Classes

The second this notification sounded, the temple quickly stabilised as the doors quickly flung open.

But to everyone's shock, they found that the door led themselves into a completely different location.

Leon didn't care about the looks of everyone else and confidently stepped out, with Lucy and Lucas following on closely behind him.

The crowd watched on hesitantly before they all followed after Leon and his group, stepping through the temple doors.

The moment the group stepped out of the temple.

The entire sky began to shake as a thunder-like rumble resounded across the entire realm.

Under the disbelieving eyes of the people below, the sky itself seemed to crack open as a humongous pillar of golden light shot down from the sky. And it didn't just stop there within seconds of the first light beam, Countless more golden pillars of light shot down, spreading out over as far as the eye can see.

It was like a dazzling light show, easily gasping the attention of everyone present, and it was because of this that nobody seemed to notice something else that was happening alongside the light show

Whilst everyone's eyes were focused on the sky, a faint shadow started to stir at a dark corner within the temple and whilst everyone was occupied with the golden beams, Leon included, the Shadow Quickly fled into the distance.

As the shadow scurried away, nobody seemed to notice this change. Nobody except one,

Lucy.

The moment the shadow left, Lucy's brows seemed to furrow as she suddenly started to look around.

Sensing this change, Leon looked towards her with a puzzled expression.

"Is something wrong?" Asked Leon.

As she looked around, Lucy's frown only deepened, and she turned back towards Leon with an uncertain expression.

"Just now I thought I felt something, but I must have been wrong."

Seeing that Lucy didn't dwell on it too much, Leon decided to ignore it as well and looked back towards the giant pillars of light in the sky.

Leon could see there were countless golden pillars scattered across the horizon at numerous locations, but what was most eye-catching were the three humongous pillars of light that seemed to be in the centre of it all.

Compared to these golden beams, all the others seemed to be as thin as toothpicks!

Just as Leon was beginning to admire the show, a loud rumble appeared in the sky again as the lights faded away just as quick as they had appeared.

For a short while, there was a stunned silence as the crowd took some time to accept what they had just witnessed.

Just as you'd thought they would remain in silence forever, a timid voice rang out.

"So, what do we do now?"

Slowly, the crowd began to turn towards the strongest and most confident around them.

Feeling the multiple gazes on him, Leon just sighed before he spoke up.

"You've all seen the countless golden beams in the sky. They are obviously important, so I say our best bet would be to love towards the three largest pillars that were grouped together and work our way from there."

For a second there was a brief silence, before numerous muttering of agreement sounded out.

Seeing this, Leon nodded in satisfaction before speaking up once more.

"But seeing as it's dark right now, it's best to rest in the temple before heading out tomorrow morning. Besides, we need to make sure that there is still food being provided by the temple every day or else we'd truly have a problem on our hands."

An ugly expression broke out onto the faces of almost everyone when they heard Leon's words.

Every day the temple would provide them with a set of dry rations which included some dry jerky, loads of bread, and some water.

Although this wasn't much, it was what these people had used to survive these last few days, otherwise they would have starved to death long ago. If the temple stopped producing their daily rations, then they would truly have a problem on their hands.

Leon didn't have time to address the people's concerns about where their next meal would come from and quickly dismissed them after giving an order to set up camp for the night.

After all, Leon's hesitation and uncertainty was all completely fabricated to keep up appearances.

Once those pillars of light showed up in the sky, Leon instantly recognised what they symbolised.

Each pillar of light represented a location in which the people could undergo a class change.

Of course, Leon wouldn't be so stupid as to spread this sort of information and start drawing suspicion towards himself.

But just because Leon didn't want to draw some suspicion towards himself, didn't mean he would do something completely useless.

The classes available from the golden pillars were all only common classes, but even if Leon didn't want to select them, they could still be selected by others.

Since Lucy and Lucas were planning on accompanying him, they may as well choose a common class for now.

If it was possible, Leon would want them to hold off on choosing a common class and wait for a while until he could get a much stronger hidden class. The problem was that Leon was too busy trying to survive at this stage in his last life and had no idea of the location of the hidden classes within the tutorial!

Besides hidden classes, Leon knew the location of some game changing items that could boost his strength, but how could such vital items be shared with others?

So if Lucy and Lucas were to hold off on getting a hidden class, the problem that they would face is that the difference between someone who had gotten a class and someone who hadn't was just too large

Although Lucas and Lucy were very talented, just the acquisition of one class was enough to make up for it.

With the confidence of his skills and the items that he would gain in the future, Leon was confident to far surpass the majority of people with common classes.
