Chapter 230 - New Job Changes
-----
Gwendolyn felt as if her soul was shining brightly, being filled with a thick and powerful ethereal essence that manifested in golden light and abyssal darkness, encompassing her entire existence.
Without realizing it, Frank's soul did not simply turn into Divine, but it also began to awaken a new god-like power within!
Frank saw as his soul extended and created many threads, connecting him with everyone close to him or who had somehow learned something from him.
He then realized that even the people of the town were being affected by these threads…
It was a wondrous sight, and as this continued, the power kept expanding and nourishing the people.
Those who were already stronger would grow even more by this mere act, and those that were too weak would get the opportunity to grow faster.
"This power… it is as if I was connecting souls with me, making them walk through a path," thought Frank.
Flash!
As his soul was about to culminate its transformation, Frank saw an enormous amount of energy gathered in the center of it, showering his Soul Core with it!
The Soul Core began to change and shape itself, shining brightly!
Frank saw as something within it awakened, like an inner space, a special time of space similar to his Inner Realm Skill.
He saw as it formed similarly to a bubble, although inside of it there was a whole world…
Suddenly, another bubble emerged, fusing itself with it…
Flash!
[Your Soul Core has been refined into a [Divine Soul Core]!]
Alongside this, Frank saw that he gained several Skills.
Ding!
[You learned the [Time Magic: Level 1], [Demigod Transformation: Level 1], and the [Divine Realm: Level 1] Skill!]
[You exchanged 10.000 APP Points!]
[The [Starlight Mind Realm] ad the [Divine Realm] Skills have merged into the [Divine Realm of Bright Starlight and Abyssal Void: Level 1] Skill!]
[You exchanged 25.000 APP Points!]
[The [Spectral Soul Embodiment: Level 3], [Aberrant God Soul: Level 4], and [Demigod Transformation: Level 1] Skills have merged into the [Spectral Abyssal God Soul Transformation and Embodiment: Level 1] Skill!]
Frank had received yet another great enhancement on his strength and versatility!
As his Divine Soul Core formed, he acquired a Divine Realm inside of his Divine Soul Core, which he fused with his Mind Realm to generate an even greater Divine Realm!
And he had fused the other Skills regarding his soul with Demigod Transformation, generating a new and strong version of such Skills all in a single one!
It possessed the power to both materialize his soul and cover himself with it, being a substantial temporal boost in all his capabilities!
Even if his body were not that of a God yet, he could simply cover his own mortal body with his divine soul and materialize it to attain such a level of power!
However, aside from this, he got other System Notifications…
Ding!
[You acquired the ability to grant Divine Protections!]
[Several allies, friends, family, and guided people had acquired your Divine Protection!]
[To unlock more of the powers of a God, level up, change Jobs, and cultivate]
"Divine Protections, so this was it!" thought Frank.
"Frank… I feel so strong now, is this something you did?" asked Gwendolyn.
"Indeed, I have given you my Divine Protection without me realizing," said Frank.
"Divine… what?! Are you a God now?!" asked Gwendolyn.
"Not completely, but my soul has attained divinity," said Frank.
"O-Oh… Frank, you're always surprising me but this had… gone above my expectations," sighed Gwendolyn.
"Don't worry about it… Well, actually, I went through a lot as you slept, but I will explain it to everyone. In breakfast," said Frank, petting Gwendolyn's head.
"Eeh? You are way too relaxed for something that might have been pretty big!" said Gwendolyn.
"W-Well… It was… pretty big," said Frank.
"How so?" asked Gwendolyn.
"…I fought the Gods?" asked Frank.
"…eh?" asked Gwendolyn in complete disbelief…
How could Frank even do that?
Why would he even fight the Gods?
What was wrong with him?!
And not any Gods!
There were only a few Gods in this world, they were the Gods that created Kritias!
Although it was known that there were people who had reached Rank 7 in their Mana Core Rank or even a bit higher, it was not completely known where they were and if they were even seen as actual Gods aside from the old Gods who created everything.
Soon after, Kamei, Annabelle, Cathyl, Hilvera, and Asterion came running towards the room, opening it with alarmed expressions, as if they were freaking out.
"Frank, what does this means?!" asked Kamei.
"Frank's Divine Protection?! Are you a God now?!" asked Cathyl.
"Aniki, you're awesome!" said Asterion.
"I am in shock, what does this mean?!" asked Annabelle.
"Frank, could you explain it to us, please?" asked Hilvera.
"Please, relax, I will do so on its due time, for now, let's go have to breakfast," said Frank.
"Eeeh? Now!" said Annabelle.
