Thanks to my patrons.

''Don't look down, don't look down, don't look down, don't look down....''
'Those murmurs continually ring in my ears from the moment, I started climbing the cliff. Was the devil's temptation always so adorable?'
'In fact, the more I hear it the more I want to look down.'
'Of course, I won't. I'm not a professional climber and I don't even know if I'm afraid of heights.'
'It's best not to find out here.'
'"What would you do if I told you there was a chance of getting your [Saint] class back?"'
'"Don't talk to me! Concentrate on not falling!"'
'Ah, pure adorableness.'
'"Don't worry, my intelligence is high."'
'Delia: "?????"'
'The attribute intelligence broadens thoughts. This means that you can have many thoughts at the same time, concentrate on different things without losing sight of each other, solves problems more easily, etc.'
'The important thing here is that I can continue climbing the cliff while establishing a conversation with Delia.'
'"I've read about how Saints from the past have been able to regain their class."'
'"What book are you talking about?"'
'"Legends of the past."'
'"Those are just fairy tales."'
'"If I get the [Traveler] class today anything is possible"'
'Delia: "..."'
'Delia kept silent. Probably she is thinking about the saying 'if the river sounds, it's because it brings stones'. Following this logic, what if the books really tell the truth? Even if only a part of those books is true, it would bring a lot of hope to someone who has lost a legendary class.'
'The silence only lasted a few seconds, and later we continued to talk casually.'
'Especially, to forget about the great height we were at.'
'***'
'I've been climbing for about an hour with a bit of pride. I must say I'm pretty fast at climbing so… have I already climbed a few kilometers?'
'Just the thought of that makes my skin crawl with goosebumps.'
'"There's the top! Emir, you must be very careful. People say that at the last moment anything can happen, so remember to hold on tight. Be very careful on the slippery or unstable ground, if you apply too much force..."'

'Very nervously, Delia began to talk close to my ear, explaining what I must do to get off this cliff successfully. She has always been on my back, hugging me like a koala. I don't know where she got so much experience as a climber, but I still nodded to everything she told me.'
'"W- We made it!"'
'Upon touching the solid ground... Or rather snow, Delia picked up a large amount of it and threw it up in the air very excited. Seeing her like that is so contagious that I also picked up some snow and did the same as she did.'
'But as I threw the snow, I realized something...'
'"Delia"'
'"Mm?"'
'"Look over there" I pointed with my hand and said "We're not at the top yet"'
'Delia: "..."'
''Over there in the distance, you can see the real top of the mountain.''
'Delia: "..."'
'The next second, she began to shiver with cold. She quickly wiped the snow off her hands to avoid getting any colder.'
'From my inventory, I picked out some clothes and equipped them directly on my body and hers. It's unfortunate to have to equip a pair of pants under her skirt, but there's no other way. In the end, we literally have several layers of clothing over our body to keep out the cold.'
'"I'm sorry, I only have men's clothes."''
'"Emir... I've been wondering this for a long time, why do you want the Traveler class when you're such a good Adventurer? Even as a Saint of Solus Temple, I didn't see anyone able to control inventory as well as you. Only storage rings can match your speed."'
'Delia's expression is serious, and she is looking me straight in the eyes.'
'Without answering her, I looked off into the distance. Specifically, at that tiny dot which is Denir City.'
'"Being able to reach this kind of place at a time of my choosing is something that only those who possess the [Traveler] class can do" I mimicked Alfred's expression.'
'With a smile on her face, she nodded and said "Now I understand, it's a nice dream and I hope you can fulfill it."'
'Her words only contain sincerity. Since I know she was once a Saint I can understand why she is so tender and lovable. The Solus temple must have taken great care of her by keeping bad guys like me from getting too close to her.'
'Luckily for both of us, there was no need to climb a cliff again. The top is reachable on foot and, while the snow interferes with our hike, it was not to the point of preventing us from moving forward.'

