A hidden class was obtained once every condition was met, and it could change depending on luck and coincidences. Think about it. If the method of obtaining a hidden class was fixed, wouldn’t a hidden class sell the method for money and it would become commonplace?

  It was only possible to buy a class change book, not the actual method. And in the first place, Grid had a legendary class. A legendary class was unique. It was useless even for a billionaire. As long as Grid was Pagma’s Descendant, no one else could become Pagma’s Descendant.

  “Wave.”

  Grid sensed the presence of the white bear warrior while dealing with Grid, and used the skill that smashed the Giant Guild members in the past. Asuka and the white bear warrior, who were in front and behind Grid, both flew away.

  “Cough!”

  [You have suffered 4,500 damage.]

  It was tremendous attack power. Despite her unique rated armor, Asuka lost a quarter of her health from the attack. Then warning windows flashed in front of her amazed eyes.

  [Due to the enemy’s skill, all speeds have decreased for 10 seconds.]

  ‘The wide area skill deals large damage and has a debuff effect?’

  He was also immune to status conditions, so the category of Grid’s class must be beyond common sense. Asuka was sure of it. Grid didn’t have a rare hidden class.

  “There is still one epic class still undisclosed… Is that you?” Asuka asked Grid like she knew everything.

  “Think what you want.”

  He was about to attack again when Asuka cried out, “Let me know how to obtain your hidden class. In exchange, I will give you enough money to play around for the rest of your life…”

  The moment that Asuka was about to negotiate, Box jumped forward and blocked her mouth. “Miss Asuka, don’t you want to have some more fun?”

  After speaking one-sidedly, Box opened his folding fan and started to wield it like a baton. It was a weapon that controlled magic power.

  ‘This parasitic bastard.’

  A handsome man was humming while swinging his fan around like a maestro. He was handsome so anything he did would become a painting. Grid was feeling a strong animosity when Box stopped his conducting. In less than two seconds, he used a skill to connect the magic power of himself and his party members.

  “Magic Power Resonance.”

  [The effect of Magic Power Resonance is activated. The buff effect applied to you and your party members will increase by 1.5 times.]

  Linkers weren’t just about puppet magic. It could amplify beneficial effects and extent the range of the effect. The same was true for harmful effects. If the enemy had a debuff on them, he could extend the debuff range by connecting his magic power to the enemy’s and amplifying the effect.

  Linkers belonged to the magician class by default. They also had attack magic.

  “Magic Pistol.”

  Tatatang!

  Box fired his magic power like he was holding a gun. The damage was low but the activation speed was so fast it was almost impossible to avoid. Grid couldn’t respond and was hit.

  [You have suffered 307 damage.]

  [You have suffered 315 damage.]

  The Holy Light Armor was light armor. But it was made of the god mineral adamantium and had a higher defense than level 250 unique rated heavy armor. The defense was 872 points. It could be considered as one of the best armors in existence.

  Grid didn’t meet the conditions of use and with the penalty, only 393 defense was applied. It was around the same level of defense as a level 200 rare rated heavy armor. However, the Holy Light Armor had a fraudulent option of 40% reduction in physical damage and 50% reduction in magic damage. In addition, the set effect of the Holy Light Battle Gear gave +500 defense so the default defense wasn’t low.

  Grid didn’t even blink despite being hit with Magic Pistol one after another. Box was surprised and covered half his face with his fan. It was to cover as much of his confusion as possible.

  ‘Magic Pistol only did 300 damage? The damage of a linker is weak, but isn’t this too much?’

  Furthermore, hadn’t his stats increased by 30% due to the combined effect of Light’s Glory and Magic Power Resonance? Yet he only did this much damage?

  ‘It is more than I imagined.’

  In general, classes with excellent attack power had low defense. Box predicted that Grid would have low defense. Then what was this? Grid seemed to have uniquely high attack power and defense.

  ‘It’s a class with a perfect balance… No, that’s too much. It might be his items. Perhaps the battle gear that Toban considered as simple quest items are actually amazing? Okay. First of all, let’s stay calm.’

