Asther continued his training with Octavia after an hour has passed. However, they didn’t proceed to combat training right away. Instead, what the two of them did is have a proper conversation on the new fighting style of Asther. Something which caught Octavia by surprise.

“You want me to do what?”

Asther sighed. “Dual wield. I need you to use wo blades instead of just one.”

“There’s no way in hell that something like that would ever be possible.” Claire replied.

“Are you doubting yourself?”

“Oh this is way beyond just doubting myself Asther.” She replied.

“What do you mean?”

“Come on. I already told you that I was trained by the academy from a young age. Using prophecy, they found out that I would be a sword user. And from that point on, I did nothing but train on how to use a SINGLE sword.” Octavia placed an emphasis on the word single because, she wanted Asther to take notice of this. And the necromancer did. However, it isn’t enough for Asther to stop in making Octavia follow what

    Asther and Octavia continued to train like crazy. There was nothing stopping them because, both of them are true fighters. Even though the knight doesn’t have that many on field experiences, her stamina alone is enough of a testament that she is taking her job class seriously.Asther watched everything from the corner. He keenly observed Octavia with his passives. Meanwhile, Octavia was fighting against the human type undead of Asther. The same ones that he took from the Ragencliff manor.There are three human type undead and two hobgoblin undead that are mixed into the match as well. These five fought against Octavia at the same time. None of them was letting up in aggression as well. Effectively pushing the female knight to a corner in no time at all.Although this happened quickly, it isn’t Octavia’s fault. The fault is with the fact that she’s using two blades instead of just one. This alone is making it difficult for her to fight because, she isn’t used to the dual wielding yet.

    The whole second day was devoted for nobody else but Octavia. Asther spent his time with her. He summoned his undead over and over again for her to fight. He made sure that she gets the hang of using dual swords before he leaves because, after this point, he needs to focus on the two soldiers.Within the span of that day, Asther found great success in this undertaking. He was able to do a lot of things. Aside from properly guiding Octavia, he was also able to accomplish three of her progression missions. This allowed Octavia to have a strong power spike.This is a good thing of course. However, Asther was beginning to experience the dilemma that comes with the progression of these quests. That is, the questions that would be raised by his allies.“Hey, I really feel like something’s weird here.” Octavia said.She tried cutting through a tree with her dual swords. She didn’t even use a skill to do so. And yet, her blades buried up to the middle of the tree.“See? Didn’t I just get way

    Before the day’s training could end, Asther decided to check up on his first trainee. The area where his allies train are separated by thick trees that seemingly made walls. This prevented them from distracting one another.But there is another reason why the setup is like this. It’s because Asther needs to keep the dignity of Claire. The kind of training that he’s making her go through is gruesome after all. To the point that it would be easy for Claire to throw up just from exhaustion or to have a look on her that seemed like she’s been sucked dry of all life.That is the kind of state which cannot be seen by Claire’s allies other than Asther. Sure Octavia saw her in a poor state yesterday. But the one that the knight saw was already the watered down version. Asther made sure that he properly helped Claire tidy herself up to the extent that’s possible before they faced the knight.That afternoon is different. Asther checked up on Claire right as soon as she finished her training. He

    The schedule of their third day inside the dungeon went like this. Claire needed to continue her stamina training. Asther made sure to provide her with enough stamina potions just like on the first days. It’s a bit expensive doing so of course but, he could definitely see some progress from this training.Claire is already at a stage where she requires less stamina potions for the duration of the day. Yesterday, she left two bottles unused. Meaning, there is already a considerable change to her stamina.Meanwhile, Octavia had to get more comfortable with using two blades at the same time. For her to do this, she needed competent enemies to fight against. That’s why Asther needed to use the demon masked hobgoblin and the bandit leader as her opponents.With this, Asther can finally take his sweet time in training the remaining members of the group. The two soldiers who are lucky enough to have travelled with Claire at that time. Tyre and Parch.“First things first.” Asther said. “I nee

    [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

  • The Greatest Sniper Reincarnates in a Fantasy World   Understanding Job Classes

    “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

  • The Greatest Sniper Reincarnates in a Fantasy World   The Two Soldiers

    “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

    [Notice: The quest, Defeat the Forest Guardians have been updated.][Forest Guardians defeated: 2/3]“Well, that’s a surprise.”Asther read this message as soon as he finished clearing up two more monster camps. The necromancer used the same combination that he did earlier on. He used the domain of the high ogre bloodbornes in order for his operation to go unnoticed and, as for the source of damage, Asther made use of something else this time around. He made use of his Direwolves and made these fight against the monsters over and over again.The necromancer did this in order to put a little test into practice. Surely enough, it yielded him positive results. But before we move on to this part of the story, let us first focus on the necromancer’s reaction to the news about his allies.Asther knew that this would happen sooner or later. After all, these are individuals that he trained himself. Apart from this, they are also partially blessed with the system. With the party function apply

    Against a Wyvern II

    The wyvern screamed from the amount of pain it experienced from the attack. This much is acceptable because, after all, it has finally been wounded. The wyvern probably never had any damage all of its life due to its thick scales. But there it is now, finally receiving the first bit of damage after a long time. And it isn’t even a slight scratch at that. The attack that hit it, dug deep into its flesh. Opening up a wound and leaving a burning sensation that drove the creature crazy.It began to flail its body around. The wyvern thrashed the pillars with the wild sweeping of its tail. This is accompanied by the swinging of its arms. Destroying almost the same number of pillars that its tail is capable of.This would’ve been the perfect opportunity to follow up the attack. If not for the fact that the frenzied state of the monster isn’t something that they can easily get close to. Nor would Claire and her allies chose to do so because of how dangerous it all looked. Since the monster is

