YM778.TV Chapter 207 - Veronica’s New Job Change
??
"Hm, the \'Yin\' Job barely brought me any stat boost, I mean, it is a good job for the utility and boosts in the bond with my soul and that of Ervas… but in everything else, it seemed quite lacking… Let us see if there is anything new…" she thought, glancing at her available Job Options.
[Jobs Available]
[Armored Thrower], [Cursed Armor Brawler], [Phantasmal Armored Shield User], [Armored Artillery User], [Metallic Thread User], [Armored Tamer Mistress], [Hollow Witch], [Tartarus Executioner], [Abyssal Soul Demon Armor], [Synthetic Phantasmal Engineer], [Malevolent Necromancer Witch of Dead Spirits], [Metallic Self-Golem Transmuter], [Acheron Ferrier], [Demon Beast Queen], [Undead Metallic Arachnid Matriarch], [Demonic Shadow Phantasmal Soul Queen], [Abyssal Phantasmal Soul Warrior], [Living Demonic Fortress], [Gods Nemesis], [Abyssal Living Armory] (New!), [Great Self-Body Blacksmith] (New!)
Veronica glanced at the large, ever-expanding list of Available Jobs, finding two new Jobs before her sight. Her scarlet eyes flashed with interest and curiosity as she wondered about these Job\'s abilities.
"Abyssal Living Armory…? That is an easy guess, it is related to my Armory Skill, right? I think this is the first time I get a Job that could have the possibility of leveling up my Armory Skill…" thought Veronica, as she inspected the Job with her Appraisal.
She found out through its description that it was a Job granted only to those that had an \'Abyssal\' Soul and were also capable of generating many weapons, armor, and anything related with an \'armory\', becoming Abyssal Living Armories. She thought that it might be a bit confusing compared to Pekoran, the Living Armory, who was a new type of Undead monster instead of a Job… but she assumed that they were simply unrelated in that regard.
"This Job does indeed levels up my Armory Skill! This is an almost must-have! But what could be the other Job…? Great Self-Body Blacksmith? Wait, is it related to my Blacksmithing Skill? But what with the \'Self-body\' part? Ah… because I use my body for crafting weapons and materials… I guess that must be it, huh…" Veronica thought.
By inspecting the Job through her Appraisal, Veronica found out that the Great Self-Body Blacksmith Job was only given to those that were considered to be \'Great\' Blacksmiths, while also being capable of using their own bodies indiscriminately as materials for the creation of equipment through the Blacksmithing Skill.
This Job seemed to increase the level of her Blacksmithing Skill (obviously) and some other Skills, though it didn\'t reveal much in that regard, nor if it even gave a new Skill or something… but Veronica assumed that she might become way better at using her own body as materials for the creation of equipment through Blacksmithing if she were to chose this Job.
"I guess it is a very useful Job if I want to keep crafting or using my body as materials… But! I am more interested in the other Jobs… and I am actually rather curious about if some of the older Jobs can be leveled quite fast…" wondered Veronica, glancing at her available Jobs and recklessly choosing one of the Jobs she had an \'itch\' that might be able to level up into 100 instantly like some of the previous ones.
[Veronica has changed Jobs to [Synthetic Phantasmal Engineer]!]
[You acquired the [Engineering: Level 1] Skill!]
[The Levels of the [Legion; Level 3], [Surpass Limits; Clones; Level 4], [Comfort Maintenance; Level 1], [Rough Road Travel; Level 1], and [Precise Driving; Level 1] Skills have increased!]
"If this Job works like the others as its description said… Then… it should be capable of leveling up by simply doing this!"
Veronica suddenly divided herself into over a dozen of small arachnid-like metallic clones, and began to unify herself once again, however, each clone remained as an \'individual\' and assembled, creating a bigger and more intimidating Veronica… she surprised a bit everyone present, but they were already kind of used to her weird acts.
"And if the System also takes into account all the other clones, I have to assemble together into giant clones for various things…" thought Veronica, as a System notification greeted her sight.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!...
[The gained Experience has reached the required Level, User\'s Job has reached Level 1!]
[The gained Experience has reached the required Level, User\'s Job has reached Level 2!]
[The gained Experience has reached the required Level, User\'s Job has reached Level 3!]
[The gained Experience has reached the required Level, User\'s Job has reached Level 4!]
[…]
[The gained Experience has reached the required Level, User\'s Job has reached Level 100!]
Veronica glanced as her Job quickly raised all the way from Level 1 to Level 100! Just like in previous times, there seemed to be a \'cheat\' in the Samsara System where she could abuse certain Jobs that only needed proficiency and non-battle experience to level up! Such as a Job that represented her ability to assemble herself through her clones and \'engineering\', she was able to level it up all the way to Level 100 by constantly doing that with the many clones she had!
She had already reached a strong proficiency in this act as she had practiced and perfectioned it beforehand, she simply needed to show the System how good she was at it to receive her prize of a maxed Job! …Of course, not all Jobs were like this, as many needed Battle Experience Points to level up, or were far too advanced to simply level up in a whim.
