Shield Bearer

Kira was surprise by a notification, thinks that it was another world announcement regarding some players achievement. But he was slacked-jaw by what he reads.

[Special announcement: The server will be closing in 5 minutes. All players are advice to log out]

This is what the the prungs of notifications said. Almost all the player started complaining when they read this announcement. He don't know what happened but he still comply and log out of the game.

After exiting the capsule he check the time. It was 5 minutes before 8 in the evening, saturday. He also saw Lynch exit his own capsule. They look at one another, "Do you know what happened?" both of them asked at the same time.

"I don't really know, I've just finish my quest when the notification appeared." Kira stated.

"Me neither, but it's a good thing that you're finally done with that quest of yours. You been doing that for almost a week, you're being left behind at levels. Immediately start leveling uo when the server reopens, catch up." Lynch berated him. He knows the logic behind the training of his friend did, but it was just time consuming. It was easier to level up and upgrade your stats, you can even used items that gives bonus stat points. It was more practical to hunt monster than train for hours just for a single stat points. But his friend was really stubborn, he just won't quit if he ever decides to do something.

"I'm already level 10 you know. I've even change my class" Lynch added feeling proud of himself.

"Well, are you hungry? Let's eat dinner first cause I'm hungry." Kira said without hearing what his friend said. He started walking out of the room. "Okay, let's eat first, just cook whatever there is on the fridge." Lynch answered.

When Kira opens the fridge, there was nothing inside, just some box of milk that were almost empty, some are just carton and don't even have anymore. He couldn't even find some eggs or vegetables to cook some simpke dishes.

Then he remember that it's been a month since he move in here. And since then, he didn't go to the grocery caus everytime he open the fridge it always seems full.

"Let's just eat outside tonight, we don't have anything to cook. I'll go to the grocery tomorrow." Kira suggested.

"Okay, I know a restaurant with delicious foods. I've been craving some meat." Lynch said as he run off to his room to change.

========================

"Wooh, that was a fine meal. I think I've eaten too much, I can't move properly." Lynch shouted then started complaing.

"Who told you to order that many? I was all you're doing." Kira sarcastically commented.

"Don't deny that you enjoy it too, you've eaten more than I do. I can't imagine where all the food that you consume been stored with that small body of yours." Lynch laugh.

They were walking the street because they decided to walk home. As they were walking, Kira suddenly stop.

"What's wrong?" Lynch asked when he notice that Kira was just staring at an alleyway. Kira then started walking to the alleyway, Lynch just follow his friend.

He didn't know what happend to his friend or where his even going. They enter different streets and alleyways, at first kira was just walking but as he takes different turn his phase becomes faster and faster until he was running.

They've been running for 15 minutes until Kira stops at a flight of stairs. He started ascending, running to the top.

"Hey, wait for me. What's gotten into you, you just started running without saying any word." Lynch shouted to his friend. He follow kira until he reaches the top. There he notice Kira just blankly staring at what looks to be an abbandon shrine.

Kira started walking then he pray infront of the shrine. Lynch didn't disturb his friend, he wants to know where this is, but he waited for his friend to finish whatever his doing.

"Sorry if you have to follow me to this abandoned place." Kira said as he turn around to his friend.

"Where is this? What happened to you? You started running and didn't even wait for me?" Lynch berated his friend but his not really angry.

"This is a shrine my mother used to bring me when I was just a kid." Kira said as he walk around and looking everywhere. "When we pass that alleyway early on, it just came to me. The memories of this place. This place used to be clean and many others visited here, but now it was abandoned. But it was good that this place was still standing, just a little cleaning and this place will be good as new" Kira smiled.

Looking at his friends smile, Lynch know the pains that hides behind that mask. He didn't know what to say to his friend.

"Let's go, it's late already." Kira said as he started walking down the shrine. Lynch just follow beside his friend.

"Oh, by the way, what class did you change to?" Kira asked as he remember that Lynch was already level 10.

"Yes, right, I forgot about that. I've manage to change into a hidden class" Feeling proud about his achievement.

"Well tell me, what it is?" Kira urge his friend.

"It was [Shield Bearer], it was a hidden class that I get when I've finish a chain quest given by the village head. It was a super tanky class, my main weapon is a shield. I can't equip any other weapon except shields." Lynch started explaining his class. It has different control and protection abilities, he receive.

Shield bearer has 3 active and 2 passive skills given when you change into this class.

Active

[Shield bash: Bash the enemy using a shield. Deals 15% of users P. Def as damage and stuns the enemy for 2 second if successful. MP:15 Cooldown: 30 sec.]

[Agression shout: increases aggro 20 feet around the user for 5 seconds. MP: 20 Cooldown: 60 sec.]

[Blessing shield: Give the user or ally a shield that absorb 100 points of damage. MP: 20 Cooldown: 60 sec.]

Passive

[Shield mastery: increase defence by .5%]

[Defence is Offence: 5% of users defence is converted to damage.]

All this skill is just beginner tier according to Lynch. "I dont have high damage for now so all i can to was rely on my party to level up. But at the late game, I think I can be a monster." added Lynch with a smug look on his face.

"They said that there are many classes available in the game. And the hidden classes are just more rare, but others said that even hidden classes have distinction on there power level, they have different tiers. I don't know if it was real or not but if it were I'm sure my class was at the top of it." Lynch laugh.

"Good for you, your class really suit you. With your righteous personality and that habit of yours of always helping people, I think you can bring out thet best potential of your class." Kira sincerely said.

Lynch was suddenly embarrassed when he heard his friend. He know that other are always said that his good at people, but he can't help it. When he sees someone struggle or needing help, his body just move on it's own to help. And kira always said that he should manage that habit of his, cause one day it will cause him harm.

When they arrive home, Lynch's phone started ringing and he enter his room to answer it. Kira didn't mind that and decided to take a bath.

When he was on his room, he opens the forum to see what that annoucement is about.
