Chapter 4 - Greedy Gambler (4)

~Ignored~ means that the textbox went away on its own without being viewed. It will appear in his missed messages tab.

~~City of Asgard, Reborn Hill~~

[You have purchased the Abilities , , and . You have 1837 Skill Points left.]

"What better skill is there than luck itself? To have the embodiment of the world on my side!" Lucas triumphantly placed his arms behind his head, his ecstatic blue eyes reflecting the blue windows before him.

The man adjusted a brown band around his neck, browsing the classes he could choose from. Most of the classes he looked over brought nothing to him. Merchant? It's pretty lame for him. A standard warrior? It could work but it's not specialized. Despite wanting to be a magician, he also didn't think he would have any advantages from starting from scratch.

While reluctantly hovering his hand over he noticed an odd class and tapped on it.

[ This class specializes in deceit and performance. 's are usually the focus of attention wherever they go.]

"The hell is this, wasn't there another class that had the same description?" 

Lucas was perplexed as he quickly scrolled through the class select screen, accidentally clicking on a class.

[

Before the textbox could even finish writing he closed it and his face tensed up, after making another mistake by accidentally closing an important textbox he became visibly angry, his arm jittering a bit to the right.

Lucas began scrolling more erratically and scrolling back ever so frequently, but as he made more mistakes he got angrier, which resulted in even more mistakes. Which just resulted in a loop that kept getting worse until eventually, he just gave up.

"This damn system is laughing at me, what am I? A damn Jester?" Lucas just lay down while letting out a long sigh. He closes his eyes as he tries to relax and control himself until a blue window appears in front of him.

[ This class specializes in deceit and performance. 's are usually the focus of attention wherever they go.]

He immediately bolts up and firmly grasps the grass beneath him before pulling it out of the ground. He suddenly twists his head like an insane man and talks in exasperated pauses."OH SO, NOW! NOW??? NOW YOU DECIDE TO F***ING WORK? ARE YOU MOCKING ME? HUH? IS THAT WHAT'S GOING ON?!" 

Lucas tried to grab the system window but just laid his hands in his lap, looking down after his hands phased through. His dejected face just fell into his lap as he let out a loud grumble.

"Just... It works! I guess." His hands suddenly shot up as he spoke, just giving a half-insane and half-done-with-everything look, he slapped his legs as he went back to lying down"

"But seriously, why are these classes showing the same description? What's the issue with this, this damn thing broke or something?"

"Can you show me Joker again?" Lucas's dark skin as he lay down contrasts him and the ground. As he fidgeted with the band around his neck, the system window finally appeared again.

[ This class is a front-line class that loves to get in the way. The is a class whose main goal is to attract attention from their allies in combat.]

"What...? It changed?" Lucas turned over on his side while looking at the window, just looking away from and back at it. "The hell's with this busted thing? The gods got some issue with me?"

"I guess I'll just ponder over it later, if I chose a class at random Daher would probably scold me. Talking about how I should 'Look out for my future' or 'actually think before making a life-changing decision'. I'll just wait for him to get back before I choose the class."

Lucas brushed his hand against the window while sighing, he moved the window away from his sight. "It'll be super lame if I get stuck with a bad class after all, no one would say OH NO, LOOK OUT FOR LUCAS THE JOKER!"

[ is changing your fate. It is now going on a 12-hour cooldown.] ~Ignored~

He mockingly raised his hands, and let out a sigh before lowering his arms, though on the way down his arm made contact with the option on the class change window, due to his carelessness.

[Your class has been changed to , your Max Level has increased to 500, class related abilities have been unlocked in the shop.] ~Ignored~

[A specific quest has begun. A unique reward has been chosen for completion.] ~Ignored~

[ has been chosen to be the reward of the quest <"Understanding">] ~Ignored~

"Heh, this thing's just way too easy when you have experienced friends. I would've had to figure this all out by myself... Thank god that I have Daher on my side."

"Ha... Daher; just how much has he done for me these days? The exoskeleton, the system management, getting me discounts on the drinks..."

[You have been inflicted by a curse, judging stats... The check has failed, and the curse is applied.] ~Ignored~

[You have been cursed by the . You are being lulled into a sleep.] ~Ignored~

Lucas lay down with a large smile on his face. He fell into the grass and embraced its comfort. "Heh, I gotta pay him back for everything one of these days."

Lucas turned on his side and slowly drifted off into the lull of the night as his eyes felt relief from staring at the system windows. "I'll make it up toooo you... grnzzzz..."

As the man drifted off a large shadow towered over his peaceful figure, leaving behind squashed patches of grass in shapes of large paws.

Snarl "GrrrRrrrrRAG..."

A large beast looking like a mixture of a dog and a bear lowered their face toward Lucas's sleeping body and opened its massive jaws, revealing a gaping maw and lines and lines of sharp teeth

GACHUNK

[ is altering your fate.] ~Ignored~

[ has activated. Organ 'Skin' has hardened per your Defense stat due to the presence of physical trauma. has hardened your 'Skin' by 500%.] ~Ignored~

Crunch

The creature had a face of confusion before suddenly shifting to pain, Whimper "GrnnAA! WAWAWAWAA!" The beast jumped back in pain and tightly grabbed onto its mouth while yelling out loudly.

The creature had some shattered teeth and blood flowing out of its gums, it began coughing out loud and quickly galloped away quite scared.

Lucas scratched the part of his body that was bitten before rolling over to the other side.
