Chapter 7 - Job

Players in the DOL can operate their game system with just their minds, so there are many non-combat players who continue to interact with other players within the Server while continuing what they are doing.

Jack does it too.

Jack: "Guys, my shop is now being visited by a boy with a grim appearance!"

The 'boy with a grim appearance' she was referring to was of course Leen.

Leen subconsciously put on the expression he set up for Leen Brawn to use in front of the NPCs when he started entering the Town, so his expression was very gloomy when he met Jack.

Theven: "Could it be the previous Newbie?"

Theven remembers about Newbie with Player name Leen Brawn who asked about where to sell Common Items before.

Jack: "For a Newbie, this kid seems too hateful... His eyes are so cold!"

Lovely Qiqi: "What the hell is that? Lol."

Red 4: "I heard that some villages have just been destroyed by the Demon King's Army. Maybe he was a survivor NPC. Hm, I'm a little interested in him now. He looks like a Walking event triggerer..."

Theven: "Walking event triggerer, you said..."

Leen was unaware of what was happening in the Chat Server.

He sold all the Toad Beast Items and earned a total of 2 silver coins and 99 bronze coins.

After asking the cashier, Leen found that the money exchange power at DOL was quite simple and standard.

100 lower coins equals 1 higher coin.

This rule applies to most currencies in the DOL except for a special currency called Star Coin which has a variable exchange rate from 1000 platinum coins to 1000000 platinum coins.

Then, Leen also bought a Short Sword from the shop for 45 bronze coins.

[Item: Short sword.]

[Item class: Common.]

[A short sword forged from steel by a novice

smith.]

[+23% Physical Damage.]

So, Leen's current remaining money is 2 silver coins and 287 bronze coins.

Leen's next goal is to secure lodging and food, then get a Job.

On the recommendation of the cashier, Leen came to an inn called Dartbond Inn.

The inn is cheap and provides food service in the morning and evening at the price of 30 bronze coins per day.

For Leen, it is a decent price. So he immediately rented a single room for 3 days.

-90 bronze coins.

Remaining money: 2 silver coins and 197 bronze coins.

And finally, Leen headed to the Job Palace.

Right in the middle of the Town square, a white building that seems to be shaped using natural stone sculptures stands beautifully firm.

In the middle of the building, a multi-colored ball floated quietly.

Accessing the Job Palace requires a payment of 1 silver coin to the keeper of the Job Palace.

Again, Leen's money vanished quickly.

"It's a little painful..."

Enduring the pain of how easily he lost money, Leen stepped forward to the multi-colored orb - Orb of Task.

Leen touches the Orb of Task.

[Player comes into contact with Orb of Task.]

[Analyzing the Player's abilities and finding a suitable Job...]

[Job: Farmer; Laborer; Worker; Traveler; Poet; and Adventurer - available.]

[The Player have high Wise statistic.]

[Job: Librarian; Commander; Summoner; Analizer; and Star Reader - available.]

[The player has 5 Magic stat points.]

[Job: Spell Caster; Witch; and Mage - available.]

[The player has Speed and Stamina stats of more than 3 points.]

[Job: Archer; Hunter; and Thief - available.]

"No Knight?"

Leen was a little disappointed to see the type of Jobs he could choose from.

However, he was a little interested in the path of Wizard when he saw that he was qualified to choose the same job as the first job chosen by his strongest character.

[Job: Witch]

[A magic user who does not focus on the pursuit of combat power, but on prolonging life and mastering about medicines and magic tools.]

[+25% of Lifespan(Can be increased).]

[+50% Expertise in medicine.]

Leen was about to pick it up when, suddenly, a new notification appeared in front of him.

[Player detected to have Innate Skill: Learning.]

[The Player's Wise is over 8 points, Magic is over 5 points, and Innate Skill: Learning...]

[The Player successfully unlocks Special Job: Star Thinkerer.]

[Special Job: Star Thinkerer.]

[Your wisdom surpasses that of ordinary people. You learned so much that you began to direct your curiosity to the mysteries of the stars.]

[+100% Learning Speed.]

[+10% Chance to accept Star Guidance.]

Then, Leen's game system sounded loudly.

[Ping!]

[Special job: Star Thinkerer causes turmoil in your Destiny...]

"What!!"

Leen was very surprised to hear it.

Destiny is a unique concept in DOL that relates to the possibility of Faith's awakening.

Faith can only be awakening by the Player, so even Leen's strongest character doesn't have it.

"Will I awake a Faith after choosing this Job? But, this is a strange Job... And Jobs can't be changed once selected... Ugh..."

Leen felt undecided about what option he should choose.

***

Meanwhile, in the Fhotoir forest...

Enveloped by a black aura, a girl with long blue hair moved very quickly.

The two blades of the daggers reflected light as she moved quickly.

A 2 meter tall Humanoid monster with a pig's face and wearing thick armor – an Orc Warrior – roared while chasing after her.

The Orc Warrior carried a large hammer in its hand and charged wildly towards Bluevoice.

Its strength is impressive.

Every tree was destroyed by the Orc Warrior's attack.

Notifications appear in front of Bluevoice.

[You have killed over 100 Demon King Soldiers.]

[You successfully triggered Event: Chased by Demon lord's army.]

[Event: Chased by Demon Lord's Army.]

[You killed too many Demon Lord's Army and angered the Demon Lord's Army higher-ups who were camping in the Fhotoir Forest. Orc Warriors and many level 2 Demons will attack you relentlessly. Run and hide!]

Bluevoice glanced at her status.

[Player Name: Bluevoice.]

[Sex: Woman.]

[Age: 11 y/o.]

[Level: 1.]

[Job: Demon Hunter level 6]

[Title: Orc Killer.]

[Opens after killing more than 25 Orcs. A title given to a common enemy that the Orcs hate and fear.]

[+25% All stats when facing Orc.]

[+25% Chance to cause Fear to Orc.]

After killing many Demons, Bluevoice managed to become stronger thanks to her Job special effects.

However, even with all the buffs of her equipment, Job, Faith, Title, as well as her Innate Skill and Job Skill, Bluevoice still struggled to escape.

However, Bluevoice could only smirk.

"What is this... Haa... Haa... It's fun!!"

***

In the Job Palace, albeit with complicated feelings, Leen chose Star Thinkerer as his Job.

[You chose Special Job: Star Thinkerer as your first Job.]

As Leen expected. He obtained Faith.

A useful Faith!
