From Player To Npc

Chapter 96: The Class

Shingi was back at his sense quick enough.

He could feel the changes that happened to him as there was a pain in his whole body but not a heavy one.

It was feeling like a day after overexercising himself.

His sight was blurry initially, but it quickly was back to normal, so he noticed the reason behind his current pain.

His body had grown.

He looked at a mirror in the room over the desk. 

He noticed that he didn't have the body of an eight-year-old anymore but of around fifteen years old.

He was currently alone in the room, but he could tell there were three figures in the kitchen.

What got him off guard was that he detected them without using either of his detection skills.

It was almost like the combined sense of PERCEPTION and MANA SENSE was enabled but to a lesser degree.

But he was confident that no Skills were enabled, at least no active ones.

He stood up and moved around to test his body.

His moves were more accessible and smooth than before like a restriction had been removed from him.

There were limits to his young body, and he had passed them many times. If he didn't have that high of END, he probably would have caused himself significant muscle damage.

This body was a long way from his Player body, but it was a significant improvement.

He was confident that he could fight Fire Whip and Shadow whip without using any Magic, or at least the ones when he first met them.

He started focusing on his Mana Tree and could feel that it was more extensive and more potent than before.

He opened his Status Window to check what had changed.

================================

His Skills and Spells didn't change on their ranks or grades. 

He could feel the Spells to have gotten strengthened a bit and the bottlenecks to had been lifted.

His HP, SP, and MP have been raised with his MP to have the most extensive change than before.

He noticed his new Passive Skill, which seemed to be that feeling he had, and detected the ones in the kitchen.

It was similar to his ECHOLOCATION Spell, but instead of bouncing on physical surfaces, it did on mana.

As his ECHOLOCATION reached a specific frequency to pass through anything except mana, as the Spell was ignoring the ground.

Of course, the biggest surprise was his Class, True Sorcerer (Apprentice).

He thought he would take the Class right away and not go through Apprenticeship, but it may be the case because he got a True Class.

Classes with the True at their beginning were uniques classes, of which only one person at every Realm could have the possibility to earn them.

Once a lucky one gets one, this class isn't available until he or she dies.

There were rumors that the spirits of the ones having the one before were merging with the Class's newest person. With each soul, the Class was becoming more powerful.

Shingi hasn't heard or read of any True Sorcerers, but he was confident that there should be stories about them.

He also knew that Anna's Class was a True Class, which Dlog had mentioned as one of the things he was proud of his daughter to be.

True Class holders were people that could earn the respect of the Gods, so Dlog had the right to be proud.

Shingi suspected that Varan also was a True Class holder, but he never found out if so or of which. 

His clothes were smaller for him and were barely fitting him since he grew in size, but the pants and sleeves were short for his new body.

He headed out to meet the ones in the kitchen.

He was still getting used to this sense yet, so he wasn't sure of one of the three's identity.

One was Aneta, and the second was Karemon, but the third one he couldn't recognize.

He could tell that it was a Player but not one who had a Mana Pool.

As he got in the kitchen, he saw the identity of the third person was Marcy.

When he entered the room, everyone was on guard at this unknown person entering the room.

"I guess you guys weren't there when I changed. It is me, Shingi, so Karemon, you can stop working on your Enchantment and Aneta, no need for any Spells."[Shingi]

He had met both of them working with their mana but doing different things.

"It seems those crystals work differently than I was informed. But at least you seemed to have gotten stronger. You have, right?"[Aneta]

Shingi smiled at the question and snapped his finger as ten MANA HANDS appeared behind him.

He then brought his hand forward with the palm open and facing down and started raising it as Golems started getting formed through the cracks of the floor.

He created one of each; one Attacker, one Defender, and one Task-Handler.

Then he brought his other hand at his chest as the left half of his body was covered by Earth Mana of his and the right half by Light Mana, and as he closed his fist, the MANA DOUBLES of his got created.

They made a step forward as they fully formed in a couple of seconds.

Everything was complete in a few seconds, sawing the improvements he had.

