Chapter 67 Final Battle for Sub-Class
Chapter 67 Final Battle for Sub-Class
Beep! Beep! Beep!
A young girl with silver hair rushed in front of a blue panel and shouted.
“Lily, what is going on? What happened?”
“Miss, there was a slight difference in calculation. The amount of fuel we used to create the Celestial Killing Bomb has increased. We do not have sufficient fuel to return.” Lily’s virtual projection appeared in front of her and spoke.
Hearing her words, anger flashed in the young girl as she shouted.
“Didn’t you calculate the amount of fuel we needed to create Celestial Killing Bomb? You are an A.I. How could you make such a stupid mistake?”
“Miss, I might be an A.I. but I am not perfect. I am just a second-rated model to the A.I. that Mr. Brian created.” Lily replied. Her tone had a little bit of untraceable rage in it.
“But, she recreated you. How could you still be so useless?” The young girl didn’t feel that it was her problem. She only blamed Lily.
Lily didn’t reply. She knew she was just an A.I. She has no reason to go against her Will.
“Damn! If I don’t get enough fuel, the plan will fail. No, I can’t fail. After everything I’ve gone through, after killing her, I can’t fail. I won’t fail. There must be a way. Think Ely, think!”
Ely tried to concentrate but in the next instance, her eyes widened.
“Yes, I can do that. I have already decided to change the past. There is no reason for me to fear the consequences. Dad must have the ingredients in his lab. I can ask her to get those for me.”
“Oh yeah! I remember today is the day I went to the academy. What time is it?” She turned around and looked at the clock.
“It’s already 4 pm. I guess I can go and find her before she leaves for the bus. She will understand me, right? …. No, she must understand me. There is no other way.”
Ely murmured for a while and finally left the room.
……..
New Gods,
Brian had left for the next quest after separating from his team.
[You completed the Second Quest]
[You received the rewards]
[Quest No.2- Defeat the priest of the temple]-?(0)???.
Rewards- +3 levels, Class Upgrade *2, and Sub-Class
Punishment- Quest Failure]
Looking at the status in front of him, Brian sighed.
“After I finish this last quest, I need to return back. I have spent too long in here. I miss Charlotte and Ely…. Damn! I forgot today is Ely’s first day at her academy. Damn! I failed to send her off on her first day.”
Brian felt like a worthless father when he remembered that. The entire way, he kept cursing himself until he finally reached in front of the Temple.
He took a deep breath ‘If I remember correctly, I can’t use the effects of potions inside the temple. That means I must defeat the priest before I run out of MP or HP.’
‘Using the curse ability inside the temple would be a suicide as well. So, I can only rely on my skills. Hopefully, they will work.’
Finally, Brian took a step forward and walked inside. Just like before, he saw the three priests standing in front of the statue.
After he reached a certain distance, three priests turned around and looked at him with big smiles.
“Hello Adventurer, please come with us and greet the Lord Dragon!”
Brian shook his head and took out his swords.
“I came to challenge one of you. Please accept my challenge!”
Hearing his words, the smiles on their faces disappeared. They looked at Brian with an intense gaze and bowed.
“Adventurer, this is a holy ground of the Lord Dragon. Please come with me!”
Saying so, they walked towards the backdoor. Brian hurriedly followed them and eventually reached the front of a massive ground.
“Adventurer, I shall be your opponent. But, have you remembered the rules of challenging us?” The priest in the middle walked toward Brian and asked.
Brian nodded his head and said, “If I lose, I would’ve to join the temple and become the priest.”
“Yes! Shall we begin?” The priest nodded his head and asked.
Brian held his swords tightly. Without even giving him a heads up, Brian rushed toward the priest. He kicks on the ground and raises his body slightly, spinning his swords to conquer the tornado around him.
“DragonRider97 Sword Art” ?(O)???
“First stance- Dragon Twister!”
“It is indeed a powerful attack but nothing that I can’t block.” The priest nodded his head with acknowledgment and a green mana barrier around him.
“Dragon Protection!”
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
His swords continued striking the barrier but it didn’t even make a scratch.
“Expand!”
Bam!
With a single word, the priest expanded his dragon protection and struck Brian with it. Brian flew out and landed several meters away from him.
