I Only Need To Attend The Classroom Of The Sage To Level Up! c2

A week has pa.s.sed since I came here. Though there was still much that I didn’t understand, I was still able to learn some things. It appears that the place that I am currently in is a so-called ‘alternate world’.

In this world, all people that reach adulthood gain a job cla.s.s from G.o.d, and there are levels attached to it as well. When you level up, you remember the skill from every job that you possess. The levels are hard to gain, and do not go up when I am conscious and do not train.

Actually my mother….. of Callus is middle aged and is a level 6 magician. I can’t not say as to whether or not this is good.

“Callus-kun.” “Here.”

The moment that the old man took my attendance. I have risen to Ninja level 7. My level rose again.

For reasons I can not fathom, my level raises when I attend the old man’s cram school every day. While I have tried to ask about it, no one seems to understand what I’m asking about. I have no idea why I’m the same level as my mother in only a week’s time.

“Today, I shall talk about total levels.” The old man said in a steady tone. He’s no longer senile, but in his teaching mode.

“Besides the levels of the Job Cla.s.s the two of you have received already, there is also a thing known as the ‘Total Level’. It is not difficult to say this, but the Total Level is the sum of all Job Cla.s.s levels that you may possess.”

“So the Total Level just adds normally?”

“That is so. For example, if one were both Warrior level 5 and Wizard level 5, then their Total Level would be 10.”

“Huh.”

“Then the essentials from here on out, level raising will be dependent on the Total Level.”

“Eh?”

“If the Total Level is 10, then the next level gained would be 11. If one is a Warrior and a Wizard, then becoming a Ninja would be the same level of difficulty.”

This came as a surprise. This is completely the opposite of the system that I was aware of. With the system that I’m aware of, it’s easy to raise levels after changing Jobs, is it the opposite in this world?

“W-Wilf-sama?” My cla.s.smate Claire raised her hand to ask a question.

“If I raise the same occupation too much, will it become difficult to raise after awhile?”

“……..”

“Wilf-sama?”

Again, that old man!

Claire who has just asked you a question is troubled. As if sensing her mood, he reverts to senility, and the cla.s.s goes back to where things had started earlier. This is getting monotonous.

I went over to the church. Entering, I went over to talk to the residing priest.

“Good Day.”

“If it isn’t Callus-kun. What brings you in today?”

“I would like to hear about changing jobs.”

When he heard me say this, the priest furrowed his brow. “Callus, you are taking lessons from Wilf, Correct?”

“Yes.”

“If that’s the case, you should have learned that changing jobs has some negative points. If Jobs are changed unskillfully, then the Total Level increases, and levelling becomes more difficult.” The priest switches into sermon mode. Thing have become serious.

“Some time ago, there was a man in this village with a Total Level of 30. To reach that level is amazing, wouldn’t you think?”

“Sure.” I nodded. I’ve heard through various means that currently the person with the highest level in the village is level 15. I understand that 30 is a very high level.

“That person changed their Job Cla.s.s 29 times and….. wound up with 30 Job Cla.s.ses. While his Total Level was 30, each Job Cla.s.s was at level 1, as I understand it.”

“…… without such half-baked measures, levels are easy to raise, are they not?” I thought about this a little and answered. The priest nodded.

“That’s so. While I won’t say that changing a job cla.s.s is wrong, but you should do it after waiting awhile and doing some groundwork and research, or everything would be half-done.”

“But–”

“Callus-kun.”

“……I understand.”

I left the church because saying anything further would be useless.

　☆　　☆　　☆

“Wilf-Sama?”

“Good gracious, who are you again?”

I went back to the old man’s house. It appears that he’s back in senility mode. “It’s Callus. I wanted to ask about changing Job Cla.s.s.”

“A way there is, to change jobs.”

In an instant, his discipline had returned. I feel like I’ve learned how to handle the old man somehow.

“The method of changing one’s Job Cla.s.s is quite simple. For every cla.s.s, there is an item that is necessary for changing to a new Job Cla.s.s, and once used, one rises to level 1 in the new Job Cla.s.s.”

“It’s good with that alone?”

“That is true. In fact, with the right conditions, one can change jobs to an even stronger cla.s.s that would normally be difficult to gain.”

“So if I reach a point where it’s too difficult to raise my level in my current Job Cla.s.s, I can change jobs and level that up more easily?” Compared to the story I heard from the priest earlier, I was able to immediately understand this time.

“That is the way things are. But this is a problem that can be solved with money.”

It is also like that. If I were to acquire a large sum of money and purchase an item beforehand is something of a pipe dream. So then, if I had gotten a terrible job from the G.o.d in my coming of age ceremony, then I would be disheartened. In that way, a level 1 Job Cla.s.s is a loss.

“So how does one obtain an item to change one’s cla.s.s?”

“Yes that’s right. I’m speaking my mind here.”

“Then, you should take this.”

I received an item that the old man had taken out. I’m not quite sure what it is. …….. Is it some sort of scale?

“So I can change my job with this? By the way, what sort of job is it?”

“Wilf-sama?”

“Grandmother, I would like to purchase some rice.”

“Not this again! You said that yesterday, old man!”

　　　☆　　　☆　　　☆

The next day, it was time for cram school.

“Claire-kun.”

“Here.”

“Callus-kun.”

“Present.”

I answered while holding the scale. The scale disappeared from my grasp. I had gained the job Dragon level 1. The words floating in my mind had changed.

Dragon? Is dragon also a Job Cla.s.s? I looked at the old man, and he had faded back into senility. He begins to shake like jelly. Sage……dragon….. Could it be….. to receive that scale was an extraordinary thing, don’t you think?
