[Available Job Options]
[Infernal Flare Sorcerer]
[Shadowmancer]
[Necrotic Sorcerer]
…
I glanced at the three new Jobs available, they seemed interesting.
Infernal Flare Sorcerer would most likely enhance my ability to use fire to an even higher level, I would assume. Perhaps something that can enhance my Infernal Flare, although that comes from my Staff, but I guess it has become more or less part of me too.
Shadowmancer? Most likely related to the new Shadow Bending Skill, although that one was quite quick, I just got the skill like a minute ago… I guess this one enhances my ability to use shadows even more. Although I doubt it will be anything as insane as some figures of fiction…
And then there is Necrotic Sorcerer… this one is most likely derived from Phantom Sorcerer, my current Job. Does this mean that I might acquire the Necromancer Job afterward? Well, you never know… but it might seem to be the case, or so I hope.
Well, whatever, I will pick this one, of course. After all, this is kind of what I wanted, right?
If I could become a Necromancer, a Tamer, and a Summoner, wouldn't I be unstoppable by holding an overpowered army of Undead, Summons, and Tamed Monsters all packed up together conquering entire worlds as I clear the entire Ragnar?k?
Well, it might not be as easy as I imagine… but it could be great if I could.
Ding!
[Do you desire to exchange 40.000 Gold and 6.000 Hero Feathers to change Jobs into the [Necrotic Sorcerer] Job?]
I quickly accept the request as my gold goes away alongside the Hero Feathers, these resources have become rather important to upgrade my power level, and they are often dropped by any monster. I can also use them to open the level cap of my Summon, and even increase their stars.
Ding!
[You exchanged 40.000 Gold and 6.000 Hero Feathers!]
[You changed Job to [Necrotic Sorcerer]!]
[All your stats have increased!]
[You learned the [Necromancy (B)] and [Death Domination (B)] Skills!]
[The [Cursed Vampiric Eyes of Paralysis (C)], [Talented Curse Caster (C)], [Greater Exorcising (C)], and [Dual Holy Light Beam (C)] Skills have awakened into the [Accursed Vampiric Eyes of Fearful Paralysis (B)], [Great Curse Caster (B)], [Divine Exorcising (B)], and [Triple Holy Light Beam (B)] Skills!]
Only a few Skills increased in Grade, I suppose it won't be all of them always, after reaching higher Grades, they might become harder to increase in Grade, I suppose… But that's fine, as long as I can keep accumulating more Skills, I could easily replace them around to fit my necessities, after all, we can't get too conceited with a single skill.
I decided to check the new Skills, which brought just what I thought they could do…
…
[Necromancy (B)]
Grants the user, the ability to control the souls of the dead to an extent and insert them into inanimate objects or corpses, raising the dead into powerful Undead. Proficiency, mastery, and efficiency are dependent on Magic Stat and Skill Grade.
…
[Death Domination (B)]
Use your power over the dead to dominate any raised Undead, making them your loyal subjects, while increasing their likeness to develop new powers and enhancements. Also automatically generates an aura of death around the user that helps it find souls.
…
This is quite perfect, the ideal Necromancer starter pack! I guess I am becoming just a mix of many things… This would easily become a confusing story if it were made into a web novel… But well, my days as a web novelist are long gone.
I quickly decided to take out some of the corpses of the goblins, although most of them were horrid, and I moved their souls back into their bodies randomly.
Everyone around me glanced at me with surprise, as the Undead started to rise once more, although most of them seemed weaker than before… But they could be good meat shields.
"Impressive, Master! You've already become a Necromancer?! So fast…!" said Kireina.
"They look very dead, good work," said Ervas.
"Hm, I do wonder if they are weaker than before?" asked Anna.
"Yeah, they are most likely weaker than before, but they can still be some interesting meat shields I guess, and we could also use them to bait monsters and see who survives, maybe the ones that manage to survive the most could end up evolving or something," I said.
"Hm, indeed, that's a good observation," said Kireina.
As my party watched over the Undead, I checked my status once more, seeing the progress I have undergone after changing Jobs, which was a bit intoxicating to see.

Looking good- Eh? S-Rank?!
Wasn't I A-Rank+ before? So… after changing Jobs I just jumped straight to S-Rank?
Well yeah, I do feel a bit more powerful, as if my soul were quite literally overflowing out of my body in the form of an aura, but I thought that was just natural from other Skills.
Well, this is a good thing, so there is no point in getting all confused, let's just accept it with open arms.
For now, we decided to continue through the dungeon, walking downstairs.
However, on the next floor, what we found was… a gigantic shiny crystal.
"Ah… You're finally here…" it said, with the voice of a woman.
