47: The idea of ​​creating a career

"Perhaps I can create a Class of my own?"

The three elements of a Class: [belief], [precept], and [ritual].

To put it simply, the object of [belief] is the buyer of a deed of sale.

Once the deed is signed, the seller belongs to the buyer, and they can use the buyer's name to swindle others while out and about.

It's like borrowing a tiger's skin to make a banner; the words are crude, but the logic is sound.

"Since I don't want to sell myself, why can't I believe in myself?"

At this thought, Arthur's eyes lit up.

Even without a Class, Arthur himself is at the Third Rank, possessing innate extraordinary power.

As a Synthetic Organism, his current racial limit is the Fourth Rank, so a Class created based on this could also reach the Fourth Rank.

Furthermore, as he continues biological synthesis in the future to improve his racial potential, the rank limit of his self-created Class will also increase.

"As for the [precept], that's even easier to handle."

"My precept will be [Follow One's Heart], only doing what I want to do. Or simply [Do As One Pleases], doing whatever I feel like!"

"It might actually work!"

After some thought, Arthur felt as if a path to the heavens had opened before him; he only needed to move forward to reach the end and ascend to godhood.

But soon, before Arthur could even finish his chuckle, he hit a snag.

The key lies in the [ritual].

The ritual is the key to Class advancement; without it, even if one changes classes, they would be stuck at the First Rank.

"I still have too little information regarding rituals; the only one I currently know is the advancement ritual for the Mage Profession from the First to the Third Rank."

"I need references—lots of them—to discover the commonalities between the advancement rituals of different classes, ideally the full process leading up to the Ninth Rank."

At this, several figures flashed through Arthur's mind.

Goblin Slayer, a Third Rank [Knight], Zoro.

A rookie Adventurer, a First Rank [Warrior], Garen.

"I overheard Garen and Laura's conversation earlier; the city adjacent to the Whispering Forest is Spring Breeze City, one of the four major cities of the Dawn Kingdom."

"In that case... Spring Breeze City will be my next destination."

Having decided on his next move, Arthur's thoughts returned, and he asked the Chieftain the question that had been bothering him for a long time: "How did you get the method for changing classes from Kenchana?"

Facing this question, the Chieftain, who was originally lifeless and decrepit, suddenly perked up. As if experiencing a final burst of energy, he puffed out his chest and replied with pride, "That brings me back to my younger days."

"As a High Goblin, I possess much more Vigorous Energy than ordinary Goblins, and I was immersed in desire almost constantly."

"After capturing that human Female Mage, I 'rewarded' her dozens of times every day until she passed out."

"At first, that human Female Mage was very resistant and uncooperative, even biting me."

"So I tortured her severely and increased the number of 'rewards.' From day to night, and night to day, I never stopped for a moment."

"Finally, through my unremitting efforts, she yielded."

"From initial hatred and resistance to later obedience and enjoyment."

"She told me the method for changing classes during that time."

"Unfortunately, she didn't teach me the most crucial [Meditation Technique]."

"It was also in that year that she bore me eight children. Four died young, and the other four successfully reached adulthood—the four brothers: Jiba, Bi, Nai, and Diao."

At the mention of Jiba, Bi, Nai, and Diao, a flash of pride crossed the Chieftain's cloudy old eyes.

Clearly, those four Goblins made him extremely satisfied.

But soon, that pride was replaced by deep sorrow.

Gob Jiba died under the claws of a Forest Giant Bear; that was fate.

Gobnai and Goblin Diao died during an external expedition; that was also fate.

Gobbi died at the hands of Arthur; that was even more so fate!

Goblins are just that weak, lowly, and insignificant, struggling on the brink of racial extinction.

It's no wonder the Chieftain was so obsessed with Class advancement.

Goblins are truly too useless.

After hearing the Chieftain's response, Arthur's face remained expressionless, but his heart was in turmoil, as if a depth charge had exploded.

His mood at this moment could be described as fluctuating and incredibly complex.

Despite everything the Chieftain said, it all boiled down to one thing.

Through the racial talent of [Vigorous Energy], he had successfully broken Kenchana!

Recalling the red-haired, wavy-haired mature woman he saw in the underground cavern, she clearly looked so cold and aloof, like an ice beauty who kept everyone at a distance.

Who would have thought that she was actually someone with such a contrasting side in private!

For a moment, Arthur didn't know what to say and could only continue listening to the Chieftain share his outrageous feats.

"As for the matter of the oath..."

"Three years ago, I sneaked into the Church of the Goddess of Magic in Spring Breeze City and completed the oath under the witness of the divine statue."

Hearing this, Arthur raised an eyebrow and immediately questioned, "How did you, a Second Rank Goblin, sneak into a major city and enter the church without any hindrance?"

"Was there no one guarding the church?"

The Chieftain scratched his head and fell into a brief memory.

After a moment, the Chieftain said hesitantly, "It seems it was because the Dawn Kingdom and the Lionheart Kingdom were at war. Most of the Professionals in Spring Breeze City had been conscripted to the front lines, leaving the city empty, so I managed to sneak in by luck."

"Lionheart Kingdom!"

Hearing a new term, Arthur immediately searched through his racial inheritance memories.

It's worth mentioning that because the synthetic materials came from different racial creatures, the racial inheritance in Arthur's mind had become more complete, recording more and more comprehensive information.

It was a product of multi-party integration, keeping the essence and discarding the dross.

Strictly speaking, this was now a racial inheritance unique to [Synthetic Organisms].

After some searching, Arthur finally understood what was going on.

Like the Arcane Kingdom and the Dawn Kingdom, the Lionheart Kingdom was the motherland of the [God of War and Justice] during his time as a human; the mainstream Class there is [Warrior].

During the Dark Ages, humans had low strength and were extremely united due to external pressure.

Under the guidance of the Seven Gods, a large number of Professionals appeared among humans, driving out monsters and expanding territory, eventually establishing the Seven Great Kingdoms and ushering in a thousand-year [Golden Age].

For a thousand years, due to the lack of external pressure, the Seven Great Kingdoms developed rapidly; the people lived and worked in peace, Professionals emerged in an endless stream, clearing out residual monsters and obtaining advancement resources, and their territories expanded rapidly.

Given their past experiences, the Seven Great Kingdoms were relatively harmonious and had been living in peace.

But the area of the God-Favored Continent is limited, and over time, the expansion of the Seven Great Kingdoms finally reached its limit.

If they wanted to continue expanding, they could only reach out towards their former compatriots.

In recent years, due to expansion issues, the contradictions between the Seven Great Kingdoms have gradually grown, leading to multiple frictions and conflicts between countries, and many small-scale battles have broken out.

The Chieftain took this opportunity to complete his Class change.
