Mercenary System: I can increase innate potential !-Chapter 112: Liam, the fallen genius

Ding!

[Conditions have been met!]

[Class quest unlocked!]

"What?"

"A class quest?"

Maxime had never heard of one.

But the notifications would answer his questions.

Ding!

[To answer the host’s questions, you had access to class evolution thanks to your level 2 authority]

"I didn’t think I’d get this kind of advantage thanks to that."

Maxime was genuinely surprised; he’d thought the authority level would give him exclusive information when the opportunity came. But he would never have doubted that level 2 authority would have opportunities linked to it!

[Quest: "Evolve the Swordsman Class" ]

Description: Congratulations on unlocking your first class quest. If successful, this quest will allow you to upgrade your class!

Reward: change the "Swordsman" class to a higher-quality class.

Objective:

- Swordsmanship at level 3 (0/1)

- Breathing method (0/1)

- Awaken vital seed (0/1)

"Everything suggests that the future class will have a link with knights."

"Which makes a certain amount of sense, since I awakened the low-level knight talent first, and then it was gradually upgraded."

Not everyone got the knight talent when they raised their swordsman class level, it all depended on chance. Your next journey awaits at novelbuddy

In the world of Eternity, to obtain uncommon, rare or superior classes, conditions had to be met.

Some great families knew about these conditions and kept them to themselves in order to maintain their power in the real world.

Because, of course, there were many ways to improve a class, and increasing the level of authority was one of the hardest of them all.

For his part, Maxime had just acquired the requirements to awaken the knight class or a similar class.

He didn’t yet know the quality of this class, but it was undoubtedly far superior to the swordsman class.

Above all, it would have great potential.

As far as Maxime knew, knights possessed many formidable combat techniques and, above all, there were many applications of the powers linked to the vital seed.

If Maxime were to unlock a class that could evolve to the very end of a knight’s potential, then this class would undoubtedly be exceptional.

In order, there were apprentice knights, knights, great knights and epic knights.

Each kingdom was much stronger than the last.

So if Maxime could become an epic knight thanks to this future new class, he could already be known as a great power both in the world of Eternity and in the real world.

But he didn’t get too excited; nothing was safe and easy in the world of Eternity.

What’s more, the requirements were not simple.

Handling the sword would take a few weeks or even less, but that wasn’t the case for the other two conditions.

The easiest way to obtain a breathing method was to join the ranks of a nobleman.

But nobles were always very careful about the origins of the people they recruited.

For them, it was better for people to have less talent but be truly loyal than the other way around.

So, for players who appeared out of nowhere, it was really complicated to gain a nobleman’s trust.

Obtaining a breathing method was therefore extremely complicated even when swearing loyalty to a nobleman.

And unfortunately, Henry and Ultia couldn’t teach him because they didn’t know enough about the book and the human body.

Generally speaking, unless you had a teacher at the level of grand knight or above, it was impossible to learn a breathing method without the book detailing the technique.

Quite simply, to develop extraordinary powers required extraordinary knowledge.

As for the3rd condition, even if Maxime obtained a breathing method, it was still very complicated to awaken the vital seed.

The simplest and least dangerous way to awaken it was to use a secret potion.

But this secret potion cost at least 10,000 gold coins, and there was no market for it.

For nobles, this wasn’t a big deal - even barons usually managed to obtain a potion one way or another after a few years of research and saving.

But for non-noble individuals like Maximus, it was much more difficult.

So only the most primitive and brutal method was possible: to awaken her through a life-and-death struggle once he had mastered a breathing method.

So Maxime didn’t concentrate on this quest for the moment.

He would wait for the right opportunity.

Instead, he looked at his balance with a happy yet bitter smile.

[Current balance: 1050 gold coins].

Happy because he’d be able to upgrade his Nox Limit talent, and bitter because he’d only have 50 gold coins left in the system.

Of course, he didn’t stay bitter for long, as he still had 325 gold coins in front of him, but this money was intended for the mercenaries to reward them and buy or repair their equipment.

[The conditions have been met, the "Nox Limit" talent will be upgraded].

Immediately, a violet-black light escaped from the system, enveloping his body. A wave of dark power invaded his muscles, his mind, even his perceptions. It was as if a raging force now slept inside him, ready to explode at any moment.

And it wasn’t just him; all mercenaries, whatever they did, encountered a very strange phenomenon.

Whether it was Andrew practicing his swordplay, Romuald sharpening his sword, Henry and Ultia chatting, they all felt a strange wave of energy.

This was also the case in the village of Plouta, where all the new recruits with 2 and 3-star potential were training.

That day, a strange transformation disrupted their daily lives.

All the mercenaries felt a change in the depths of their souls, as if the chains that had imprisoned them until now were disappearing.

In a corner of the village, Liam, a frail but ambitious young man, was clumsily practicing with a wooden sword. He was sweating profusely, his hesitant strokes hitting a worn dummy limply.

"I’m going to prove to them all, that not only will I be a mighty mercenary, but I’ll be one of the best!"

"Even Charles won’t be much stronger than me!"

Charles, among the new recruits, was a legend.

After all, he was one of the 20 elites brought by the chief to go south, and he was also the only new recruit to ever go there.

Former mercenaries with little potential were jealous of him, but there was nothing anyone could do about it.

For his part, Liam was one of 3 mercenaries with 3-star potential recently recruited by Maxime, the other two coming from the village of Hénor while he came from Plouta.

So, of the 75 mercenaries recruited by Maxime before leaving, he was one of the top 3 best recruits.

Or at least it was supposed to be.

Somehow, although he had 3-star potential, his rate of progression was no faster than that of most 2-star potentials.

Even now, his strength was still below that of an elite soldier, while the other two mercenaries with 3-star potential were not far from reaching the stage of apprentice knight.

Both were now being trained by Killian himself, the highly successful apprentice knight with the highest authority in the village of Plouta.

As a result, he was often mocked and insulted as a waste of his own talent and that of the mercenary leader, Maxime.

Yet at first, everyone respected him, and he was supposed to be the figure representing the village of Plouta against the 2 geniuses from the village of Hénor.

But with his strength, not only did he not become this figure, but he was also ostracized by the other mercenaries and even the villagers of Plouta.

Suddenly, he felt an icy chill run up his spine.

"What the..." he murmured, dropping his weapon.

A pale light surrounded him, like a flickering spectral flame.

He watched, wide-eyed, as this magnificent light surrounded him.

After a moment, he felt he could instinctively control this new power.

So he channeled this energy, and in one fell swoop they disappeared.

But Liam knew they were still there, only this time they were under his control.

He picked up his sword, and this time, when he struck the dummy, the weapon passed through the dummy.

But it went through the dummy without cutting it.

"What the hell!?"

It was as if his weapon had become something immaterial.

Simultaneously, the god Nox opened his eyes once more.

As if they could see through the space around him as well as millions of light years, he looked directly at Maxime.

"Hmmf, at least he did well to choose my talent, if he’d chosen Viviana’s talent, I wouldn’t have had any hope for him at all."

Then he closed his eyes again.

As these events happened one after the other without Maxime being aware of it, new notifications appeared.

[Congratulations!]

[The Nox Limit talent has been successfully upgraded to level 2!]

[Existing effects have been strengthened!]

[A new effect has been added!]