    Against a Wyvern

    Blood red wings that seem to burn under the sunlight. Gleaming yellow eyes which pierced through everything it gazes upon. Crystal like claws that are sharp enough to make anyone uncomfortable just from looking at them. Scales that seem sturdier than any outward armor that a golem could ever fathom. A tail long and whip like. With flames coming out of it.This is the full form of the wyvern that Claire’s team needs to face. Fortunately for them, they didn’t die from the attack that the creature made. This is because the saintess shielded them from the blow. Claire made use of her powers. Creating a barrier that can only be mustered by someone as her. A person that has been chosen by one of the deities. She used all of the mana of light that she can borrow from her generous benefactress, creating a type of barrier that can negate a certain amount of damage.Thankfully, it is strong enough to block the entirety of the blow. Breaking just as soon as the breath of flames ended and, leavin

    The Second Forest Guardian

    The fight is finally reaching the part where Claire is intending it to reach. The final part. The climax, if it can even be called that. With less than forty enemies needing to be defeated, Claire’s team is now in a position where they can continue the fight with less tension. Of course they still need to focus on taking down all of their enemies but, since there are now less than when they started off with, it removes a lot of the problems that they initially had as well.These including the continuous use of earthquake to change the terrain in their favor. This also includes the fact that they needed to put out flames and magma which, will now be greatly reduced as well. With all of this being said, there is one more problem that can rise for the group. Actually, this is the only real problem and threat for the group. The guardian of the forest and the leader of this group of monsters. The Blood Basilisk.The group doesn’t know that this is the type of basilisk that they need to fac

    Judgement and Crucifixion

    The fight continued to move in the favor of Claire and her allies. There is nothing that their opponents could do about them anymore. Everything continued moving in the direction that Claire intended it to. Almost as if she has full control of everything that is happening at that moment. But aside from this, there’s also the fact that she’s doing her best in raising her awareness of the whole surroundings. Her level isn’t as good as Asther’s of course. She can never match the level of the necromancer. Nevertheless, she is still on a level which is acceptable. On a level where it can be said that they will not easily lose to the likes of the basilisks that they are facing.“What else do we need to do your highness?” The two soldiers asked as soon as they are finished with their task.“We need to reduce the number of basilisks as quickly as we can. Otherwise, we’d probably go through the same thing again.”As she said this, Claire watched Octavia hold back a total of twenty basilisks al

    Almost a Perfect Strategy

    Just like the camp of the Direwolves, there are at least a hundred rampaging basilisk that are within the nest of the guardian. This much can be expected because it is the nest of the guardian after all. But even if this is so, there is not much difficulty on the part of Claire and her allies. Making them all feel that this is somehow unreal.Sure they don’t have the assistance of Asther’s undead anymore. This allows the basilisks to attack them more freely and adding to the number of the creatures that can come at them. However, the pillars that Parch created, as well as the disfigurement of the ground are enough to make the basilisks have a hard time attacking them.Unlike these monsters, the group isn’t that bothered with the terrain shifting in this manner. By this time they are already used to the tremors created by parch. And while the other thing that it creates is something that is relatively new to the group as well, the fact still remains that they are prepared for it. That

    Drawing Blood

    “Hey slowpokes hurry up!”Tyre commented as soon as he killed the first monster. He hasn’t done this before because it is always either Claire or Octavia that makes the first kill. That is why he feels proud of himself for being able to do this. Yet, this pride of his didn’t last long because of the events that happened next.Right as the first basilisk fell, the shadow of a person could be seen on the ground, coming from up high. Some of the basilisks looked towards this direction and saw Octavia. The female knight has already charged her claymore with dark mana. And without a moment of hesitation, she fired this at the basilisks.Five of the creatures are unfortunate enough to make contact with the spell. This isn’t able to kill them because of the same thing that Tyre had trouble with. They have armor that is thicker than normal. Nevertheless, the same attack is able to create an opening on their backs.Octavia isn’t able to make her secondary attack right away since the other basi

    Striking Down First Blood

    [Rampaging Basilisk]This is the class of the monster that Claire and her allies needs to face. They do not have any sort of system analysis which they can use to see the full details of the monsters but, it’s not like they need to. Yes this would help in making the fight more advantageous for them but, as it is, the fight is already going in their favor.Even without seeing what the basilisks are fully capable of, Claire knows the general capabilities of basilisks already. The same is true with her allies. And although there are added features to basilisk that aren’t part of the regular version, this difference would only cause a bit of problem at best. After all, Claire and her allies have their ego weapons which they can use. Weapons that would allow them to win easier in that fight because of the overwhelming strength contained on every weapon.“So, you think we should start the fight already?” Octavia asked.The group is positioned behind a bush. Unlike the other areas of fights

    Claire and Her Team

    While Asther advanced with his plans on the canyon, his allies also did the same. Claire and the others have wiped out another monster nest during the time that Asther has been away from them. They can only cover this much because, only a day has passed since Asther left. Plus, there is also the fact that Claire is still trying to internalize everything that the necromancer told her. About him being chosen by the god of war who, is a benefactor of the demon lord. And how Asther has been given a mission to kill the same creature disguising himself as the hero.Yet this alone is not enough to make Claire forget her duties to the group. She is still able to lead proficiently. There are a couple of mistakes and errors along the way of course. However, this is not enough to make Claire forget about her duties and responsibilities. Allowing the said mistakes to only be minimal.Right after the hunt, the group went back to camp by foot. This allowed Claire to have time to think. To erase tho
