Chapter 249 249 - Class
She was after all one of the strongest people in this world which was based on what she had previously not that impressive if some race named, the Lumithars had been able to create the system that they were currently using.
"So, Aiden," she said, the tone of her voice becoming extremely serious as she looked right into Aiden's eyes in a threatening manner. "What class did you get when you awakened two or three months ago?"
She knew based on his earlier reaction that this must be a big deal as he kept trying his best to dodge this question.
He knew that he couldn't really hide anything from Melinda since she could basically do whatever she wanted to him which was why whenever she had brought up the subject, he tried to talk about something else in the hopes that she would forget.
However, at last, it seemed that it wasn't the case and that Aiden was essentially doomed to answer her yet another question.
"My class..." Aiden said, sounding extremely hesitant.
However, as much as he wanted to keep that answer for himself, he knew that Melinda wanted to know and that she would be putting pressure on him to respond and it's not like giving her that answer would change his life, Maelis knew about it too.
"Actually, a more accurate question would be, why is it that I don't have a class," Aiden uttered looking at Melinda's face wanting to see her reaction.
However, looking at it, it seemed that there were two options. Either she hadn't understood his response which would be surprising since it was so clear what his response meant or she was too stunned to speak.
If Aiden had to bet on one of the two, it would be the second option.
Then, a few seconds later, it seemed that she was back as she finally opened her mouth, saying something back.
"You have no class?" she mumbled, slowly word by word.
It seemed that this information was simply too much for her to take in as things were starting to pile up.
Everything about the young man was remotely normal which was extremely annoying to deal with.
Everything that she thought she knew about the awakened world started to change every time she learned something new about him.
"God, can't you have at least one thing that's normal," she exclaimed out of nowhere, clearly frustrated over this matter.
Hearing her say that out of nowhere, a thought appeared inside Aiden's mind.
'Is she jealous of me and my talent?'
That was the best hypothesis as to why she would be currently having such a huge reaction to what he had just said.
It made sense for her to be shocked since it was probably the first time she had seen someone without a class, however, looking at her overall movement, it was certainly weird.
"Then, what about the skills which are restricted to some classes for example, Enchantress, how do you deal with it?" asked Melinda, trying to anticipate what he would say.
However, she quickly gave up doing so as she realized something which actually put a smile on her beautiful face.
'Wait not having a class is actually not that great, actually, it's probably an inconvenient for him, right,' she thought with a big smile on her face.
It seemed that knowing that this wasn't a good thing made Melinda find joy in herself which is certainly quite weird.
Shouldn't she be happy that Aiden was having so many good things happen to him, why did she need to be jealous of him?
Then, Aiden who heard that question was the one who had a smile on his face.
"I don't think I said that you could ask other questions," Aiden responded, as he didn't want to tell her about his interactions with the system as he wasn't sure what she would have said.
Melinda hearing that was somewhat angry as she knew that he was right, however, what made her truly angry was that Aiden was clearly not taking her seriously enough.
Who did he think he was, acting in such a disrespectful way to Melinda, one of the strongest to exist?
He should scared right now, not confident like he was currently.
After all, her presence should be enough to make him extremely scared.
"Just answer me," she responded, frustrated.
It had been a long time since anyone had refused something that she had asked and she hadn't expected the one to do so, to be Aiden someone who had only recently completed his third trial.
If she had to guess who would have refused something that she had asked, her bet would have been on Sylas since the two of them basically hated one another.
However, never in a million years would she have expected such a weak person to act so brazenly in front of her.
'Should I answer or not?' He thought, seeing that she had only said those words, not showing off any of her pressure yet.
However, thinking about it a little more, he realized that she was the one who was in control of this conversation and she had also revealed more information than necessary earlier.
So, thinking about those things, he realized that maybe it wouldn't be so bad to tell her about what happened.
He knew that she was a lot more knowledgeable than Maelis, so maybe she would be able to give him some tips regarding the system since she even knew of the people who were behind it.
"I can access skills that are restricted to some classes, however, that function is, at the moment, limited to Assassin-Related Skills. I can't learn skills apart from that."
'Then, that's probably why he looks so much like an assassin,' Melinda thought, realizing that what he had just made a lot of sense.
However, there was still something that was bugging her, why was it only Assassin-Related skills?
Couldn't it be other skills, what happened for it to be only Assassin-Related Skills?
