After staying up late for special training and being lectured by Nina, I hardly got any sleep. Nina had been using a combination of the Assassin's 'Stealth Walking' skill with 'Stealth' and 'Ambush.'
For breakfast, I had a sandwich with bacon and vegetables, and milk to drink, which filled me up nicely. After eating, I headed to the guild. My item pouch was stuffed with materials from the monsters I defeated during yesterday's special training, and I wanted to sell them to free up some space.
When I arrived at the guild, my eyes met Colette's, one of the receptionists at the counter. She waved at me with a big smile. The male adventurers who saw this glared at me, but I ignored them.
"Yu, what brings you here today?"
"I'm here to sell materials and to take on a 2nd job since I've reached level 20."
Nina and Rena looked surprised, and Colette seemed a bit taken aback as well.
"Well, you were level 19 yesterday, so it's not strange that you're level 20 today... But didn't you sell materials yesterday?"
Colette, as usual, reveals her slip-ups whether she's innocent or just naive.
"When did you find out I was level 19?"
"Um... that... well..."
Colette realized her mistake and panicked. I decided to let it go and move on.
"Since I have a lot of materials, can I sell them along with my job change in the job change room?"
"Y-Yes! Of course, that's fine!"
As Colette and I were talking, an adventurer approached us.
"Hey! You had a tough time yesterday, didn't you?"
"Are you the kind-hearted old man?"
"Who's an old man?!"
Since this was a good opportunity, I asked the kind-hearted old man to show Nina the 'Assassin's Techniques,' but he hesitated despite his kindness.
"Do you not want to know what happened after that yesterday?"
"Hmm... I am curious."
Larit seemed interested, so I made a further concession.
"I'm not asking you to show everything. Just up to level 1."
"Alright, if it's just that... But how did you know I was an assassin?"
I can't mock Colette either. I asked without thinking.
"You're famous. When I asked other adventurers, they told me right away."
Larit seemed somewhat pleased, even puffing out his chest a bit.
"True, I'm said to be the closest to C-rank on the first floor."
It seems this old man is quite well-known.
"Nina, I'll take care of the job change and selling materials while you learn."
"Got it. What about Rena?"
"…I'll follow Yu."
Damn… There's no avoiding Rena finding out about my 2nd job.
In the job change room, I placed my hand on the crystal, and a new list of jobs appeared.
'Monk,' 'Magic Fist Fighter,' 'Enchanter,' 'Magic Knight,' 'Assassin'
(Yes, the Enchanter is there!)
I couldn't help but grip the crystal tightly when I saw the job I was aiming for.
The 'Enchanter' is a support job that primarily assists party members. With enchantment magic, you can boost stats and, at higher levels, even lower the enemy's abilities.
"N-N-New job!?"
Colette was making a strange face as she peered at the crystal.
"…Interesting face."
"Colette, please calm down."
Colette, far from calming down, got even more excited and spoke right in my face.
"A new job! How can I calm down?"
Summarizing Colette's excited rambling, the 'Magic Fist Fighter' is a newly discovered job, and the guild is desperate for information on new jobs. For providing the information, I would receive 10 gold coins, and for the conditions to obtain it, an additional 20 gold coins.
"Is that so? Well, I don't plan to become one. This time, I'll be an Enchanter."
Upon hearing this, Colette looked disappointed, but she accepted it, as Enchanters are essential and rare in parties. I had a good idea of the conditions to become a 'Magic Fist Fighter.'
I placed my hand on the crystal again and focused on 'Enchanter.'
My appearance didn't change, but 'Enchanter' was clearly listed as my 2nd job.
As usual, my stats had significantly increased just by taking on a new job.

I gained many new skills from the special training yesterday and from becoming an Enchanter. Unarmed combat, night vision, and magic fist were added because they combine physical and magical techniques. Additionally, the level of Plunder increased, allowing me to steal unique skills. I successfully stole 'Follower Subjugation.' Since I am human, I can try to subjugate humans next. 'Strength Enhancement' was taken from a named Goblin General, and after checking my stats, 'Strength Boost' disappeared, indicating it was integrated. My strength was clearly higher, so there was no mistake.
"Colette, I know a bit about the Enchanter, so please handle the material sales."
I had already purchased information about jobs yesterday, so there was no need for a detailed explanation. When I took out nearly 100 kilograms of materials from my item pouch, Colette froze again.
"A-Are these... Goblin General's ears?"
"Yes, is there a problem?"
"No, no problem! I'm just surprised to see materials from a rank 3 monster."
The total from selling the materials was 4 gold coins and 2 silver coins. The Goblin General's ears were in high demand as alchemy catalysts, so they sold for a good price.
"…Aren't you going to sell the magic core fragments?"
"I won't sell the fragments. I have a use for them."
With my 2nd job secured and the materials sold, I headed to the training ground where Nina was.
