Capítulo 42: Devils Gift
IMPORTANT; If you are binge reading, you can skip directly to the next chapter. This is a Non-Canon Chapter, which summarises the previous chapters.
Sooo there is some bad news and some good news.
First off, the bad news; The one posting this chapter is not Imperfectluck (IL), but me your favorite Devils_Advocate , you may know me from the Chat or Discord Group. (With permission of him of course)
Since IL has recently moved from China to the USA, he is a bit busy getting settled in, but he is working hard on continuing Mia.
Since the demand is so large for more Mia, I thought about doing a good deed, and giving you guys the chance to quickly remember, Mia´s Journey so far.
So as part of the good news, enjoy the summary of each and every chapter of the first 41 ;)
As the 2nd good News, the next official Mia Chapter, will be at some Point this month (so that means, for all of you worrying, that this novel is NOT GETTING DROPPED ;) )

- Mia faces off against Colson, and starts to cast [Drain Air] without uttering a word
- Mia meanwhile asks Colson about how Mana Fatigue affects Warriors
- Colson explains, that Warriors can suffer from Mana Fatigue, but that they were less affected because warriors use a different method of utilizing mana, known as mana compression for internal mana control, while mages use mana emission for external mana control

- Colson is confused why Mia´s Spells failed, since Wind Magic is supposed to be amplified outside and asks her
- Mia explains that her Spell profits from there not being a lot of wind, and starts to think about her fight style, which seemed more to fit an Earth Mage than a Wind Mage, which makes her think about who exactly decides what ones Main Job becomes
- Mia assumes, that if not the God of Adventurers, there may be a God of Job Classes or something akin to that, who decides such things
- Mia continues to rest and asks Colson about Job Classes, and promises to not attack him this time, especially because of her interest, why she should not go for a physical sub class
- Colson explains that People are only able to learn a Sub Class, which they have the talent for
- He further explains, that it is not advised to mix Magical and Physical Classes, because they tend to help different Stats grow, and Generalists were not as desired as Specialists, as there were clearly defined roles in adventure teams, and it would increase survivability by having a specialist
- Mia agrees mostly with Colson Logic, since she used to play with "Specialists" instead of "Jack of all Trades" type of characters, but also thinks that her having special knowledge about most of the Job Classes could be big help in her future, if only she could somehow recruit people and decide their classes for them, but such a thing would require reputation and money, both things she currently does not have

.
