Chapter 121: Purchase of Sun Knight Class

It was only several minutes later that Aurelius finally departed the Ernst Academy.

By the time he did, his clothes were filled with the smell of cigarettes and their smoke.

However, he had no time to pay attention to it, much less curse at the person responsible.

Anna’s earlier words continuously echoed in his mind. He was unable to shake them off.

Human. Divine.

Rank Upgrade.

As well as the opportunity to achieve the required fusion.

The more Aurelius thought about it, the more surprised he became.

He knew that his choice to come here today had been correct. This trip had been absolutely worth it!

He sighed.

’Professor Anna truly deserves to be a Rank 3 Awakener. Moreover, she isn’t an ordinary one at that.’

’I doubt that ordinary Rank 3 Awakeners can access such precious information. It is only because Anna is connected to the Sun Church that she knows about it. Otherwise, she would be kept in the dark like me.’

Aurelius understood what was going on.

Although he had previously slain a Rank 3 monster using Ocean’s Wrath and the Sea God’s Trident, he had not become inflated.

It was clear that he had not truly reached that level yet.

Not only in terms of personal strength, but more importantly, in terms of knowledge.

’This is the disadvantage of not having an organization to rely on.’

’Although I can make up for the disadvantages in the department of strength with the Arcanist Class and the Player Panel, there is no way for me to make up for the lack of information.’

’... Unless I also join an organization.’

Aurelius suppressed that thought. There was no reason to think about it at the moment.

He continued wandering through the city while digesting the information he had just obtained.

Whether it was the never-before-heard-of Class Upgrade or, more importantly, the opportunity itself, there was a lot for him to think about.

Aurelius soon lost track of time.

After glancing at the sky and seeing that there was still some time before sunset, he headed toward the Sol mansion, planning to meet Selene when night came.

Yet just when he reached the estate’s entrance, greeted the guards, and was about to walk in, a sudden shout snapped him out of his thoughts.

"Sir Aurelius! Sir Aurelius!" A slightly excited voice echoed from behind him.

Aurelius turned around and saw that it had come from behind a bush.

Could it be that World_Builder had set up another ambush? Aurelius subconsciously wondered.

Yet half a second later, when the owner of the voice stepped out, he knew his guess was wrong.

The person who came was indeed a Player.

However, it was not the troublesome World_Builder, but a woman who had proven to be just as troublesome as him.

TheoryMaster69!

A rare trace of excitement flashed across her face as she hurriedly approached him, as though afraid he would run away.

The guards near the entrance noticed her approaching. They were prepared to drive her away, but upon noticing her gender and beautiful appearance, they looked in another direction.

They knew their young Lord’s playboy personality very well.

Such a beautiful woman... could not be turned away! Otherwise, they would be severely scolded!

Thankfully, Aurelius did not know what the guards were thinking at the moment. Had he known, he would have cursed at the previous Aurelius for ruining his reputation and then vented his frustration on them.

Watching TheoryMaster69 approaching with an enthusiastic expression, Aurelius couldn’t help but wonder what was going on.

Had the creation of the Fan Club truly made her this happy? Or had she finally defeated World_Builder and could now hold her head high?

Soon, Aurelius discovered that it was neither.

The moment TheoryMaster69 got close enough, she could no longer contain her excitement. Without any hesitation, she immediately grabbed his sleeve and stated her purpose for stalking him.

"Sir Aurelius! I succeeded!"

"I’ve finally gathered the items required to purchase the Sun Knight Class!" she said with a beaming smile that barely tried to hide her inner joy.

These words caught Aurelius off guard. He glanced at TheoryMaster69, wondering if she was joking.

It was only after seeing her pure eyes and nervous expression that he realized she was telling the truth.

Aurelius was immediately shocked.

He had indeed planned to have someone purchase the Sun Knight Class before the Beta Version ended.

He had even been afraid that the Players would fail to gather the required EXP and intended to help TheoryMaster69 achieve this as a form of investment.

But now, it seemed that his previous plans had been unnecessary.

Aurelius was surprised initially.

He knew very well that World_Builder had been working under Professor Anna and risking his life, yet he was still far from reaching the 1,000 EXP goal.

If he was not wrong, that fatty must still be searching for the Mystery Cloak’s materials.

How could TheoryMaster69 possibly be so far ahead of him?

Soon, realization dawned upon Aurelius. He remembered something he had dismissed before.

So far, TheoryMaster69 had seldom purchased anything from him.

She had only bought the necessary utilities, never spending any EXP on the useless Gacha Potions or things that could not help her directly.

Combined with the several Missions Aurelius had given her and her own efforts, it made sense that she was the first to reach this point.

A trace of excitement rose in his heart.

Had the Sun Knight Class, which had remained unused for so long, finally found a chance to show its full potential?

For a moment, both Aurelius and TheoryMaster69 looked at each other with the same excitement in their eyes.

Thankfully, the latter did not notice this.

Immersed in her own world, TheoryMaster69 summoned "Aurelius’ Shop" and scrolled to the very bottom with surprising familiarity.

Soon, the words [Sun Knight (Rare)] entered her sight.

Glancing at the 1,000 EXP price and then at her own Experience, which was only slightly higher, TheoryMaster69 did not hesitate.

With a thought, she immediately purchased the item she had longed for!

Sun Knight!

Here she came!
