Chapter 199: Blood Knight
"Are you planning on learning one?"
Sindri had her chin on his shoulder, staring at the two cards that he was holding. She had initially only been slightly interested, but after Geth explained the bigger picture, he had her undivided attention.
'Being able to choose your Skill path before spending SP? How many resources would it take for him to achieve that for every Skill?'
Geth's brows were furrowed as he studied the two cards in his hand.
'He says he's doing it for himself... but is that really true?'
She just couldn't get a read on the man.
Sindri had heard directly from Blaze, Zolis, and Geth that he only did things if they furthered his own interests. But, it seemed that so many of these things benefited others more than him.
The more she was around him, the more she found herself appreciating him.
It wasn't just him. Even Zolis had her own quirks that she found endearing.
'I shouldn't even think about it right now. He's working, and I'll just distract him.'
Sindri crawled over to the piles of cards and looked for anything that would help her as a tank.
Things became challenging after the first Class change. For the first 24 Levels, it was possible to learn any Skill if you had the card for it!
After choosing the Knight Class, it was only possible for her to use Skill Cards that were marked for tank or melee Classes.
She would have ignored the Class choice completely if she'd known beforehand.
'Who am I kidding? I'd be dead if I didn't choose a Class.'
Even though it was bothersome, they had dealt with it. But now, things were different.
She didn't have many Skills to begin with, a couple of blocking Skills and an aggro Skill for defending. Then, she'd learned the Slash Skill just for counter-attacking enemies.
Outside of those four, she had learned one from each Class upgrade.
One allowed her to heal for 20% of her HP and doubled her Defense for ten minutes. It had a cooldown of six hours.
Once she unlocked her new Class, Blood Knight, she found that learning some Mage Skills was also possible.
He looked over her curves once more before activating the Transmutation Table and creating more healing cards.
"Hmph."
Sindri's face flushed red once again. She couldn't remember the last time she'd been both this embarrassed and aroused at the same time.
Looking at the position she was in didn't help. She was practically bent over like a dog in front of him!
'Ugh! Why don't I ever think before I do things?'
It was too late to worry about it now. She looked at the descriptions of the two cards before her.