"No, no, let give Onii-sama and Gwendolyn-san some space, let's go," said Kamei, as she grabbed Annabelle who wanted immediate answers and the group walked away, closing the door.
"Well, that was something…" said Gwendolyn.
"Yes… It will be a pain to explain everything… Well, for now, I will assess a few things in the System," said Frank.
Frank checked his stats as he realized that they had increased even more now, and we're about to grow even more!
Now that he was done assessing quests, titles, and skills, it was time to change Jobs!
Frank already had a lot of stockpiled EXP from all the quests and fights too, so he would most likely level up a lot right after changing Jobs, perhaps being able to change to another more.
Without much time to waste, Frank checked his Job Options.
[Available Job Options]
[Nether Flames Dracolich Death Knight] > [Void-Born Nether Flames Dracolich Overlord] (Evolved!)
[Shadow Night Assassin] > [Divine Abyssal Shadow Assassin] (Evolved!)
[Labyrinth Master] > [Divine Labyrinth Master] (Evolved!)
[Grand Shaper of Earth] > [Divine Architect] (Evolved!)
[Aberrant Spectral Grave Lord] > [Aberrant Spectral Death Lord] (Evolved!)
[God Devourer] (New!)
[Abyssal Chaos Lord] (New!)
[Chosen Fate Guider] (New!)
…
"Oh? They all evolved and three new Jobs emerged… What should I pick?"
As of now, Frank felt interested in the Death Lord Job or Dracolich Overlord, but feel like he wished he could fuse them together…
Wait, he actually could.
"Perhaps like this…?"
Frank tried to fuse the Classes together, finding out that he actually could, as if they were skills themselves, through his System Administrator Skill, he was able to shape and move the System as he pleased as long as he gave enough energy to it in the form of App Points.
However, when he tried to fuse more than three skills together at the same time, it seemed to fail.
His power over the System was not enough…
He had even thought about the possibility of fusing Jobs, Skills, and more to generate something insane such as Skill Trees!
Or even convert the Jobs he had already taken into such Skill Trees.
He had tried to, but similarly, his power seemed to not be enough to do something so outstanding yet…
Perhaps he needed to keep growing, but for now, what he could do was enough.
Ding!
[You exchange 15.000 APP Points!]
[The [Void-Born Nether Flames Dracolich Overlord] and [Aberrant Spectral Death Lord] Jobs have merged into the [Aberrant Netherworld Spectral Void Dracolich Death Overlord] Job!]
"Oh? It merged… Can I fuse it again?" wondered Frank, as he tried to merge it with another Job now, however, it seemed that he couldn't.
The Job itself seemed to be some kind of ethereal power within his System that was part of his Trait, which Frank pictured as a sphere of colors, when he merged two of them, a larger and more unstable sphere of colors emerged inside of his Origin.
However, because it became too strong and unstable, if he fused another into it, the entire sphere might burst…
By picking a Job, Frank was able to fuse such a sphere with his very soul, making its power his own, and as he leveled up this Job, the power given to him would intensify, appearing as new bonus skills every 5 levels and extra stats.
Frank decided to pick the Job anyways for now and see how much he could level it up with stockpiled EXP.
Ding!
[You changed Jobs to [Aberrant Netherworld Spectral Void Dracolich Death Overlord]!]
[You acquired the [Dracolich Death Overlord] Title!]
[By the effects of the [Dracolich Death Overlord] Title, you learned the [Shocking Life Siphon: Level 1] Skill!]
Frank felt surprised by the new Skill and Titles, which seemed to enhance his necromancer-related abilities.
The Dracolich Death Overlord Title enhanced his Dracolich skills and power while transforming as one, while it also gave him the ability to summon Lesser Dracolich Undead through his Phantasmal Boneyard Skill.
Also, the new Skill, Shocking Life Siphon gave Frank and his Undead the ability to slowly drain the Vitality of their enemies.
Ding!
[Stockpiled EXP has been applied!]
[Your level has increased to 60!]
[You acquired the [Death Knell: Level 1] and [Reusable Undead Parts: Level 1] Skills!]
"Oh? Level 60 immediately! Indeed, this has become quite the fast-paced progression now… Even if I did not kill these Gods, I still got substantial EXP from a lot of Quests…" thought Frank.
The Death Knell Skill enhanced Frank's power and stats by the amount of Undead he had summoned around him, which would keep increasing the more he summoned, but would also decrease as the Undead were defeated.
And Reusable Undead Parts let Frank summon Undead even faster by using the corpses left by already summoned Undead, which also made them slowly raise to become stronger and stronger.
Now, Frank could change Jobs once more at Level 60, as he could change jobs every 10 levels, and he still had a bit more stockpiled EXP!