But, he quickly got up and released his mana once again. He condensed his mana into his finger and released a bolt of lightning.
“Thunderbolt!”
“Dragon Protection!”
Bang!
The bolt of lightning collided with the dragon’s protection but didn’t manage to break it. But, he was already aware of it. He dashed towards the priest with his shadow step and channeled his mana into both of his swords.
“Second Stance- Stealth Dragon Claw!”
Bang! Crack! Bang!
His sword slashed the dragon’s protection and unlike before, he managed to break it. He instantly used his shadow escape to attack again but the priest retreated a few steps out of his sword’s reach and chanted another spell.
“Dragon Claw!”
Priests are very good at spells and these priests have received the dragon blessing. So, each of their spells is not only related to a dragon but also power.
When he released the Dragon Claw, a massive arm of a dragon appeared above him and the arm stretched out its claw.
Brian’s expression turned gloomy. He took back one of his swords and pierced another sword on the ground.
“Third Stance- Thunder Dragon Stomp”
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Dozens of deadly lightning bolts emerged from his sword and struck everything around him. Nearly four lightning bolts struck the dragon claw as well but it didn’t manage to break it.
Bang! Splash!
The claw smashed Brian’s head and slapped his body to the ground. The nail stretched his back to the neck and dissipated.
[Warning! Warning! Warning!]
[Your HP is less than twenty percent]
‘Damn it! A single attack, just a single attack overpowered me. I need to use that right now.’
Brian instantly took out the red ring from his inventory and wore it.
[You have wielded Dragon Ring]
[Your STR has been boosted by three times]
[Your AGI has been boosted by two times]
[Your HP has been boosted by two times]
[Your MP has been boosted by two times]
[Dragon Temple detected]
?(O)??? [Your actions aren’t appreciated by the Dragon Ring]
[Ring has lost two of its bonus stats]
[Your STR has returned back to normal]
[Your AGI has returned back to normal]
Brian gritted his teeth after seeing. This is why he didn’t use it at first. Because there would be no use except for HP and MP. When he came here for a challenge, he became the enemy of the Dragon Temple.
And, the ring was the Dragon Ring.
‘I guess, I have no choice now. I must finish it now and go to the Flood Dragon Dungeon soon.’
Brian gritted his teeth and released his dark mana. His hand slowly turned purple as he dashed towards the priest. Seeing him coming so fast, the priest cast dragon protection.
Brian grips both of his swords and released his dark mana, condensing the image of a hundred arms asura behind him.
“Fourth Stance- Hundred Arm Asura!”
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Hundreds of swords clashed against the dragon’s protection. The priests saw the barrier slowly breaking and instantly cast another spell.
Dragon Claw!
His hundred arms asura and the dragon claw clashed head-on while Brian used his sword to break the barrier.
Bang!
“Class Ability- Cursed Hands!”
He slide in with his shadow escape and touched the body of the priest with his cursed hand.
[Curse activated]
[Dragon Blessing Detected]
[You have received 10x backlash for using curse under Dragon’s Blessing]
‘I don’t have time for a backlash.’
Brian instantly stops behind the priest and turns around. At this moment, his asura phantom was also broken but the dragon claw was still there. He channeled his mana into his swords and swung his upper body.
“First Stance- Dragon Twister!”
Bang! Bang! Bang! Thud!
The dark tornado sucked in both priest and the dragon claw. After a while, the priest fell to the ground with a body full of injuries.
[You have defeated the priest]
[You have cleared the quest]
[You level up]
[You received 10SP]
[You level up]
[You received 10SP]
[You level up]
[You received 10SP]
[Please select your Sub-class]
All the injuries he had received disappeared when he leveled up three times. He smiled and looked at dozens of figures in front of him. These were the classes he could choose.
He scrolled a few times until he finally found that class.
Bookworm!
[You have selected Bookworm as your sub-class]
[You have received the strength and weaknesses of your sub-class]
[It has been detected that your main class is Warlock]
[Your Magic has evolved]
[You can level up by killing and reading]
[Your physical and magic stats will increase with each level up]
[Would you like to Upgrade your class?]
Brian looked at these panels with a bright smile on his face. Worth it! The backlash he is suffering right now is worth it. He knows how deadly this backlash is but he can only say.
It’s f*cking worth it.
