5 Chapter 5: Enchantress
After having pondered for a long time, Nero decided, "I'm going to take a chance... I'm going to choose Uneven!"
_ _
[Are you sure you want to choose the class: [Uneven] Yes or No?]
_ _
Nero clicked on [Yes].
_ _
· You have increased 5 energy points.
· You have increased 5 Strength points.
_ _
It didn't even take a second for a new holographic screen to appear.
_ _
· Subclasses: Enchantress (Blocked).
· Requirements yet to be met to be able to unlock to class [Enchantress].
_ _
'A Subclass?' Having gained 5 points in strength and energy had already surprised her and now a subclass was even more surprising. This was clearly beyond her expectations.
It also made her believe that she made the right choice in choosing the Uneven class.
Closing the holographic pages, she opened the character page.

Nero now had more than 100 Essence Coins. She clicked on [Enchantress].
_ _
· [Do you want to consume 100 Essence Coins and unlock the Subclass: [Enchantress] - Yes or No?]
_ _
Nero clicked on [Yes].
_ _

· You have increased 5 strength points.
Subclass [Enchantress] Level 1: Unlocked.
Skill [Tame Monster] Level 1 is available.
_ _
Nero closed her eyes and felt her energy growing. She could also feel something new in her body being created. Even though she had never used the Enchantress class, she could feel that now she was one. It was strange to her that it didn't seem strange.
Opening her eyes, she looked at the holographic page that had just opened. She then clicked on [Taming Monster].
_ _
[Taming Monster: The lower the animal's overall health, the greater the chance of success].
_ _
Nero was surprised at first and then jumped for joy. To be able to capture monsters and make them fight for her, was there a better and safer way to fight?
'No, no there is not!' A charming and moving smile formed on her lips and she soon went to get her first monster to be captured.
'There are only slimes in this place.' Nero reflected after walking a bit. 'This Green Slime seems to be the best choice.'
Just when she thought about taming a Green Slime, one came jumping from behind a tree. Nero's lips curved in a smile and she took a stone with the intention of weakening that Green Slime.
_ _
[Queen's throw] – [Taming Monster]
_ _
With the skills page open, she clicked on [Queen's throw]. When asked to select the target, she chose Green Slime.
Nero's body moved by itself and she hurled the stone that was surrounded by a blue aura.
*Whoosh!*
*Pow!*
Green Slime was sent back and was weak on the ground, almost lifeless.
Nero didn't even give Level 3 Green Slime a chance to get up and approached and clicked on the [Tame Monster] ability.
From her right hand, a green light looking like poisonous smoke left and went towards the Green Slime. Nero believed it would be better if she aimed it at Green Slime with her hand and that is just what she did.
_ _
· [Successful capture of Green Slime Level 3!]
· [Green Slime is available to be summoned]
_ _
A new holographic window opened with a page with ten grids, one of which was [Green Slime - Level 2].
'It was reduced to level 2...' This, however, did not discourage her. Perhaps there was a way to increase the level of her Slime and seeing that there were 9 more slots available, she thought about taming even more monsters. However, it would not be good to tame only Slime. Nero thought about finding other stronger monsters later.
The idea of going to find a city or village crossed her mind, but soon she rejected that idea. It didn't seem to be the same world that she had once lived in and Nero didn't know if this world was peaceful or not. If she was unlucky, she would be captured and enslaved by someone.
'I need to stay strong...'
Only being very strong would she feel safe, and looking at her wings, she thought that if she flew it would also help if she needed to escape.
Yawning, she felt tired. It was no mistake; Nero had spent the night hunting Slime. Only, the thought of sleeping in a monster-filled forest was dangerous. However, she remembered that she could now tame monsters.
'If I domesticate at least one more monster and put it on watch, I could sleep more peacefully.'
Looking at the Green Slime slot, she clicked on the screen.
_ _
· Summon [Green Slime Level 2]?
_ _
She clicked [Yes].
In front of her, a Green Slime appeared. Green Slime looked at her with its big, round eyes.
When she summoned Green Slime, Nero felt that ¼ of her mana was consumed.
Another holographic page opened and Nero saw the writing [Green Slime] - Attack: [Spit Acid].
Since she never had had yet been attacked, she didn't know that Green Slime had this attack, so she was a little surprised.
When she walked, Green Slime came after her jumping.
The most incredible thing was that as she was browsing through what all she could do, the option appeared for her to use her own skills or Green Slime's skills. If she clicked on a tree as a target, she could make Green Slime spit acid on the tree.
Wanting to test the level of damage caused by Green Slime, she chose a close by tree and made Green Slime attack it.
Green Slime jumped until it reached the front of the tree and spat out a slimy green liquid.
It wasn't far, therefore it was easy for Green Slime to get it right. The moment the viscous green liquid caught the wood of the tree, a strong smell of something rotten came and Nero saw the spot that the acid spit hit being melted.
'Although the effect is slow, it is more potent than I expected,' Nero thought with satisfaction.
With her coordinating things, she was sure that this attack would be even more dangerous, since slime was slow in nature and rarely attempted to attack, which made it easy to defeat Slime.
