Chapter 20

First, we decided to buy food and potions at the general store and head to the dungeon.

"By the way, how many dungeons are there in this town?"

"Yes, there are beginner, intermediate, and advanced dungeons. I think we can handle the intermediate dungeon."

"Then let's go to the intermediate dungeon."

Fighting cobolds, our levels will probably start to rise more slowly.

"No, I think it would be better for you to clear the beginner dungeon first. The beginner dungeon has a boss room on the 10th floor, and all party members who defeat the boss for the first time receive a bonus."

A dungeon clear bonus. It really is like a game.

"Have you ever defeated a boss, Haru?"

"Yes. When I defeated it, I obtained the 'Speed Up (Minor)' skill."

"Wow, you can get skills. Then let's do that."

We decided to head to the beginner dungeon we explored yesterday.

Before that, I made a major change to my job and checked my status.

Yeah, compared to the beginning, it's like night and day.

"By the way, what's Haru's status like?"

"You can take a look if you want."

"Huh? Can you easily see other people's status?"

"For allies, if they give permission. Just say 'Status Open' with their name."

……………………………………………………

Wow, she's strong.

She's not as strong as I was before the job change, but she's much stronger than I was before killing the two thieves.

"There's a Beast Swordsman job too."

"Beast Swordsman is an advanced job for beastmen. However, only Beast Priests can change jobs, so I can't become a Beast Swordsman. There are only a few Beast Priests in the world."

Hmm, is that so... Can't I do it with my job change skill?

……………………………………………………

Ah, it was easy.

It seems I can change my allies' jobs. The Beast Swordsman has 0 magic attack, but with a speed of 110 at level 1, that's impressive.

Advanced jobs aren't a lie.

Can I change the jobs of people who aren't my allies? I'll try it next time. If I can, it would make the fight with the boxer easier, no, I could be invincible in PvP.

"Haru, shall we level up as a Beast Swordsman?"

"Yes, if possible, I'd like to do that."

"Alright, then promise me you won't make a big noise and check your status."

Seeing is believing.

Without a puzzled look, Haru did as she was told and said "Status Open."

Sure enough, even Haru, who usually has a poker face, opened her eyes wide.

"Master, what is this?"

"It's, well, my special ability. It seems to be quite rare."

"...... Normally, job changes can only be done by priests in holy places. I've never heard of a skill that can change jobs instantly outside of holy places."

"Then it's better if no one else knows about this skill."

"Yes, there's a risk of misuse."

I was thinking the same thing. If you commit a major crime, you become a thief, bandit, or pirate, and you can't enter towns by normal means.

We don't know how the bandits and thieves we defeated got into the dungeon in town.

But with my power, I can change the jobs of bandits and pirates back to non-criminal jobs.

"There are still many things I haven't told you, Haru, but I'll tell you in the deeper part of the dungeon."

"Understood. Also, Master, I must say this is difficult, but I don't think I can fully use my power while I'm level 1. Can we share the experience points from monster hunts for a while?"

"Share the experience points?"

"Yes, as I mentioned before, normally, only the person who delivers the final blow gets the experience points when a monster is defeated. However, if the party is set up, the party leader can decide the distribution of experience points. There are two options: the person who delivers the final blow gets all the experience points, or the person who delivers the final blow gets 50%, and the rest is shared among the party."

Ah, indeed, Haru's status has the [Leader] title and [Experience Distribution Setting]. It must be a skill gained from the title.

"In other words, if I defeat a kobold and get 10 experience points, it can be split 5 and 5, right?"

I don't know if a kobold gives 10 experience points, but let's say it does for the sake of example.

"No, in that case, you would get 5 experience points first, and then out of the remaining 5, you would get 2.5 and I would get 2.5."

I don't know if there are experience points less than 1, but that's how it works.

So, with the sharing system, the person who defeated the monster gets 3/4, and the other person gets 1/4.

"I see... In that case, I want to defeat the monsters on floors 1 to 3. I think I can defeat them with one hit. Is that okay?"

"Yes, of course. I think you can defeat all the monsters with one hit."

The difference between 20x experience gain and 1/20 required experience.

Everyone should understand that they are completely different, even though they seem the same.