'About an hour later, we reach the top.'
'We are so high that the clouds are below us and the night sky allows us to see every one of its stars, without anything getting in our way. The scenery is unbelievably beautiful. I couldn't be able to forget it, even if I wanted to.'
'I quietly looked for a rock and put a blanket over it, only then did I sit down. One of the conditions for getting the class is to meditate on the top of a mountain. Plus, it must be with the theme of outer space in mind. If I had a telescope I could get a better idea, but they are rare objects not available by mass sales.'
'"I'll be meditating for a while. This place is safe. So, if you want to walk around, go ahead."'
'"I'll be by your side, I won't let anything interrupt you."'
'"...Thank you"'
'Just then, the cold wind blew, making her hair sway in the air. Her cute fox ears tilted to the side, while her three tails tried to hide under her clothes.'
'All this added to the beautiful scenery made her a picture worth portraying.'
'Mm, I won't be able to concentrate if I keep looking at her. So, I quickly put all earthly thoughts out of my mind and pictured outer space.'
'Will there be air? Living things? What is the sun? Great fire magic?'
'Once the environment was right, I imagined how my body would feel in outer space. Body heat escapes from me as I think there will be nothing around me.'
'If I think negatively, then my body will fall infinitely.'
'If I think positive, then my body will float and I will be able to fly.'
'I don't know how much time has passed… I only know that, when I opened my eyes and saw my user interface… The class didn't show up.'
'What am I doing wrong?'
'Do I need to keep meditating for hours?'
'Emir: "..."'
'Well, I'm already cheating for a while. Now I have no choice but to continue.'
'[Experience]'
'[90% discount]'
'I temporarily removed points in my status and added them to experience, to increase the discount to 90%.'
'That time Alessia and I exterminated the thieves with scrolls, I concluded that the hidden requirement for the Mage class could be decreased to the point of being nullified if I have the 90% discount active. This is because I will only need to fulfill the remaining 10% to acquire the class.'
'Now I will check if that theory is correct.'
'With my eyes closed, I go back to meditating.'
'I repeated every previous idea and mixed them with the feelings that each one of them provokes in me, slowly making the atmosphere of outer space be recreated in my mind...'
'I'm short of breath!'
'No matter how much I move, I don't move forward or backward.'
'My heart is beating strangely… Will I die of a heart attack?'
'My whole body feels strange… Where am I?'
'What was I doing before?'
'Wait... Who am I?'
'Emir: "!!!!"'
'I opened my eyes.'
'I breathed heavily hard for a few seconds before I calmed down.'
'That's the deepest and most realistic meditation I've ever had… it got to the point where I forgot myself and my purpose. I really felt like I was taking my last breaths of life before I died.'
'I am now completely sure about two things. First, the 90% discount played a big role in this. Second... I got the class.'
'[Traveler Lvl 1]'
'[Travel regardless of location, appear in just seconds. Through space travel, anything is possible]'
'Indeed, there it is.'
'It's about time to modify my status points to add the new classes that have been piling up. I don't want to leave them to the last minute.'
'I went back to the 60% discount and pressed the [Reset Status Points] button.'
'Activating the second through the seventh class requires 41 points. Respectively the points are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, and 13. The sum results in 41, there is no error.'
'The eighth and ninth class cost 17 and 19 points. Activating them will cause all the points in my status to decrease greatly. So, I won't activate them. I will have to remove the [Adventurer Lvl 23] and [Warrior Lvl 22] classes to add the new ones.'
'It seems that [Swordsman] and [Sword King] can't be activated at the same time. It's one or the other. Since [Sword King] has a chance to evolve into [Sword Saint], the decision to make is obvious.'
'[Traveler] needs MP, so I had to take points off luck and physical resistance.'
'The final result is as follows...'
'[Emir] [Great Adventurer Lvl 1] [Archer Lvl 19] [Knight Lvl 1] [Sword King Lvl 1]'
'[Leader Lvl 20] [Survivor Lvl 17] [Traveler Lvl 1]'
'HP=13 || MP=10'
'Agility=23 || Strength=23'
'Intelligence=22 || Luck=4'
'[Resistances]'
'Physical=1 || Magic=0'
'Poison=0 || Curse=0'
'Now, the most important thing about all of this is that...'
'All the new classes have abilities!'

The fallen (?) hero and Aži Dahāka's soul fragment
I have to apologize.A certain real life problem that I thought I got rid of has caught up to me once again.I tried to continue writing, but my mind was not in the right track to do so and thus, as some people had said, the quality of the latest 2 chapters had turned from the usual "bad" to "worst". So, I reluctantly have to say that I will be away until I can sort things out.I can't say when, but I do intend to return to writing. I might lurk around to read other people's works though. I will be turning my attention to stories with "tragedy" and "despair". The five of us were summoned to this world from our clubroom two years ago to be made as heroes.Shouldn't forceful summoning like that be counted as kidnapping?Well, we chose to go with the heroes route.After harsh training and battles, not to mention all the killings, we finally defeated the demon lord.However, all those achievements literally became nothing, it wasn't just forgotten, it was erased to be totally nothing as even the written records were somehow being disposed of. I was too naive. Who would have thought that the side we have been fighting alongside with, the side we were fighting for, was the one to bring our demise?After I had to see everyone else turn into nothingness, somehow... I alone survived. Note: I will attempt to fix the grammar problem with the help of lieutenant colonel fletterman. This may delay the release of future chapter. Chapter 1 is fixed. Chapter 2 is fixed.

The Tutors
Roxie the head cheerleader is being "tutored" by a couple from her first period class. She thinks she can back out of tutoring but she's offered a different deal and she accepts. Will she graduate and leave them and the town behind?"I'm a little confused on if I'm dreaming or in a nightmare. A beautiful fuckin sexy dream where Roxie agrees to fulfill mine and Kai's every fantasy; or a horrible nightmare where my long time crush lets me and my boyfriend fuck her senseless until she's ripped from us taking our hearts...my heart with her." This story is pretty much all smut so if that's not your thing this is probably not a good read for you. This is my first ever story that I update in the middle of the night on my phone when I can't sleep lol. I've been editing it almost daily. Making it better. Give me some feedback and remember this is my first time. I'm just trying this out. I plan to stop at chapter 10 but could possibly be more.
