Leon's Odyssey

The Night of Discovery 4

The Night of Discovery 4

Sep 10, 2023

Leon leaned back on his bed, hands folded behind his head, and stared at the ceiling. "It's not just the strength," he continued, his voice tinged with contemplation. "I can jump like a gazelle and run like the wind. No way it's normal. So this is what it feels like to be x5 better than a normal person."

Running a hand through his hair, he sighed. "This is way greatr than i imagined."

His room was his sanctuary, a place to ponder this bewildering transformation in solitude. He reached for a notepad and pen on his desk, determined to organize his thoughts. "Right then, let's break it down. Super strength, agility like a ninja, and speed that's faster than... I dunno, Usain Bolt on caffeine. I Could say i am no longer a normal human, not even a human anymore as my heart is different a well, i've got the Draconix Heart."

A soft chuckle escaped him at that thought, a mixture of excitement and trepidation coursed through him. "Time to embrace the unknown, I s'pose."


Leon decided it was time to freshen up after a night of testing his newfound abilities. He stripped off his clothes and stepped into the shower, letting the warm water wash away the sweat and grime of his late-night adventures. As he stood beneath the soothing spray, his thoughts turned back to the status screen he had discovered.

"Status," he muttered, and the familiar interface appeared before him, glowing in the misty bathroom.

He focused on the first part:

Name: Leon Blackwood
Level: 1
Race: Human
Class: None
State: Unawakened
Title: Legacy's Ender

"Nothing's changed on here," he mused to himself, the warm water cascading over his body. "Name's still mine, level still 1. Now, I'm at level 1, but imagine how much stronger I'll be at level 2, 3, or even 10. I remember back then; the strongest were level 50. Something to look forward to. Thinking about it makes me happy."

He continued, "Now, the class... There are five major classes. The Warrior, also known as the attack class, excels in up-close combat. They're skilled with melee weapons like swords and axes, and they're known for their physical strength and fearlessness on the battlefield. Warriors charge headfirst into fights, taking on multiple foes with sheer power and determination. Their color code is normally red."

Leon's thoughts flowed like the water around him, "Then we have the Ranger, also known as the range class. Rangers, the experts of ranged combat, prefer attacking from a distance. They master various ranged weapons like bows, crossbows, or even magical projectiles. Rangers are known for their precision and agility, making them deadly marksmen. They specialize in taking down enemies from afar, using tactics and accuracy to hit their targets with lethal precision. Their color code is purple."

"Next up, the Guardian," he said, reciting his knowledge. "Also known as the defense class, Guardians, the protectors of their allies, are the backbone of any team. Armed with sturdy shields, heavy armor, and unwavering determination, they excel at defending their comrades from harm. Guardians are known for their resilience and the ability to draw the enemy's attention, serving as a living bulwark. They are the ultimate defenders, ensuring that their team remains safe while they stand strong against the enemy onslaught. Their color code is blue."

Leon chuckled, "And then there's the Sage, also known as the healer class. Sages are the life-givers of any group, wielding powerful restorative magic. They mend wounds, cure ailments, and offer a vital lifeline to their companions. With their deep understanding of the mystical arts, Sages bring harmony and vitality to the battlefield, ensuring that their allies stay in the fight. They are the guardians of well-being, keeping their team hale and hearty amidst adversity. Their color code is green."

He paused briefly, his fingers tracing the droplets running down his arm, "The Utility Class, also known as the 'Extras.' Utility specialists are the unsung heroes of any team. They bring a diverse range of skills and tools to the table, providing crucial support in various situations. These versatile individuals often excel in exploration, reconnaissance, and resource management. With their adaptability and resourcefulness, they bridge gaps in a group's capabilities, making them indispensable in any quest or challenge. While not specializing in combat, Utility Class members prove that intelligence and creativity can be mightier than a sword. Their color code was silver."

"In the future," he added, "it was all a mess as most people just formed random parties and they used to struggle to defeat a dungeon. So color codes were put in place to help form balanced teams and raiding parties. In the future, many people used to consider the Sage class the weakest, but when they started raiding higher levels, they quickly realized how important the Sage class was."

"But that's that," he continued, "and from what I hear, there are subclasses among the four major classes."

Leon moved on to the next section of the status screen, "Now, for 'State,' it says 'Unawakened.' I presume that'll change to 'Awakened' when the first cataclysm hits, when the first dungeon break happens. Something to look forward to."

"And now, the title," he said, selecting it. A description appeared:

Title: Legacy's Ender - A title forged in the crucible of fate for those who have defied the lineage of ancient beings. By extinguishing the legacy of both the formidable dragon and resplendent phoenix, bearers of this prestigious title are anointed with three enigmatic Growth Mystic Skills, empowering them to reach heights unattainable by others. Additionally, the bearer's attribute points are mysteriously doubled for every attribute point earned.

Leon couldn't believe it to the point that he slipped and fell in the shower. He sat on the stone slab, water droplets trickling down his face. "No way," he exclaimed, "it makes sense now. I was wondering why I have three mystic skills, and the fact that they are growth skills means it's even better. Plus, the x2 multiplier for all earned attribute points... I really wasn't expecting that."

"So," he mused, "the rumors were true; some titles do give you extra bonuses. This is an interesting development for sure."

Leon continued to explore his status screen:

Attributes:

Strength: 5.00
Agility: 5.00
Intelligence: 10.00
Luck: 3.00
Constitution: 5.00
Unused Attribute Points: 0




Water droplets danced around him as he thought aloud.

"According to the information I have from the future and from what I know," Leon began, his voice echoing in the bathroom, "you get your main class when you're level 10. When you reach level 10, your main class is decided automatically. It's based on the skills you have from awakening and your natural talents, which are your attributes, like your Strength, your Agility, your Constitution, or your Intelligence. Your class becomes your main focus as you then try to work your attributes to have a subclass under the respective class."

He tilted his head back, letting the water wash over his face. "Since it's hard to get attribute points from what I heard, people don't normally focus on other attributes outside their class as it will be a waste. And once you use an attribute, you can't get them back. So, people are very strategic when it comes to it and only use them for their own class."

Leon leaned against the shower wall, his fingers tapping thoughtfully. "Subclasses are also automatically given based on the skills you acquire after you've been assigned your main class. When you use your skills often and gain experience, you might unlock a subclass that complements your main class. Normally, at level 20 to 25, you can unlock your subclasses. It's all about how you develop your abilities in the awakening world."

He then delved into specifics, "For example, for Warrior Sub-Classes (For Attack Class Only):"
