《Soul Summoner in Isekai (LitRPG & System)》34. Career choice

Valcam!
The largest city on the southern border of the Kingdom of Nigal.
A hundred kilometers south of Valcam are the Ayer Mountains.
Further south, is the Human Restricted Zone—— Storm Sea!
There are various monsters in the Ayer Mountains, but they are not the main force of the Demon King's army, and most of them are below level 15.
Of course, this is all Valcam speculation.
As for whether there are monsters over level 15 in the Ayer Mountains, no one knows.
After all, no mercenary group is willing to risk its demise to travel to the Ayer Mountains to confirm the news.
Since it was the armistice period, the monsters of the Ayer Mountains did not invade.
However, small frictions happen every day.
From time to time, hordes of monsters stormed the villages and towns around Valcam.
Viscount Raynor, the ruler of Valcam, also offers bounties for some more dangerous monsters.
The mercenary group will hunt down these bounty monsters for commission.
When Anno and his party approached Valcam, they were all shocked by the tall city wall in front of them.
"As expected of Valcam!"
The shore looked at the ten-meter-long wooden bridge in front of him and said excitedly, "The moat is more than ten meters wide. What monsters can attack such a city?"
Others also have the appearance of 'living here, must be very safe'.
Anno glanced at the crowd and gave a wry smile.
They have all lost their memories, and their understanding of monsters is limited to the goblins and slimes they have encountered so far, and the rest are hearsay.
The Valcam in front of him was magnificent, but there were also flying monsters.
When encountering flying monsters, the city wall cannot stop them.
"Go into the city!"
Anno followed the caravan, beckoning the others to follow quickly.
When they came to the city gate, everyone saw a row of heavily armed guards standing on each side.
Five people in each row, wearing full plate armor, helmets, and spears in their hands.
The sharp eyes of the guards kept scanning the passing crowds, majestic!

The equipment and momentum are much higher than that of the Gruul town guards who guard the caravan.
"Is this a regular army professional?"
Anno licked his lips, a glimmer of envy in his eyes.
The equipment on these guards looked luxurious, and Anno couldn't afford it at all.
Making armor requires a lot of materials such as steel.
Some individual pieces, such as breastplates, are more expensive than weapons.
Not to mention a whole set of armor.
The guards in the small town of Gruul also only have a few pieces of armor, not a full set at all.
Both Anno and Shore could only drool at the equipment on the guards at this time.
Under the leadership of Mayor Ria, Anno and his party walked into Valcam.
Behind the heavy city walls, there are a large number of medieval-style buildings and people of all shapes and sizes.
Valcam, known as the 'Southern Defense Line', naturally has a large number of professionals.
In the small town of Gruul, apart from the guards and priests, the only professionals Anno saw were Harry and his party.
But as soon as I entered Valcam, the street in front of me passed by several professionals wearing equipment!
Because it was getting dark, Anno took everyone to follow the caravan and went to a hotel to rest for the night.
The price of the hotel is 20% higher than that of the Moonlight Tavern in Gruul Town, but the service and comfort are also much higher.
After the nine people finished their meal, they booked three rooms to rest.
Silent all night.
By the time Anno got up, the sky was already bright.
After asking the waiter in the store, he learned that it is past seven o'clock.
Old John and the other businessmen had gone out to run errands.
Everyone only has one day.
Tomorrow morning, the mayor will be back with the caravan.
If you don't catch up, you can either issue a mission or let the mercenary group escort you back.
Or you can only wait for a month until the caravan in the town comes again, and then follow it back.

