Chapter 8 : Class Quest

Leiu was surprised as most of the classes were special, he really didn't expect this, he didn't do anything that special so he was startled to see so many good choices.

It's a pity he didn't know that what he did what practically impossible, who is crazy enough to hunt Bees and Rabbit for several hours? For most people, it's a waste of time.

The choice was hard, it's like putting several types of delicious cakes in front of you and telling you to only chose and eat one, it was that kind of situation.

He couldn't choose immediately, he was not that reckless, well the choice he excluded from the beginning is the 'Swordsman', obviously, the others are way better, just by their name, he could kind of imagine what each does.

What caught his eyes the most is those 'Epic' and 'Unique' Classes, the others are not bad too, but if going by rarity, then 'Epic' and 'Unique' looked more appealing.

"Hey, Old man, can't I see what each Class do?"

The old man glanced at him, somewhat annoyed and said

"What? So many good classes are proposed to you and you still want an explanation for them? Not everything is easy, boy, it's already amazing that you have this many extraordinary class choices, others would even dream of having just a 'Rare' class, just trust your gut and choose what you think suits you!"

Although he seemed a bit angry, the old man praised Leiu and resumed reading his dusty book.

Leiu didn't mind or didn't seem to notice the attitude of the old man as he was engrossed in the classes, such good classes appeared so he can't pick one at random.

5 minutes passed yet Leiu didn't move as he pondered about what to choose, choosing the main class is one of the most important decisions in every similar game, after thinking again and again, he was stuck between two jobs.

'Blade Dancer and Dark Knight... Hmm what to choose?'

The two classes seemed very interesting and powerful, he leaned more to Blade Dancer, with how he fought previously, he judged that it would suit him alright, as for Dark Knight, it was a complete mystery to him.

First of all, what's a knight, usually, a knight class would hold a shield and a one-handed sword, maybe a spear or a lance, that's what most games do at least, but dark knight, what is even the difference between a knight and a dark knight?

A mysterious and Unique class, it really intrigued someone as curious as Leiu, who wanted to unravel everything and learn about what is unknown, and this class definitely fits that criteria.

"Huh, so you finally made a decision, good good! I like your personality, brat!"

As the old man discovered that Leiu finally made a decision, he nodded in satisfaction as if approving his choice and praised him yet again.

"Old man, I choose Dark Knight!"

The old man nodded and replied

"I knew you would pick it, hehe, but it's not so easy to obtain it, first you need to finish the class quest, you sure you can handle it?"

Leiu just waved his hand in annoyance and said

"Just give me the quest."

Leiu was annoyed because the old man first acted coldly then changed his attitude, he seemed to switch between the two behaviors every 10 seconds, it's really annoying, one second he's praising him, the other he's acting coldly and ignoring him, why would not feel mislead and confused?

"Alright alright, no need to have such bad attitude.. *sigh*"

The old man dismissively waved his hand, and a message popped in front of Leiu.

Dark Knight (Unique) : A very special and Unique class only given to ones who showed extraordinary abilities and fulfilled specific requirements. The darkness is your friend and the shadows are your companions. Use the night to your advantage and slay countless enemies with the help of naught but darkness. The Dark Knight Class is a heavy damage dealer class, yet it can have decent defensive capabilities with some unique attacks.

Quest : Finish the 3 trials and you will get the class.

Difficulty : A

"Old man! What's with this A difficulty, it's just a class quest!"

The old man grinned while responding to the infuriated Leiu

"Brat, don't blame me now, it's you who chose this class so it's to be expected for the quest to be A difficulty. It's a Unique class! Furthermore, if you fail, then you can't retry and it will be removed from the class choices along with the good other classes, you'll only have swordsman left, hehehe"

"You motherfu--"

Before he could finish, Leiu was teleported out of the place, he couldn't even finish his insult and express his depressing and angry emotions, he was startled for a second before he calmed down and gazed around him.

The quest said 3 trials, but it didn't say what are they or where, he was curious and confused about what's happening, it's a good thing he bought Health Potions and an armor because this quest automatically started without any warning.

Leiu could only calm himself down, free himself from the previous anger and irritation and try to think things through.

He was teleported into a dark place, there was no roof or nearby walls, he didn't even know where he was, the only thing he could feel is the ground, it didn't feel like a forest or a cave, it's a smooth ground so he had to be inside some kind of building.

Because of the darkness, he couldn't even see the ground, all he saw was darkness.

1..3...10 minutes passed yet nothing happened, no sound came out of any place, no enemies and no messages, Leiu already started roaming, but it seemed endless, it's like he either was walking in circles or this place was incredibly huge, the only thing he could hear was his footsteps.

After 10 minutes, Leiu managed to somehow see a bit, after all, any eye would get used to darkness after spending some time in it. He couldn't see far away, he just saw that the ground was jet black and his surroundings were no different, it even gave him the chills.

He didn't see any light around him, the more time passed, the more confused he felt, although the message said trials, it didn't explain anything.

'Am I supposed to find a way out or what?'