  No matter how high his defense, he wouldn’t have infinite health. Box thought he would be able to kill Grid if this continued. Then he used magic again.

  “Magic Pistol.”

  Tatatang!

  [You have suffered 290 damage.]

  [You have suffered 310 damage.]

  [You have suffered 305 damage.]

  The advantage of Magic Pistol wasn’t just its activation speed. The mana consumption was low, so he could use it freely. Grid’s nerves were sharpened by the magic power bullets that continued to fly.

  ‘This is irritating.’

  The damage wasn’t threatening. Currently, Grid was level 170 and had a health that was close to 40,000. This included the 6,000 health acquired from the Holy Light set and Doran’s ring. 300 damage was like a mosquito biting him.

  But what if the damage continued to accumulate? He couldn’t overlook the attacks that were impossible to avoid. Grid decided that Box should be removed first. But the white bear warrior blocked his path to Box. There was also Toban behind the bear. He was the 1st ranked paladin, so he was famous for his iron wall defense.

  Box believed that the current battle formation was perfect.

  ‘Black Teddy’s summons and Toban will tie up Grid’s feet, while I deal damage from the rear. Asuka will look for a gap and deal the fatal blow.’

  The opponent might be a monster who killed the pope, but they were four top rankers and the balance was excellent. It was a fight that was virtually impossible to lose. Victory was natural. Toban and Box’s group thought so.

  But Grid thought differently.

  ‘I am stronger than Pon or Regas.’

  He alone defeated the pope, who was even stronger than Malacus. Grid believed that with the pavranium, he was the strongest user. That’s right. Grid had the pavranium. He finally pulled out the pavranium. He would use all his strength.

  “First of all, take care of the annoying guy…”

  ‘What is that?’

  Box’s companions were amazed as two golden discs suddenly appeared.

  Kiiiiing!

  The discs turned like cogs and rose into the sky. They easily flew through Toban’s defense on the ground, like they were laughing at him. After descending again, they hit Box’s chest, who was stunned and fell down.

  “Kuaaaaak!”

  These discs flew alone and attacked the enemy? What type of absurd item was this?

  “Toban, what is that? Did he have something like this?”

  While everyone was focused on the golden discs, Grid unfolded his sword dance.

  “Pagma’s Swordsmanship, Transcend.”

  Subsequently, he used Blacksmith’s Rage and greatly increased his attack power and attack speed. After that, he launched the energy swords at Toban and Black Teddy’s pet.

  Kwa kwa kwa kwang!

  “Kuoong!”

  Toban used a defense buff and hurriedly raised his shield in front of him. But it was useless. His epic rated shield was turned into scrap metal in front of the bombardment. Toban felt like crying.

  ‘Grid. Why are you so strong?’

  Jishuka, Pon and Vantner told him that Grid was actually a very talented person, but he never imagined a class like this. If this continued, wouldn’t they lose the battle?

  ‘Isn’t this too disgraceful…?�
��

  Death would cause a loss in experience. As Toban was feeling desperate, Asuka spoke with admiration.

  “Really amazing.”

  On one side, Box was being hit by the two golden discs, as they constantly flew past Toban and Black Teddy’s defense. This wasn’t a battle between rankers. It was like a high level user playing with low level users.

  It was completely one-sided.However, the situation might change if the main damage dealer, Asuka joined in again.

  As a berserker, she became stronger the more health she lost. She lost a quarter of her health to Grid’s strike, so she had a 20% increase in attack power and 10% increase in attack speed due to the passive effect. She was confident that she could face Grid.

  But Asuka made another choice. She was fascinated the more she watched Grid’s class, so she cried out, “Grid! Let me know how to obtain your hidden class! I will provide you with a large amount of money, enough for you to play around for the rest of your life!”

  He could live a comfortable life for some game information. Who could resist this temptation? Asuka naturally thought that Grid would cooperate.

  Of course, Grid’s ears pricked up. He stopped the bombardment and asked Asuka, “How much are you going to give?”

  “Tell me the amount you want.

  Grid spoke to her confidently. “One trillion won.”

  “What?”

