Villain in a Fantasy World; I Level Up by Conquering Villainesses-Chapter 118: Level 30 Witch [3]

Despite the fact that he was the one who started the indoctrination, trying to make Theodore shed her old weak and cowardly identity for a warrior’s mindset, listening to her speech, Julian felt a chill run down his spine.

’What did I just create?’ He thought, but then he corrected himself.

’I didn’t create her,’ he realized. ’Trauma created her’.

Even Lilith who had seen so many things in this world and was a bonafide S Rank Fate Sovereign at the peak of her powers, she couldn’t help it as her eyes narrowed while listening to her speak with such conviction.

After Theodore was done speaking, the Demon and Vampire looked at the Wolfkin that now looked totally different from her previous self.

This was not just physically but also psychologically.

Silence reigned as they stared at her for a long time, scrutinizing her while the new Theodore boldly looked back at them without fear.

’She’s truly changed...’ Julian realized.

He broke the silence first as he turned his head to look at Lilith. "I remember you mention that the Warrior Class is another unique class, in what way?"

"It’s because they also change biological physiology," Lilith replied. "But unlike the Witch Class, they change genders from female to male".

"The Warrior Class is the opposite of the Witch Class".

"But unlike the Witch Class whose transformation is as early as Level 30 after the 2nd Class Awakening, a Warrior’s physiological change only occurs at Level 100 after the final Class Awakening, becoming a true Martial Sovereign".

"It is the Class representing masculinity".

Julian’s brain whirred as he thought for a few seconds, then he asked. "Is it possible to change Classes?"

Lilith hesitated for a few seconds before she answered. "Generally, it’s impossible because the clash of 2 different Classes causes qi instability".

"But at Level 100 as a Sovereign, a lot of things become possible as an Awakened, including Class Change".

"In history, 3 S Rank Sovereigns have been recorded to have changed their Class successfully. An Assassin became a Necromancer, a Witch became a Druid, and a Witch became a Warrior".

"To avoid qi instability, it’s a total change which abandons all the traits and abilities of the previous class to accommodate the abilities and traits of the new Class, including biological physiology".

That was what Julian wanted to hear as he immediately looked at Theodore and said. "It’s not over".

"If you give it your all and become an S Rank Sovereign under my guidance, you can switch Classes and regain your gender".

Unlike what he expected though, Theodore didn’t react much to the possibility as she simply said with a grin. "My priority is revenge".

Julian quietly stared at her for a few seconds, then he nodded.

He turned his head and looked at Lilith again. "Have other S Rank Sovereigns from other Classes not tried to change Classes?"

"No," Lilith shook her head. "But a lot of scholar Mages have been researching for years about the phenomenon of Class Change".

She smiled at him. "You also did this research for a time".

"According to what you told us then, you believe that certain Classes are connected and that’s the most important criteria for a Class Change".

"For example, even as an S Rank Sovereign, a Necromancer cannot become a Cleric. The change is too extreme and will cause instant qi instability, making an S Rank Sovereign to go mad and potentially turn into a mindless Qi Beast".

"In your theory, the Classes that are connected and are interchangeable are Mage-Warrior, Archer-Assassin, Assassin-Necromancer, Mage-Necromancer, and Druid-Witch".

"You believed that the Cleric and Illusionist Classes are unique and that they cannot be interchanged with any other Class".

"Is that so?" Julian rubbed his chin in deep thought.

After a few seconds, he nodded and looked at Theodore again. "Get ready. By nightfall, we shall embark on our mission".

"There’s no need to waste any more time".

"If you need anything like a weapon from the Armory or anything to empower yourself for the undertaking, meet Pandora to help you".

"Yes, Lord Zaratul". Theodore bowed.

Julian finally gestured at Lilith again. "Give the 2 other gifts to her and explain their uses".

Lilith handed the date-like fruit and the locket to Theodore and explained. "That is a Feral Date. It is one of the favorite fruits sought by Barbarians and Beastkin. Eating it increases aggression, bloodline purity, and boosts your qi".

"And this is the Beast Locket, it’s a unique Artifact that can only be used by Beastkin. Wearing it passively multiplies your EXP-gain".

"The locket becomes useless once you become a B Rank Ascended".

Theodore looked at the 2 things in her hands, then she wore the Beast Locket around her neck and threw the date-like fruit into her mouth.

She didn’t even bother to chew as like a snake she directly swallowed it.

She gave no damn about etiquette or acting like a girl.

Gulp!

Maybe the reaction was painless this time or maybe she just didn’t show it because throughout after eating the fruit, Theodore showed no change in her expression till it was over.

She was stoic throughout.

DING!

Class: Witch

Gender: Female

Race: Beastkin- (Wolfkin)

[Racial Traits & Abilities:]

~----~

Theodore just leveled up another 4 levels with a single fruit!

This meant that unlike Julian who leveled up only 7 times despite receiving more gift boosts than the Wolfkin, the Wolfkin’s growth still managed to dwarf his growth as she leveled up a whopping 12 times.

This was all the experimentation that Julian needed to confirm the potency of her unique talent.

Julian walked closer and patted the Wolfkin on the shoulder. "This time, you did well. Your reaction to the whole situation was perfect".

He looked her in the eyes. "You’ve earned my respect. I have high hopes for you, don’t disappoint me".

"Thank you My Lord". She bowed slightly.

Julian turned and left the room. As he did, his voice echoed in his wake.

"Get ready before nightfall..."

...

A few hours later, night came, covering the world in a veil of darkness as nocturnal creatures crawled out of their caves to hunt for survival.

That night, 2 people, a Demon and a Wolfkin snuck out of the castle.

No one in the outside world knew about Zaratul’s mission and within Dreadmoor, only 8 individuals knew what happened.

Julian’s aggressive quest for EXP began.

It was time to go feral.
