Just as Veronica finished checking her new Skills and appearance brought by her recent evolution, while slowly assessing what she had just witnessed when her mind was sent somewhere else resembling of ancient Greek mythology, she decided to check her available Job Options.
?
"Could I get a Job named Hades? That would be hilarious…"
[Jobs Available]
[Tartarus Executioner], [Abyssal Soul Demon Armor], [Acheron Ferrier], [Demon Beast Queen], [Undead Metallic Arachnid Matriarch], [Demonic Shadow Phantasmal Soul Queen], [Abyssal Phantasmal Soul Warrior], [Gods Nemesis], [Abyssal Living Armory], [Great Self-Body Blacksmith], [Kelsus' Fragment User], [Thunderous Armored Tyrant Empress], [Invoker of Accursed Graveyards], [Undying Abyssal Curse Caster], [Living Demonic Mechanical Undead], [Abyssal Soul Shadow Ruler], [Accursed Phantasmagoric Flying Train], [Abhorred Manipulator and Devourer of Emotions] (New!), [Pseudo Light Attribute Mage] (New!), [Hades] (New!), [Pseudo Death Attribute Mage] (New!)
"Yeah… I spoke too soon. So I really got a Hades Job! A-And… Pseudo Death Attribute Mage! And also Pseudo Light Attribute Mage! I've hit the lottery, Shade, Ozgeth!" said Veronica, raising her metallic arms as she frightened the spirit and the ghost.
"…What?! You really did got that Job?!" asked Shade in disbelief.
"My lady, I couldn't expect less!" said Ozgeth, proud of Veronica's achievements.
"Yes! And I got both…! No, all three of them! All there of the ones I imagined… They are actually there! Pseudo Light Attribute Mage, Pseudo Death Attribute Mage… a-and Hades to boot! Oh, and there is one about my recently acquired Kelsus Fragment… But no one cares about that one! …For now," said Veronica.
"A-Amazing… Unbelievable. You know I was actually joking? I've never thought that it could be possible for someone that has not been born with the affinity of an attribute to develop it into one of their own? This is insane… What if the rest of the world were to know this? People would be able to choose whatever Attribute they wanted, no one would be chained by their original attributes! As long as they had the spirits with them… They would be able to learn it! And through your ability, you could easily convince other Spirits to work for more people… T-This is a world-changing event!" proclaimed Shade.
"Indeed! A world-changing event!" said Ozgeth.
"Hahaha! …Maybe not? Don't overthink it, for now, Shade. I believe that what I am capable of doing might not be the same for other people, as I have the Samsara System and all…" said Veronica.
"O-Oh, right… Perhaps there could be another way for other people? Maybe with your assistance?" asked Shade.
"Yeah, but why are you so excited about it? You've always been quite uninterested in people…" said Veronica with a smug.
"W-Well, people can change! …Right? So what if I am… interested in other things now? I just found it amazing, that's all…!" said Shade with a bit of embarrassment, averting his gaze from Veronica's smug.
"I see, maybe my little Shade is shaping himself to become a librarian? Perhaps an investigator? A scientist? You like to investigate the phenomena of the world, right? You're a very interesting Spirit, I see, I see…" said Veronica while rubbing her phantasmal chin, Ozgeth was a bit confused about what was currently happening.
Aqua was not in the room as she was too big now, and Charlotte had her own room, so he was alone with Veronica and Shade, and they would often have these strange interactions where he simply lost himself.
"That's… Forget it, just change Jobs already, will you?" said Shade.
"My lady, which one will you pick first? I would recommend you, against me and Shade, to choose the Pseudo Death Attribute Mage Job, as it is more important in my opinion," said Ozgeth.
"Hm, that's right, you should pick that one, Death Magic is very rare, right? You could finally become an official mage of it instead of simply using spells of it in skills which you acquired through odd events," said Shade.
"You two are right… But I have an itch, I believe there are more Jobs I can take before that one…" said Veronica, glancing at her available Jobs.
"Another Job?" asked Shade.
"But wouldn't you need to level it up first? Shouldn't you pick the one that benefits you now?" asked Ozgeth.
"Yeah, both of you are right! But I guess you do not remember or something, but through this System, it is possible to level up certain Jobs instantly!" said Veronica.
"Instantly? Oh… I think I remember something about it," said Shade.
"Is that so, my lady?!" asked Ozgeth.
"Indeed, this Samsara System works differently or something. Whenever I get rather good at something that encompasses a Job, I can use that proficiency to instantly level it up! So I often just leave Jobs that I do not care about to rest for a few weeks until I get fairly good at the thing the Job wanted me to train, and then I instantly max it! Though through this way, I get fewer Stats than if I had leveled it up in another manner because I can just constantly do it, it is surprisingly good nonetheless," said Veronica.
"Amazing! Another thing that one would expect from someone so grand as you, my lady!" said Ozgeth.
"Well that sounds like a pretty big cheat!" said Shade.
"Hehe, I need it anyway, if I want to beat the crap out of Bestellen, I have to grow fast, right?" said Veronica.
"I suppose so, although that is still very far from our present," said Shade.
"Anyways, my lady, do not distract yourself anymore and decide your Job!" said Ozgeth.
"True… Hm, this one should be, I believe…" said Veronica, picking a certain Job from within her vast list.
Ding!
[You changed Jobs to [Great Self-Body Blacksmith]!]
[The Levels of the [Alchemy; Level 4], [Crafting; Level 4], [Blacksmithing; Level 4], [Engineering: Level 4], [Construction: Level 4], [Tailorship: Level 2], [Architecture: Level 4], and [Assembly: Level 2] Skills!]

