Chapter 2: Another Class, a Stubborn Choice

Aisha placed the scroll on the table and looked at Moss.
“Moss, I have a Wine Mage Class Change Scroll here. If you are not happy with the Knight class, I can give you this scroll.”
Moss instinctively wanted to refuse. He knew that Aisha was only a few years older than him. She was a new teacher who had just started her job. The price of a Class Change Scroll must be a huge burden to her.
The refusal words were on the tip of his tongue. Moss looked at the scroll before him, but he could not reject it immediately.
Sixteen years of looking forward to extraordinary strength from a class awakening had made him stop talking.
Aisha could see Moss’s hesitation. She continued to persuade him.
“Although Wine Mage has not been a popular class in recent years, it is still a relatively solid and outstanding class.
“It can use wine to cast all kinds of support spells, or it can simply brew special wine.
“Whether you want to fight monsters in the future or take up a job in a city, this class is a good choice.
“Although Knight is a class that focuses on fighting, it doesn’t focus on strengthening. Other classes can easily replace them.
“Moreover, because it focuses on both attack and defense, it can only make a tiny improvement in both aspects when it is upgraded.”
After analyzing the pros and cons, Aisha looked at Moss with a face full of anticipation.
“So, what do you think?” Aisha’s words had moved Moss.
Becoming a Knight would mean he has to compete with thousands of other poor children who also chose the same class. Wine Mage was a much better choice.
But even though Moss was very tempted, there was still a stubbornness in his heart that reminded him that this scroll didn’t belong to him.
Moss suppressed his emotions and said, “Miss Aisha, I am grateful to you, but I can’t burden you. I can’t possibly take this scroll.”
As soon as he said that, a deep sense of loss welled up in Moss’ heart, but at the same time, he felt extremely at ease.
He let out a light breath, feeling as if he had just released an enormous burden.
Aisha heard Moss’s words, and a look of disappointment flashed across her eyes. However, it was quickly replaced by relief.
She had long anticipated that she might be rejected. She was helping the youth in front of her because she appreciated his character’s tenacity and hard work.
This young man was the hardest-working student she had ever seen and the proudest disciple.
For more than a year, Moss had always been the first to arrive at school to study and trained until late at night. He is always the last student to leave school. Whether it was the written exam or the combat exam, this student was well-deserved to be number one in his grade, far ahead of his peers.
Aisha knew that all of his hard work was for the sake of the moment he turned into a professional the next day. It was a pity that fate played tricks on him.
Hearing Moss’s answer, Aisha shook her head gently. She put the Class Change Scroll back into the drawer and said, “This is a Class Change Scroll that my family doesn’t use anymore. Moss, you don’t have to worry too much. You can view it as me lending it to you. You can return it to me after you start working.
“I know that it might be difficult for you to make a decision now. How about we do it this way? I will bring this scroll to the awakening site tomorrow. If you change your mind tomorrow, you can just come and get it from me.”
Moss felt touched upon feeling Aisha’s kindness. He replied sincerely, “Got it. Thank you, Miss Aisha.”
Aisha waved her hand as if to say that it was okay.
“Well, if there are no problems, you can go back first.”
Moss turned to leave the teacher’s office. Just as he closed the door, he heard a familiar voice.
“Moss, how was it? What did Miss Aisha say to you?”
Moss turned his head. A fat boy with greasy hair stood in front of the teacher’s office. He was looking at Moss cheerfully, clearly waiting for him to come out.
Moss’s expression softened, and a smile from the bottom of his heart appeared in his eyes.
“Alan, why are you here?”
This was his friend Alan, whom he had played with since he was young.
Both their fathers were comrades who fought against Magical Beasts together. Although Alan’s father passed away early, the friendship between the two families continued.
Alan walked over and patted Moss on the shoulder.
“I’m just concerned about you. Shall we go home together after school?”
Moss nodded in response to Alan’s question.
At this moment, Moss suddenly felt a force pulling him toward Alan’s side. It turned out that Alan’s hand, which was patting his shoulder, had grabbed him.
Alan pulled Moss to the corridor wall and whispered, “Moss, tell me honestly. Are you going to choose Knight for your class awakening tomorrow?”
Alan’s tone was severe. Moss realized that he was not joking.
There was nothing to hide. The scroll that teacher Aisha had taken out flashed through Moss’s mind, and he quickly suppressed this thought.
He nodded silently.
When Alan saw Moss’s actions, a hint of anxiety flashed across his eyes.
He gritted his teeth and seemed to have made up his mind. He said once again, “Moss, I’ll go and beg my family to see if I can get you another Class Change Scroll.”
Moss was surprised, but he could not help but feel a surge of warmth at the same time.
Alan’s family was a family of Alchemists. It was rumored that his great-grandfather was among the pioneers of this class.
As a long-standing support class, the Alchemist class allowed his Alan’s to accumulate considerable wealth over several generations. In White Deer City, they are a family that could not be underestimated.
Although Alan was not a core family member, his family’s life was much better than Moss’.
Alan’s words naturally touched Moss. However, after giving it some thought, he chose to shake his head.
“Moss!”
Seeing that Moss refused his help, Alan could not help but let out a surprised voice.
Moss also had his considerations. Although on the surface, Alan’s family seems to be in much better condition than Moss’ family,?the truth is it has not been easy for the past few years.
There had always been people in their family who disliked the two of them and were thinking of ways to take away the business that belonged to Alan’s family.
If Alan were to ask his mother for help, his mother might agree to lend a hand, but this would undoubtedly increase the burden on their family.
In theory, everything in their business belonged to their family, and their family’s finances were far from being as bright as they looked on the surface.
Alan wanted to persuade Moss again, but at that moment, a hoarse male voice suddenly came from behind the two of them.
“What’s the matter, Alan? Are you going to use your family’s assets to help an outsider?”
Alan and Moss turned their heads when they heard that. A short student with a sharp face raised his eyebrows and looked at them with evil eyes.
