Darius Supreme

Darius closed this screen and switched back to his Inventory. He was now ready to activate the contents of the Beginner's Giftpack.

Darius started by selecting the Map Interface Upgrade.

[The map function has been added successfully! Access the main map of the world through the system menu and customize the mini-map in the Settings menu!]

Darius took the advice and immediately did just that. He discovered that he could either set the mini-map to appear in the corner of his vision or at the back of his mind. He naturally chose to have it at the back of his mind, as he did not wish to be distracted by it.

He also checked the main map and found that, unsurprisingly, everything but the little glade he was in was pitch black. So this was the 'exploration' type of map, where it only recorded places he had been to while the rest was left in a 'Fog of War'.

Darius smiled bitterly and chose the Small Database Infopack. He felt a sudden headache that went as quickly as it had appeared, and suddenly he had access to a wealth of knowledge that was as if it had always been there and he had just briefly forgotten it.

For example, he now knew that the glade was situated in the Andrato Kingdom, a relatively small country on the frontier. Not only was the country considered young, being created only 300 years ago, having had 5 rulers since its establishment, but it was also quite weak compared to the others nearer to the central mainland.

In other words, the perfect 'Starter Zone'. The datapack had taught him the customs of the Andrato Kingdom, the locations of all its cities, their specialties, and their culture.

Darius checked the main map and as expected, it had been updated. It now covered the entire territory of the Andrato Kingdom. All 300+ farming villages and hamlets, 20 towns, and 5 big cities, the capital included.

He was shocked to realize just how small the unlocked portion of the map was compared to the ever-expansive blackness. With this Darius could easily infer that the entire world of Faust was quite huge, larger than Earth at least.

He closed the map and rubbed his forehead. It seemed like he would have to plan his steps forward carefully, as what he had learned from the Infopack troubled him greatly.

But such considerations could be handled before he set out for the nearest city. Right now, Darius looked forward to what choices his Class Initiator would offer him.

[Welcome to the Class Initiator sub-system! A random draw of 6 Supreme classes will be drawn based on your Luck. Would you like to initiate the procedure?]

"I do." Darius answered firmly.

He saw the screen before him transform into a dartboard with six sectors. Each sector was blank initially, but Darius noticed that the board began to brighten up like LED lights, with each sector shuffling between a slew of terms until they all settled down slowly.

He inspected each one of them.

[Broker - Class

Description: A class suitable for merchants that allows for the easy acquisition of goods and services as well as lucrative trade in all sectors the user partakes in.]

[Spellblade - Class

Description: A class suitable for swordsmen trying to branch out in their abilities, allowing them to use magic as perfectly as a mage while still maintaining their prowess with a blade.]

[Craftsman - Class

Description: A class suitable for vocationists who prefer to create special tools and items to assist the lifestyle of the general populace. Encompasses all known crafting trades.]

[Magus - Class

Description: A class suitable for magic users. This class allows the user to learn any type and field of magic without penalty to specialization and capitalizes on the Intellect of the user.]

[Pugilist - Class

Description: A class suitable for brawlers and fighters who prefer to fight unarmed. This class allows the user to learn all forms of martial arts with ease and capitalizes on the Strength of the user.]

[Itemancer - Class

Description: A class suitable for appraisers and valuers. This class allows the user to identify all types of items and quantify them. It can also assist the user in quantifying all living beings.]

Presented with such a selection, the classes Darius was most interested in were the Broker and the Craftsman. Either of them seemed custom-made for him, playing to his strengths and allowing him to rise quickly in the field of business.

[Begin the draw for the main class?]

Ah… it seemed as if his main class and subclass would both be drawn from this single lot? That was truly useful, no wonder this item had been graded as Supreme quality.

"Please do." Darius assented with a gentle wave.

The board began to spin rapidly to the point where Darius was unable to follow it with his eyes. Fortunately, a special chromium dart manifested from nothingness in front of Darius.

Darius reached out to grasp it, but his hand only passed through it.

[Please do not interfere with the Dart of Chance. It is formed from the quantization of your Luck and will automatically select your class based on the quality of the stats of the user.]

Reading this, Darius settled down and watched the proceedings leisurely. Luck was an intangible thing that was truly fickle, but Darius had enough confidence now that his had been quantified fully.

Soon, the dart struck out and hit the board. Once it connected, the board slowed to a stop, and Darius could finally see what class he had gotten.

[Congratulations! You have acquired the Itemancer class!]

Darius frowned deeply. He had no real interest in that class. After all, he had reasoned that it shouldn't be too hard to acquire an 'Inspect' skill that would allow him to appraise items.

Still, since what it had been was based on his high Luck, Darius considered that there might be something special about the class he had yet to figure out.

[Begin the draw for the sub-class?]

Darius pondered for a bit before nodding. "Please do."