[The [Assembly: Level 3] Skill has been integrated into the [Armor Group Assembly: Level 1] Skill!]

[Armor Group Assembly: Level 2/10]
The power to control the user's armor body in a group with perfect accuracy, giving the ability to assembly itself and separating itself at will.
This Skill grants the capacity of assembling one's metallic body with great accuracy, giving the ability to increase one's size and more.
"Oh? I got something pretty cool. One of my Level 10 Skills awakened, and now it's named Armor Group Assembly… Will it let me assemble my armor body? Perhaps I am even closer to becoming a full-fledged mech warrior!" said Veronica with happiness in her phantasmal crimson eyes.
And as she began to speak, she immediately generated a hammer from within her metallic body, enhancing it with her Blacksmithing Skill, she started to hit herself with it, enhancing and 'forging' herself through such a strange method.
"Interesting…" said Shade.
"My lady, is it working?" asked Ozgeth.
"Indeed it is!" said Veronica, as her body turned a bit red as she used Blacksmithing on herself.
Ding!

"Hm, it's done! Now that I am satisfied, what should I pick now? Hm… Perhaps just go with what I wanted originally? Yeah, I suppose it is for the best…" said Veronica, as she did not want to gamble anymore by seeing if it was possible to max the level of Jobs, she immediately went for the Job she wanted from the beginning!
Ding!
[You changed Jobs to [Pseudo Death Attribute Mage]!]
[You acquired the [Limited Death Attribute Magic: Level 1] Skill!]
[The Levels of the [Limited Death Attribute Magic: Level 1], [Death Attribute Charm; Level 9], [Golem Transmutation; Level 8], [Soul Binding; Level 8], and [Dominate Created Undead; Level 8] Skills have increased!]
[Limited Death Attribute Magic: Level 2/10]
A Skill acquired by someone not born with a Death Attribute Affinity who had slowly acquired one through different means, such as showering oneself with Death Attribute Mana, changing the shape of one's soul to be closer with Death, amongst many other things.
It is not yet the complete magic skill, and it possesses a limited set of spells related to the previous methods that the user used to conjure Death Attribute Magic. New Spells can be created, but the complexity of their creation is greater and more taxing.
"I really did got it now!" said Veronica with happiness clearly showing itself within her scarlet eyes, the power of Death Magic was now within her own soul and power, she was now able to wield it as it was! …Although it was a Limited-type of magic.
"However, I feel like if I max the level of this… I should be more than capable of getting the true, Death Attribute Magic! There is amazing news, I gotta tell Ervas!" said Veronica, as she used her connection with Ervas soul to communicate the news, only to receive more news from his part, such as his acquisition of Limited Life Attribute Magic, surprising her greatly.
