Chapter 246 246 - Class?
"Well it wasn't too hard," responded Aiden simply telling the truth as it really wasn't that hard.
He had only participated in three trials and he was already this powerful, only the future would be able to tell how much stronger he would get in the trials that were to come.
He also had so many things to do after finishing this talk. The first would be to either jump in another trial or use his [Otherwordly Teleportation], his new system function.
There were other things for him to do, but to do those Aiden would still need strength, there was no other choice.
However, Melinda who just heard Aiden's answer didn't seem to be of the same opinion as she seemed mad almost angry at Aiden.
"It wasn't too hard? Do you even know how many people reach your level of strength? Do you know how many people simply give up or lose everything while challenging the trials?" she said her tone getting louder and louder which was starting to put a lot of pressure on Aiden.
Aiden hearing all of this couldn't help but be surprised as he had obviously not thought of all those things, however, he had simply said the truth. It really hadn't been that bad.
"Well, I don't know about them, but you asked about me and how I became strong and I'm telling you that it wasn't that hard, sorry if it upsets you," uttered Aiden, making sure that he wouldn't be too rough with her.
He wasn't sure what led to such a strong reaction out of her, but he wasn't lying sure he had trained hard, but overall it really hadn't been that bad.
Sure, he had quite a big advantage with his past as an assassin, but it was still not that much of a difference except for the three skills that he started with.
"Then how did it go, what was your second trial like?" asked Melinda as she already knew what he had done in the third one and the first one was basically a tutorial, so Melinda wasn't that interested in it if she were honest.
However, hearing that question, a little bit of sweat started to appear on Aiden's face as he knew that it was a touchy subject and a big one at that since it was related to one of his other secrets, the fact that he didn't even hold a class.
Aiden had to admit that he hadn't gotten any news about getting access to other restricted class skills in a long time. He wanted to have skills which belonged to other classes, but it seemed that it wasn't meant to be as the system wasn't offering anything anymore.
Well, it wasn't like he had gotten a lot of opportunities to do so, with the tournament and his training, but still, he remembered how it had first happened, his second trial how he had gotten summoned to it.
And having all those memories flow back into his mind, Aiden couldn't help but doubt about telling Melinda.
Thinking about it, the best option right now was to probably keep things to himself as he didn't want to reveal another secret to Melinda like that, especially since it was related to the system.
Aiden didn't what sort of knowledge she had which is why he decided to be careful about what he revealed when concerning the system.
Who knows? Maybe not having a class wasn't something that was unique and others before Aiden had such a situation.
There were so many things that Aiden ignored and he didn't want to risk it right now.
Who knew if he said something confidential just like last time with the hidden body potential, he remembered the expression on Melinda's face and it hadn't been a nice one.
"My second trial, it went well. I had to incarnate an assassin and defeat the enemy kingdom," said Aiden, not giving her too much detail.
"An assassin, huh? You were lucky since that's pretty much your class, right?" she asked, actually wondering what class Aiden was holding.
She had, after all, never asked him as she truly believed that he was an assassin from how he moved and acted in general, it simply seemed the obvious choice.
'Why isn't he talking? Was that really such a complicated question?' thought Melinda, unsure why Aiden was silent over such a question.
All he had to answer was a simple and firm "Yes."
However, it seemed that Aiden had somewhat frozen when asked this question as he believed that Melinda was getting closer to another one of his secrets.
Nonetheless, his frozen state wasn't long at all as he only stayed in place for a second or two before opening his mouth once again.
"Yes, I really was, ahaha," said Aiden as he started laughing quite awkwardly which was immediately picked up by Melinda.
"Are you okay? Why are you acting like that?" she asked, seeing that he wasn't in the best of states.
Then, not wanting to answer that question, Aiden changed the subject, however, how he had done wasn't subtle at all and it was quite apparent that he wasn't comfortable with that subject which made Melinda even more curious.
'Just what's his class?' thought Melinda, kind of guessing that it wasn't an assassin from Aiden's reaction.
"I think it's my turn to ask questions, right?" he said, changing the subject instantly.
He knew that if it continued on that path he would be revealing that he didn't have a class, well he wouldn't reveal it, but from his mannerism, Melinda would have been able to guess.
'Well, I guess I won't press him, I will discover what it is at one point either way,' thought Melinda as she knew that it would at one point become known information for everyone in the world since Aiden was so talented and known.
Well, he was known under his nickname but it was still him under that mask.
Then, it was time for Aiden to ask a question and he decided to ask the same question as he had done previously when he had first met her.
