Chapter 154 - Tutor Part 4

"I want to be a Tank support," Elbert said to Joan.

"I want to be a support," Anna said to him.

"I want to be a damage dealer," Gil said.

"I want to be a tank support and a damage dealer," Sufia said.

"Sure?" Joan asked.

"Yes," She replied.

"How about you Patricia?" Joan asked.

"I, I want to be a support!" She said.

"Okay," Joan then smiled.

"I want to be a damage dealer," Kale said, raising his hands.

"Von?" Joan asked.

"I want to be Tank support," He said.

"Good, Heinz?"

"Support," He replied.

"Now that all have chosen their types, we will train tomorrow morning. Any objections?" Joan asked.

"None," Said Elbert.

Morning came and they were all ready for their training. All formed in one line inside the arena gym. Joan was talking as their instructor.

"Everyone listen up! You are all here to train. But what is the reason why you want to train? Elbert?" Joan asked him.

"To be strong and win!" He replied.

"Such an upfront and reasonable reason. But is there a reason that you want to win? In any case, you all get strong?" Joan asked again.

"We, we want to help the Child of Hope to vanquish the evil lands!" Sufia said.

"Such a cheesy idea. I like it," Joan replied.

"So you all have more reasons? Like women? Fame? Glory?" Joan replied.

The boys chuckled but it was stopped midway.

"Oh, women? Well, we all boys desired to get married. It is a natural thing! Don't be ashamed about it," Joan said.

"Yes, master!" The boys replied.

The girls then smacked their backs.

"Anyways, does the job class you have knew all its skills?" Joan asked.

"We do have some skills mastered but other skills are still unlearned. We also knew that our chosen build is not adequate with our skills apparently," Elbert said. Joan nodded at what he said.

"Okay, so we will first learn the adequate skills for your chosen builds. Then we proceed on enhancing that skills. Mastering them and etch it on your minds," Joan said to them.

"The Support types will learn the [Conjure staff] as the weapon then [Staff smash] as an attack. [Heal] will be your main support skill and [Bless] as a secondary. It will be your buffs and [Judgement zone] will be your area of effect," Joan said to them.

"Understood!" They replied.

"Tank support will be having the Conjure [Holy armour] and [Conjure shield]. Then the [Shield bash] will be his crowd control. [Heal] and [Bless] will be learned as a support skill," Joan said to them.

"Understood master!" The Tank support types chorused.

"As for the Damage dealers, you will focus on damaging skills. Specifically, the [Shield bash], [Conjure holy armour], [Conjure holy sword], [Sword slash], and [Judgement zone]," Joan explained.

The ones who were damage dealers nodded.

"Now for the hybrid," Joan stared at Sufia.

"You will learn all of the skills but the efficacy of the skill will be lesser than them. Is that okay for you?" Joan asked.

"Yes! It is okay!" She said to him.

"Good! Now we start learning skills first!" Joan said to them.

[Shield bash]–a burst of speed and strength to hit the opponent with the shield. A basic skill of a Protector Knight.

[Heal]–more advanced version of Minor heal. Able to heal cuts and wounds.

[Sword slash]–a burst of speed and strength of slashing the enemy with a sword. A basic skill of an Offensive Knight.

[Staff smash]–a skill of using the staff with a burst of speed and power. A basic skill of Priests in their fighting skills.

[Conjure holy armour]–an armour that has healing properties. Made of the holy element that was harmful to the monsters and demons. The defence will be boosted with the holy element affinity. Maintained by mana and repairs with mana.

[Conjure holy sword]–a sword made for killing monsters and demons. Deals more damage to such enemies and it works only to such creatures. It can be imbued with a more holy element for greater effects.

[Conjure holy shield]–a shield that was made of the holy element. Boosting the defence of the user as long as he uses the shield. Can raise its defensive stats with more holy element will be injected to it.

[Judgement zone]–all creatures of darkness will be repelled from the light. The more the enemies will approach, the more they will be repelled and the more damage they will suffer. It has Holy burning damage that was harmful to demons and monsters and it increases the more the enemies gets closer.

[Bless]–a skill of the Holy Knights that gives rise to stats one rank higher than the current rank. Making a master rank to be on Grandmaster.

It was then they were taught skills they didn't know yet. The sun has yet to rise and they were all busy learning the skills. They immediately used the skills after they learned them. Thanks to their mana cultivation, they managed to spam some skills. Like [Staff smash], [Shield bash], [Sword slash]. These skills can be spammed with you having the mana to spend. But it could be strenuous for your body if you have low stats for the skill to be used. They can be spammed as they have low cooldowns.

Equipping an enchanted item like a necklace or ring that has cooldown reductions will also do the trick. But enchanted items were pricey and the ones who have the money can only purchase them. Enchanting was also a pricey education as making enchantments for practice were on pricey materials like rings and necklaces. The student also sometimes uses armours and weapons in their practice sessions.

Other skills have high cooldowns and so they make its proficiency rise with more usage of the skill. It was then, they all practised their skills. Joan was guiding them one on one and they were all spent. They rested for a moment and Joan told them about the first Holy Knight.

"The first Holy Knight that has been recorded in history is Ferharth Dustmain. The Angel God gave him the Job class as a reward for his valiant deeds of saving their village at that time. He also is the only human who killed a demon without a job class. Interesting isn't it? He is a master of all weapons and wielded different conjured weapons. He battled together with his sworn friends who are Offensive Knight, one is Protector Knight, and last is a Priest. His friends all died in front of his eyes and he wept.

"He is strong but it is a hard-fought battle. Almost dying after he killed the demon who attacked their village. It was then after he was about to lose his life, he was healed by the God of Angels. The three job classes are all combined as per the request of his friends. Giving him the job class Holy Knight. It was the time too that the other job class were handed to the wielder. It was then, he assembled the others and fought the Demon lord of their lands.

"They fought the Demon lord but it escaped. It was then, they handed the job classes to many others and then made the Academy. They handed it to their family and generation to generation, they gave it to them. Hoping that they will be a guide to the next wielders and vanquish the evil in these lands," Joan told them.

"Wow master, you are knowledgeable! I hope you will join in the tournament too!" Sufia said to him.

"I won't join the tournament," Joan said to them.

"What? But master, no one can beat you if you will join!" Patricia shouted.

"I leave that battles to you new generations. I am a tired soul already and way past such endeavours. I will all support you and I hope you will all do your best. The sun is up, we need to go to the class right?" Joan said to them.

They were left shaken to his words. Others were having a hard time accepting it but the pain in their hearts subsided. They thought that he will be having more important things to do at the moment.

"Everyone, you must all get stronger. I am not joining as I have something to do. You must all do your best okay? I am rooting on you all. The best in Holy Knight has to be one of you all. Now let us tarry, the sin is up and we have to go to school," Joan said to them.

"Bye master! We will all make you proud!" They bowed their heads down and then they said their goodbyes.

Joan went to their class after binge eating in the school cafeteria. Sleeping once again in class and angering their homeroom teacher.

"Joan! Squat in the back! Now! How dare you sleep in my lessons! You must sweat yourself first to awaken your sleepy self. Thank me later after my class is finished," Sir Delmund said to him.

"Sir! I can't take it anymore!" Joan bellowed.

"Shut up! You deserve that! Now let us resume our class," Delmund said as he was holding a textbook.

"But sir!" Joan bellowed.
