Not as expected

"Somehow I feel like my luck is disappearing, like the God of Luck took all my luck."

"God of Luck? There hasn't been such a god since the First Era."

What is the reason the Gods created religions? Helping mortals. Their number of followers at least would not affect their strength, nor would it affect their survival.

To the God of Luck, what was the point of helping mortals? There isn't any. That's why he has no followers, and that's why mortals don't consider him to exist.

"Anyway, somehow I feel like my luck is gone."

"Luck is not that important. The most important thing is effort and hard work."

"Of course luck is important. Only by working hard, you will not be able to win the gamble."

"Gambling?! Gambling is not good, it is forbidden!"

"That's why, so that I can win at gambling again, I donate my wealth in the hope that good karma will befall me and my luck will return again."

"Don't do gambling, gambling is not good! It will only make you poor."

"But still, gambling is-"

Lucas instinct suddenly sensed danger.

His mind immediately accelerated, allowing him to feel everything around him seem to slow down, even his own body.

It wasn't magic that slowed down the surroundings, but the effect of his mind running too fast, so that the surroundings seemed to slow down.

This was the ability of the Empyrean Soul.

'There was one arrow speeding behind me, it didn't look like it had penetrated the window yet. It looked like it would penetrate me and injure the Saintess in front of me. What should I do?'

There is a possibility that the arrow is from the Satanic Order. If he dodged it, there was a possibility that they would wonder how he had dodged the arrow. It would also put him under surveillance again.

In that case…

Instead of dodging it, he simply shifted his body slightly, and allowed the arrow to penetrate a non-vital area of the body.

Finally the arrow pierced through the glass, then through his body, followed by piercing Agnes's body.

"We're becoming donuts, Saintess." Lucas commented casually.

"Argh!!" Agnes groaned in pain.

"Saintess!"

The five guards immediately closed in on them, and formed a formation to surround them before activating the barrier.

A Saintess bodyguard who was a priest immediately helped her and healed her.

Lucas summoned Sacred Horse to heal himself.

"Amara, how are the Saintess?" the Saintess bodyguard named Cedric asked frantically.

"This is bad, there is a curse in the arrow, I can't heal it quickly." Amara replied.

"Shit, who did it!"

The situation turned abysmal. The archer also has not been found. On top of that, the blood that kept pouring out from the Saintess' wound, made them even more panicked.

They really want to get out of that place. But moving carelessly would only give the archer the advantage.

It was in such a situation that Lucas suddenly said, "I excused myself to go first."

"Please be careful on the way back." Instinctively Amara answered that.

She suddenly felt something was off. In a situation like this the young man wanted to leave in such a relaxed manner?

She saw Lucas who was also hit by an arrow.

His clothes were indeed damaged, but his wounds had healed.

"How did you recover so quickly?"

Lucas just pointed at the Sacred Horse next to him.

"Pegasus?"

"No. I am a Druid, and this is my spirit."

Amara was shocked to hear that. The druid class is monopolized by Elderwood Village, and the village itself is one of the strongest organizations in the world. She had not expected to meet their members here.

"Can I ask for help to heal the Saintess?"

"Just touch her to it."

He actually didn't want to interfere in the matters of the Satanic Order. But if he refused her request, they might think of him as someone who cooperated with the Satanic Order.

Amara made Agnes' hand touch the Sacred Horse, and immediately Agnes was healed.

"Then I'll go first."

"Wait a minute!"

"Especially?"

"How are you going? There are still archers outside whose location is unknown."

"Teleportation."

"Cedric," Amara called out to her partner. "He can use teleportation."

Lucas could read what happened after this. He immediately said, "The item I use can only be used on two people."

Agnes was actually not his type. But since she's pretty, there's nothing wrong with devising sordid schemes.

Cadric who was still on guard while raising his shield and sword thought.

It would be great to get the Saintess out of this situation. But Lucas was someone they didn't know. Is it right to trust an extremely important Saintess, who exists only one in the world, to this unknown youth? It could be that this young man was a member of the Satanic Order in disguise.

