Transmigrating to Modern Earth from the Future

Chapter 13: Spear Magister

[Ding! Abnormal stat values detected...]

[You have met the requirements, hidden class 'Spear Magister' is available as a fifth option.]

Lumen was a little surprised at this new notification as he was just about to choose the Light Warrior as his class. He didn't expect to see a new hidden class as an option for him to choose.

He didn't waste any time and immediately looked through the details of this new class.

[5. Spear Magister - Advanced starting class. A hybrid class focused on both close range combat combined with the abilities of both a heavy and light warrior along with the abilities of a mage. This class favours those who have both the brains and the brawn as both Intelligence and all physical stats need to be above 50 in order to meet the requirements of this class. This class's main weapon is a spear with the addition of the host's own magic. Stat bonuses per level: +2 intelligence, +2 Wisdom, +2 Agility, +2 Stamina, +2 Strength, +2 Endurance, +1 Perception, +1 Unallocated stat.]

It was clear that this class was vastly superior to all of the other basic starting classes just from the stat distribution alone, as it gave a whopping 14 extra points instead of the 9 the other classes gave.

The class was only even more appealing to him as it also provided a more flexible route for him in the future, as he wouldn't just be limited to one path he was forced to follow in the future as he could develop in the direction of both a warrior and a mage at the same time. This class was the most suitable for him right now as he was still undecided on what he wanted his future path to be.

Lumen could only smile with glee internally as he gladly accepted this fifth class as his own, prompting a notification from the system.

[You have chosen the 'Spear Magister' class. Confirm?]

Lumen was all too familiar with security questions like this as he himself had dished these out countless times over his lifespan as the Central AI.

[You have obtained the 'Spear Magister' class.]

As these words appeared on his system panel in front of him, he felt a stinging sensation in his head as unfamiliar information forced itself into his brain, providing him quite an uncomfortable experience. At the same time, some items appeared in his inventory but he was in no rush to check them out yet as his head was still stinging.

But when his head finally calmed down he didn't even get the chance to check his inventory before he was once again greeted by several system messages.

[Gained skill: Basic Spear mastery (Common)]

[Gained skill: Basic Footwork (Common)]

[Gained skill: Basic Identify (Common)]

[Gained skill: Basic Mana bolt (Common)]

[Gained skill: Basic Mana reinforcement (Common)]

[Gained skill: Heal (Uncommon)]

Lumen looked at all of the basic skills he had just learned and he was rather proud and glad that he chose this class already. He doubted the other basic classes provided 6 skills right off the bat like this one did, at most he assumed they would provide 3 skills.

Curious to see what each skill provided him with, he checked each ones description.

[Basic Spear mastery (Lv.1 0%) (Common): You have obtained basic proficiency in the use of a spear in combat, however you still have a lot to learn. When using a spear, a miniscule synergistic effect is formed between the wielder's strength and agility and the spear. +1% damage to all attacks dealt with a spear.]

[Basic Footwork (Lv.1 0%) (Common): You have obtained basic proficiency in the art of movement in combat, but there is still much to be learned as your movements are sloppy. +1% movement speed when in combat.]

[Basic Identify (Lv.1 0%) (Common): This skill grants the user the ability to obtain a very basic description of anything they focus on. Chant the word 'Identify' to activate. Consumes 50 MP upon use.]

[Basic Mana bolt (Lv.1 0%) (Common): Grants the user the ability to cast a bolt of mana which can launched at the enemy in an effective radius of 15 metres. Damage scales with user's wisdom stat. Consumes 100 MP upon use.]

[Basic Mana reinforcement (Lv.1 0%) (Common): Grants the user the ability to reinforce their weapon with mana, improving it's overall strength, damage and speed in combat. Consumes 100 MP upon use.]

[Heal (Lv.1 0%) (Uncommon): A life saving skill that has saved many mages and adventurers in the past. Grants the user the ability to heal injuries, restoring a total of 1000 HP.]

As he read through the skills, all of them seemed to live up to their rating of 'basic' and were rather tame for now, however he noticed that each one had a level and a corresponding percentage following it.

However what seemed very interesting to him is that he instinctively knew how to use each ability, as if they were already ingrained into his memory. This would be the result of the stinging headache he had earlier.

Ignoring his skills for the moment, he then turned to look at his inventory to see which new items he had obtained from the class.

Another 2 slots had been taken up, which seemed rather disappointing to him at first until he noticed that he had some new additions to his Health and mana potions, taking his original totals from 3 health and 2 mana to 6 health and 5 mana, meaning he had been gifted 3 of each potion by the system.

This was quite a nice surprise for him as it was essentially the same value as completing 6 body training quests.

The other two slots were filled in by an ordinary looking spear about 2 metres in length, and a rather mundane and medieval looking set of leather clothes.

He took them out of his inventory in order to inspect and equip them when he remembered one of his new skills.

'Identify' He chanted in his mind.

Without any delay, he received some new system messages.

[You have used Identify on 'Tutorial spear' and 'Burlap armour'. -100 MP, gained 2% proficiency in [Identify]]

Very soon their information showed up in front of him.

[Tutorial spear (Common): A basic wooden spear crafted from a fine oak tree with a fitted coarse iron tip. +5% damage when using this spear.

Durability: 100/100]

[Burlap armour (Common): Basic armour crafted from ordinary animal hide. +2% protection against physical and magic attacks.

Durability: 100/100]

The items weren't anything special but it was expected for a starting class.

Lumen soon finished inspecting his new gear and skills and turned to face the other four people on his platform, who had also just finished dealing with their own class selections.
