《Ascension of the Nephilim 》Chapter 136: Understanding the Sword Classes
Advertisement
Aron revealed various sword classes in his attack. The scene was so shocking that the knights who had seen their lord show great miracles in his fights had now shown them a miracle they couldn't believe.
The jobs for those who wielded the sword were known as Sword Classes. And there were two types. Sword Classes could be classified as either a Knight or a Swordsman.
Those that pursue the Knights class focus their blessings and training on defense. In the human kingdoms, the knight is the most commonly pursued job due to its popularity, an abundance of blessings, and how this job is easily accessed to most human Kingdoms in the Lowlands. Even human kingdoms that do not focus on the Knight job class have Idols and Totems that aid in the path of being a knight.
Aside from this, the knight's job is also popular considering that the common enemy humans have in the Lowlands are orcs, which are generally stronger in terms of strength and vitality. Because of this, humans need a strong set of armor to survive the cruel conflicting world of the Lowlands.
Knights also happen to be the easiest path to pursue, considering the alliance that men and dwarves have to combat orc steel.
On the other side of this spectrum is the Swordsman job class. The job has a higher mortality rate compared to the Knight path. Only one in three people who train in this path ever reach the level of Captains. In favor of mobility, offense, and speed, the Swordsman class abandons the heavy armor of knights and focuses on harnessing and developing skills.
As humans don't have the same vitality and power that orcs have, swordsmen hone their ability to wield the blade and acquire even more expensive blessings than those of the common and popular knight class.
The two paths have many intersecting blessings that both tend to train similarly on the earlier stage and only separate when the person seeks out specific blessings on the higher stages.
The basic blessings of these two jobs begin with four blessings. This includes any Sword Wielding and Sword Combat blessings from any Idols or Totems belonging to any Sword God, the Knights Stance blessing, and the Valor Blessing.
When a person completes all these basic blessings, they are called either knights or swordsmen, depending on the path they set out to be. If they take at least three blessings specific to a certain path, they are called Classed Swordsman or Classed Knights.

This also becomes a requirement in determining the nobility of a family. A person aiming to become a Baron or a Baron aiming to retain the nobility status of their family should have at least ten retainers to be Classed Knights. The number becomes higher on Viscounts, Earls, and Dukes.
A Classed Knight has several paths to take.
The standard and most common was known as the Defender Knights. These are also what the Lowland residents refer to when calling a Knight. Champion Ordeus was one of these knights. Another branch was the mixture of powerful Holy Element used for various buffs and gave birth to the sturdiest classes among Knights. The Paladins was considered to be the peak of all knight classes but is the most expensive.
The Swordsman class has many diverse classes as well.
The most balanced job is the Sword Master. This is also the most common Champion among swordsmen. Another class within this job type was a swordsman that focused on speed. The Quick Blades are the trained scouts and assassins among the swordsman job.
The Blitzer was a two-handed sword-wielding Champion that has speed only outclassed by Quick Blades. This class emphasizes speed and power.
The Ravager was yet another two-handed sword-wielding Champion that sacrificed speed for pure power.
There were other classes of knights that only are present in the Midlands and the Highlands.
As he was growing up, Mezal had long noticed the talent of Aron in the areas of combat. Since their family could not afford a Champion upgrade, he decided to spend their resources to bless Aron with various blessings that were both given to Classed Swordsman and Classed Knights. Although Aron had never revealed his capacity as a Swordsman, the truth was he had the necessary requirements to turn into the Swordsman Champion.
As he ran ahead, Aron used his force energy in ways that would equal the usage of Classed Swordsman.
Branze watched from afar and began to take notes.
His eyes never left Aron, and he could see the form that Aron was trying to perfect.
The sudden sprint caused all the Lizardman Captains to rush forward.
A Lizard Guard dove in and was about to tackle Aron with a force similar to a Knights Charge.

