Doing too much

Gasps were heard all throughout the crowd, many exclaimed over the reaction the priest had in relation to the guy who just walked out. Surrounded with the golden dark aura Axel moved next to Lilliana, and Geuro.

" Maybe it's a first come first serve type deal with these strong looking classes? "

Somebody from the crowd exclaimed, and the guy going next walked into the water, and came back out with a small white aura around him.

" A Warrior fantastic "

The priest spoke with little enthusiasm.

" Nope, maybe those three are special in some type of way? "

" Eh, the girl and guy that went first were both very attractive, and already carried the confidence of somebody important, the guy whose shining gold seemed normal. "

" I guess so. Maybe he just got lucky? I mean we could get lucky too. "

The crowd spoke between themselves, and Axel was bothered at being compared to the two next to him in a negative way, but hey what can he do about it?

" You three who have been blessed by our savior do not need to stay, and watch the rest of them become blessed. Go fourth and fight back the mist! "

The priest spoke, and the trio took their leave.

" So should we group up, or something? "

Axel asked while they walked.

" I'll be going solo. No offense to you two but playing solo is more my style. "

Geuro spoke as he walked away, and deeper into the massive city full of confidence.

" I'll also be going my own way, however let's add each other as friends, and play together in the future. "

Lillianna spoke, and they traded information before she too walked further into the city. "

' Just us old man. '

' Better that way, I wouldn't want somebody finding out there's two of us here. Besides I can guide you through this place, and you'll be leagues ahead of the rest of these chumps. '

' Alright Boss, where to go first? '

' First say status so we know what we're looking at. '

' Bet '

' Status '

Name: Axel ( Dragon Slayer )

Race: Human ( Blessed )

Class: Scourge of the Fel God ( Demi-God )

Level: 1 0/10

HP: 100

MP: 50

Str: 15

Dex: 10

Con: 20

Int: 10

Wis: 10

Chr: 26

Luck: 10

Appraisal: Very powerful, and good looking for a level 1

Skills:

Soul Sword: (passive/active ) Your weapon is an extension of your very soul. As such it can never be stolen, and can be called fourth at your whim. Can also be recalled at your whim. As you are soul bound with this weapon you may take up no other, however your soul is one that demands power, and hunger. As such your weapon is able to absorb other weapons into itself to become more powerful. As your soul grows stronger so to does your weapon.

Sword Stats: Attack + 10 defense + 10

Soul Flame: Flames as black as night are yours to command. Presently upon touch you may light anything ablaze with the rampaging black flames to consume all.

If an opponent is felled by this ability you gain a portion of their strength as long as there isn't a massive gap between your strengths in your favor.

Living Armor: Damaging your foes absorbs their very essence causing armor reflective of your soul. Armor lasts until destroyed. Due to your soul constructing armor you may not equip armor, however you can absorb armor to make your armor more powerful.

Armor stats: +5 armor for each part of the set completed. ( Head, Chest, Gauntlets, Waist, Grieves )

Equipment: Commoners clothes, Onyx ring ( + 5 Chr )

' This is my first time seeing any class like this. You can only equip clothes, and accessories, and can never change your weapon, but your weapon, armor, and you all have unlimited growth potential as long as you can fight people slightly weaker than you, and stronger. Any drops you get can be absorbed and make the rest of your stuff better. '

' This is great! I never need to rely on RNJesus for power, and I get stronger as long as I'm killing things, however isn't this doing too much? Isn't this a little OP? '

' Hey man you got a Demi god tier class, what are you complaining about? Much better than the warrior class we got last time! '

' Yeah I know, but will this even be hard with all these advantages? '

' Yes, you may think you're strong now, and for a while you will be, but do you think you could fight a dragon right now? '

' Uh… No. '

' Exactly now we have a lot of shit to do and not a lot of time to do it in. '

' Yes! So what's first? '

' Well since we don't need equipment, we just want it to make us better, levels are all we should be concerned with so we grind. '

' Bet! Where do we go? '

' Well first familiarize yourself with the layout of the city, then we need to head to the adventurers guild, and get registered for quests, then we hunt! '

Axel then took off going all about the massive city. The slums were exactly as he expected, a bunch of people living in bad conditions, without much help. While not a hero himself he doesnt think this type of life is right. Even if these people are just data they still deserve better than this. He can't do anything about it now. After getting some wealth, and power he could make a real change for these people.

