[Item Name: Regular Greatsword][Item Grade: C+][Level Restriction: 15][+100 Attack Power][Information: An item made using basic materials and minerals. It is a unique item that cannot be duplicated due to the conditions when the item was made.][Unique Trait – Berserk][Information: When the wielder of this item reaches low health, he or she will gain additional attack power boost. This boost is directly proportionate to the percentage of health that’s lost when the passive is activated.][Information: There is no direct percentage linked as to when Berserk will activate. But it will not occur until the user has dropped below 50% health.]This is the first item that Asther is able to make. There is one thing that surprised him right away and, that is the color given off by the item. It’s purple. Every item has its name colored. There are six variations to this.The first and the most common ones are white. The second grade is green. Then there’s the third which is blue. Then comes
“I’m a cleaver.”This is Parch’s answer when asked what his job class is. Asther didn’t expect both the soldiers to have a job class that doesn’t seme to belong to a swordsman. But he might be wrong.For one thing, Asther doesn’t know what a Cleaver, job class is. That’s why he needed to ask Parch to elaborate on this further.“A cleaver? What’s that?”This is the first time that he has encountered the job class. This doesn’t come as a surprise since he’s only lived inside Jhinn for more than a month. He doesn’t have enough knowledge and experience of this world yet.“It’s a job class that uses up heavier weapons to strike.” Parch said. “Basically, my body is more fit to hold giant claymores and axes. Those are the kinds of weapons that would suit me best.”“Then why did you enlist in the military as a swordsman?” Asther asked. “Your job class doesn’t sound normal to me.”“That’s true.” Parch replied. “It isn’t a normal job class. But I can’t pay the fee that’s required to join the be
“You both have great form.”It was only after Asther said these words that the two soldiers noticed him. They were even startled in fact. Neither of them sensed his presence until he made it known. Asther did this intentionally of course. He wondered how strong his stealth skill still is and, used the opportunity to test this out.“How long have you been standing there sir?” Tyre asked.“Long enough.” Asther replied. “I saw a couple of things on your form but before I discuss that, I have a little something for you.”Asther took out his magical pouch. From it, he drew out the items that belonged to the two soldiers. He handed it to them immediately which surprised them both.“Where did you get these sir?” Parch asked.“Those? I made them of course.” Asther said nonchalantly.He wants to hide as much information about himself as possible. But he also believes that something like his craftsmanship won’t be something he can keep hidden. If he continues supplying items, weapons, and equip
“My passive is called Cleave.” Parch said.“That’s a pretty bland joke don’t you think?” Asther said.“No sir. It’s true. My passive is called Cleave.”“You’re a Cleaver and your passive is Cleave? Who thought of these names?” Asther sighed. “Anyway, what does the passive do.“The passive allows me to land a guaranteed critical strike when I make my fifth attack.”“Wait, isn’t that actually a really good skill?” Asther asked.“It’s supposed to be sir.”“Supposed to be? What do you mean?”“Well, the skill allows this passive to activate, only when I’ve met the requirement through the use of a heavy weapon.” Parch said.“Dear lord.” Asther realized the meaning behind these words right away.Parch is a soldier. A swordsman at that. This means that his weapon is a regular broadsword, the same as any other soldier of this category. This also means one thing…that his passive has never activated. Not even once.“My weapon prevents me from getting the passive to proc.” Parch said, confirming
“Alright, do you think you can do better this time around?” Asther asked.“Yeah, I think I’m getting the hang of it.” Tyre replied.There is an obvious look of nervousness on Tyre’s face. He has tried defeating the hobgoblin thrice now but, has never found success in this endeavor. Every time he did this, he is just a bit short from getting what he wants. There’s this gap that he can’t put his finger on.Of course, Asther already knows what this is. But he doesn’t want to tell the soldier. He wants Tyre to learn from experience. Because unlike Octavia and Claire who both has a good battle sense and quick uptake, the soldiers don’t share this same thing. That’s why Asther wants to teach them through the same training.Hence, Asther isn’t only guiding Tyre. He’s guiding parch as well. He doesn’t observe them both at the same time. Rather, Asther is changing from one point of focus to another. He’d focus on Parch for one match against the hobgoblin and, as soon as this finishes, he will
Tyre still couldn’t believe what just happened. He did it. He’s able to defeat Asther’s undead hobgoblin through the use of his real job class.There was a kind of high that the adrenaline put him on. But as soon as this finished, he felt the effects of having to move his body in that manner. His legs which were evidently shocked from the ordeal finally gave in. Making him slump to the ground.He then felt himself being a bit short of breath. It’s not anything to be concerned about but, he was a bit surprised that he didn’t feel this while fighting. There wasn’t any kind of exhaustion, just the thrill of waiting for the chance to strike. And the pumping of this emotion that is brought when the said objective is finally at hand.Asther clapped at this soldier. The effort is worth it after all. The sound that the necromancer created, made Tyre look at his direction. And upon realizing that it is Asther that the soldier is looking at, he began speaking.“Did you see that sir?” He asked.
“How’s the weapon wielding doing?”Parch stretched his body a couple of times while waiting for Asther. The soldier is holding a greatsword that’s almost the same height as him. This same weapon is also four times as broad compared to a broadsword. That’s why the weapon would be a lot more difficult to get the hang of. That is, for someone who doesn’t fit the criteria for wielding it.Unlike Tyre who needed to defeat the hobgoblin first before attaining a new passive, Parch gained one as soon as he held on to his weapon. This might seem like an unfair treatment but, this much is necessary for someone like him who wields a large weapon. Especially because of the passive that he gained.[Skill Name: Unbalanced Strength][Skill Type: Passive][Information: When wielding a heavy weapon, the owner of the skill will be granted +10 points in strength.]It’s a basic skill which doesn’t seem to be much. But in actuality, this passive has allowed Parch to attack at the same speed as before, eve
“We’re gonna fight?” The two soldiers said in a shocked tone.This is the part of the training that came after defeating the undead. In actuality, Asther had different plans for them. But because of the system, he needed to stick with this option.With the two soldiers getting comfortable with their weapon of choice, the system has recognized their improvement. It allowed them to clear the first part of their progressing quests and, because of this, a new quest opened up for them. In fact, the same quest appeared for both soldiers.[Quest Name: Brothers at Arms][Quest Type: Progressing][Information: The soldiers Tyre and Parch have developed a deeper bond as comrades. With them both being able to wield the real weapon that goes with their job class, this comradeship has turned into something of a rivalry between the two.][Quest Requirement: Make the soldiers spar against one another][Reward for the Winner: Increase in main status connected to the job class. +10 status points.][Re
