บท 398: CH. 410: New Class

Asahi arrived in a small room bathed in soft light coming from nowhere. A low table was in the center of the room, by which a silver-haired girl sat on her knees. Her formal kimono emphasized her lovely aura even more.

"My love…" Klyscha mumbled with a smile. "Welcome home."

"Hai." Asahi plopped down on the cushiony floor, letting Klyscha lean on his shoulder. "Let's get through the notifications."

He hadn't looked at his notifications from before his fight with Sirzechs since many things kept distracting him.

Klyscha smirked. "Prepare your heart, for I'm about to rock your world!"

A flood of notifications completely blocked his vision. He preferred to go through everything even though Klyscha could filter nonsense notifications such as his affection increase with the random devil maid he found sexy. He scrolled through the list until he got to the crucial ones.

[—You earned 7,133,360,000 XP for killing [Level 380 Sirzechs Gremory.]

[—You earned 5,706,688,000 XP for killing [Level 345 Rizevim Livan Lucifer.]

[—You earned 2,104,651,479 XP for killing [Level 141 Leviathan.]

[—You earned 1,826,140,160 XP for killing [Level 138 Beelzebub.]

[—You earned 2,008,754,176 XP for killing [Level 142 Asmodeus.]

[—You have leveled up!]

Asahi nearly lost his mind in the face of zeroes in the XP. "Seven billion!"

[—You can choose a new class.]

—Monster Tamer

—Bane of Supernatural

—Spearman

—Magician

—Enigmatic Enchanter

[—You can't level up before selecting a class.]

The hour was upon him to choose the class. He threw a curious glance at Klyscha. "Bane of Supernatural? Did it replace Monster and Undead Hunter?"

"Demon, Monster, and Undead Hunter combined into one class. Killing two Super Devils evolved the classes. You'll deal massive damage to anything with supernatural powers."

"So basically more overpowered skills."

Klyscha slid her head onto his lap and guided his hand to her hair. Receiving headpats with a slack smile, the goddess explained, "It's your choice. Do you want to go crazy in fighting gods and supernaturals or do you want to command an army of monsters slash dragons?"

"Geez, you're tempting me."

He could never go wrong with the new class. Gods, demons, dragons—he would fight and kill them either way. The skill would make the fights easier, and well, less challenging. Enchanter class would immensely help in the creation of armor and weapons.

"I'll probably select the Enchanter at level 75. How far will my XP take me?"

The billions of XP had to give him decent upgrades. Otherwise, his day would be ruined.

"Guess."

"Sixty nine?" Asahi answered, confused until his instincts tugged at his consciousness. "It's more than that."

"A little more… the XP also strengthened your partners. Grayfia will surpass Satan-class… Ray will exceed the level 8s of her world in raw power."

"Great! Well, I'm not letting Grayfia take any dangerous fights."

"On the bright side, you can now easily dispose of beings on the level of the Heavenly Dragons. We can find garbage like them anywhere in the multiverse."

"Oi, who are you calling garbage?!" Ddraig's frantic voice rumbled. She had been chilling in the quiet territory in the Boosted Gear until she heard a woman calling the Heavenly Dragons garbage. "Let me out of this prison, Asahi. I'll burn this woman with my flames!" Her high-pitched voice turned those threats into a child's whining.

Klyscha gave a sly smile. "You. Who else is a Heavenly Dragon here?"

Asahi pinched Klyscha's cheeks. "You minx."

A giggling Klyscha snapped her finger, and a chibi red dragon appeared in the room. Ddraig's emerald eyes comically widened.

"How am I so small?"

Klyscha got up and stared at Ddraig. "As the wife of your master, I'm declaring this room as your new home."

"This pathetic room?" Ddraig snorted and puffed flames from her mouth. "Send me back—"

Klyscha grabbed Ddraig out of the air and put the dragon on her lap. Ddraig's great endeavor in flying to safety failed as she was apprehended and forcefully patted by Klyscha.

"You won't feel lonely with me here."

Ddraig looked at Asahi, eyes full of fear. She could only use puny flames out of her vast arsenal of abilities. Those flames stood no chance against the woman currently caressing her head as if she was a dog, not one of the strongest dragons in the world!

Asahi smirked and joined Klyscha in caressing Ddraig's surprisingly thin scales.

"The victor mocks the loser," Klyscha said. "You lost against my love, so you have to accept everything he says."

Ddraig's eyes turned vacant as though she had been betrayed. "I thought we… were family."

The Heavenly Dragon unknowingly put an emotional burden on Asahi's chest.

"Klyscha," Asahi muttered.

Klyscha released Ddraig. The dragon immediately flew towards Asahi and hid behind his shoulder.

"She is a demon! How can you marry her?" Ddraig whispered.

Klyscha stretched her arms with a menacing smile. "Say that again."

Klyscha excelled in playing the bad cop. She terrified Ddraig enough for her to seek protection from Asahi. She became the villain just to make Asahi a hero in Ddraig's eyes.

"..." Ddraig quietly settled on Asahi's lap. "Where is this? Pray tell."

"My dream."

"What?"

"Stay quiet for a second."

Asahi reached out and chose the Monster Tamer class.

['Monster Tamer' Class added.]

Asahi felt a new kind of energy running through him. A bright, almost golden wave of energy different from mana.

[Monster Tamer: A class for those seeking to befriend, or perhaps subdue the monsters in the wilderness.]

[Class-exclusive skills]

—Mythus Noblesse (Unique): You, the Monster Tamer, deliver justice to every monster.

Passive Effect: Your aura comforts and heals the allied monsters and weakens the will of the hostile monsters.

—Mystical Bond (F-Rank): Bonding with a friendly monster is the responsibility of a tamer. You can create a bond with two pets at this rank. There is a 20% chance to force a bond on an unwilling monster.

—Feverish Pact (Unique): Your pets gain a unique skill at every 25 affection points until 100 affection points and a special skill at 100 affection points. After 100 enhance the effects of the acquired skills.

—Dimensional Summoning (Unique): You can call upon your bonded pets from any dimension.

—Tamer's Authority (Unique): You can force orders on your pet. The pet's resistance against the order will dictate their reduction in affection points.

—Whip of Fury (F-Rank): Conjures a fiery whip that reduces a hostile monster's defense by 25.

'The class is pretty versatile.'

The Mythus Noblesse skill could heal his pets as well as make it easier to tame other monsters. Not only that, his pets would become stronger the closer they were to him. He didn't even get a chance to summon the whip as notifications flooded his vision.