"No, we keep the Saintess here." Cedric made his choice.

Lucas was a bit disappointed by that. But it doesn't matter that there are many opportunities in the future.

"Excuse me."

If it wasn't him, but other Chosen Ones here, they might be more than happy to help the Saintess. Reasons such as: making the Saintess one of their harems, getting the love of the Saintess, or just for the sake of upholding justice.

But Lucas didn't care about all those reasons. The Saintess wasn't his type, nor was he a good person, nor was he one who would put beautiful trash into his harem.

There was not a single reason for him to help the Saintess.

Precisely he would benefit from escaping. The Satanic Order would consider him a coward, and in the end they would not suspect him of being the Chosen One.

The sun was already up.

Lucas was at the restaurant at the hotel where he was staying.

It's been a day since that incident.

While eating, he listened to the conversations of the people around him.

"You know, the Saintess was attacked yesterday?"

"Yeah, I heard that too. It's said the Saintess was kidnapped by the Satanic Order."

"Why did they kidnap her?"

"I don't know, but isn't it a common thing for the Satanic Order to kidnap a Saintess?"

"But what exactly did they do after kidnapping the Saintess?"

Of course they intended to sacrifice the Saintess to their god.

But yesterday, it was clearly a assassination, not a kidnapping. If it was kidnapping, there was no way they would shoot Agnes with a cursed arrow.

Lucas uses All Seer to see the truth.

After he escaped, a fierce battle actually ensued. Cedric and the other guards are overwhelmed by the Saintess who is inexperienced in battle.

In the end, since they were already in a corner, they randomly teleported Agnes.

After that, the situation reversed, those who were overwhelmed, became very aggressive in fighting.

The result of the battle was won by the Saintess. Even though they lost one life, and the lost Saintess.

But that wasn't something that surprised Lucas.

What surprised Lucas was that now Agnes was with Celestia.

"Fate seems to have guided the girl."

After Lucas finished eating, he went to the toilet before teleporting away without anyone noticing.

Lucas was now in a large, spacious room, but dark with little light. In front of him was a coffin.

Right now the Satanic Order didn't pay attention to him, and in the future it was possible that they would pay attention to him again. That's why it's the right time to get the remaining two classes.

The God of Luck had said to him, that by the time he got to Elysium, there would be very few Demigods.

That was why he had instructed him to kill demigods who were dead, or who had turned undead.

Even though it had become undead, it still had the blood of a god within it. So it still meets the requirements.

The coffin in front of Lucas suddenly opened, with the lid flying up into the air.

Lucas jumped back and prepared to fight. He summoned all his spirits.

Flame Dog, Sacred Horse, and Thunder Bird.

The Thunder Bird had the appearance of an eagle, but it was enveloped in lightning all over its body.

Now that he already had Infinity Mana, he no longer hesitated to summon the Sacred Horse.

The Undead Demigod emerged from its coffin. It was now only bone, with the hand holding a white katana. Even though it was undead, but there was no loathsome aura around it, instead there was a glory golden aura there.

The undead moved, and its katana reached right beside Lucas' neck.

Lucas immediately shivered with fear. Luckily he had an Soul of Empyrean, with it he could slow down time.

"Fuck! I almost died."

But it would be quite a hassle to carry out his plan.

The main level up is affected by the enemies killed, but the class level up is based on how long or often he uses the skills of that class.

This time, he planned to level up his Druid.

"Whatever, I already have Infinity Mana after all."

With Infinity Mana he could continue to slow down time while his spirits attacked the Undead.

< Congratulations! Your Druid class leveled up! >

[39 → 40]

< Congratulations! You level up! >

[69 → 99]

Everything seems to be running smoothly.

Nothing bothered him. He didn't even have a wound. Whether it's druid level or main level, all of them level up.

But…

"I didn't get the Mystical Slayer class!"
