“Family… Demon Hunter… Professional Path… Transcendent…”
In the bedroom, Su Lu sat on a chair, holding in his hands the black paper that recorded the ‘Ritual of Misfortune’, various thoughts flashing through his mind.
[XP+IOO]
As he read, a wave of experience points emerged.
“In the past… I gained 50 experience points from the skill book page of [Creation of Dead Princess], this ritual of misfortune is clearly more advanced!”
Su Lu murmured to himself, glancing at his attribute column:
Name: [Su Lu Pottery]
Profession: [None]
Professional Rank: [o]
Title: [None]
Strength: [1.6], Agility: [1.3], Constitution: [1.1], Spirit: [1.6]

Passive: [Common Hebrew LV3], [Basic Physics LV4], [Demon Hunting
Knowledge LVI], [Ancient Hebrew LV2]
XP: [110
As he continued to read, a prompt box popped up:
[Ding! Detected second-order Profession information – Master of Misfortun, the precondition for taking office requires first-order occupation: Apprentice, and the spirit requirement is 2.5!… Condition not met! Can’t take office!]
“As expected, one can’t just skip tiers! Even if I could, even though I meet the hard requirements, I don’t have enough experience…”
Su Lu quickly made his calculations.
If you want to become a professional, you must first obtain a first-level profession.
At present, the only complete inheritance he could access was [Demon
Hunter]! Of course… He would definitely decline something as weird as the idealistic demon.
Aside from that, there was Catherine’s way, which was basically impossible now.
The remaining last resort is to join either the Goddess Church or the Federation to earn corresponding rewards.
“However… I don’t want to give up my faith nor do I want to become a special agent!”
While Su Lu himself was an atheist, in this world where true gods exist, he dared not take any action to deceive the divine.
As for working for the Federation?
He thought about it, then quickly shook his head.
Although the federal government has great power and certainly controls many supernatural professional path systems, the constraints on the transcendent must also be very strong. What if, under a militarized management system, they ask you to go to your death and you have to comply?
“None of these are reliable…ls the only thing left to do is to wait and hope that Rod can seize other people’s inheritance or should I go out and take my chances?”
Su Lu scoffed.
If it was before, he would indeed be patient.
But now… Perhaps Beryl is rapidly growing. If she gets too far ahead of him, to the point where she can retaliate, how can he live then?
“Even… Even if some special first-tier professions are seized, Rod may not let me take office.”
Some widely used professional paths, such as [Apprentice] and [Soldier], have definitely produced many masters and even higher fifth and sixth-tier individuals. History has proven this, and everyone is reassured.
But if it’s some hidden inheritance, for example, only reaching up to three-tier expert level, or even worse, only reaching two-tier elite, the occupational person will inevitably encounter the embarrassing situation of having no way forward in the future. They can only give up and start a sideline, and the time and effort consumed, as well as the system conflict, might completely ruin their hope of reaching the peak in their lifetime!
“That’s why Rod suggests that I acquire the occupation of an [Apprentice], a first-level profession with high potential! He didn’t know that I have an attribute column… As long as I pay attention to the power conflict of each profession, having sufficient experience, holding multiple professions is not a problem for me!”
On this matter, Su Lu had full confidence.
“So… we must still try to find information about first-level occupations as soon as possible, and preferably spellcasters. This would give me some advantage in competing against Beryl, even if it’s just a mental advantage…” Suddenly, Su Lu paused, thinking of the corpse in the sewerage system.
That is also a possible source of transcendent.
The parchment left behind by him is still being deciphered, requiring Professor Yarannis’s research notes on the Gulam Language.
Su Lu realized that he had never longed for a document so much in his life.
Rod was a second-tier [Demon Hunter], far superior to Su Lu, so natural safety was not a concern.
However, he didn’t accept Su Lu’s kind offer to rent a house for him — in his words, ‘A spacious, bright, and clean house will make me feel uncomfortable. That’s the demons’ influence on me! All Demon Hunters have this common, mild influence…’
But Su Lu felt, he was just being stingy! He couldn’t bear to live in an outside apartment and prefer to make do under a bridge or somewhere.
A deserted factory building.
As sunlight filtered through the broken window, the thick layer of dust on the floor was illuminated.
There was a lot of discarded trash lying haphazardly around, but there was very little ironware – those items had mostly been picked up by scavengers.
It is said that this factory used to belong to a textile mill owner, who had employed a large number of female workers and had made a lot of money for a time.
However, later, with the improvement of the steam spinning machine, the product prices plummeted, gradually leading to bankruptcy. With insufficient assets to offset debts, everything valuable was taken away, leaving only a desolate land. Only stray cats and dogs, or tramps, would visit frequently.
Rod, however, was quite pleased with such an environment and decided to use it as his temporary base.
He brought Su Lu over, and the two of them cleared a part of the place to use as a tutoring venue.
“Most of the mystical knowledge I know is about demons!”
Before the lecture, Rod began to outline: “The world is too big. With the arrival of the Dawn of the Gods, besides the demons of the abyss, there will be many more evil gods and evil beings awakening in the darkness… Their followers’ abilities vary, but one thing is for sure, they generally harbor ill will towards humans!”
“So… the Seven Gods are the righteous gods? Because they bear goodwill towards humans?” Su Lu thoughtfully asked.
Rod corrected: “What do you think a god is?”
“A god?”
Su Lu was taken aback, the impression of his previous life emerging in his mind: “Mysterious, powerful, almost omnipotent… Perhaps they also need human faith?”
“Wrong! How can our thinking comprehend such lofty beings?”
Rod shook his head: “Their existence, their way of thinking… may be different from what we imagine! The reason why the Seven Gods are considered righteous gods is only because they bear no ill will towards the majority of humans! The so-called ‘church’ is merely a group formed by most ordinary people in order to affiliate with the Seven Gods. They just didn’t refuse!
Perhaps for such beings, our faith is more important, but not necessary!”
“No ill will, but not necessarily goodwill? So, the so-called church, the so-called praise, are just established by ordinary people to affiliate with them…”
Su Lu felt a sudden chill: ‘Your words, if heard by fanatics, might get you burned alive!”
