Vol. 10 - Chapter 496 - Lana’s promotion and Ester’s advance route!

"—Select «Seraphic Saintess»."

Lana verbalised the name of the job, her voice devoid of any uncertainty.

As she willed, the list of job zoomed into the «Seraphic Saintess», and Lana's body—no, the «White Throne» had started to glow into the effect, releasing a brilliance. It was the scene that occurred when «Seraphic Saintess» was selected.

"Ohhh!"

Lana let out a cute squeal in excitement. The throne shone in a brilliant radiance, as if celebrating the birth of its new kind, and the sun motif on the backrest bathed in a white glow.

A gentle, pale green wind enveloped Lana into its wake, softly ruffling her hair.

The phenomenon had lasted for barely a few seconds, but for us, it was as if we had been watching for far longer, leaving its mark on our psyche.

Phew, this spectacle really did breath in a kind of excitement that I still had never felt bored out even after watching it for the nth time. I was even more awed by the live performance. It was amazing, no, It was sublime!

The light green wind, swirling around Lana, gradually slowed down and eventually disappeared. The shine of «White Throne» had come to a gradual stop as well.

"You're absolutely beautiful, Lana-sama."

Ester broke the silence with her exclamation, her eyes pooling with tears and cheeks dyed crimson.

Wow, she looked really moved to tears. ......No, wait. So I wasn't the most impressed by the live scene, but her?!

"I extend my most heartfelt congratulations on your promotion to «Seraphic Saintess», Your Highness Lana. It has been my honour to witness the glorious spectacle."

Following after her, with head in a bowing motion, Sierra spoke her well wishes, her tone exceedingly formal.

Even Sierra? ......Was I missing something?

Clueless, I had no idea what was the reason behind such a degree of reverency. —It was later that I heard the details; «Hero King» and «Sanctified Shield Princess» were the pinnacle jobs known to people of this world. So, it was an honour for even the great nobles to witness the birth of the new «Hero King» and «Seraphic Saintess».

Furthermore, while the condition to unlock «Hero King» had been unravelled, much of «Seraphic Saintess» conditions were hidden behind the veil of obscurity. There had barely been a handful of «Seraphic Saintess» from a glance at history.

Well, I really had no way of knowing this, but this did explain the reason behind the contrastive act of Ester and Sierra.

Next, I also moved in to congratulate her.

"Congrats on getting an advanced job, Lana."

"Yes, congratulations, Lana-sama!"

"Congrats~, Lana."

"A very much congratulations, Your highness Lana. It fills my heart to witness the radiating visage of your sublime."

After me, Hannah, Karua and Celestine expressed their congratulations.

Perched on the throne, Lana looked fidgety from all the praises, her hands constantly fiddling with her hair, unable to calm down.

"Um, err, thank you very much, everyone. I will continue to put my best."

Lana expressed her determination. Though her current bashful appearance was something that really stood out from her usual proactive self, making her appear more endearing.

"Well then, let's move onward. Ester, you're up."

"—Understood."

Next was Ester's turn. She stepped forward, her expression sombre, as she responded to my call.

Lana got down from her «White Throne» and took her spot within the rest of the group, leaving the spot for Ester. Meanwhile Celestine retrieved «White Throne» and stood by the «Dragon Statue».

"Give your all, Ester."

"Yes, I will! Lana-sama."

Hey, it's not a trial though. If anything, it's where you're to just enjoy the process.

While commenting internally, I arrived by Ester's side and helped her in her preparation.

—«Knight Princess».

At the starting juncture, it was the sole basic job available in the «Princess Job» category for «Knight Baron» category. The options, however, get expanded by four fold when they hit the ceiling for job promotion.

But since each advanced princess job was a unique job in itself, the groundwork must begin from the stage of «Knight Princess».

The first of the four routes was—«Dragon Princess».

It was also what Aegis was striving for. The job's highlighted include, but not limited to, fighting while riding a «Dragon» category monster. It boasted significant mobility along with the exceptional firepower and defensive power.

The job also comes with a bunch of «Dragon» related skills which provide the job a new definition.

The second route was—«Seraphel Knight Princess».

This version of «Knight Princess» took upon the task of a tank. Though they're capable of equipping «Vehicles» as well.

It was the realisation of a knight's dream, aspiring to be a tank, boasting an incredible defence. They also could equip special armoured «Carriage», which had earned them the title of 'Armored Express' from the players in the guild battle for none other than the unstoppable behemoth they become.

The third route was—«Equestrian Knight».

This was the so-called jack-of-all-trades job, master of pretty much all vehicles and monsters out there, instead of having a specific mount like in the case of «Dragon Princess».

Since «Dungeon Activity» offered a wide array of riding monsters, it often had been a mainstay team due to their adaptability by changing their mounts to match the respective opponent or dungeon. The job had also boasted high fame in the game as the job that allowed girls to mount any monsters.

The fourth, and final route, was—«Chariot Princess».

Wait, where the heck was the knight part tossed into?—must be the question in everyone's mind, however it was this 'non-mainstream' aspect that this job centralised on.

«Chariot Princess» boasted an enormous firepower, capable of using a long-range attack called Vanishing Spear Strike at a higher stage. It was an overwhelming change, getting access to long range and AoE attacks, in contrast to the 'trample' tactic «Knight Princess» were capable of until now to defeat monsters. Of course, they also had extreme mobility and defence, and in the advanced princess job category for «Knight Order», it overwhelms all jobs except, saving «Dragon Princess».

I believe it was the strongest job, and always first in the list to recommend. The job I had pushed to Ester was also this.

The prerequisite for «Chariot Princess», following the general archetype, was—

??????????????????????

1. Take «Knight Princess» to the LV75.
2. Have Overdrive at LV10, Driving Skill at LV5 and X Spear Mastery at LV5.
3. Have «Chariot» category equipment on slot while pressing for job advancement.
4. Must use Heavenly Spear Jewel.
5. Must not have «Tamer» category skill unlocked.

   ??????????????????????

The tipping point here was the 5th condition, which fell into special pre-requisite regarding respective jobs. After all, as a «Knight», where a «Riding» skill was a must, the «Tamer» skill alone was the pitfall.

It honestly took a great lot of time for players to find out this caveat.

With the «Driving Skill», players could operate the mechanical «Vehicle», but «Riding» was required for monsters and normal «Vehicle». In addition, monsters further required «Monster Link» skill, so both the mechanical vehicles and monsters were divided via skill this way. By the time someone realised that, quite a bit of time had passed.

Who could have thought «Monster Link»—a «Tame» category skill, and an indispensable one for «Knight», would actually be such a huge caveat. It had really left the entirety of the player base gobsmacked.

Well, not that it matters when you know. All the conditions had been almost fulfilled.

I took out «Heavenly Spear Jewel» from my «Item Bag»—imagine the spherical part of the world cup trophy given the shape of a spear—and handed it to Ester.

"This is all that's left, Ester. Now use this and touch «Dragon Statue». It's finally the moment for you to become the «Chariot Princess»!"
