Chapter 326 Part 3

《Those who challenge Dragons are foolish》

《But is that foolishness or courage?》

《Those who resist death are also foolish》

《But is that foolishness or instinct?》

《Do not challenge the dragon of this land, for it means death》

《And overcome the trials to obtain the dragon’s permission》

《For nothing is gained without sacrifice》

Alright.
Is it over?
Have we finished?
Yes.
We did it!

I couldn’t help but collapse on the spot.
I really thought I was going to die!

Too long.
The Info screen is too long!
I can’t make heads nor tails of it.
But the fact that there is an Info screen means that we’ve won, right?

The battle was also long.
Especially after the Heroic Spirits disappeared.
I have no more Mana Potions at the ready on my shoulder and waist belts anymore.
And my MP is currently less than 10%.
　
It was a formidable opponent.
Stone Golem of Lesser Dragon, huh?
Will I have another chance to fight it?
Next time, I’ll use the Snow Beast Mace from the beginning!

Maybe it’s because of the penalty imposed by using Heroic Summoning, but the Bonus Points I gained after this battle seem relatively small considering how hard the battle itself was.
Well, whatever.
We managed to survive.

《You have gained 2 Bonus Points. You currently have a total of 29 Bonus Points.》

This should do.
I have already decided where I’m going to put my next Bonus Points.
For now, I would like to take a break…
But I knew this would happen as well!

《Summoned Monster『Volff』 Level Up!》
《Please add 1 point to a desired stat.》

That’s right.
I knew it!

Volff’s DEX increased automatically upon leveling up.
That’s strange…
I had a hard time deciding this, but let’s choose INT as his second stat increase.

Volff　Silver Wolf Lv4 → Lv5 (↑1)
　DEX　16 (↑1)
　AGI　38
　INT　16 (↑1)
　STR　26
　VIT　26
　SPI　15

　Skills
　Bite　Dash　Roar　Psychic　Hide　Pursue
　Night Vision　Conceal　Self-Regeneration [Slight]　Magical Resistance [Slight]

Yeah…
I can see how this is going to go.
Naturally, this will happen next…

《Summoned Monster『Goki』 Level Up!》
《Please add 1 point to a desired stat.》

Phew.
Oh, that’s right…
I wonder about the impact of using Heroic Summoning.
How many experience points have been lost?
I feel like I want to know.
I also feel like I don’t want to know.
Am I having second thoughts?
But it would have definitely been worse to have died as a result of not using it!

Goki’s AGI increased automatically upon leveling up.
Let’s choose STR as his second stat increase.

Goki　Yaksha Lv2 → Lv3 (↑1)
　DEX　25
　AGI　23 (↑1)
　INT　18
　STR　25 (↑1)
　VIT　25
　SPI　18

　Skills
　Bow　Hatchet　Sword　Club　Dagger　Buckler　Block　Evade　Hide
　Night Vision　Conceal　Light Attribute　Dark Attribute

Goki’s equipment is visibly worn out.
Please wait.
I’ll take care of repairs after I’m done with the Info screens!

《Summoned Monster『Senki』 Level Up!》
《Please add 1 point to a desired stat.》

Well, I guess this is to be expected, right?
After all, it’s undeniable that he fought the hardest after the Heroic Spirits disappeared.
Senki has a self-healing ability.
And, of course, he was being supported by my spells.
At this moment, Senki’s HP bar is below 40%.
Of course, his armor needs to be repaired as well.

Senki’s STR increased automatically upon leveling up.
Let’s choose VIT as his second stat increase.

Senki　Ogre Lv2 → Lv3 (↑1)
　DEX　16
　AGI　27
　INT　6
　STR　39 (↑1)
　VIT　39 (↑1)
　SPI　6

　Skills
　Punch　Kick　Throw Object　Block　Evade　Climb　Throw
　Joint Lock　Roar　Self-Regeneration [Slight]

Is this where the Info ends?
Contrary to my expectations, that doesn’t seem to be the case.

