Chapter 476

'Hue, I have to think calmly about this…'

A proposal to be promoted to a top tier hidden cla.s.s appeared .

'Summoner Knight' was obviously a new and amazing hidden cla.s.s for the summoner cla.s.s .

Normally in Kailan, it was impossible to change from one cla.s.s to another .

Ian was feeling conflicted, as it was the G.o.ds who gave him the chance to change to a 4th tier hidden cla.s.s to show their grat.i.tude for 'Muran's crystal' .

The reason why Ian was conflicted was because in his quest window the 'Taming Master' cla.s.s tier-up option could be seen .

'Even if I raise the Taming Master's tier or pick being a Summoner Knight, they will both be in the same tier…'

Which cla.s.s was better for their current situation wasn't clear yet, and the two cla.s.ses were totally different .

The first difference between the two was their cla.s.s cla.s.sifications .

The Taming Master was an evolutionary hidden cla.s.s where one could upgrade its tier . The Summoner Knight, on the other hand, was a cla.s.s that was already cla.s.sified as a top tier—the 4th tier—without being upgraded right from the beginning .

If a user would be given the chance to transfer to a higher tier, that user would probably not be able to decide right away .

The thing that Ian was really concerned about was the '4th tier' .

If Ian picked being a Summoner Knight, he could change his cla.s.s the moment he accepted the quest . However, if Ian chose to do the 4th tier of the Taming Master, he would have to tame the Dragon of Darkness, Lugarix .

If Lugarix was a normal monster, then it wouldn't be an issue . However, he was a named monster with a unique name and of myth rank .

It wasn't clear if the task was possible or not since there were no records yet of anyone being able to successfully upgrade to a 4th tier .

'Uh, Summoner Knight…'

It was a deeply troubling topic for Ian .

However, Ian didn't have the time to worry about all this .

The Kailan planning team of the LB company .

Na Ji-chan, who was working late at night, was going somewhere with hot water for his cup ramen .

“I love cup ramen at night . ”

Na Ji-chan—the only person in the planning team who enjoyed night s.h.i.+fts .

Na Ji-chan stayed back in the company the whole week .

“Is no one in the monitoring room?”

Keeck-

Na Ji-chan opened the door and glanced around the monitor room . He couldn't help but smile since it was quiet .

One of the greatest pleasures of Na Ji-chan was to watch a dozen monitors in the monitoring room and watch videos while digging into his cup ramen .

He couldn't really have ramen in the monitoring room when other employees were around . So he could only do this during his night s.h.i.+fts .

“Kay!”

Na Ji-chan sat on the most comfortable position to look at the monitors . He then picked up the remote control and started to turn on the monitors one after the other .

Ping- Ping- Ping- Piping-

As the monitors were being turned on one after another, a small sound came out . Na Ji-chan then started to work on the keyboard to set the screens on the rankers that he wanted to see .

“Since it is already 9 pm, all the rankers will be online now . ”

To see what quests the rankers would be working on and what planned content they were going to open, Na Ji-chan turned on the monitors with excitement .

The first set of monitors that Na Ji-chan turned to was that of Ian's .

Except for special cases, Na Ji-chan always checked Ian's videos right away .

Na Ji-chan who was carefully examining Ian's videos burst out of excitement .

“Ohho, you found the underground prison of the Lich King? That's faster than what I expected… how did you find it?”

No other content related to the Lich King could be seen unless the Episode of Conquest had progressed . So what Ian did made Na Ji-chan dumbfounded .

“The structure looked like the Rataphel Manor… Lotus already went through Rataphel? How could that have happened?”

Na Ji-chan was mumbling to himself and turned on the tablet PC that he always carried .

He then looked at the data that only planning team members could see .

“Hmm, surely… you haven't reached Rataphel yet . So how did you get in there?”

Na Ji-chan was looking at the video with much more excitement than he had a while ago .

He didn't understand how Ian found that place, but he had a slight idea as to why he was able to found it .

'He was trying to find h.e.l.liem . '

Na Ji-chan knew a little information about h.e.l.liem .

Though he wasn't the one who planned the character, the character was an important NPC .

“I can't believe this guy's luck or was he just that persistent . This guy's game sense is amazing!”

The lowest floor of the Rataphel Domain .

Ian guessed that h.e.l.liem was definitely there .

The greatest knight of the Luspel Empire .

In fact, if the Lich King quest went in the right direction, then the NPC h.e.l.liem was the one who was designed to get through the quest .

Once the Lich King was defeated and the darkness has been lifted, a quest would be created to purify h.e.l.liem who had fallen into darkness .

It wasn't yet the time for those things to happen .

Users could only get to h.e.l.liem once the Lich King had been successfully defeated .

However, Ian managed to find the underground prison ahead of time . No one knew now where the quest would head to .

'Keu, are you for real Ian G.o.d? If he wants to clear the dungeon safely without being caught by Rataphel's Knights… he really needs to get h.e.l.liem . '

If they really did manage to do that, the Lotus Kingdom would be able to soar even higher than where they were now .

Rather than the individual strength that h.e.l.liem possesses, the level of the knights of the Lotus Kingdom could be raised tremendously with h.e.l.liem on their side .

In fact, if one compared h.e.l.liem and Kaizer with each other, the fighting abilities of Kaizer were more superior .

