12 Chapter -11- [The grind never stops-2] 

When he saw the monsters showing themselves in the street and the leader-class Gray Wolf accompanying them, he quickly moved towards them.

[Kuhaaaang!]

[Auuuuuwww!!]

Thanks to his stealth technique, he stabbed the giant Gray Wolf, who had no idea he was coming, in the weak spot behind its ear, killing it instantly.

[You have awakened Spearmanship Lv Max. You can evolve it to the next level skill. If you have the skill evolution materials.] 

The spear went straight through its brain, behind its ear, and the monster died before it realized anything. And Il Han had not lifted his invisibility. 

[You have earned 12,904 experience.]

[You have earned the record of Lv35 Brown Direwolf.]

[You have reached Level 10. Increases +2 Strength, +1 Agility, +1 Health, +1 Magic].

[You can no longer level up until you choose a class. All required recordings will be available after you choose a class.]

[All of your records will be materialized into possibilities. You can acquire one of the classes below.]

[1. Assassin]

[2. Grappler]

[3. Swordsman]

[4. Blacksmith]

[5. Shielder]

[6. Hunter]

[...]

[...]

[23. Lancer]

[24. Phantom Assassin]

At that moment, Yu Il Han absorbed the huge amount of experience and classes that Gray Wolf had, and countless writings appeared in front of his eyes.

"Erta. It says I have 24 classes to choose from. The last one is Phantom Assassin. Only this one has a descriptive name in front of the class. I'd like to choose this one, what do you think?"

[24 for the 1st class? And a descriptive word..? That's a unique job! To think that you will acquire a unique job from the first job!]

Meanwhile, Erta paled in fright when she heard that there were 24 jobs for his first class.

A unique job. That was, in other words, a class that only existed for one existence. A class that appears when his path, achievements and records become one to write a new strike that didn't exist in the world. It was optimized for that existence, so obviously, its performance was exceptional.

[24 within just two days of being in contact with the Akashic Records.. If you had more time, then you might have seen 30, or even 40.]

"Erta. We have to be fast now. If there's no problem, I will choose Phantom Assassin."

[Choose that no matter what! Moreover, Phantom.. The descriptive word looks good too. It must be a job that focuses on your concealment skill. No doubt about it!]

"All right. I choose Phantom Assassin."

[You have become a Phantom Assassin. When attacking while concealed, Critical chance increases by 20%. When using a weapon with a blade, your strength increases by 20%.]

[Concealment skill, the conditions for the evolution of the skills of Knife-related weapons become easier.]

[You absorb the piled-up records. You have become level 14. +6 Strength, +6 Agility, +4 Health, +4 Magic.]

[You cannot use mana. You cannot learn active skills.]

'..I was expecting that. I mean, it doesn't matter that it doesn't give a special active skill. The passive abilities that the class brings are enough.'

"I can't use mana. I can't learn active skills."

[Earning 2 unique abilities in the first job is close to a miracle. Moreover, they are abilities that fit your characteristics.]

"Yeah, that's what I also thought. Thanks for making me feel better, Erta."

[Well, you can rest assured since most people don't learn skills for their first job. ..Although looking at your growth rate, I think you won't be able to use mana even by the time you earn your 2nd job. Even if you don't get a new skill right now, there are no wasted records. If you didn't gain a skill in the 1st and 2nd advancement, you will gain a strong skill in your 3rd advancement. For an ordinary person, if they don't have an active skill, they might have problems ascending to their 3rd job, but if it's related to your skill, then I think it's quite possible.]

"I don't really need it. The skills I have developed over the centuries are enough for me right now."

The stats that accumulated at that moment gave his body a little comfort. And Il Han looked at the wolf pack in front of him.

At that moment, his status automatically renewed itself and appeared on his retina.

[ Yu Il Han ]

[ Human | Phantom Assassin | Lv 14 ]

[ Titles – Pancosmic Loner, Parcae's Champion ] 

[ Strength – 231 ] [ Agility – 209 ] [ Health – 216 ] [ Magic – 39 ]

[ Active Skill – Concealment Lv Max, Mana Crafting Lv 3 ]

[ Passive Skills – Close Quarters Combat Lv Max, Swordsmanship Lv Max, Dismantling Lv Max, Throwing Lv Max, Spearmanship Lv Max ]

'He learned a unique job so he should have originally acquired two active skills. However, he didn't, and a record will remain and it will pass on. If the same thing repeats in the 2nd advancement, and he reaps the rewards in the 3rd advancement...' Just what kind of skill would he earn. She shuddered just thinking about it.

'Ah, is there another lower existence that is worth watching over like this person?' She laughed and pulled at Yu IlHan's hair for no reason.

[Well then, move.]

Il Han had already acted before she even said a word... He threw his spear towards where the four highly developed dogs were standing in a row and grabbed the blades on his back. He lifted his concealment. There were many creatures. He wanted them to attack him rather than the other people. The monsters in the streets, far from being afraid after the death of their leader, saw him and attacked him fiercely.

"Ah.. The creatures are heading that way!"

"Oh god.. There are too many of them. And there's a man right there, fighting them alone!"

"Wait, I will use a fire spell on them!"

"Soldiers! Really, these guys are never here when we need them!"

Almost at the same time as Il Han's first attack, people realized that monsters were attacking and fled in fear. Those who fled in silence, those who calmly reported the events, those who looked for the army or shelter..

