"Well," Bernadino’s sigh was barely audible in the air.
"You are right," the last consciousness of a wandering soul in this world dissipated completely as the nightmare realm collapsed.
Having advanced to Gold rank, the processed and easily absorbed curse known as "experience" could no longer strengthen Annan’s career.
What Annan had newly acquired was a resource called "Spirituality," which his parched soul imdiately drank dry.
And with his soul as nourishnt, Annan’s soul, clear as crystal, seed to shine even brighter.
Behind Annan’s "Frostspeaker LV30 (can advance)," a brand-new plus sign finally appeared:
As Annan focused his thoughts on that plus sign,
He was greeted by the long-awaited prompt that appeared before his eyes.
"Please select a direction to advance—"
"Frostspeaker LV30 (can advance): Spirit-bearing Monk (Main Attribute: Perception)"
"Keywords: Summoning, Disturbance, Spiritual Body"
"Mastery: Grappling, Duels, Group Fights, Research, Creation, Instant Death, Self-rebirth"

...A Spirit-bearing Monk, huh.
Annan paused for a mont.
Perhaps this is also a kind of legacy...
Annan skipped this option and continued to look down.
"Frostspeaker LV30 (can advance): Radiant Sovereign (Main Attribute: Perception)"
"Keywords: Buff, Group, Disturbance"
"Mastery: Group Fights, Group Enhancents, Group Healing, Group Debilitation, Reviving Others"

Annan hadn’t expected it.
That he would et the requirents for three advanced job classes just as he had broken through to the Gold rank.
Although he had not yet advanced in the Victorious Knight job, it was fortunate that the Victorious Knight was already considered half a Gold rank job, so this did not matter much.
But for a Frostspeaker to be able to advance at this point... and to choose from three completely different paths that had nothing to do with the Disabling School was sothing Annan had not anticipated at all.
Furthermore, Annan had received so valuable intelligence – did so wizards really need a large number of spell slots to advance to Gold rank?
When Annan’s Frostspeaker profession advanced to level 30, his "Instant Spells," "Guided Spells," and "Chanting Spells" all reached LV6, while his "Ritual Spells" were at LV4. This ant Annan could configure a total of 22 spells.
The reason for this ratio was because the Frostspeaker profession emphasized "Chanting Spells" and almost did not use "Ritual Spells," so among the high-ranking spells of Chanting and Ritual, the forr had six slots while the latter only had four.
If we consider a more extre profession – for instance, Salvatore.
He is also an Alchemist who had reached the pinnacle of the Silver rank; his "Instant Spells" are only at LV4 and his "Ritual Spells" are at a pitiful LV1, but both his "Guided Spells" and "Chanting Spells" are as high as LV10.
This ans Salvatore had twenty-five spell slots, slightly more than a Frostspeaker, but with a severe focus in certain areas.
...But being specialized or not doesn’t really matter anymore.
Out of Annan’s 22 spell slots, he had only configured eight spells... leaving him with a full fourteen spell slots empty.
After all, in this world, spell slots couldn’t be "re-specced."
So Annan was quite hesitant.
Unless it was a spell he urgently needed, or one that he obtained directly, he hardly added any spells.
This could probably also be considered a kind of decision-making difficulty.
He had originally planned to consult Isaac’s opinion and add so spells after the nightmare ended. However, the requirents for these Gold-tier professions startled him.
Did all these professions actually need empty spell slots?
...No wonder so many hereditary professions required a special "recipe."
Take for example the Black Radiance Eye – Annan could tell at a glance that it was an exclusive Gold-tier profession of the Tower of Black Radiance. Or, considering the situation of Heath Tower of Black, one could even say... that the Tower of Black Radiance was nad as such because it held the legacy of the Black Radiance Eye.
Just by looking at the prefix and the subsequent professional requirents, one could easily figure it out...
So, there must be professions that required empty spell slots, as there surely were professions that required filled spell slots.
According to the intelligence on Annan’s side, the Jade Record’s Isaac was a well-known versatile wizard. He had mastered a large number of transmutation spells, so it’s estimated that even if he had any empty slots, it definitely wouldn’t exceed three.
However, when it cos to choosing a profession... there’s no question about it.
– Annan could never beco a Soul Snatching Wizard who manipulated the minds of others, nor could he inherit the Tower of Black Radiance. It was the sa regardless of the power level of these professions.
It’s the sa reason he was unwilling to beco a spirit-bearing monk.
However, Annan hadn’t expected that at the Bronze rank he was a swordsman using ice magic, at Silver rank he beca a dragon capable of spitting ice and light, and at Gold rank he suddenly switched to being a healer...
But this was also reasonable.
Only the strongest had the right to be a support.
Moreover, Annan’s racial template and his highly awakened composite Elental Power had already provided him with combat capabilities. Gold rank Transcendents were originally ant to emphasize functionality over combat – after all, Elental Power was really handy.
"Radiant Sovereign... I quite like that na."
Annan murmured, his lips curving slightly upward.
I hope I can truly beco the Sovereign of Radiance.
With that thought, he began to carefully review the special abilities of his Gold-tier profession.
