Chapter 1883: Choosing A New Subclass
After glancing at the Astral Board for a bit...
[List of Astral Guardians you can choose for your Subclass.]
[Guardian of the Cardinal Stars (Bonus To All Stats, Strengthens All Class Skills)] [Price]: [30.000.000 Score Points.]
[Chaos-Seeking Demonic Star (Overpowering Attack Power Bonus, Defense Ignoration, Destructive Performance)] [Price]: [25.000.000 Score Points.]
[Goat Mother Of Life And Protection (Greater Healing, Wards, and Barriers)] [Price]: [20.000.000 Score Points.]
[Tyrant of the Blood Sea (Strengthens Blood Element And Evolves It)] [Price]: [20.000.000 Score Points.]
[Neverendingly Curious Librarian (Grants Great Knowledge and Wisdom)] [Price]: [10.000.000 Score Points.]
I quickly decided to go for the most dangerous sounding of the bunch... But surely, the bastard only wants Influence or whatever, right? So I bet he won't be that annoying.
Let's hope.
Ding!
[You have chosen the Astral Guardian: {Chaos-Seeking Demonic Star}!]
[You have paid 25.000.000 Score Points.]
[Remaining Score Points: 5.000.000.]
FLAAASH!
The moment I made my choice, suddenly, the Astral Board exploded, expanding into a cosmos surrounding us.
Even Andromeda was surprised, glancing around in awe.
"I-I can't believe this..."
"Woah..."
The two of us were amazed.
It was as if we were now in between the stars themselves.
And in front of us, the stars rapidly began to converge into faint sillhoutes.
They took the form of the Astral Guardians?!
FLUOSH!
The first one resembled a small person covered on robes and a big academic hat of some sort. It had two glowing blue eyes, made of stars, and it carried on its hands a lot of books.
"Huh?"
The Demonic Star glared at me in disbelief, before the guardian disappeared, his long, astral cape waving, making him disappear behind it.
"Heh, so you're really interesting, huh?" the Demonic Star said. "I feed on the Influence caused by Chaos, so as long as you continue fighting, it should be enough. Bring me chaos,
and I shall reward you."
I couldn't speak, dammit!
For a moment there I kind of wanted to change sides.
This Demonic Star guy is really weird, he kind of reminds me of Orochi, but perhaps even
more monstrously powerful.
"I suppose it's time..." said the goat mother, smiling at me. "Be safe."
"Yes, be safe..." the Librarian agreed. "If Fate wills it, let's talk again."
The two disappeared, and the only one that remained was the Demonic Star.
"You're mine." He said.
He rushed towards me, his gigantic, crimson eye staring down at me.
He descended, rapidly clashing against us.
BOOOM!
And an explosion of cosmic flames engulfed me whole.
"Ah!"
Before I opened my eyes, realizing I was fine.
"Was it all in our mind?" I wondered.
"I believe so..." Andromeda was at my side, just as shocked. "It seems you've chosen... Quite
the Astral Guardian for your Subclass, Drake. I hope you don't regret this later... They cannot
be changed."
"D-Dammit... Sure, I mean, I won't..." I muttered. "Definitely won't!"
Ding!
[The Astral Guardian {Chaos-Seeking Demonic Star} glares at you.]
[He says that your Subclass is ready.]
