Combat Classes IV

Midday sunlight streamed through the luxurious curtains as Kyren slowly opened his eyes. In his arms laid the heavenly goddess known as Rayna, the girl he went crazy for last night. He stared at her still sleeping face with a gentle smile.

<Now that your awake, I'll teach you how to manipulate your mana to prevent pregnancy. Every player is given this knowledge just in case.

Even though your species are vastly different, dragons can actually impregnate practically any female.>

'Really?!'

<Yes, when the child is born of a dragon and a separate species, they will gain a sub-species of Dragonborn. Now all you have to do is...>

.....

He finished casting the "morning after" magic and looked at her tranquil sleeping face.

As his thoughts raced, he came to a conclusion, 'I absolutely cannot let her sacrifice her life for me. Even though I'm an immortal player, there are still things that can permanently wipe me from this world...' He stroked her hair, 'Leo, is there anything I can do?'

<You can use a shooting star wish to place a curse on her. This will prevent her from choosing to sacrifice her life for you.>

'Curse? Is that safe?'

<Yes, it isn't absolute though, so if she discovers it, she might try to dispel it or find a loophole. It should work the first couple of times until she catches on.>

'Do it then. Make sure she doesn't know.'

A transparent black magic circle appeared above her body and then disappeared. Rayna would've been pissed if she was awake and noticed what he was doing to her, even if he was her master.

He silently got dressed and left a spare key with her. It was now time for his final combat class. The Mega Berserker will be his most frequently used class and his main class so he needed to pay attention.

.....

Now in the same white room, he activated the scroll and the gate appeared. This gate was far larger and more divine than the other two. When the doors opened, Kyren fell to his hands and knees as the pressure he felt was far too great for him to handle.

The being that stepped out was truly monstrous. He was 4-5 meters tall with colossal muscles, his arms and legs were the size of large tree trunks despite not flexing and his eyes were a intense glowing fluorescent orange.

Gold particles were coming off of his body and they were as bright as embers.

Every step he took shook the entire room and his overly wide grin showed razor sharp animal teeth. His head looked a bit smaller compared to his unreal body build showing that he was originally small but bulked up.

Leo identified him as a lion type beast man and the explosive looking hair and sideburns that were groomed backwards like a mane backed him up.

"So you're the little dragon everyone in the spirit world is gossiping about? They made me think you were some Elder Dragon monster, but your only an adolescent..."

'Holy shit!!! This guy makes the other two high-grade spirits look like children!!!'

<This is a pinnacle-grade spirit... he was most likely in the Transcendent Realm before he died.>

'What's a pinnacle-grade spirit?!'

<Their are only five known grades of spirits. The dweller, low, mid, high, and then pinnacle. Their has been no recorded data of anything stronger than the beast man before you. There might be something but that possibility is negligible.

"!!!"

"I do have to admit that I'm looking forward to seeing if you can actually grasp the class Mega Berserker.... do you know what they are?"

<You have discovered the proficiency, [Under Pressure Composure].>

"No, I don't truly," He managed to slowly stand up after getting a little used too his unconscious aura.

"You are kinda interesting... A Mega Berserker is not to be mistaken with those cowardly and weak regular Berserkers or Crusaders. It's one of the few classes that needs requirements to be met before one can learn and use it."

An absolutely massive golden hammer suddenly appeared in his hand. The size was double the beast mans size and the hammer itself was larger than a car. He handled it as if it were a toothpick and he tossed it to Kyren's right side.

"This is one of my lighter war hammers. Move it to be qualified for my teachings."

He lifted it slightly to test its weight but it didn't budge. He used all his strength but it still didn't budge. He transformed into the humanoid dragon from reaper training and lifted with all his might, but it only shifted slightly by a centimeter.

"You have some hope I guess. Even the weakest Mega Berserker would usually swing two of those at a time like they're twigs. The purpose of this class is to use heavy and super heavy weapons as though they were made of feathers in an overly aggressive manner to cause the most damage or destruction in a short amount of time."

