Volume 3 Chapter 40-2 How To Raise A Blasphemer
Even if there was no job class, he decided to become strong enough to protect Alium.
Now is the time to prove that.
(I will protect Ms. Alium──!)
Remembering the days of training, Suisen swung a wooden stick and charged at one of the adventurers.
"[Purple Nimbus]!"
Crack!!!
Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through his back.
"Ugh... ah...!"
At the same time, his whole body went numb, and Suisen collapsed weakly to the ground.
Feeling the fresh memory of intense pain, he glanced back and saw Sianna Navis grinning.
"Si, anna...!"
In her hand was the same "Purple Lightning (Vaidor)" he had seen earlier.
Squinting, he noticed a small purple "cloud" in her palm.
That was a type of 'Cloud magic' that Sianna Navis could wield.
She could transform magic into Purple Nimbus and manipulate it freely.
She could also create Blue Nimbus and snow clouds, and her job class was...
'Cloud Magician.'
"Please stay still, Sir Suisen. Otherwise, you will experience even more pain."
While he was paralyzed by the lightning magic, Suisen found himself surrounded by male adventurers.
They relentlessly kicked, punched, and threw him around, using chairs and bottles to strike him.
"Ah... gah...!"
He tasted blood in his mouth, and his head throbbed painfully, causing his vision to blur.
Suisen sank to the ground, covered in wounds, gasping in pain as he felt the cold floor beneath him.
"Please stop it there. This is my future partner. If anything happens, I will erase you all."
"Tch, you got lucky, Suisen Pride."
One of the male adventurers suddenly grabbed my hair and forced me to lift my face.
He slowly brought the broken bottle's sharp edge closer to my face while glaring at me sharply.
"I'd love to smash that pretty face of yours to bits, but I'll let you off easy this time. If you're scared, just tremble here quietly, you useless Suisen Pride."
"..."
Finally, his head was slammed against the floor, and he let out a soundless cry.
He realized his whole body was shaking, and his body wouldn't listen to him, so he bit his lip in silence.
(...Weak)
He's weak.
Too weak.
Right in front of him, his crush is about to be attacked, and all he can do is lie on the ground and tremble.
He feels painfully aware of his mental and physical immaturity.
He decided to become stronger to protect Alium, yet here he is, exposing such a blunder.
It's utterly ridiculous.
'I'm not confident in myself.'
In the end, it's all because of that.
He can't stand up because he lacks self-confidence.
Even now, he's shaking and scared.
Nothing has changed since the days he was bullied and alone.
He's still the cowardly, pathetic, talentless Suisen Pride.
Tormented by intense feelings of inferiority, he rolled on the ground with tears welling in his eyes.
'Still, I'll lend you my strength.'
In that moment, Roezé's gentle voice suddenly flashed through his mind.
He isn't alone.
At least now, unlike back then, there's one person he can call a friend.
The only true friend who has helped him, who has devotedly trained with him, despite his lack of talent and courage.
'If you ever have any troubles, just come to me anytime. I want you to come back to Nurturer.'
Even without a job class, he thought of ways for him to become stronger.
Even if he was a burden, he trained with him.
When he said he lacked self-confidence, he pushed him as hard as he could.
When he revealed his feelings for Alium, he supported him wholeheartedly.
He has such a kind friend, and he's right here with him.
(Hold on to your confidence...!)
He might not have talent.
He might not have courage either.
Still, he has one close friend he can trust completely.
The me who lacks confidence can confidently say...
──I have the best friend.
So, can he say he still lacks confidence after his friend trained with him?
The days of training spent with Nurturer Roezé, the experiences he's gained, the "courage" he's received from him...
Isn't it all within him now?.
So...
(Stand up...! Move...! Fight, Suisen Pride!!!)
"U, aaaaah!!!"
Igniting the flames of fighting spirit once more, Suisen Pride stood up.
In an instant, his body began to emit a dazzling "pure white light," as if responding to that fighting spirit.
"What the──!?"
The white light released from Suisen illuminated the dim room, causing all the adventurers, including Sianna, to widen their eyes in shock.
Suisen, who was supposed to have no job class, triggered an unknown phenomenon, leaving them all confused and frozen.
The light from Suisen gradually intensified, and then it seemed to fade away like a dying flame.
A moment of silence enveloped the room, broken by Sianna's hoarse voice.
"W-what... was that light...?"
She stared at the standing Suisen, sensing an unusual atmosphere and feeling confused.
On the other hand, Suisen was also bewildered by the changes happening to him, looking down at his own body in silence.
"...Ah, ahaha! What do you mean by that light! Did you think such a trick could stop us? Now everyone, don't just stand there, hurry and...!"
Seeing the male adventurers standing there in a daze, Sianna raised her voice and approached Alium.
To provoke them, she reached out her hand towards the sleeping Alium without hesitation.
Catching that out of the corner of his eye, Suisen quickly shouted to Sianna.
"[Don't touch me]!"
"──!?"
In that instant, Sianna's body stiffened as if it had turned to stone.
Clearly an unnatural stop.
As if bound by an invisible force, Sianna couldn't move a single finger.
While the male adventurers were puzzled, Suisen felt a strange power in his voice and, belatedly, realized what was happening.
From within his body, a "force" he had never experienced before was overflowing.
He felt a sense of liberation, as if he had been freed from leaden restraints.
It was a feeling of taking a step forward as a living being.
He even felt a sense of fulfillment, as if he had been reborn.
Thinking 'no way,' Suisen readied his hands and quickly recited the incantation.
"[Show Divine Revelation]."
Immediately, a parchment-like paper appeared in his hands, and Suisen quickly scanned the surface.
Then there it was...
[Job Class] Charmer
[Level] 1
[Skill] Charm, Fear, Clown
[Magic] Enchantment Magic
[Divine Blessing]
- Strength: F100
- Agility: F100
- Resilience: F100
- Magic: D250
- Holy Power: F0
"..."
Suisen felt an indescribable joy in his heart and quietly smiled to himself.
At the same time, he remembered his best friend's apologetic expression and called out to him in his heart.
'I'm sorry I couldn't be of help.'
(No, Roezé. You have definitely been my strength.)
He had given him the courage in that state.
He had helped him gain confidence in himself.
He had granted him the power to protect those important to him.
As a Nurturer, he fulfilled the request splendidly.
It might have been presumptuous, but he became his first true friend.
Because Roezé devotedly trained with him, he could now stand there with courage and confidence.
(It's going to be alright now, Suisen Pride)
Having awakened the long-desired job class, Suisen's smile deepened.
Since he had just awakened, his level was low, and his divine blessing values were modest.
However, realizing the true nature of the power that stopped Sianna earlier, Suisen became confident of his "victory." With a nostalgic feeling, he dramatically swept his bangs aside and proudly said to the adventurers.
"You should truly regret trying to lay a hand on Ms. Alium. This beautiful and strong Suisen Pride will pass judgment on you tonight."
