Chapter 285

(285) Is it really back to how it was?

Translator: Tseirp

For some reason, I was unlocking criminal-type jobs one after the other .

It wasn’t going that well at that point but (although Pimp kind of paled in comparison to the others) the bigger problem started after that .

【Job: Commoner has been sealed】

【Job: Farmer has been sealed】

【Job: Hunter has been sealed】

【Job: Lumberjack has been sealed】

【Job: Apprentice Swordsman has been sealed】

【Job: Apprentice Magician has been sealed】

The endless list showed that the jobs I have been unlocking so far were being sealed .

What … what was happening?

I quickly took at look at my own job .

【Thief Lv1‧Mountain Bandit Lv1‧Pirate Lv1‧Death Warrior‧Lv1‧SlasherLv1】

And they had changed to those 5 jobs .

I tried to change Thief to Commoner .

But there was no response .

“No way ― Status Open!”

I checked my status .

All the jobs that could previously be changed to were all marked as sealed and greyed out .

“Haha! It’s our win . ”

Said the ‘Monster’-user who was just treated .

“You were hit with our leader’s secret technique, the Curse of Darkness Fall! It was a trump card within all trump cards that would make him lose consciousness once used but the curse will make any target fall into criminal jobs . Lament your pitiful fate after putting so much worry just now about us falling into the thief job! And thinking that I am just an ordinary Monster-user is another reason for your loss! In order to return to be a Commoner, you will have to turn yourself in, become an Atonement-seeker and level it up so you are already done for . ”

The ‘Monster’-user said as a snake jumped out from his chest .

I was bothered by how the ‘Monster’-user kindly taught me the way to return to be a Commoner but more importantly, I was more curious about where he kept that huge snake .

“That is a ferocious snake that is native only to the Eastern Continent! Not to mention you who changed into a Lv1 Thief, it can easily defeat small fries like Apprentice Swordsmen and Lumberjacks!”

He said but ― isn’t this a good chance?

First, I changed my first Job and verified my status .

This could work .

I split the snake that attacked me in two with my White Wolf Fang .

It was light .

“Ho … How?”

The ‘Monster’-user said in shock .

“Why? Well, it was a given . ”

Death Warrior and Slasher were quick advanced jobs so they had reasonably high status even at Lv1 . Mountain Bandit and Pirate were advanced jobs too .

In addition to adding up all their status, I still have my ability correction for skills so I could easily defeat a snake or two .

【Ichinojo leveled up】

【Mountain Bandit skill: 「Axe Equip」has skilled up to「Axe Equip II」】

【Mountain Bandit skill: 「Equipment s.n.a.t.c.h」acquired】

【Pirate skill: 「Sense of Balance UP」acquired】

【Pirate skill: 「Bird’s voice」acquired】

【Death Warrior skill: 「Body Boost」has skilled up to「Body Boost II」】

【Death Warrior skill: 「Body Destruction」acquired】

【Slasher skill: 「Instant Kill」acquired】

【Job: Commoner has been released】

Just like the ‘Monster’-user said, Commoner was released once the Atonement-seeker job leveled up .

I tried changing my first job into Commoner .

【Job: Thief has been sealed】

【Job: Mountain Bandit has been sealed】

【Job: Pirate has been sealed】

【Job: Death Warrior has been sealed】

【Job: Slasher has been sealed】

【Job: Pimp has been sealed】

【Job: Chaos Wizard has been sealed】

【Atonement-seeker level has dropped by one】

【Job: Atonement-seeker has been sealed】

【Job: Farmer has been released】

【Job: Hunter has been released】

【Job: Lumberjack has been released】

【Job: Apprentice Swordsman has been released】

【Job: Apprentice Magician has been released】

The sealed jobs were returning to normal one after another .

Hah, so it was a breeze to switch back to normal from the criminal jobs … but in actual fact, normally it would probably not be possible to become an Atonement-seeker without going through a trial or some specific procedure . It’s for certain that the job can’t be changed into at any regular Church .

In that condition, gaining experience points from defeating monsters would be difficult .

And I verified the status of Atonement-seeker just now and all the status were even lower than that of Jobless, making it the weakest job . Not only will it be impossible to defeat monsters in that condition,

My level remained as high as before .

My second to fifth job had also returned to the jobs I set before they changed to criminal jobs .

In addition, the criminal jobs were excluded from the jobs I could change into .

So it’s back to normal, sheesh, it made me worry for a moment .

“After all, your Cursed Spearman’s skill didn’t activate . My job is the same as before . ”

I said before hitting the ‘Monster’-user with my katana kept in its scabbard .

“Hey, brother, are you really okay?”

“Yeah, I’m okay . Everything is back to normal …”

No, wait, is it really back to normal?

I checked my job and realized that there was a difference .

I verified my first job once again .

It was Commoner . Naturally, I changed it to that after all .

In other words, my first job was no longer Jobless .

In the past, before I reached Florence, the status message said this .

【Once Jobless is removed from the first job, you can no longer return to Jobless, are you certain you wish to continue?】

In other words … in other words, I can no longer return to Jobless … ?
