Chapter 1091 + Ranger Class
However, he was intending to use the array disk himself.
His bloodline and constitution allowed him to gain multiple classes. He would be foolish not to add them to his repertoire.
***
Eren was seen standing inside an array.
The array was expanded around him as soon as he sent his mana sense into it and imbued it with his mana. In the next moment, a peculiar mana pulse was released in the surroundings before the array started operating by itself.
Eren had already used his white-haired transformation. His tribal tattoos exuded a faint light. It was as if they were responding to the changes happening around him.
\'*Sigh. It\'s going to hurt like a bitch again.\'
Eren thought to himself before pressing his lips against each other. He then sat cross-legged in the center of the array which was considered the array eye. He closed his eyes and clenched his hands in anticipation of what was coming for him.
The last time Eren received a summoner class, it had given him mind-numbing pain. After all, even with his unique constitution, he was transitioning to being a summoner from being a close combat expert. So he had to face the repercussions of introducing major changes to his mana circuits.
Eren had been through a severe form of mana control training under Alephee\'s guidance. As a result, his tolerance threshold was much higher than a regular ranker\'s. Still, he was unable to ignore the feelings of suffering completely.
\'Fuccccccck!\'
Eren cursed in his head as his mana circuits started getting reforged inside the array. The array started destroying his mana points and mana pathways, forcing him to experience extreme forms of pain.
Eren started sweating all over his body. The skin over his exposed torso and limbs started to rupture, and he turned into a bloody mess all over again. The only reason he didn\'t scream like a madman was that he had sealed his lips using a simple rune.
Eren\'s constitution started adapting to the ongoing changes in real time. His body started healing his injuries and forming new pathways and mana points, which were more complex than before. They were also more malleable than before.
A pool of blood was created around the butcher. He still had his eyes closed. His expressions were distressed, indicating that he was suffering from some form of torture. However, one could also see a tinge of excitement hidden in his expression. The excitement of getting a new class.
Eren lost track of time in the process. When he finally opened his eyes, he felt like he was in a completely different body.
"Hmm? There are indeed visible changes."
Lightning struck and Eren stood up. However, he felt like he was faster than before. The fluency of his movement spells had increased.
"Let\'s see."
Eren started analyzing himself as he stretched his limbs. He started disappearing from one place only to appear in the other corner of the hall.
"I am naturally leaner and taller in this form. My agility has increased. And I can see more clearly than before. My mana sense is also sensitive to long-range activities.
My mana circuits feel different as well."
Eren started using Ken\'s Fist Arts to gauge his strength and found out that it had deteriorated. He also felt that he would have trouble executing his close combat moves with his changed physique and altered mana circuits.
The summoner class Eren was using before this hadn\'t introduced many visible changes to his looks. But that was because the summoner class didn\'t focus on a ranker\'s physicality at all. It focused on enabling the ranker to summon better creatures who would fight the summoner\'s battle.
However, the ranger class was different.
Changing into the ranger class meant that Eren had to focus on executing his long-range attacks all by himself. He didn\'t have the ferocity of a close combat expert at his disposal. So he needed to maintain a safe distance from his opponents.
On the other hand, Eren would be able to target multiple targets simultaneously using long-range attacks in conjunction with the ranger class. He would be able to take care of his enemies without having to face a frontal clash. That is if he used his cards correctly.
"Hm. I have various battle styles at my disposal right now. But none of them would allow me to make full use of this new class.
I need a comprehensive set of spells, weapons, and moves to get the best out of this class."
Afterward, Eren spent a few minutes moving around in the hall. He felt like the more powerful he became, the more fields of study were opening up to him.
Eren had devoured the experiences of a few rangers by this point. So the transition to the Ranger class wouldn\'t be too difficult for him anyway. He just needed to fine-tune those experiences to make them fit his needs.
The butcher was glad for his bloodline at this point. The fact that he could accommodate multiple classes was not the only reason. But he was also glad the fact that he did not have any conflicts with any element he chose. As a result, no matter which class he unlocked for himself, he would be able to use a variety of spells to bring more variation to his battle styles.
Eren felt excited about the work that he was supposed to put into honing the new class. He clenched his fists before speaking to himself.
"I am the least prepared to use the ranger class to its fullest potential today. So it will be tough to get used to it. Still, I have a feeling all my efforts will be worth it.
Keke. One down. Three more classes to claim."