Even if MANA HAND was a Low Grade one, casting multiple ones at the same time was making it harder to cast in that short of time and keep them active. 

Before he could, at max, cast four and keep them active.

Also, his casting speed was like the difference between night and day.

Aneta seemed frozen in place of seeing the young adult in front of her, quickly casting so many spells in such a short time.

He had heard about Shingi's abilities before but never saw them with her own eyes, but she was sure they wouldn't be as crazy as that.

Karemon had seen him working on the shop and casting some of his Spells. But it wasn't as easy and smooth as at this point.

Marcy seemed impressed but not as much as the other two. She hadn't met Shingi himself before but knew he was supposed to be a student of the one she came with at the town.

Shingi was also impressed by himself as he didn't expect everything to work that smoothly but was trying to test his limits.

He released all his Spells except his Task-Handler Golem. He ordered it to clean the place up a bit as some areas were left unfinished from last time as he wasn't that good with the Spell.

"So you are that young boy I head about? I was expecting you younger from everyone's description. I am Marcy, and I got here with your Master some days ago to help with your problem with some annoying people."[Marcy]

Shingi hadn't seen Marcy for some time, as he had given her a task while he was still in his SPECTATOR MODE, on which she was working until now.

The task was to find any Players interested in fighting against the Master Whips Guild when they try to forbid entrance into the shop again.

Since it's been some time that they could use its service, and there would be some who would be willing to fight them.

"Yeah, I know about this. It is good seeing you. I guess from what you just said that you had met the rest of our allies? May I learn where the rest are?"[Shingi]

Marcy seemed to be thinking as to recall a few things told to her.

"Well, the two Mages told me that they were going back to continue their crafts. The naughty little cat said he would work on some recipes he found, and Soryn said he would go back meditating. Pan... I have no idea where she is. Wild Tycoon said she was going to keep training"[Marcy]

Of course, by two Mages, she meant Little Phoenix and Mizuneko while 'naughty little cat' referred to Hineko.

She seemed no to have met Anna or went to the shop to know what was happening with them.

"I see. Well, I have to check on them but first can one of you bring me some clothes? The ones I have are barely holding in place. Also would probably draw attention if I go shopping for some."[Shingi]

"I can take care of that. It shouldn't take too long. Will you wait here?"[Karemon]

Shingi shook his head.

"No. I will see you at the shop."[Shingi]

He then vanished as he cast INVISIBILITY, and none of the other three in the room seemed able to detect them.

The mana needed for the Spell had been less and the same for keeping it active, showing the difference between having a class and not having one.

Even after cast all those Spells before he could cast that Spell and keep it active for at least an hour.

He quickly made it at the shop, and even the watchers nearby were easier to go around.

He made it in the forge and dropped his Spell.

"It is me, Volig, Shingi, so no need to use the hammer on me."[Shingi]

Volig was surprised, but he could see the similarities and understand that it indeed was who he said he was.

Shingi informed him about what he learned about Mikail's whereabouts as also about his Class.

He wasn't going to let everyone know of his Class, but he trusted Volig with this information.

"So you think you can wreck them by yourself now?"[Volig]

"Maybe, but this isn't our plan as it will draw too much attention. But we are going to let them know that dogs should know where to bark and make them run with their tail between their legs."[Shingi]

He had lost a day and had at least two left to finish his preparations, but the rest seemed to have continued working on their task at hand.

Volig told him that he gave them some wand and staves he had prepared yesterday.

He had to see if Zhen made some progress with the design for them without him and how the production of the Mana Gems was going.

He also had to prepare some Spell Scrolls for his Spells with Mizuneko.

He waited for Karemon to bring his new clothes, which were better than his old ones.

The pants weren't anything special, but the top seemed like a mage's robe but was going over a little higher his knees.

The colors of it were primarily leather brown and some black lines, and it definitely didn't seem to be something cheap bought.

Shingi wore them in a hurry, recast INVISIBILITY, and started making his way to Zhen's lab.

1. No level because he is still Apprentice on that Class
