《Grand Defender》Chapter 3
Advertisement
That meal was nasty. 10/10 would not eat burnt snakes again. What was even worse was the [Food Poisoning] that came with it, but I at least got a Perk out of it.
After eating burnt stuff and enduring [Food Poisoning] I was starting to get very thirsty.
Thankfully, I had seen a river when I was on top of the boulder, a river that looked pristine enough to drink out of.
My new Perk would probably help if I was incorrect.
I walked up to the small stream and drank several mouthfuls of water before stopping, having seen the reflection of a very special tree through the calm and silklike water.
A mango tree!
And even better, all of the mangoes were mature! It’s not like I don't like green mangoes, it’s just that I prefer ones that actually taste like something.
I grabbed the tree’s fruit from a low hanging branch and bit into it, its taste being several times better than what I thought possible.
As I got my face covered with the yellow fruit, I noticed some fish swimming in the calm river.
Catching them with my bare hands would prove quite difficult, as such, I engineered a plan.
Gathering the stones needed for my plan was easy thanks to [Geologist], I used a flat stone as a table, and chipped a smaller, but also flat, stone with a tougher one.
The process took a while but was easy thanks to [Mason].
I now had a [Stone Spear Head].
Congratulations! You have earned 1 level in both [Geologist] and [Mason].
All Stats+10
All I needed to do now was to find a strong and straight stick, which was also easy due to the abundance of trees nearby.
After finding the stick, I made a small rectangular cut at the end of it, in which the [Stone Spear Head] would go in. I made a roundish hole through both the [Stone Spear Head] and the stick when connecting them, putting a smaller stick in the hole, finishing the [Stone Spear] by securing the smaller stick to the bigger one with some makeshift rope I made using soft roots.

Congratulations! You have crafted a [Stone Spear]
A makeshift weapon and tool created by [Sanjo]
Tier I
+10 Attack
Can be used as a wand for [Geomancy]
Not only is it a spear but also a wand?! How great!
And so, I held my weapon vertically in front of me, concentrating on its stone tip.
The uneven edges of the [Stone Spear] started to even out somewhat, and got slightly sharper.
Congratulations! You have earned 1 level in [Geomancer].
All Stats+5
Finally! A level in [Geomancer]!
It would take some practice to get used to it, but it will pay off in the end.
I sat on the river’s edge with my [Stone Spear] in hands, my legs crossed to prevent me from stabbing myself in the foot.
A fish who hadn’t noticed me slowly approached my location, attempting to eat something that was stuck between some rocks.
I quickly stabbed the fish, turning the clear water into a turbulent red mess as it squirmed.
I placed the now dead fish in the ground, and repeated the process another five times.
Conditions met! New Classes available!
[Spearman] Combat Class
Tier I
Allows proficiency with [Spear] type weapons.
[Fisherman] Utility Class
Tier I
Allows proficiency when fishing.
“[Spearman]!”
I was obviously going to pick [Spearman], but wasn’t so sure about [Fisherman].
[Fisherman] didn’t seem like a Class I’d use much, and I wanted to have a free Class Slot just in case.
Congratulations! You have chosen the [Spearman] Class.
[Fisherman] has been discarded
All Stats+5
Discarded? I expected the class to remain in Available Classes.
Well, I can't really do much about that.