"Nice!" said Veronica, glancing back at her Available Jobs, the rest of her friends and family glanced at her with a bit of surprise.
"She did something crazy again, I bet…" said Anna.
"Probably her crazy broken system gave her some new boost," said Shade.
"Auntie Veronica has the weirdest of smiles…" said Acathea.
Veronica did not notice their comments as she decided on her new Job change.
"This one too should level up quite similarly…" she thought.
[You have changed Jobs to [Metallic Self-Golem Transmuter]!]
[The Levels of the [Golem Transmutation; Level 5], [Engineering: Level 1], [Body Form Manipulation; Level 5], and [Long-Distance Control; Level 5] Skills have increased!]
Then, Veronica felt as if the Job began to quickly level up as well!
"What is going on, this System is way too exploitable sometimes! Although I need a very high proficiency to abuse this, so I don\'t think I can do the same with the Thread-related Job unless I level up my thread skill some more… Or get better at sewing and all of that" thought Veronica.
Veronica began to transform most of the clones she made into golems instead, by using the \'Golem Transmutation\' Skill and infusing dead spirits into her own clones, mixing them together and forming half-golems and half-clones!
The half-golem and half-clones had greater independence than her and were even able to level up on their own like actual Golems, while still remaining with a connection to her mind through the Legion Skill, but because those clones were also being merged with dead spirits, their minds were rather different. Nonetheless, there were many like these in the Kingdom, working as guards, hunters, or even becoming the walls themselves.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!...
[The gained Experience has reached the required Level, User\'s Job has reached Level 1!]
[The gained Experience has reached the required Level, User\'s Job has reached Level 2!]
[The gained Experience has reached the required Level, User\'s Job has reached Level 3!]
[The gained Experience has reached the required Level, User\'s Job has reached Level 4!]
[…]
[The gained Experience has reached the required Level, User\'s Job has reached Level 100!]
"I got it! We got it, girls!" said Veronica.
"Yeah, we did it!"
"You did it, girl!"
"I knew you could, I never lost hope in you!"
"Isn\'t she the best? I know because she\'s literally me!"
"We never expected less from you, my dear~"
"Woah, that one is rather weird!"
"No, you\'re the weird one!"
"We are all literally insane!"
"No, shut up!"
"I want to eat pie…"
"I miss Earth\'s Light Novels!!!"
"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO…"
"Okay, okay, calm down, girls, let\'s become one again," said Veronica\'s main body, as the golem clones merged back to her together, freeing the dead spirits within them.
Veronica then inspected her Available Jobs again while thinking about what to pick next, but after thinking some more, she realized that the other Jobs might not end up leveling up immediately like this one, and were hence, not worth it for now.
"After thinking it for a bit, an extra Armory Slot would be nice, but not the best of the world, and because it is a rather new job, it will take as long as Yin to level up… So I better pick this one Job that might enhance my Magic," though Veronica
Ding!
[You changed Jobs to [Malevolent Necromancer Witch of Dead Spirits]!]
[You acquired the [Dead Spirit Magic: Level 1] Skill!]
[The Levels of the [No-Attribute Magic; Level 5], [Mana Control; Level 6], [Mana Storage Armor: Level 1], and [Yin: Level 1] Skills have increased!]
The moment Veronica acquired the Skill \'Dead Spirit Magic\', the strength of Ozgeth, Pete, and Ozgeth seemed to have increased, as Veronica felt a strong connection with them.
"Wait… no way, is this…?" she wondered, as Pete appeared before her, following her command, and suddenly turning into an enormous golden bolt that flashed across the castle, reaching the ceiling and breaking it apart into a thunderous sound.
BOOM!
Everyone fell silent after glancing at such a spectacle…
"What the hell did you do, Veronica?!" asked Anna.
"Oof, oops…" said Veronica, quickly repairing the ceiling through Golem Transmutation.
"So you finally managed to get the Skill to use our Ghosts similarly to Spirits, I think I can grab it too," said Ervas with a mild smile, as Pete suddenly appeared behind Veronica as if nothing had happened to him, although he seemed tired, despite being an Undead without a physical body.
"Y-Yeah… I guess I\'ll name that Spell… \'Lightning Millipede Bolt\'… How about it, Pete?" said Veronica.
"Grisha…"
[Dead Spirit Magic: Level 1/10]
A Skill saw before until Veronica acquired it. It is similar to the Spirit Magic Skill, but instead of letting the user use their bonded Spirits of the Attributes, they use Dead Spirits such as Elemental Ghosts to conjure powerful Spells.
These Spells need several exorbitant of Mana, almost reaching the millions, only Veronica or Ervas would be able to unleash such costly Spells.
An example recently shown was how Veronica used Pete, \'conjuring\' him into a spell by using his entire self to become the element he represented into his Ghost race. With such a powerful Ghost as Pete, she managed to create a powerful thunderous bolt that impacted the sky and generate a loud explosion of electricity.
The Ghosts used in such Spells are not damaged and do not lose Health Points, but may feel mentally fatigued afterward, this can be improved after repeated practice. More Spells can be developed using the other Ghosts as well, such as Ozgeth and Legion.
