After leaving Asharia, s.h.i.+ro didn't have too many worries. All of Asharia's problems could be handled by Nan Tian since she had prepared all the necessary tools before Rokarn's fight.
She could somewhat confidently leave on her own journey without worrying. Of course, if something major did happen, she would not hesitate to unseal her destruction divinity and teleport back. While it may not be beneficial to preform surgery on herself multiple times, it was still better than ignoring an emergency.
While she did want to hang out with Madison after being away for a while, time didn't allow it. With the second half coming in less than a week, she couldn't slack on her preparations.
After she had stepped through the teleporter, s.h.i.+ro found herself in London. Or rather, what's left of London.
Seeing all of the broken buildings, shattered dungeons and monsters that roamed around, s.h.i.+ro stretched her body and pulled out the tome that Hemera had given her.
"Let's see, there isn't a hidden cla.s.s option for the starting cla.s.s but there is one during the first cla.s.s up. The easiest standard healer cla.s.s that I can obtain is Healer and Medic. A Healer primarily focuses on stimulating their vitality to heal while Medic actively heals the wounds through understanding and speeding up the process. With my skill set, Medic is probably better than healer since it's more compatible with my Nan.o.bots. Once I fuse the two together, having Medic as my foundation is probably better." s.h.i.+ro muttered.
While reading the tome, she sensed a monster creeping up from behind her but she ignored it. Since she had separated her destructive divinity from her code, she was akin to a defenceless civilian to their senses. She's used to suppressing her mana so they couldn't even sense a single drop while her physical prowess was stupidly strong despite what she looked like.
Waiting for the monster to get close enough, s.h.i.+ro closed her book just as it pounced for an attack.
*KRRRRR!!!
Turning her head, she used her mana to amplify the wind that was sent out due to her closing the book. The result was a wind blender that shredded the monster and sent its flesh and blood scattering through the wind behind her.
s"Seems like cutting out my destructive divinity also disabled my pa.s.sive. Monster s aren't scared sh*tless of me now." s.h.i.+ro said as she hopped onto the rails of the bridge that she was on.
Narrowing her eyes into the distance, s.h.i.+ro tried to see if she could sense the Awakening Shrine.
While monsters may be born with a cla.s.s, the Awakening Shrine was a short cut for people to get their first cla.s.s.
Depending on the requirements that have been met, you can freely choose your cla.s.s from the list given to you. All she had to do was to find this Shrine and select Medic as the cla.s.s.
"I came to London since this city is in a better state compared to the other major cities. The Shrine should be usable." s.h.i.+ro muttered while pulling out her phone. Searching up where the Shrine was on the map, she started to make her way over.
On her way there, plenty of monsters tried to ambush her but they were dealt with quite easily. Level 500 monsters simply could not deal with the physical strength of s.h.i.+ro. Plus, her strength stat was abnormally high for a mage. A flick of the finger was enough to obliterate them to the next generation.
Arriving at the location on the map, s.h.i.+ro looked up from her phone and saw the collapsed path leading deep underground.
"Well considering that the Shrine should be directly below me, this should be enough."
Activating Rift Strider EX, s.h.i.+ro jumped into the Rift and made her way down. Since this was skill she received from Yin, it wasn't disabled when she separated her divinity.
Jumping through the void, s.h.i.+ro smiled when she spotted the Shrine beneath her.
"Seems like it's intact. I've already met the requirements for Medic so this should be pretty easy."
Leaving the rift, s.h.i.+ro landed besides the Shrine. However, just as she was about to activate it, she noticed that there signs of people living here for a while. Raising her eyebrows, she didn't think that there were still people taking shelter so close to the heart of the city, especially considering the fact that it's more dangerous here.
'Hmm, maybe I'll look for them after I get my cla.s.s.'
Shaking her head, s.h.i.+ro channelled her mana into the Shrine. Suddenly, the system interface flickered and cla.s.s options appeared in front of her.