  It wasn’t 100 billion, but one trillion? It wasn’t the type of money that even a second generation heir would have. One trillion won was an astronomical amount equivalent to one-thirds of her father’s company’s assets.

  “Are you crazy?” Grid sincerely questioned Asuka. “Is there something wrong with your head?”

  How could a hidden class be sold so easily?

  “There is something called a brain. Do you think the class change method is the same every time? If it could be told to anyone, would the hidden classes be as rare as they are now? They would be as common as stones on the street.

  “…”

  She listened to him. Grid scoffed as Asuka made a stunned expression after realizing what she had overlooked.

  “You have a lot of money, but you don’t see the world. How stupid.” Right now, Grid was grumpy. “You asked for the method to obtain my hidden class? Attacking people randomly for such absurd reasons…”

  Grid wanted to clear the quest as quickly as possible and return to Winston. His goal was a first night with his pretty bride! He wanted to return to his daily life after losing his virginity. He was earning money and stats as a blacksmith, then he would embezzle Winston’s taxes once he became a lord.

  Yet these guys were delaying his journey. It was for items or purely selfish reasons.

  “What are you doing?”

  It was okay to interfere with others, but he couldn’t tolerate others interfering with him. Grid’s eyes shone.

  “Kill.”

  Grid underestimated Toban and Box’s group. This carelessness almost caused a big misfortune.

  Chapter 132

  Chapter 132

  It was true that the pope had a higher level than Malacus and a higher overall combat power due to his stats. The problem was that his class was a priest. A priest was a class that specialized in support abilities, with their combat ability being the lowest among all classes.

  Indeed, the pope’s only attack spell was Goddess’ Breath(a regular user would’ve died in one blow from Goddess’ Breath). The only method the pope used to attack Grid was to release magic power (ordinary users wouldn’t have survived even a simple magic bombardment).

  On the other hand, rankers chose the right class for their power and they had a lot of combat experience.

  “Did you call me stupid? Even my father never said such things to me.”

  Asuka’s face reddened as she puffed up angrily. She rushed towards Grid and started to wield her double swords. The duration of Transcend and Blacksmith’s Rage ended, and Grid was in a state of crisis.

  He was startled.

  ‘What? Isn’t she much faster than earlier?’

  Jjejeong!

  “Kuk!”

  It wasn’t easy to keep up with the double swords coming continuously. Then Grid fired Pagma’s Swordsmanship, Link.

  Chaaeng! Chaeeeeeng!

  Asuka barely managed to block 3 of Grid’s 17 linked strikes. Then she used Sword Frenzy to block up 9 more strikes. But there were still 5 remaining. She allowed those five attacks. In the party information window, Asuka’s health dropped to less than half in an instant.

  Toban panicked, but Black Teddy was always beside Asuka and he wasn’t worried. Black Teddy knew better than anyone that a berserker became stronger when their health fell.

  Kwakakakang!

  “Eh?”

  Asuka’s attack power increased by 40% and her attack speed by 20%. Grid started to become injured as the battle continued.

  [You have suffered 1,900 damage.]

  [You have suffered 2,080 damage.]

  ‘No, why is she so much stronger?’

  Grid hurriedly recalled the pavranium from where they were attacking Box. Then he regained some breathing room.

  Chaaeng! Chaeeeeeng!

  Wasn’t it easy for the pavranium to rotate around Grid and defend against all of Asuka’s strikes?

  “What is that item? Legendary rated?”

  Grid ignored Asuka’s question and pulled out the Ideal Dagger. He used Quick Movements before swiftly changing back to Dainsleif.

  “Shut up and die quickly!”

  Grid’s high insight confirmed that Asuka’s combat power was rising. Grid was frustrated. He resorted to only relying on pavranium to defend as the rushed at Asuka. He struck down on Asuka’s shoulder and succeeded in slashing it. Grid linked his attacks while Asuka paused.

  Papat! Papapat!

  Asuka survived the stabbing attacks and her health was reduced to only 20%. From this point on, she showed the genuine strength of a berserker.

  [You have suffered serious damage. Maximizing the berserk effect.]

