Running through the dungeon, Shiro had a gun in one hand and a sword in the other.
Whenever she saw a monster on its own, she’d attack them with her sword before ending them with her gun, shortening her fighting time by several seconds.
With this, she effectively killed a mini boss with just 10 seconds of time. Clearing the dungeon with minimal ease, she arrived at the boss room.
‘Say Nimue, should I give this boss a treat or nah?’
{What kind of treat are we talking about here?}
‘The exploding instant kill kind.’ Shiro replied with a smile.
{I suppose I should say yes? Saying no would mean their pain is prolonged.} Nimue shrugged.
‘Very true.’ Shiro chuckled.
Making herself two rail cannons, she chose a high power but low mobility mech suit for the boss since she wanted to kill it before it could reach her.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t as powerful as she had hoped it to be but it would suffice for now.
‘Ah, I can also ask Keomi to help me get some of the pills can’t I?’ Shiro thought to herself while making the armour.
{I thought you would have realised it by now. Since she’s in one of the biggest factions, it would only be natural that she can get a rebirth pill.}
‘I’ll ask her after reaching level 100 then. Who knows, I might even have to get tier 4 attunements with my elements first and we both know that’s basically impossible for me right now.’ Shiro sighed.
If it wasn’t for the limiting factor of her links, she’d be able to cast tier 4 spells by the time she was level 80 due to the sheer amount of mana she had with the armour equipped.
Choosing a type of mech armour dubbed Sigurd, heavy armour started to wrap around her.
*BANG BANG!
Several support pillars extended out of the back of the suit, making it so that when she fires her weapons, she wouldn’t go flying backwards due to their force.
Cannons started to appear around the suit, making Shiro seem like an indomitable walking fortress.
Grinning slightly, she didn’t offer the boss some final words but instead, only pulled the trigger with cold hearted excitement.
*BOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!
Firing a total of 15 cannons that were connected to the suit, light filled the room. Even the walls, that were normally highly resistant to magic, started to melt due to the blast.
As for the walls that were hit directly by the blast, the outer layers evaporated instantly as a crater was formed in the wall.
When the destruction calmed down, all that remained of the boss was just a pair of legs that only went up to the knee caps.
Smiling in satisfaction at its power, Shiro collected the boss’s loot. While this set of armour was very powerful, her mobility is basically reduced to 0 and could only sit there and wait for someone to attack her.
Against a powerful opponent, this was less than optimal since they could just punch a hole through her and kill her instantly.
Leaving the dungeon, she prepared to repeat this till she reached level 100.
###
*BOOM!!!!
Killing the boss for the nth time now, of which she had long lost count, Shiro finally saw the long awaited level up notification.
With her level reaching 100, she was finally given the options to class up.
[- – – Mystic Sylph Queen – – – ]
Class up choices:
1) Luna Sylph Empress
2) Solar Sylph Empress
3) Celestial Sylph Empress
4) Void Ruler
5) Mystic Sylph Queen ★
6) Chosen of Athena
7) Chosen of Aphrodite
“Hou? I actually have 7 class up choices.” Shiro muttered in surprise.
Four of the seven choices were relatively straightforward since they’re a variation of her current class while the Void Ruler, Chosen of Athena and Chosen of Aphrodite are a little out of the norm.
From what she could tell, Chosen of Athena and Aphrodite were similar to what Helion had with his class, Chosen of Hephaestus. Only this time, it was the goddess of war and the goddess of love/beauty.
“I suppose I can understand why both of them chose me but surely there are more people suitable in the world aren’t there? Or could it be that there can be multiple holders of these chosen titles?” Shiro muttered in wonder.
Shaking her head, she decided to set them aside first and have a look at the four classes that had something to do with her current class first. After all, there was a high possibility that she’ll lose her privilege as the sylph queen should she choose the other three classes.
[Luna Sylph Empress]
Blessed by the Luna Celestials, you are now empowered in the night. Gaining the ability to use Luna Magic, you have the power to enchant everyone you deem as an ally with buffs. Every stat is increased by 20% when it is night.
A new channel of energy will be opened up in your body called Celestial Mana.
[Solar Sylph Empress]
Blessed by the Solar Celestials, you are now empowered in the day. Gaining the ability to use Solar Magic, you have the power to heavily buff yourself with the destructive power of the sun. Every stat is increased by 10% when it is day.
A new channel of energy will be opened up in your body called Celestial Mana.
[Celestial Sylph Empress]
Ascending to the realm of Celestials without a blessing, you have no definitive trait. However, as you have no definitive trait, your power scales depending on how many elements you have access to. Certain elements give additional powerups depending what stage of evolution it is in.
A new channel of energy will be opened up in your body called Celestial Mana.
[Mystic Sylph Queen ★]
An enhanced version of your current class that has additional benefits.
‘Hm… The Luna Sylph Empress seems to be a support focused class that focuses on everyone instead of yourself. However, what I want isn’t that since we got Lisandra and Silvia for that. As for the Solar, Sylph Empress, while it does focus on myself, it seems that I’ll lose a lot of the versatility I currently have. Since I don’t exactly want to stay with a single element, Luna and Solar variants are probably off the list for now.’ Shiro thought to herself.
‘As for the Celestial Sylph Empress and the star version of Mystic Sylph queen, they’re more my style so it may just be a choice between the two.’
Shaking her head, she checked out the final three classes.
[Void Ruler]
After reaching a certain mastery of your ability to enter a different plane of existence, you’re given the chance to become its ruler. You will obtain abilities that allow you to use the Void in a more offensive manner. However, in choosing to become a Void Ruler, you lose your privileges as a Sylph Queen.
[Chosen of Athena]
Your battle style has impressed the goddess of war. Deeming you worthy of obtaining power similar to her, you are given a chance to become one of her successors.
Your abilities will now centre around how you can exterminate your opponents with maximum efficiency.
While you do not lose all of your privileges as Sylph Queen, your connection to the race as its ruler is lost.
[Chosen of Aphrodite]
Your beauty has attracted the attention of the goddess of love. Deeming you worthy of obtaining power similar to her, you are given the chance to become one of her successors.
Your abilities will now centre around how you can charm your opponents into submission and make them your loyal subject.
While you do not lose all of your privileges as Sylph Queen, your connection to the race as its ruler is lost.
“Yeesh, I don’t think I’ll need the ‘privilege’ of becoming their chosen.” Shiro raised an eyebrow after seeing the description of the two classes.
First of all, she would prefer not to seduce her enemies since it was not her way of doing things. The only reason as to why she had even done that during the previous fight was to increase their chances of success. Personally, she had hated the experience.
As for the Chosen of Athena, while it was enticing for her, losing the privilege of being the Spirits ruler was somewhat of a no go for her. You could call it sympathy for the race but Shiro wanted to help the race to avoid the fate of becoming batteries like Iziuel.
This was also the reason as to why she didn’t want to be Void Ruler.
“Hmm… so in the end, it’s down to Celestial Sylph Empress and the upgraded Mystic Sylph Queen.” Shiro muttered.
While she did want to choose the upgraded Mystic Sylph Queen, this was her entry to B class/tier 4. If she delayed the upgrade longer, she may be behind in terms of class benefits. Plus, with the rate of her level ups, she’s afraid that she may fail a star upgrade quest due to her levelling speed.
Therefore, she could only choose Celestial Sylph Empress as her next class.
