Common Job Trigger! Genius!
Chapter 4 Triggering a Common Job! "Genius"! Nfirea turned to look at the approaching little old lady, a look of embarrassment on his face: "Grandmother."
"This isn't a place for you to be kind-hearted."
"Buying and collecting medicinal herbs during the 'Royal Tournament' is what you should be doing."
Lizzie put her hands behind her back, her wrinkled cheeks showing impatience, and spoke with a slightly angry tone.
"Yes, Grandmother."
Nfirea scratched his short golden hair and said softly.
Hearing the brief conversation between the two, Tang Zheng finally understood why this pair of grandparents, who should have been in the border city of E-Rantel, had appeared in the Royal Capital.
The thought flashed through his mind.
Tang Zheng tried his best to maintain a calm expression.
Don't underestimate Nfirea's grandmother, Lizzie, who looks like an unremarkable little old lady, and doesn't even have much presence in the anime.
But this woman is the most famous Apothecary in E-Rantel, and a genuine third-tier magic caster.
In terms of levels, she should be above level 15, which is considered a powerful figure among humans.
At least, the current Tang Zheng definitely couldn't afford to offend her.
Lizzie's gaze fell on Tang Zheng, first looking at the short sword hanging on his waist, then glancing at Tang Zheng's slightly muscular arms.
"Let's go, Nfirea." Lizzie expressionlessly withdrew her gaze, turned and left with her hands behind her back.
"Okay, Grandmother."
Nfirea quickly agreed, turned and took a step towards the street, then hesitated, turned back again, and looked at Tang Zheng: "You must be here to see Gazef and Brain's fight, right? I heard the arena seats are very expensive."
"Um, take this water skin first, it's easy to choke if you eat rye bread without soaking it in water."
As Nfirea spoke, he untied a water skin from his waist and handed it to Tang Zheng.
This guy... is a bit annoying. Tang Zheng's cheek twitched. If he didn't really understand Nfirea's personality, such sudden kindness from a stranger could easily raise suspicion.
What's more.
Having grown up as an orphan, Tang Zheng had never really liked this kind of inexplicable kindness.
"No..."
Tang Zheng was just about to refuse when Nfirea had already forced the water skin into Tang Zheng's hand.
A sudden action!
Caused Tang Zheng's expression to change slightly.
Not because of Nfirea's act of forcing the water skin on him, but because the moment they made contact, the attribute panel suddenly displayed information.
『Buzz——』
『Contact with special dual-basic job holder - Alchemist (Genius), Apothecary (Genius), triggering common job acquisition conditions.』
『Acquire common job "Genius", take the job?』
『Attention! This job is a common job and does not provide attribute bonuses.』
Tang Zheng saw the information displayed on the panel, and his arm couldn't help but tremble.
In the YGGDRASIL game, combat jobs were divided into basic jobs, intermediate jobs, advanced/special jobs, and non-combat common jobs.
These could also be understood as production jobs! Such as Apothecary, Alchemist, blacksmith, farmer, merchant, etc., which didn't directly help in combat and belonged to support personnel jobs.
But in this other world.
Common jobs weren't just limited to production jobs, they also included many jobs that didn't exist in the game at all, such as: slave, maid, noble, prince, king, Princess, etc.
These common jobs were even worse than production jobs. "Prince" and "Noble" were innate, while "Slave" was automatically acquired later in the process.
This was also the fundamental difference between people of this other world and players.
Players could actively choose whether to take a job, while people of this other world would automatically acquire relevant jobs due to their different life experiences, even if they didn't want to.
"Take the job!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Tang Zheng silently chanted in his heart.
Tang Zheng, who had been agonizing over whether to choose a warrior base class or a spellcaster base class, unhesitatingly chose a common class that offered no help whatsoever in combat.
This showed just how excited Tang Zheng was at this moment!
Common classes indeed don't directly help in increasing strength, but that doesn't mean that all these common classes, which don't even exist in the game, are trash in this other world.
'Job Change Successful - Genius: 1Lv'
'Genius (Common): This class can replace any base class and common class, and can be transformed into the required class according to needs.'
'Note: Due to its special nature, leveling up this class will not increase base stats, and it does not come with class characteristics after changing classes.'
Tang Zheng looked at the displayed information, suppressing the excitement in his heart.
"Are you alright?"
Nfirea looked at Tang Zheng, who was tightly gripping his hand and whose emotions had suddenly changed, and asked with some doubt and concern.
"Sorry, thank you." Hearing the question, Tang Zheng regained his senses, quickly released his hand, took the water bag, and said earnestly.
This thank you was genuine! "It's nothing."
Nfirea didn't notice anything, nodded to Tang Zheng, and quickly turned to leave.
Watching Nfirea's departing figure, Tang Zheng took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with excitement.
He didn't expect that he could unexpectedly obtain this super rare common class! With the 'Genius' class, Tang Zheng no longer needed to worry about choosing a base class, and he had one less big problem in terms of class building.
Most importantly, the class's fault tolerance rate was greatly increased! As far as Tang Zheng knew, besides him, there was one other person in this world who possessed the 'Genius' class, and that was Lana, the Golden Princess of the Re-Estize Kingdom.
Also known as the "Princess of Ruin."
Her 'Princess (Common)' class was transformed from 'Genius (Common)'.
This super rare and uncommon common class was actually somewhat wasted in the hands of the Golden Princess, or rather, in the hands of humans in this other world.
Only in the hands of players could the true power of this class be unleashed.
At this moment, Tang Zheng suddenly felt a sense of relief, as if a taut string had been loosened.
The somewhat desperate emotions he had been feeling all along faded a lot. Although he had only obtained a common class, Tang Zheng suddenly felt less lost about the future.
"I've also gained some important information."
Tang Zheng's eyes lit up.
Contacting Nfirea actually triggered the job change condition for a common class, which was somewhat unexpected for Tang Zheng.
Adding to the fact that touching weapons could also trigger a class, he had already learned two important job change information about the innate ability 'Player'.
However!
Judging from the fact that he only obtained a common class and not the Alchemist or Apothecary class, normal contact with others should not trigger a job change.
"Is it entirely because Nfirea has the Alchemist (Genius) and Apothecary (Genius) classes, this double 'Genius' characteristic, that it accidentally triggered the common class 'Genius'?"
Tang Zheng thought thoughtfully.