' What are you thinking? '

' Well old dude, I think we should help them whenever we get the chance you know? '

' Good luck man, I think it's a great goal, but I'm not sure how much of an impact you can have. '

' Money fixes most things '

' What if they are here because they mishandled their money? '

' The world is ending, you would think money would lose its importance, and people would just care for each other you know? '

' You have a point, but how can you expect people to help these people when they have to take care of themselves. '

' Isn't there an all powerful god living up there? Why couldn't he fix the living situation? '

' I don't know dude. Even in my time I never met the guy. '

' Hmph, well if i was in his shoes I'd make sure everybody was at least happy, and healthy! '

' Ah, to be young, and hopeful. I never got any help in the future, and I doubt we will this time around. Just work hard and let's move on. '

Axel took his leave and moved onto the merchant's quarter and observed the many shops, and what looked like hotels or inns they should be called. The next ring held many barracks for guards, and churches. Lastly was a giant lift that led to a magnificent castle at the top of the cliff that the city is built into.

Having finished exploring Axel made his way to a large gathering of buildings marked Adventurers quarter. Finding the building marked " Headquarters " Axel walked in. Two counters sat opposite each other in the spacious room filled with a plethora of races, in all kinds of armor, with a myriad of weapons. One counter was marked " New Adventurers " The other " Quests "

Axel walked up to the relevant counter and spoke with the charming young elf behind the counter.

" Hi I just got to the city, and am here to sign up. "

" Perfect! You're the second handsome man to come in here today. It's so exciting that heroes from the other world are coming in to help us! "

" Yes of course, so what's the process here? "

" It's simple dear, just put your hands on this crystal ball that will record your information, and then you go right over there to the grumpy old man, and get yourself some quests. "

" Sweet, and simple excellent! "

Axel placed both hands on the crystal ball and magically his sats were recorded on a paper on her desk.

" Oh my god, a Demi-God rated class? "

The attendant wasn't very quiet with her exclamation causing many of the people present to nearly choke, or fall out of their seats as they all rushed over.

" Did you say Demi-God? "

" Yes, Axel here has a bonafide Demi-God rated class! "

" Holy shit. "

Similar exclamations were being made all around, and the excitement was infectious.

" Is that a good thing? "

Axel, dumbfounded by this interaction asked with a curious expression.

" Of course it's a good thing. The only rating of class above Demi-God is God, thus in terms of rarity, and future power you'll only be below the God-King himself! "

" Seriously? "

" Yes of course im being serious, your future is very bountiful, however your responsibilities will be many. "

" So I'm going to get a lot of quests, and thus a lot of rewards for them? "

" Yes of course! You need some armor, and a weapon. Quick get this man some armaments. "

Being so swept up in the three way conversation between himself, the attendant, and the rather large orc clad in thick full plate armor made from some kind of scales, Axel was having a bit of a hard time catching his breath.

The attendant had already fetched some armor, and a sword from the room behind her desk, and motioned for Axel to take them.

" Well I'm not gonna say no to free things, however.. "

Axel then manifested his massive greatsword. Its ornate handle is still gold, with the onyx gems adorning the guard. The blade is still filled with the same red veins however not glowing now.

" Your class lets you summon a blade whenever you wish? Not only that, a massive one? "

" Not just that good sir "

Axel motioned for the crowd to make some space as he touched the items on the counter with his blade. The sword was atomised as the blade absorbed it and the armor was similarly absorbed before a set of gauntlets, and grieves formed upon his body.

" Oh this is so exciting! "

The attendant squealed, as she watched with great interest.

Axel then received two notifications

2 damage

1 defense

' sweet '

Axel made the sword disappear, and moved toward the quest counter full of confidence.

" Hello sir, I'd like a quest! "

An older gentleman clad in hard leather looked Axel over before handing him a sheet of paper that read: Quest ! Explore the mists, and slay 5 monsters.

" Alright, thank you sir! "

Axel made a small salute, and waved to the crowd as he made his way out into the world.