As for returning alone...
Monsters like to attack lone humans the most!
Anno and others are not ready to return with the caravan.
Becoming a professional requires practicing with a mentor for a while.
Only by comprehending the basic skills of the profession can you be regarded as a professional!
After Anno and his group finished breakfast, they were going to find a mentor.
This was their first priority in coming to Valcam.
On the way here, everyone discussed career choices more than once.
Finally, a plan was determined.
The main force of the team is Anno, Shore, Bande, Lu Yan, and Lily.
The second echelon is Willow Rongrong, Sunow, Ning Wen, and Chloe.
As the main combat personnel in the first echelon, the occupational distribution must be reasonable.
The six major occupations of human beings are warriors, knights, magicians, hunters, priests, and thieves.
Warriors, high offense, and high defense, as the avant-garde of the team, Shore and Bande with strong physiques are the most suitable.
Compared with warriors, knights are more mobile. In the end, Lu Yan chose this profession.
Lily chooses the thief profession with strong concealment and can act as the eyes of the team together with the hunter profession.
Hunter is a special profession. It can use bows and arrows for long-range attacks, short knives for melee combat, tame pets to assist in combat, and at the same time create traps.
All in all, the profession looks like an all-rounder.
But it is also the most difficult!
Because there is so much to learn.
If you can't master it well, it will become a waste profession that is good at everything, but not proficient at everything.
The reason why Anno values this profession is that hunters can bring beast babies.
It is impossible for the summoned object to be hidden and tucked all the time, and there will always be a day when it will show up.
The hunter profession can bring the characteristics of the beast, which is just enough to cover Anno.
Five people chose four careers.
As a qualified adventurer, the team must not have shortcomings!
The remaining two occupations are filled by the second tier.
As a profession that can heal teammates, a priest must be indispensable.
Anno let Willow Rongrong and Ning Wen choose this career.
The remaining Sunow and Chloe became magicians.
As an output position, the magician should be the person in the first echelon.
But the five people's current choices are the occupations that best suit their personalities.
The final negotiation is to assign occupations according to the above results.
In this way, the nine-person team became a configuration of two soldiers, two magicians, two priests, one knight, one thief, and one hunter.
According to the standard configuration of the ten-man squad of this world mercenary group, there is still should one knight in the team.
However, this is enough.
It is worth mentioning that it is not that a person who chooses a certain occupation cannot choose another occupation.
It's just that, to cultivate a profession, you need to exhaust all your energy.
Very few people choose multiple careers.
After inquiring about the location of every professional mentor in the city, Anno went to the Hunter Professional Headquarters alone.
Of course, before he left, he gave each of the others ten silver coins - Anno deliberately exchanged gold coins for silver coins in the tavern where he stayed.
Although the basic skills learned by becoming a professional only need to pay the tuition fee of five silver coins.
However, as a team member, you can't always carry no money with you.
Valcam is big.
Anno set off from the tavern where he stayed and walked for nearly half an hour before finding the location of the hunter's professional instructor.
It was a manor about ten acres in size!
Above the gate of the manor, there is a plaque.
It says 'Hunter's House'!

Re-Ordaining of the Chosen
Alea cheerfully hummed as she descended the steps, brimming in upbeat while her colleague, Quarren Leos, shot her a look of skepticism. “So… were you right about him?” he asked doubtfully. She came to a stop for a moment, her humming falling silent before she shook her head, waving her medium length light-blonde hair from side to side. “I was wrong about him.” Quarren raised an eyebrow in confusion at the convoluted response.“But you seem quite happy?” he asked again. “Because I am. But I was wrong about him. He was… so much more than I ever expected.” Alea looked at the sky overhead with a smile. “That boy… no, that man, is amazing. I firmly believe he will come to stand on top of any adversary he faces. He is destined. He is Chosen.” Quarren snorted as he stepped past, shaking his head. “Okay. Each to their own beliefs but you’re sounding like a nutjob. That skinny twig? Everyone calls him a cripple, you know,” he shook his head.“Rumours are always false, Leos,” Alea answered with a disapproving shake of her head. “You wouldn’t know. He is so, so much more.” “I saw him with my own two eyes. I didn’t see anything redeeming,” Quarren rebutted. “Well…” Alea chuckled. “You haven’t seen what I’ve seen.” In the year 917 of the Imperial Calendar, the Great War had just ended between dozens of nations. Farrien welcomed home millions of troops and warriors with the Archdukes of Aerianne and Kanaria leading them at the forefront. Since the founding of Farrien, the Aerianne and Kanarian Archduchies have been pillars upholding the Kingdom from enemies. It was common belief that they possessed special blood blessed by the Goddess Stecia, who gifted the lineage to the first King of Farrien when he first founded the country. All were ecstatic when the current generation of the two Archduchy's, after the war, agreed to let their children wed. The excitement was short-lived however when the Aerianne Princess proved to be a dragoness among men but the Kanarian Prince was worse than even mediocre. The Prince disappeared and the wedding was shortly forgotten as society lived on. Until one day the Young Heir of Kanaria returned to Farrien a changed man, bringing demise with him. Follow the story of the Chosen ordained by the Goddess of Time as he returns to the past to right his wrongs and set things back straight again!
