Herald of the Apocalypse, Apostle of Judgment, and Sword Emperor were the three legendary options that I could choose from. Of the three, I was familiar with the sword emperor legendary class because someone had it in my past life. That someone was one of humanity's greatest heroes, Yamato Akiyama.
Legendary classes are locked the moment they are selected, so if I were to take that class, the Yamato Akiyama from my past would never emerge. Or rather, he would emerge, but he would not have the same power or influence that he had in my last life. I can't take what is his, so I ignored that option.
I looked through the available skills granted by the other legendary classes. The Herald of the Apocalypse and Apostle of Judgment were both excellent classes. The Herald of the Apocalypse class would allow me to be incredibly destructive. It seemed to revolve around massive area of effect damage and the ability to select other players to grant permanent buffs to.
The Apostle of Judgment was a strong class as well, but it had restrictions that limited its abilities to only deal the most damage to evil-aligned creatures. The amount of damage that the Apostle of Judgment could deal to a single evil-aligned target was unbelievable. Most of the enemies I would have in the future were far from good, so this choice would be a very good one.
My attention kept on being drawn towards the unique class option, though. Something was telling me that I should select it, even though I didn't have any information about it. There were options that I knew would benefit me, but the unique class was an option that could be even better. I wasn't a gambling man, but that didn't mean that I would never take risks.
I checked the timer and was starting to feel the pressure. There were only a few precious minutes before the whole server would know my location, so I had to make my decision soon. I mentally decided that I would give myself one minute before I would just have to force a decision.
"I wish I had a coin on me right now that I could flip... Oh, wait..."
I extended my hand and summoned Tim, the mimic. He appeared on my wrist as a smartwatch, the exact same smartwatch that he had destroyed when I first summoned him. A tiny face appeared on the glass and frowned as it looked up at me.
"What took you so long to call me back out? I've been in a pocket dimension for 3 days!"
I shrugged. "Sorry, Tim, I was busy. Also, to be perfectly honest with you, I forgot."
Tim rolled his eyes. "Well, hello and fuck you too then."
"Can you turn into a coin for me? Any coin with just two sides on it."
"Really gonna ignore my feelings like that, huh?" Tim paused, then rolled his eyes again. "What do you need a coin for?"
"I'm picking my class options, and I can't decide. There's a unique option that has no description, and I want to flip a coin to decide whether I should ignore it or not. Just give me something with a heads and a tails."
Tim shapeshifted into a small coin. I flipped the coin over to see the two sides to make sure that I knew which side was which. One side had a picture of my face on it and the other side had a picture of a butt on it. I sighed and decided not to say anything about Tim's design choice for the coin.
"Alright," I muttered to myself. "Heads means that I will select from one of the legendary options. Tails means that I'll pick the unique class and test my luck."
I flipped the coin. Luck had determined what class options I could select from, and I wanted to believe in luck one more time. A unique class option was something that I had never heard of in my past life. The fact that it was blank was something that was perplexing. The system had never made a mistake before, so there's no reason for it to make one now.
I caught the coin and slapped it against my left forearm. I slowly lifted my hand to reveal the coin, not looking at the result yet. I bit my lip and looked down. There was a very prominent pair of butt cheeks on the side of the coin. I blinked a few times, and the butt wiggled. That must have been courtesy of Tim.
I wrestled with the thought of selecting the unique class and decided to act immediately before I ran out of preparation time. I hit select on the unknown class, and several notifications pinged as blue notification screens obscured my vision.

I was speechless as I read the description of the class. The system had created a class that was perfect for me in every way. I was fortunate enough to return to the past and had resolved myself to fight against fate. I want to change the fate of humanity—my own fated death at the hands of the doctor. Now, I have all the tools I need.
