22 – World 11. Career Choice (4)
-You have a surprisingly unique timeline. Equal time for everyone, but not for you. I’ve used that timeline several times.
-You deserve to be a ‘time ruler (☆☆☆☆☆)’.
– I’ll give you that power if you want.
Listening to the calm narration, Carina recalled the vision she had just seen.
In the illusion, he constantly fought by using time to accelerate his body or rewind physical time to heal his wounds.
It was a fighting power that could not be compared to the ‘silent test (☆☆☆☆)’ selected in the previous regression.
‘But I thought there was only one 5-star job.’
Karina had never opened all jobs before.
There were many reasons, but the most representative reason was that, as a latecomer, it was impossible to stick to job openings forever.
So I compromised on a 4-star job.
But now that all jobs are open.
Since he was a regressor, he thought he might have achieved some achievements in the future, but the result was only one 5-star job.
Even time rulers were achievements of the past and present timelines, not the future.
‘It’s probably an achievement that came about because of my return.’
Because he regressed, a unique timeline was created, which was replaced by achievements.
In a way, the fact that he returned was also a recognition of his achievements.
‘Is there no future where I’m active?’
Seeing as there were no other 5-star jobs, it seemed that there was no future in which he would be active as a hero of mankind.
Karina, who barely admitted that fact, chose the job with a small sigh.
“I will choose this job.”
[That’s a good choice.]
Also, Mernes responded kindly to Karina’s choice.
It was only natural that a new 5-star job to be active on this continent had appeared.
Then, the golden light mass Karina chose slowly entered her body.

Dig!—
[Now that it has been applied, check it out.]
Following Mernes’ words, Karina opened the status window and checked the job section.
【① Name: Karina】
【② Job: Time Ruler (☆☆☆☆☆)】(NEW!)
【③ Job Level (1)】(↑1UP)
【④ Protection Level (0)】
【⑤ Body Level (1)】
1 level raised with job selection.
Karina went straight to the next one.
“Show your professional skills.”
Since the job level rose by 1, the ability could also be selected.
[Slowly examine and decide.]
Eventually, in front of Karina, a golden light symbolizing the five stars soared upward and was embroidered with countless skills like a huge constellation.
And at the starting point of the skill center, there were only three skills.
[Time Swordsmanship] (LV 1) (☆)
└ A swordsmanship that uses the flow of time.
└ If you concentrate, you can perceive the passage of time 10% slower.
[Body acceleration] (LV 1) (☆)
└ A skill that speeds up your own time.
└ When used, your body speed doubles.
[Body Regression] (LV 1) (☆)
└ A skill that turns back one’s body time.
└ When used, you can return to your physical state from 1 second ago.
‘Wow.’
Karina looked at those three skills and admired them.
‘Still, 5 stars are 5 stars.’
It was ridiculously good from the start.
To the extent that it is incomparable to the 4-star silence test.
Here, if you increase the number of stars next to the skill by raising the job level more, there is an additional effect.
‘What other skills are there?’
Because the good skills were listed from the beginning, Karina, who became curious about the skills afterward, turned her head and looked at them one by one.
There were many exceptional skills that did not disappoint.
[Elongated time] (LV 1) (☆)
└ A skill that slows down the time of everything around you.
└ When used, everything within 10 meters is slowed by 20%.
It seemed that even the flying magic and arrows would slow down.
[Returning Hourglass] (LV 1) (☆)
└ A skill that summons an hourglass that slowly reverses time.
└ When holding the hourglass, physical time flows backward for 5 seconds.
This skill seemed like someone else could hold an hourglass as well.
[Give Time Acceleration] (LV 1) (☆)
└ Technology that accelerates the time of an object.
└ When used, objects move 20% faster for 5 seconds.
It seemed like it could be used for cannons or for throwing weapons.
‘Although I can’t learn it right away.’
As it is a skill tree, prerequisites were required.
In the case of the last ‘give time acceleration’, the condition is.
[Condition: Acceleration skill level 30. 10 stars.]
It was like this.
Even if the skill level goes up the more you use it, the number of stars has no choice but to raise the job level unconditionally.
To put it simply, granting time acceleration meant that the job level had to be at least level 10 to take it.
In any case, Lee Sung-min and Ren might be waiting outside.
Karina turned her eyes back to the skill at the starting point.
[Time Fencing]
[body acceleration]
[Body Regression]
‘The first thing I need here is…’
There is only one.
“I will learn body acceleration.”
[I respect your will.]
Then, the body acceleration part of the skill tree was equipped with a clear light.
acquisition was successful.
It was also a decision made by the judge that the only way to beat a monster from level 1 was body acceleration.