Aron smiled and did not retreat. Instead, he used his incredible speed to rush in, and he harnessed his Force Energy onto his arm and sword.
STAB!
The stab pierced through the shield, and the lizard howled. He quickly retreated and stumbled back before several Lizard Captains arrived and began to attack Aron.
Their slashes were easily dodged as Aron used his Force to move his legs and swiftly evade the attack.
Several red arrows flew, and fireballs erupted as they reached the ground where Aron was standing.
"Oh? The mages are here." Aron laughed.
"Of course they would. The Golems never did focus on conquering this area, so these lizards were probably sending most of their strong warriors to make other crusades and establish themselves as the dominant race within this land. They only left a few of the lizard races to observe the movements of the Golems. But now that we are making strides in attacking these lands, they now sent a formal army." Branze replied as he kept scribbling on his notes.
"Why are you here anyway?"
"I needed to understand more about the Path of Combat. I see that you've been copying the movements of all the champions you saw and fought against."
"Yeah. I feel that If I limit myself to being a Force Paladin, I won't be able to understand the Path of Combat. After all, it's the Path of Combat and not Paladin."
"It seems your Foresight is also improving. Do this instead. Don't copy others. You can already imitate the power of those classes. But try to allow yourself to explore more than that. What can Force energy do? Try to understand what that is, and you should be capable of reaching greater heights."
"What an interesting theory..." Aron nodded.
"I have noted all the directions and force of how you imitated that. You used Force energy that Quick Blades use for their hands. You used the Ravager on your sword arm. You don't need the Blitzer since you are already faster and stronger than an average Blitzer. Then what you need to try is how you can incorporate the usage of these without form. Be like water, my brother." Branze handed Aron the notebook.
Aron began to look at the many sketches of Branze and was immersed in them.
The Lizard Captains reformed their men as they could see the Golems watching from afar.
Aron was amazed at how detailed his brother was and was even able to draft out possible more effective means that a Ravager and a Quick Blade could use their Force energy.
Branze talked with Stoph and gave him a detailed description of how to deal with the lizardman and their various lizard races.
"Brother? Why is there are three pages worth of 'I love Diana Redblade' over and over again?" Aron was confused.
"WHAT!?" Branze bolted back to Aron faster than a Quick Blade on steroids.
"Just joking. Of course, there aren't such pages. How can someone so smart like you fall for that one?" Aron chuckled.
"You!"
"Anyway, brother. I have a question. All your sketches seemed to have assumed that this is how Quick Blades and Ravagers use their Force. It isn't like me who can freely control it, but as if this was the only way those two Classes could release their Force. Why?"
"Fate and destiny. It limits the future of all mortals. The Totems and Idols are blessings from gods. But what are they really? Are they really blessings? Or are they tools that slowly release the bindings of what we mortals are capable of? Those who cultivate towards godhood must break these things. This is why we only have heard of such people in legends here in the Planes World. So I went ahead and assumed something else. This is also why I'm curious what the result would be if you break away from these chains and try to wield Force energy as you could freely can."
"Oh. I see. What an interesting theory. Let me try it out." Aron closed his eyes.
Little did he know that this action would create a resounding effect all over the galaxies and universe beyond.

This Book
The author, Edward Faust is aware that “This Book” does not really describe what this book is about. We shall pretend that it is a meta artistic choice but the reality is that Mr. Faust is bad at coming up with titles, and since starting This Book back in 2015 as a NaNoWriMo project he could never come up with a good one. This Book’s genre is YA Supernatural, but that’s only as helpful as any genre tag (IE: not very) so I shall describe it further. This Book is primarily about reincarnation, but it also features mythical creatures such as angels (known here as Seraphs), demons, Byzantines, as well as homeschoolers. Two mythical homeschoolers in fact make up the main characters of this work, a pair of siblings named Grayson and Kish. They live in metro Atlanta in the year 2019 AD with their Aunt. On one particular day they are plunged into a rabbit hole of spiritual and metaphysical politics by the arrival of a mysterious one-eyed Green haired woman and strange humanoid creatures into their lives. That is where the story begins. Yes. This book can also be found at https://thisbook.home.blog/
