Class revelation
Elydria didn't say anything to them and entered the building. They followed inside.
There was a single small pillar inside the building. It was pure white in color and was different from the main pillar because instead of a circular shape, it was square-shaped. It was about as tall as Takuya, who was 5 feet 11 inches tall. Yukina was 5.9 tall.
"All you have to do is put your hand on that pillar. It will show your information, including your Name, Class, and Affinities. Don't worry; your other stats will be hidden. This will be enough for us to register you."
"Fine, I will go first." It looked like Aoi had become her cheerful self again.
She went closer to the pillar and put her hand on it.
A moment later, a blue screen, just like their system panel, formed on the top of the pillar.
---
Name: Kuge Aoi
Class: Eclipsing Phantom
Grade: SS
Affinities: Shadow (100%), Light (31%), Darkness (84%), Illusion (76%), Phantom (94%), Death (10%)
...
"Oh my... As expected from someone with a strong soul."
Elydria was really surprised. She knew that they had strong souls, but getting a good class that was effective in battle was also important.
She was expecting at least three battle oriented S-grade classes from them. That would have already been good enough.
But they had already gotten an SS-grade class at the start, and it was also battle-oriented. She had little hope for the appearance of classes above S grade, but it looked like these people were truly exceptional.
"Damn, Aoi, it's totally an assassin class. How about you trade with me?"
Daiki got envious when he saw that because the class he got wasn't to his liking.
"Dream on. You better behave from now on, or I will stab a dagger in your buttocks, and you won't even know who did it."
"I doubt that. Wait till you see my class first. Then we'll see if you have what it takes to pierce me."
Daiki came to the pillar and put his hands on it.
---
Name: Kuge Daiki
Class: Juggernaut
Grade: SS
Affinities: Earth (100%), Metal (97%), Gravity (76%), Fire (45%), Lightning (36%)
....
Elydria's eyes widened when she saw one more SS-grade class. This was totally unexpected for her. It looked like the goddess had really done everything she could this time.
Not to mention, this class was also a warrior class.
She sighed in big relief. It looked like they could finally start pushing demons back and reclaiming some territory.
Even if the others didn't get any good classes, they would still have a strong team. After all, they still had Lyrian.
"Damn you, unkillable roach. No wonder you're boasting about it."
Aoi cursed when she saw his class.
"Hehe, come on, stab me."
"Don't worry, I will definitely do it."
"You two stop now. Don't embarrass ourselves in front of people from another world," Tenka spoke and moved toward the pillar.
"I don't have a class as good as you guys, but it's still okay, I guess."
He put his hands on the pillar.
---
Name: Tenka Haruto
Class: Dawnbringer
Grade: S
Affinities: Holy Water (98%), Holy Light (60%), Light (81%), Life (15%)
.....
Elydria sighed in amazement when she saw one more good class. Although it wasn't a battle-related class, priests were a very important part of adventurer teams.
Not to mention, it had the holy element, which was the nemesis of demons.
"Haruto, this class really suits you."
Daiki couldn't help but exclaim. After that, he looked towards Takuya, as he didn't have the guts to ask Yukina to go. Getting ignored would be embarrassing, after all.
"Do I need to give you an invitation, you dead fish?"
Takuya shook his head and moved.
The others were also dying to know what class he had gotten.
Elydria was also eager but for different reasons. She wanted to know which class they would get because their uniqueness , but she had no hopes of it being a high class because she didn't know they had the strongest souls.
The two other priestesses were also present and were noting their information down for registration.
He finally reached the pillar and put his hand on it.
---
Name: Kagerou Takuya
Class: Celestial Saintblade
Grade: SSS+
Affinities: Holy Fire (100%), Holy Light (100%), Annihilation (100%), Star (100%), Space (100%), Time (100%), Gravity (100%)
...
"Holy fuck!" Daiki's jaw dropped to the ground.
He spoke so loudly that, in the pin-drop silence, it even echoed twice.
The priestesses who were noting the information even forgot to take notes.
Elydria's eyes widened. She wasn't able to believe what she was seeing on the screen. Her thoughts were in a mess right now.