《Summoned Monster『Shishiku』 Level Up!》
《Please add 1 point to a desired stat.》

Was this unexpected?
No, I thought there was a chance for this to happen.
But it still came as a surprise.
I thought it would take more time.

Shishiku’s STR increased automatically upon leveling up.
Let’s choose AGI as his second stat increase.

Shishiku　Chimera Lv7 → Lv8 (↑1)
　DEX　15
　AGI　27 (↑1)
　INT　18
　STR　27 (↑1)
　VIT　30
　SPI　16

　Skills
　Bite　Roar　Scent Detection　Heat Detection　Night Vision　Conceal
　Predator Fusion　Poison　Breath　Light Attribute　Fire Attribute

What about Telomere?
She didn’t level up after all.
It doesn’t look like it.
It’s a shame the Info stopped here…

《Player has cleared the conditions for Class Change!》
《Please go to your Status Menu to access the Class Change options》

Hey.
The most surprising piece of Info was added at the very end!

I sit down on the ground and look at the status screen.
What should I choose as my Class Change?

　Class Change Options:
　Arc Summoner
　Others

Others?
Of course, I have no intention of going that way.
But I guess I could still take a look.

I select 『Others』.
This brings a large list of Jobs.

『These Jobs are not higher-level Jobs for Grand Summoner. After the Class Change, there will be a penalty to skills and others.』

Hmph.
I see.
So this is a list of other basic Jobs.

Fighter
Alchemist
Pharmacist
Wood Worker
Glass Worker
Sorcerer

Soldier
Lancer
Saber
Stinger
Trooper
Grappler
Captor
Mage
Spiritualist
Elemental Sorcerer 『Spacetime』
Elemental Sorcerer 『Light』
Elemental Sorcerer 『Darkness』
Elemental Sorcerer 『Fire』
Elemental Sorcerer 『Wind』
Elemental Sorcerer 『Earth』
Elemental Sorcerer 『Water』
Elemental Sorcerer 『Dust』
Elemental Sorcerer 『Steam』
Elemental Sorcerer 『Lava』
Elemental Sorcerer 『Thunder』
Elemental Sorcerer 『Ice』
Elemental Sorcerer 『Tree』

There won’t be a need for these.
Why are there so many?
I’ll remove all of them from the options.

Now onto the main topic.
I wonder what will happen once I become an Arc Summoner?

Race　Human　Male　Racial Lv34
Job　Grand Summoner Lv20 → Arc Summoner Lv1 (New!)

Basic Stats
　DEX　23 (↑1)
　AGI　23 (↑1)
　INT　34 (↑2)
　STR　22
　VIT　22
　SPI　34 (↑2)

【Arc Summoner】
　A Great Summoning Magician. A higher rank of Grand Summoner.
　A Specialist in Summon Magic.

Hmph.
So what’s changed?
The description doesn’t say anything about that.
Come on, GMs!

For now, let’s make a hard copy of all the data.
The obvious choice is Arc Summoner.
If you ask me why, I’m a Summoner after all!

Now.
What should I do?
The time is 8:40 PM.
The battle was long, but I guess working on all those Info screens also took a lot of time.
My MP bar is less than 10%.
It seems that Telomere was unable to absorb MP from the Golem, so she’s about to run out as well.
Shishiku has almost no MP left either.
It’s strangely surprising that there are no status abnormalities.
I shouldn’t push myself any further.

I feel like I could stick around for a while longer, but let’s log out here today.
I just can’t get into the mood to continue hunting.

But I should at least repair the equipment.
Even though my MP bar is running low…
It’s definitely better to do it today.

《【Alchemy】Level Up!》

Oh, darn it!
I ended up using magic stones in the middle of repairing equipment!
It can’t be helped.
My MP bar has gone way too low.

Ah, I can’t bother to think about the things that happened today.
Let’s log out early.