Along with that, Mernes’ voice came again.
[But the man in your party is really interesting.]
‘yes?’
Karina felt suspicious for a moment.
It was because it was the first time that Mernes was talking about someone else in this space.
“Are you Seongmin Lee?”
[yes. It seemed that the man’s influence on the continent would be insignificant.]
It was Karina who thought Lee Sung-min would not have gotten a 5-star job.
‘Well, it even cleared the fog of death.’
I’m not just talking about getting rid of the fog of death.
It means you have enough skills.
It was clear that if he had that ability, it would have been replaced with an achievement no matter what he did.
[Go now. The two of them are waiting outside.]
“Yes.”
Karina, who had even acquired a 5-star job and skills, turned around and came out of the blue sphere she came in at first.
Inside the old temple they came out of, they could see Lee Sung-min and Ren already out and waiting.
* * *
The job I chose was ‘Warlord’.
I chose Warlord because I thought that I would lack my own ability as a new water contractor, and it was possible to replace it with another ability.
And when you select Warlord, Mernes opens the skill tree and asks you to select one of the skills at the starting point.
[Warlord’s Swordsmanship]
[Command of the Warlord]
[Summon of the Warlord]
swordsmanship, command, summoning.
Swordsmanship was an ability that increased stats by up to 10% depending on the number of opponents.
Command was the ability to grant minor effects to anyone I perceived as an ally.
Summoning was the ability to summon human soldiers made of blue light as seen in the vision.
The ability I chose here is…
‘View the status window.’
【① Name: Seongmin Lee】
【② Job: Warlord (☆☆☆☆☆)】(NEW!)
【③ Job Level (1)】
└ Summon Warlord (LV 1) (☆) (NEW!)
【④ Protection Level (0)】
【⑤ Body Level (1)】
It was a summons.
First of all, it was because the most useful skill was summoning.
[Summon of the Warlord] (LV 1) (☆)
└ A skill to summon soldiers under one’s command.
└ When used, summons a soldier with a body level of 1 per 10 mana.
My current mana is 781.
That means you can summon 78 soldiers.
The phrase “body level 1” bothered me, but I believed I could raise it.
‘If I work hard, I’ll have a useful combat power.’
As I waited thinking about it, I could see Ren coming out through the blue sphere just in time.
“Ah, Seongmin Lee…?”
huh?
It was Ren who was calling me strangely, probably because Karina had instructed him to attend.
I shook my head to mean that there was no need for that and corrected the title first.
“Don’t do that, just, um… call me Mister.”
“Are you uncle?”
I thought about it for a moment, but considering my age and Ren’s appearance, there was nothing strange about it.
Having made that decision, I next asked Ren what job he had chosen.
“What is your job?”
“I chose a 4-star storm axe.”
“Four stars?”
“There were no five stars. There were only two 4 stars. Storm Ax and Blood Chaser.”
As Hayden said, it didn’t seem like he could get a 5-star job even if he selected all the light masses.
It was nothing new since he said that he had to perform at that level in the time zones of the past, present, and future.
“Yeah, good job.”
By the way, it’s a storm axe (☆☆☆☆).
Should I give you an ax item?
While thinking about it, I finally saw Karina coming out.
“Have you been waiting long? Sorry for being late.”
Well.
Here…
“It’s okay, don’t worry about it.”
When he answered indifferently, Karina nodded with a satisfied face.
“Looks like you’re getting used to it little by little. Oh, what’s your job?”
“Five stars. Warlords.”
Karina was more interested in the word warlord after expecting up to 5 stars.
“A warlord? What kind of job is that?”
“A job that summons troops and fights.”
“It seems to be a summoning type. Still, it’s five stars, so it won’t be normal.”
“What is your job?”
Conversely, when I asked Karina what her job was, she answered right away.
“I am the ruler of time. It’s a job where you can use time-related skills.”
Is it because of regression?
Speaking of time, I naturally thought of regression.
“You are right.”
“…”
At that time, Karina said that I was right.
There was no way I could see his face through the helmet, so how did he know?
Anyway, after answering me, Karina turned her head and asked about Ren’s job.
“Ren, what is your job?”
“It’s a four-star storm axe.”
“Four stars aside… an ax?”
“Yes. An axe.”
At the word axe, Karina made a strange expression.
Apparently, he knew Ren before the regression.
‘Is the job of Ren then and now Ren different?’
But I thought it might be.
The future must have changed dramatically because I was involved in the first place.
Moreover, since all jobs were open this time, there was little chance of choosing the same job as before.
Karina nodded as if she understood that part and said to me.
“I am going to get out of here now. There are not just one or two things to do.”