They didn't seem to have gone to other worlds for 10 years for nothing as they reacted calmly to the monsters, but amidst them, a few clumsy people were trying to show off their non-existent fireballs with their non-existent mana.

[Kuhvaaa!]

And a wild dog which disdained that man barked slowly and attacked him. Il Han, who half-expected that situation, swung his blade once to throw them all apart and kicked off the ground. 

The moment the strength stored in his body kicked the ground, it was purely turned into thrusting force and his body shot out like a cannonball. As he moved at high speed, he danced with his blades, slicing and dicing the creatures in his path.

[You have earned 3100 experience.]

[You have earned the record of Lv23 Grey Wolf.]

[You have earned 2100 experience.]

[You have earned 1600 experience,]

On the way to his spear, he threw one of the blades at the creature that was about to attack the man. After picking up his spear, he reattached the only blade he had left to his back.

[Kak!]

[ You have earned 1700 experience. ]

[ You have earned the record of Lv18 Wandering Dog. ]

The monsters who didn't deviate their gazes from him from the beginning, glared at Yu IlHan with an 'I will kill that guy and live' gaze while shortening their distances with Yu IlHan after their comrade died. Anyway, it was fortunate that other people weren't in danger now.

"Please, step back. The levels of these monsters range from 15 to 20, some even above 20. If you do not believe you can fend for yourself, retreat to a safe area."

Il Han warned without looking back. However, the one who had been rescued after failing to get flames out of his hands shouted in shock when he saw the Wolf mask.

"Wolf mask...!?"

Without waiting to see what they would say next, Il Han took the blade from the head of the beast from which he had rescued the man, placed it on his back and attacked the monsters again.

Hearing what the previous man had said, one of them began to speak.

"Perhaps, Crimson Bolt!?"

"What, did you just say Crimson Bolt!?"

"That cheap Wolf mask... It's really Crimson Bolt!"

For some time, that embarrassing nickname was spread out loud! Il Han ran away to avoid listening to their useless chatter.

The returnees were adapting too well to the situation. They all distanced themselves and watched the fight. Someone even took out a smartphone and recorded Il Han's fighting on a video. Yu Il Han was athletically targeting the creatures' weak points with his spear. He inflicted minimal damage to the monsters' bodies.

[You have earned 1600 experience.]

[You have earned 1850 experience.]

[You have earned 3500 experience.]

[You have earned the record of Lv27 Grey Wolf.]

Many writings appeared in front of his eyes. But Il Han didn't have time to look at them right now.

And when the number of monsters had dwindled down to the tens, there was an opening where the monsters had first appeared, and there was a huge, howling wolf. And Il Han had been waiting for this moment.

[Auuuuuuuu!]

[It's the second strongest. It seems like it's passing some sort of order down so be careful.]

"...You want me to be careful?" Il Han activated his stealth and rushed towards the newly arrived wolf.

At that moment, five wild dogs, who had moved away from him and were just watching him carefully, looked around when he suddenly disappeared.

[Kuhaaang!]

"Hehheh!"

As Il Han was moving towards the big wolf, one of the sidekick monsters was dragging a woman towards the wolf.

"Aaahh… Please.. Help mee!!!"

[Auuuuuww!! Ugh?]

[You have earned 6700 experience.]

[You have earned the record of Lv32 Cunning Big Wolf.]

Before the big wolf could even start his show, its head was pierced by Il Han's spear. And the dog that dragged the woman after the big wolf also suffered the wrath of Il Han's spear.

[You have earned 1800 experience.]

The dead big wolf still had contempt in its eyes. But the poor monster had left the world without even realizing how he had died. The creatures have developed an intelligence, they think they can take hostages and force people to surrender or something. But of course these little games didn't stand a chance against absolute power. And this poor monster realized that at the cost of his life.

Il Han looked to see if the woman had any wounds on her body that could be made worse if she was carried carelessly. When he saw that she was not, he threw her over his shoulder and went to the other people who were watching.

[You have earned 1600 experience.]

Of course, on the way there, he did not forget to hunt the few monsters left behind.

He went to the other people and sat her on the bench. The woman looked at Il Han with her mouth open and her eyes filled with tears, shocked by the whole situation. 

"You're welcome." Hearing Il Han say this, the woman's tears began to flow and she thanked him with silent sobs.

"Can you take the lady to a place where she can get medical aid? I need to see if there are any other monsters left behind."

"Leave it to us, Crimson bolt!!"

At that moment, the soldiers arrived on the scene. But unfortunately they arrived too late. Il Han had already cleared out most of the creatures.

"2nd platoon, move out fast!"

They killed the few remaining dogs with their weapons, but the scene before them stunned them all. 

Il Han looked up with a sigh of weariness at the thought of skinning so many creatures after the last of the wild dogs had stopped breathing. The stares pierced him mercilessly, like the ones after he had gone on a rampage on campus the day before.

And there was one that gave him the most fierce gaze, and it was the gaze of the platoon leader. It was a second lieutenant that had a pressed beret on her head. She shouted while looking directly at the Wolf mask that Il Han was wearing.

"I finally found you. Crimson Bolt!!"

"Ahh.. Leave me alone, please." Il Han fixed his spear to his back, took one of the blades in his hand and began to dismantle the big wolf. 

After all that slaughter, he was upgraded to level 22.

[ You have become level 22. +9 Strength, +11 Agility, +9 Health, +11 Magic.]
