《Core .001》Volume 01: Epilogue
Advertisement
I have been walking for over a day now towards the south east. Still feeling dejected and glum, regrets fill my heart to the brim. But I realize there is nothing I can do anymore… all that is left is to move forward... I use my [Smell Sense] plus my new racial skill [Hearing Sense] to avoid all monsters the best I can.
As I traverse the landscape, I run into a small uninhabited cave. I know it is uninhabited because my [Smell Sense] is not picking anything up… so unless there is a monster who can somehow hide their scent, it should be in the clear. Either way, I am too tried to move for much longer...If there is such a monster...then it will be the end of me… Nothing I can do...
I am just glad that I stored some extra food in my [Item Box] from the monsters we killed during the investigation. Luckily that detestable middle aged man was not too stingy on food during the investigation due to all the monsters we killed. Of course it wasn’t from the goodness of his heart either, the meat was going to rot anyways and kept piling up. Since he did not want to waste time going back and forth too much between the village, he just let us take all the remains as we pleased. That was the first time in a long time that I actually ate to full.
Using the last bits of my stamina, I put together a few basic traps and methods of alarm outside the cave and lie down ready to collapse.
But then I remembered something important. I am now over level 10 aren’t I? Which means I can get my first non-combat class. I am really not in the mood for it now, but I know that I should at least give it a look.

Skills: [CP][Creationist: Analyze Everything]
“Talk about a sour reminder...” I mutter in sadness as I see the [Runner] job..
No! I need to get my act together and move on! Focus...
So from what I remember, the jobs are suppose to be based on what we did prior to hitting level 10. I can understand Runner since that one seems to be common among those used as bait. I can also to an extent understand herbalist since I have the skill and I have been using [Identify] on herbs quite a bit.

But why do I have Animal Trainer and Manager? Those seem to be some pretty high level jobs and I don’t remember training any animals or managing anything. I doubt me pocketing some resources into my [Item Box] qualifies right? Or is it the [Item Box] itself that opened the class up? As for Animal Trainer, the only animal I have ever trained even to the slightest was my old cat Shiro. Did that count somehow?
And then there is that Unique Job of creationist… I remember the receptionist lady saying something about Unique Jobs sometimes appearing...and she said most of them are crap and it is very rare to get a good one. But WOW...that looks so OP! Beyond OP even! And not only is it crazy OP, it is even more OP with my Unique Skill. Since I can unlock other attributes such as [SPD] from gaining other classes’ skills. Unfortunately it does not work on [LUK], but even then I still get two points every 10 levels!
The only thing that is useless is the 50% increase on attainment of all production skills. Since I can’t really attain them through normal means. But it might be possible that higher level skills are harder to get with my Unique Skill, and it might increase the possibility of getting them maybe? I still to this day don’t understand why I did not get [Horse Riding] skill…
Interesting enough, it seems that most non-combat classes are pretty poor as far as combat goes, unless you plan to go mage build? Very few give you any attack stats...Of course it is possible that there are some and I just don’t have them. If I remember correctly, the middle aged man had [Trainer] class, that probably had some combat stats on it considering the name of the occupation.
Now lets take a look at that [Creationist: Analyze Everything] skill.
[CP][Creationist: Analyze Everything] Level N/A
Allows the skills that specialize in identification to see other details that would normally not be seen that are specialized for the creationist class.
+3% for every level in your non-combat class +1% for every point of [PER]
I don’t get it…
I guess I would need to find out what it does, but even without it, the Creationist class is definitely pretty darn good…
So with no further ado, I pick the [Herbalist] class!
Joking!
Obviously I go with [Creationist]! It isn’t even a competition!
That really wasn’t all that funny was it… * sigh * … I am already tired, I’ll check on that skill tomorrow...assuming I’ll make it through my sleep safe and sound…
“Good night..” I mutter and fall asleep…