How could there be a class above SSS grade? Was that even possible?
She trembled internally. If this information was really true, she didn't even want to imagine what kind of changes it would bring.
She came back to herself and looked up. She wanted to verify it directly with the goddess.
She closed her eyes and started praying. It didn't take long as a stream of light particles left the main pillar and entered her mind.
"It's true. Take care of them. Also, let Takuya stay inside the Church. Their safety is your responsibility until they reach at least level 50."
Elydria was thrilled at the revelation. This meant the information she was seeing was real. The goddess had also said their—she understood her meaning clearly.
She looked towards Yukina. After all, they both had the same class.
She glanced at the priestesses who were noting the information. One was copying it into a notebook while the other was creating adventurer cards for them.
They were still in a stunned state and didn't know what to do right now.
Elydria flicked their foreheads and said, "Snap out of it and note it down. Also, hide these records. Unless I say otherwise, no one can see them."
"High Priestess, is it real?"
Elydria looked at them and spoke solemnly.
"I know it's hard to believe, but I just confirmed with the goddess, and she said, Yes, it is the truth. So you better keep it secret. This news should never get out of the Church."
Although they were talking, Takuya and the others could still hear them.
Daiki was still enviously looking at Takuya's stats and couldn't stop himself from speaking.
"How can a boring dead fish like you get the most OP class? It's not fair at all."
Takuya removed his hand and went back without saying much. He didn't care how envious the others were of his class. He was happier about the soulbound status he had received.
No doubt, he was happy to be in this world, as it was his wish. Getting one of the top classes was also a celebratory moment for him, but what made him the happiest was that she was with him in this world.
He couldn't help but imagine what would have happened if he had come to this world without her. Would he have been happy? No. He would have always missed her, and this world would have become just like his dream city, Tokyo.
When he returned to his original position, Yukina also moved. Although everyone already knew her class, they still wanted to see it to verify it, so they all looked towards the screen.
---
Name: Aisawa Yukina
Class: Celestial Saintblade
Grade: SSS+
Affinities: Holy Fire (100%), Holy Light (100%), Annihilation (100%), Star (100%), Space (100%), Time (100%), Gravity (100%)
...
As expected, they all sucked in a cold breath.
Elydria was already over the moon with happiness. Now, they had two classes even above SSS grade, one SSS-grade class, two SS-grade classes, and one S-grade. They also had some other S-grade classes in the Adventurer's Guild. It looked like bright days for humanity had finally come.
She looked at them and spoke.
"Everyone, we are done with the registration, but I have decided not to give two of you an adventurer card, as the results were totally beyond my expectations.
Adventurer cards are required for you to accept missions from the Adventurer's Guild. Your adventurer card is linked to you, so when you level up, your level will be automatically updated on the card.
Cards only show the name and class of the adventurer along with their level.
Cards are given according to your class too. B-grade will get a Bronze card, A-grade will receive a Silver card, S-grade will receive a Gold card, SS-grade will receive a Platinum card, and SSS-grade will receive an Amethyst card.
These cards also determine your status in the Kingdom. I won't explain much, but you will understand eventually.
So, in short, these cards become your identity, and they are even recognized in establishments under the rule of the royal family because everyone wants to make connections with strong people.
Mr. Kuge Daiki—"
"Only Daiki will do. Kuge is my family name, just like a caste. People who are unfamiliar with me use Mr. Kuge, while those who are familiar call me Daiki. That's how we address each other in our world, at least in our country."
"Hm, that's interesting. So, it means you and Miss Kuge are family?" she asked with a smile.
"Yes, she is my sister," he sighed.
"So, Mr. Kuge, Mr. Tenka, and Miss Kuge, your cards are ready. But Mr. Kagerou and Miss Aisawa, we don't have anything suitable for you right now.
I could have given you an SSS-grade card, but I decided against it because kids are more prone to mistakes. That's why I haven't even given Lyriana her card.
No kingdom knows her real class and grade. Only you guys and the Church are aware. Others know she has a top-level class, but their assumptions are limited to SS grade, similar to the third princess of the empire, who has awakened the only SS-grade class in the entire royal family in this generation."
