Chapter 29: Class evolution
It had been one hour since the announcement of the second quest, and as Coby had mentioned, this is going to be a hell of a journey, from the looks of it.
Dhruv had lost count of how many times he had opened the quest window, looking at the slowly ticking clock.
[Main Quest #02- Survive the Onslaught]
Description: After getting the role you excel in, Now is the time to use your role and survive the onslaught of monsters that will come out of the existing cracks in the near future.
Clear condition: Survive for three days.
Time limit: 3 Days
Reward: According to your performance.
Failure: .... ]
[Time left before the start of the second quest: 00:57:46]
So, according to the description of the quest, the monsters will pour out of the cracks. That means there must be two such cracks on this island; one that was in my room and another that the warden had found.
This time, the cosmos was generous enough to give us some time for preparation, which I welcomed with open hands as I myself had some things to prepare.
Despite the unrealness, it was true that in the next hour, the horror would begin—not that I am afraid of it or anything—it was just quite... fascinating. I wasn't afraid because of my pride, of course. This time, I've been preparing quite well. As for the past hour, I've been investing my coins slowly into my stats, increasing them bit by bit.
Why slowly-slowly? You would ask. And the answer was simple because I cannot increase my stats more than five levels at a time. And this was the exact reason why, despite having coins, I couldn't upgrade my stats while fighting the warden.
I cannot increase my stats, saying it would be unfair... as It's not blocking or stopping me from investing in it, but the reason was that suddenly increasing stats will put quite a burden on the body and it would do more harm than good. This I had learned the hard way.
One thing I noticed when investing my coins is that I can't give coins to the trio, as due to being monsters, they can't use coins for upgrading their stats... Forget about upgrading their stats; they can't use coins for anything. And that's why they don't even have access to the cosmic store for themselves. Reêad latest novels at novelhall.com
These are the options available for your class evolution

So, this time I have seven options. Compared to the six I got last time, it wasn't that much of an improvement, but that really wasn't the case. Because, this time, I got five uncommon level classes compared to the three I got last time.
[Spearman: A spearman is a skilled warrior who specializes in the art of combat with a spear. They possess exceptional proficiency in handling this versatile weapon, both for thrusting and throwing. Spear-men are known for their ability to maintain distance, deliver precise strikes, and provide effective defense against adversaries.

[Hunter:A hunter is a highly skilled individual who specializes in tracking and eliminating targets. With extensive knowledge of weapons, camouflage, and tracking techniques, they excel at locating and dispatching their prey with lethal precision.
The skills <Locate Prey> and <Track> are given, along with a strength bonus of 5.]
As expected, these two were the same as the last time, so I skipped over them without much thought.
Looking at the name of the third option, a frown appeared on my face... but when my gaze got to its description, a smile—creepy— appeared on my face.