However, that was just their stats and combat abilities . h.e.l.liem was still far superior to Kaizer when it came to leaders.h.i.+p and everything else .

“Phew, this will be a fixed channel once again…”

Slurrp-!

While slurping his cup ramen, Na Ji-chan operated the remote again .

After moving Ian's video at the center, he turned off all the other monitors .

“Huhu, I feel sorry for your party members… it won't be easy for you anymore, Ian G.o.d . ”

Ian's party were fighting their way through the Undead monsters .

Seeing the rankers defeat the dungeon they created, it felt like he was fighting head-on with the rankers .

When the party's battle with the Death knights including Rosen happened, Na Ji-chan reached the maximum levels of his excitement .

“Right, Rosen! The AI is working well!”

Rosen controlled the Death Knights one by one and caused great trouble for Ian's party .

Seeing the scene brought great happiness to Na Ji-chan .

“Ha! What will you do now, Ian? If you won't clear the dungeon within 2 to 3 hours, then you'll probably be caught by Rataphel's Knights, right?”

Na Ji-chan was talking as if he was directly conversing with Ian .

However, something suddenly happened that made Na Ji-chan fl.u.s.tered .

Muran suddenly appeared and wiped out all the Death Knights .

“Crazy…!”

He knew that the arrangement of Muran was under process and that someday Muran would visit Ian .

But even then, this ridiculous turn of events made Na Ji-chan's eyes doubtful .

“Why now Muran?”

Na Ji-chan thought that he possibly couldn't see anything weirder than that .

If Muran helped Ian's party, the dungeon would be cleared in 30 minutes rather than 2 hours .

It wasn't just because of Muran's power .

The reason why Muran came to Ian was because Ian took the 'Summoner Knight' 4th tier hidden cla.s.s .

Ian, who inherited the abilities of Muran would be changed to a 4th tier hidden cla.s.s 'Summoner Knight' and would gain powerful skills immediately .

In addition, all of his stats would be adjusted to the stats of the 4th tier hidden cla.s.s he picked .

It had an entirely different power compared to the 3rd tier .

Once Ian's familiars became compatible with the combat abilities of Muran, the difficulty of the dungeon would be reduced by half .

Na Ji-chan shook his head .

“Huu, Now if he gets h.e.l.liem…”

According to the planning team's plans, h.e.l.liem couldn't be reached as of the moment .

In other words, Ian would have immediately hired him if he had rescued him .

Other users with low affinity wouldn't have known, but Ian who was always in the forefront for the Lotus Empire would have enough affinity with h.e.l.liem .

“Dammit . ”

Na Ji-chan was feeling intrigued and started to turn on the other monitors once again .

No matter how many monitors were displaying Ian's videos, he just never seemed to be losing interest .

“Ah, this…”

Na Ji-chan grunted while reaching out for the remote .

After a while, Na Ji-chan started to doubt his own ears .

Because he just heard an unbelievable speech coming from Ian .

[Thank you, but I can't . ]

[What is that…?]

[I can't accept your offer . ]

After hearing that, Na Ji-chan got up from his seat and looked at the screen .

“Why?”

“What?”

“I am powerful . If you take my power, you will get a hold of a mighty power for you are a summoner . ”

“Yes, that is true . ”

“Then why would you reject my strength? You are the true hero who has inherited my will . We are fated to take over everything and kill the Lich king…”

Muran's face went blank and dull when Ian rejected him .

It was the same as Ian's party members .

“Ian, what are you doing?”

“Yah, what do you think you're doing now? Do you think the 4th tier cla.s.s will come to you like calling out a dog's name?”

Everyone was dumbfounded except Hoonie .

“Hmm, is this hyung finally trying to put restraints on himself . Surely playing the game alone isn't even a bit fun . ”

However, he wasn't even a bit interested in what his party members had to say . Ian then said,

“Muran, My path is the path of the Taming Master . ”

“I know . ”

“And I haven't reached the end of this road . ”

“The 'Summoner Knight' is a very exciting route, but not for now . I at least want to see what the Taming Master can show me at the end of the road . I will then think about your offer . ”

All of Ian's party members became sulky and so was Muran .

Basing on the AI that was embedded in Muran, it was a very tough decision for it to understand .

However, it was very brilliant for the AI to cope with all these unforeseen development . Muran soon understood and responded to Ian's answer,

“Well, you sure are qualified to be called a hero . ”

“Since you are a great man, you should have the desire and aspiration of such sort . ”

“Yeah, well . ”

Muran responded,

“Nice . I will respect your choice, but…”

“But?”

“However, you must carry on my will . ”

“Your will…?”

An ominous feeling came over Ian .

“I, Muran who has inherited the will of a hero, will defend humanity by stopping the Richie King Chalian's ambition and punish him!”

Tring-!

And with that, the notification of a quest came on .

– A Hero's Responsibility (Hidden) –

You are the hero who has inherited the will of Muran .

You chose to be the 'Taming Master' even after Muran's offer to be a 'Summoner Knight' .

That proves how outstanding of a hero you are in the Human Dimension .

Defeat the Lich King Chalian and defend the order and peace of the Human Dimension .

If you don't perform these responsibilities you will have to pay dearly .
