After changing his profession to Master Swordsman , Ralph became a second stage warrior and gained 2 more skills .

“ Backlash and Cutkick “

Everyone at the Kraken village was fired up for the battle, even old Pompei felt like the lord’s plan was quite good , but the time to fight had not come yet .

“ We need at least 25 worms in order to poison the entirety of their water source .

We have to wait for 4 more days “

Courage was one thing, but stupidity was another . There is no glory in death !

He had to take safety measures and not risk their plan by being hasty .

“ I still think we should sneak attack few of them when they leave their camp to go hunting or fishing , we can reduce their numbers “

There were many who agreed with Ralph , even Eveline .

“When they see their men being killed they will most likely strengthen their defences inside the village , it should make our operation go smoother “

Jamie still didn’t want to risk things but he couldn’t show himself to be spineless.

“ Since this is your wish I’ll listen to you, I truly value all of your opinions .

Ralph will come with me to lay ambush near the lake, the Finnan and the others will go hunt nearby monsters for their cores “

His current energy stage was 1.5 ( after absorbing the bear cores ) , if he could gain a few more he was confident in reaching the second stage .

“ Things would have been much easier if I had a sword “

All the skills he remembered from his past life were sword related , but since he didn’t have the swordsman profession they were useless.

He decided to check the market just in case someone was selling any good enough profession tokens .

( Profession gates held professions that could be gained by several people, a profession token granted you a unique profession that nobody had )

He wasn’t expecting much since everybody wanted the good stuff for themselves , but he also didn’t underestimate the people’s greed for money . Due to the game being in early stages , he was sure that a gold coin could be auctioned and exchanged for over 10 000 dollars .

“ Intermedium Gunman , thats kinda whack .. hmm let me see , advanced berserker thats decent I guess ... “

He continued to scroll past profession tokens but none of them tempted him .

“ why is the lord talking to himself ? “

In their eyes, Jamie appeared to be walking in circles speaking to himself and scrolling an invisible game screen.

“ It might be his sutra, I don’t know but every time he does that he gets stronger “

Jamie had no idea that his current appearance was being mistaken for sutra meditation. If he knew he would pass out from embarrassment.

“ Basic Necromancer , wait it’s actually growth type ? “

He decided to check out that post .

“ Here I imagined myself a dark cloaked necromancer leading thousands of undead but this crap is a Basic Rank ..

it will take me months of gameplay before I’m able to revive a chicken , as if giving you no combat skills wasn’t enough!”

Its price tag was 5 copper coins .

“Even though its trash, a necromancer is still a necromancer “

Jamie imagined himself a captain of many sea ships with undead crews and undead ship captains , but as cool as it sounded such a thing would do him no good .

“ I know somebody who likes necromancy so I’ll pay 8 copper for it despite being useless. enjoy ! “ ( made it as a post )

He paid 8 copper and continued to scroll down until his finger felt fatigue ( at least thats what he thought ).

“ Against Thanatos “ meditation Sutra

Rank : Intermediate

Absorbs fleshly essence and turns it into death energy.

Price: 7 Silver

This guy didn’t even put a description on and went straight to the point which made Jamie do the same .

He bought it but gave him no publicity.

“ Its like the game itself is forcing me to become a necromancer “

He decided to give up but the last post in that page caught his attention.

“ I think this profession Token is bugged , but it still has warlock in name so it should at least be worth 1 silver coin right ?

Be generous senpais :( “

The details were :

“ ??!? Warlock “

Skills: Information Hidden

Rank: Information Hidden

Suddenly the ring in his inventory started to emit a brown light as if it was reacting to the token , without wasting no time he paid for it and decided to check it out .

The familiar pink gate appeared and dropped a brown colour stone piece.

Before the token fell on his palm, the ring floated next to it and did something that surprised and scared Jamie at the same time .

“ WHAT THE FUCK “

A brown human face made of aura came out of the ring , it had no eyes and no nose just a hole where his mouth was supposed to be .

After 2 minutes of doing nothing and just staring at the token ( even though it had no eyes ) , that weird mouth opened and it’s sharp teeth made of rocks became visible .

** Crack **

“ Holy shit it bit on it “

The token broke and then disappeared leaving behind a brown light bubble that was sucked into that hole ( mouth ) .

After the ‘face’ was finished with its ‘ food ‘ , it went back inside the ring and the ring teleported to Jamie’s Finger .

He almost lost his shit...

“ Did anybody see that , this bitch stole my profession token? “

“See what, Lord ? Are you talking about Eve“

Eve raised her eyebrow .

** Slap **

“ Did you just call me a bitch? A thieving bitch ?? “

The others ignored the Ralph and Eve quarrel and looked strangely at each other, had the lord lost it ?

Reading the situation Jamie faked a cough and changed subject , he didn’t want to look like a lunatic so he hid his thoughts.

“ Khem , are all the preparations ready Ralph ? “

“ Yes lord , our men have already engaged in battle with some tree panthers east from our village . They are handling themselves quite well “

Replied Ralph after finally getting Eve’s leg off his face .

“ Ugh this woman is definitely not a healer, she’s a devil “

“ Let’s go hunt some Lizardmen then , time to strike their hearts with terror “

He quickly took Ralph away before Eve ‘ struck ‘ him again , they were so scared of her that they didn’t even feel the need to walk sneakily. They didn’t hide themselves until they reached the lake .

To them Eve was much scarier than a bunch of ‘ lizard boys ‘ ..........