"....."

"Since the moment my gate appeared, you knew this course wouldn't be a simple apex course. You've caught my interest so I'm bumping this up to an ultimate class.

'An Ultimate class? I thought super was the limit before the higher realm?'

<The ranks before the Transcendent Realm are beginner, amateur, apprentice, regular, adept, intermediate, professional, expert, master, apex, super, and then finally ultimate.>

"You can actually change the learning so drastically?! I only payed for an apex."

"HAHAHA," His laugh made the air vibrate as his hearty chuckle shook the room, "You can't compare me to those weaklings in the high-grade spirit realm! Also, I'll slow time to a tenth of the real worlds so that we have time to give you a good foundation."

"S-So how long do you think it will take?" He was terrified to hear the answer.

"I'd say around 6 real world days."

"T-That's 2 months!?! What about eating and resting?" Although he was a dragon that didn't need to eat or sleep for unsettlingly long periods of time, that didn't mean he wouldn't pass out from exhaustion or starve.

"Hmm, you'll get very little rest. The food consumption on the other hand will be staggering for even a dragon!! You're too skinny to be swinging a true weapon like this around!"

He reached into circular portal and took out two pieces of meat that were still on the bone and were the size of whole cows. They were well done and juicy with some lingering steam coming off of them.

"This one is for you, it's basilisk thighs. You have 25 minutes to finish it all. You're not allowed to turn into a dragon to eat it. Be careful of the poison."

The meat plopped down in front of him, making him stumble from the impact on the ground.

'25 minutes!?! Poison?! Screw reaper training, this is outright insane!'

He was thoroughly stumped on how he would complete this task. He took off his mask and tried taking a bite but the meat was tough. He changed his teeth and his poison immune system into that of a dragon's and started chomping away. Every bite felt like he was eating a feast, his stomach easily filled after only half a dozen mouthfuls.

Meanwhile, the beast man finished his basilisk thigh in around 40 seconds! he even took out more food and started devouring it.

'Why did his stomach not grow? It's like he processed it right away... That's it!'

He activated his magic and mental energy to start processing and distributing the food to his muscles and organs immediately. His originally full stomach drained at a rate visible to the naked eye.

<You have discovered the new skill, [Magical Digestion].>

"Hohoho, you truly do learn fast! I guess this won't be a wasted trip."

He finished the meat at the 23 minute mark and his body was overflowing with pent up energy. The poison only petrified him every once in awhile but his resistance was to vast so it didn't affect him to much.

You have discovered the innate curse:

Dragon's Hunger (curse of gluttony)

Racial Curse

{Description}

Dragons indeed eat a lot but when they eat excessive amounts, they'll activate the innate curse [???] to cope. If a dragon is starved, there is a chance to activate the innate curse [Dragon's Anger].

{Solution}

Burn off the excess energy. Make sure your thoroughly fed.

{Severity}

Extreme

•<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<•

"Teacher? I need to burn off this energy before one of my racial curses activate."

"I already planed to do that. Hehe, you're in for a treat."

.....

The following week was filled with eating and a hell like training that made the apex martial artists course look like a walk in the park. His body was slowly turning into that of a body builders dream.

All of his basic attributes except intelligence rose tremendously. He could also eat literal tons of food without breaking a sweat.

He still had the free attribute points from when he leveled up and they could've helped with adapting to the training, but he didn't use them. They were going to be saved for emergencies.

After the week ended, the beast man started teaching advanced techniques for every weapon imaginable. Not to mention the complexity of the technique, using the heavy weapons themselves was absolutely draining. But his improvements were heaven defying and the personal styles he invented were terrifying and unique.

The beast man purposely made this training impossible for someone in the Mortal Realm to see where his limit was. But when he didn't see a limit and Kyren kept training, he now figured out why the other two high-grade spirits called him a monster among monsters. And he only just recently became a C~grade!