Reading through the list, s.h.i.+ro chuckled seeing that most of the recommendations were combat ones. Scrolling past them, she eventually found Medic at the bottom.
But before she tapped the option, she noticed a rather interesting cla.s.s below that.
[Nanomancer]
Seeing as how her own cla.s.s was in the starting options, s.h.i.+ro guessed that anyone who fulfilled the requirement could get the cla.s.s. Of course, their power can't be compared to her since she was the First Born of Destruction but they should be able to reach her same peak in Aria. The Nanomancer cla.s.s itself was powerful if you had the right tool.
Thinking about it for a moment, s.h.i.+ro hesitated.
Nan.o.bots inherently had the power of creation considering the fact that you can make anything as long as you have a blueprint.
However, while it did indeed have the power of creation, it was overshadowed by the destructive part of nanotech. Even if she could cultivate the power of creation with Nanotech, it could easily be overshadowed by the destructive nature.
'Choosing this might make it hard to balance the two divinities together in the future.'
Thinking to herself for a moment, s.h.i.+ro eventually settled on choosing Medic. She can always infuse some nanotech into her cla.s.s in the future. Plus, with some of the hidden cla.s.ses she can obtain by stepping on this path, it didn't make sense to limit herself to Nanomancer. She was already the G.o.ddess of Nanotech, no point repeating the same cla.s.s twice.
[Cla.s.s obtained: Medic.]
Name: s.h.i.+ro
Race: Spirit G.o.d
Level: 1
Cla.s.s: Medic
Skills: Cure, Dispel, Purify
/p>
Now that she had gained the cla.s.s, Medic, she 'gained' three new skills. Technically, even without the system telling her about these skills, she could already simulate their effects with her current skill set. If anything, s.h.i.+ro guessed that it was pretty much just formality.
Rubbing her chin, s.h.i.+ro glanced at her left arm and summoned Silvanis. Stabbing herself in the arm, she dismissed Silvanis and cast Cure.
Suddenly, a tier 1 magic circle appeared on her palm. Despite the fact that it was only tier 1, the mana being radiated from the magic circle was comparable to tier 6!
'Despite my shallow understanding, I can still push a tier 1 spell to have the same effects as a tier 6. I suppose I can say that I have the strongest level 1 healing spell.' s.h.i.+ro thought with a small chuckle.
Glancing up at the ceiling, she opened a portal to the Rift and jumped out of the underground room.
###
While s.h.i.+ro was obtaining her second cla.s.s, a hooded figure was wandering through the streets of a destroyed city.
"Urg…" Groaning softly, the hooded figure clutched her head with a pained expression.
"Sis… Where are you… Where are we…" She muttered.
Memories flashed through her mind. She remembered a surgery with her on the bed. Her thoughts were muddled, mixed with the images of slaughter which she commenced with her own two hands.
Gritting her teeth, the figure collapsed on the floor as tear streamed down her cheeks.
"Sis I'm scared…" She whispered as pain shot through her body.
Her arm started to transform as she panicked and tried to control it to no avail.
Watching parts of her body transform to suit combat, the woman could feel her heartbeat quicken as fear was evident in her eyes.
'Big sis Niphim… Where are you.' She thought to herself as violent urges surged forth. Gritting her teeth, she looked around her for any living creature that she could get her claws on.
Spotting a pair of monsters in the distance, she immediately crouched down on all fours and dashed towards them.
Black aura erupted from her hands as tier 6 magic circles were activated. Before she could even say anything, the woman slammed her hand down and activated the spell.
sThe flesh on her arms started to s.h.i.+ft once more, digging into the ground beneath her as she could only close her eyes and avert her gaze.
Hearing the sound of crunching, she could tell that her arm must have transformed into a pair of jaws and started to eat the monsters as her stomach started to become full. Feeling disgusted, she felt the substance travel up her throat.
/p>
Throwing up, she could see that it was the flesh of the monster.
Trying her best to hold back her tears, she tried to transform her arm back to normal so that she could continue her journey. She just wanted to find her sister again.
