down, his complexion paler than usual. Before returning to the surface, Leiu closed the Void Rift with the Primordial Darkness. He had less than 20% health remaining and his mind was still befuddled.“I’m… okay, Anne.”“Drink this.”She forced him to drink three Health Potions, which did help with the physical wounds.“Leiu.”The Mermaid Queen stood a couple of feet away.

I’m impressed, Tenebris.’While pretending as if he didn’t hear the voice, Tenebris looked to the side. Kusomi also properly sat up and stoically looked at him.“It hurt a bit. Other than that… it wasn’t anything special.”‘Hear that, dumbass? No chance you’re getting laid a second time.’After being pressed by the voice, Tenebris eventually relented and had sex with Kusomi. It wasn’t anything dramatic, and from beginning to end, it barely lasted an hour.Although he got to enjoy the soft body of a beautiful elf, Tenebris wasn’t that happy. He had hoped the two of them would ‘feel’ differently amidst the action and pleasure, but no such thing happened.The virgin elf was inexperienced, so he took the lead, but having sex like that didn’t really mean anything.

      With the help of the Dark Archmage’s spell, Leiu and Anne were able to dive underwater and breathe. The Void Incarnate, which wasn’t even a living creature, simply jumped down and transformed into somesort of a hideous hammerhead shark.Leiu really wanted to question it as it never said it could change its appearance, but now wasn’t the time.The four swam deeper and deeper until the Void Rifts were in sight. They let out ominous purple glows, all haphazardly scattered everywhere.Albeit not at full speed, Leiu was able to swiftly reach them and used Primordial Darkness to forcefully close them down. Oddly enough, no Voidspawn came out to attack him. Only Void Riftss were present, which, rather than fortunate, felt like a bad omen.Thus, as they kept descending closer and closer to the seafloor, Leiu got rid of any Void Riftss in the way. It was a tedious but not overly-taxing process.Eventually, however, they reached the two, aforementioned, big Void Riftss. They were massive, but

      “When is the Hell Gate going to open?”After talking with Elena and the rest, Leiu left Black Mountain City altogether. He looked at his newest companion, the fearful Sumbus Darrar.Startled, the old Necromancer looked at the red moon hanging in the sky. Night has yet to fall, but the moon stuck out like a store thumb. It was still waxing, albeit at a very slow speed.“Two weeks, at most.”“And where’s the gate?”“I… I can only locate it when it is about to open.”As he saw the suspicious stare of the Dark Knight, Sumbus vigorously nodded his head while waving his hands around. “I swear, Dark Knight! I do not dare lie to you!”Seeing how the old man behaved, it was hard to think of him as the one from the legends. He was like an obedient dog, following Leiu and doing everything asked of him.In fact, he was sensible enough to notice Leiu’s relationship with Anne, so he treated the Vampire with the utmost politeness and respect.[User, a suggestion: Eliminate the Administrator in-]‘I