  [Attack power will increase by 80% and attack speed will increase by 50%.]

  With the 50% increase in attack speed, the use of large weapons was now maximized. Asuka swapped to a halberd that was bigger than her body and wielded it.

  Chaaeng!

  “Kuk?”

  Grid tried to defend against the halberd attack, but he couldn’t endure the overwhelming attack power. Toban felt some hope at the scene and used a buff on Asuka.

  “Fierce Momentum!”

  [Fierce Momentum is activated. You and your party’s attack power will increase by 30%, while defense is reduced by 20%.]

  Box didn’t stay still either.

  “Magic Power Resonance!”

  [The effect of Magic Power Resonance is activated. The buff effect applied to you and your party members will increase by 1.5 times.]

  “Ohhhhhh!”

  Asuka felt the overwhelming power and shouted. She swung the halberd again, leaving a red afterimage.

  Peeeeeong!

  “Crazy!”

  The moment Asuka’s attack was blocked by Dainsleif, Grid’s body disappeared into the air. It was the moment when the immune Grid was forcibly caught in the air by a physical force he couldn’t resist. It was another one of Asuka’s unique weapons, ‘Hell Chains.’ Then she unfolded Chain Frenzy and Grid was stuck in the air for two seconds.

  The white bear warrior rushed forward through this gap. Then it swung its paws at Grid. But the golden discs spun and defended against the bear’s attacks.

  Asuka smiled with satisfaction. She had been waiting for the gold discs protecting Grid’s body to be preoccupied elsewhere. 0.5 seconds before Grid’s captivity ended. Asuka revealed the ‘Onslaught Greatsword,’ her weapon with the strongest attack power.

  She jumped and stabbed the greatsword into Grid’s chest.

  “Kuaaaaak!”

  Grid screamed as red filled his vision.

  [Yo
u have been hit by a blow!]

  [You have suffered 29,900 damage.]

  Given the fact that the Holy Light Armor reduced physical damage by 40%, Asuka’s attack power was currently far above common sense. If Grid hadn’t been wearing the Holy Light Armor, he would’ve lost his life.

  Flop!

  Grid’s captive state ended and he rolled onto the ground. Box watched the blood pouring from him and was convinced that they could defeat Grid. Suddenly, a green light appeared on Grid’s finger as the effect of Doran’s ring was activated and 50% of the damage incurred to Grid was restored to his health.

  Once this was triggered, there was a 10-minute cooldown, and it had been exactly 10 minutes since Grid first received a blow from Box’s party. In addition, he hadn’t equipped the Holy Light Armor 10 minutes ago. The Holy Light Armour had an option for a 300% increase in recovery magic! With 29,900 damage, Doran’s Ring would restore 14,950 health. This was then tripled, making it equivalent to Grid regaining all of his health.

  [44,850 health has been restored.]

  “Shit. I almost died.”

  Grid cursed as he raised his body.

  “Eh…?”

  Asuka’s eyes widened. There wasn’t a single wound on Grid’s body, no mark where Grid’s heart should be injured? There wasn’t even a single scratch!

  “What’s this?”

  Toban, Black Teddy, and Box were stunned.

  The cooldown of Pagma’s Swordsmanship, Kill, ended. Asuka perceived the killing intent and swapped back to using double swords for defense. However, it would be hard alone, prompting Black Teddy to command the white bear warrior to defend her.

  However, the white bear’s health was depleted from the previous bombardment and tt failed to defend against Grid’s Kill, instantly destroyed by the blow. Then Kill passed through the white bear’s flesh and collided with Asuka’s double swords.

  Jjejeong!

  “Kyaaack!”

  This was the first time Asuka experienced it: it was her first defeat to another Satisfy user, her first user-driven death.

  [Your party member Asuka has died.]

  “W-What?”

  The person they relied on the most had died. Toban was half amazed and half frustrated. Box shivered.

  ‘This is enough…!’

  Box’s reason for being obsessed with Grid was different from Asuka. He wasn’t looking for Grid’s class like Asuka. He was checking to make sure that Grid was worthy of an invitation. In fact, Box’s true identity was a spy for another guild.
