It's done!
Nolan took a deep breath, a smile appearing on his face.
"Sir, you seem very happy today."
"Did something happen?"
The Goblin Wood Fruit, which had been held in his hand, seemed to sense Nolan's joyful mood and cautiously, fawningly, spoke.
"Later, I'll give you half of this rabbit meat," Nolan said with a smile.
"Thank you, Sir!"
The Goblin Wood Fruit immediately showed an excited expression, licked his lips, and quickly spoke.
Nolan released his hand, tossed the Goblin Wood Fruit with the broken leg onto the nearby grass, and then prepared to pick up the fat and lean rabbit meat.
Suddenly!
Nolan's movements paused. He felt his own magic power, which was showing signs of agitation, like a distinct heat flow.
This change made Nolan momentarily stunned!
He had always been able to feel the presence of magic power within his body, but this magic power was very well-behaved. When he used magic, it would simply be consumed a bit.
Other than that, there were no changes!
Nolan had only ever regarded the magic power in his body as a manifestation of MP!
The sudden change before him caught Nolan off guard.
"What's going on?" Nolan's expression was surprised. He immediately raised his sword to guard himself and looked around vigilantly.
He suspected he might have been inadvertently poisoned or affected by some other negative status.
The feeling of agitation in his magic power became more and more obvious. Fortunately, Nolan's own magic power was not abundant, so this agitated feeling was not particularly strong.
Soon!
The agitated magic power seemed to suddenly reach a certain critical point.
Buzz—
Nolan's body trembled slightly, and his attribute panel automatically appeared before him, with lines of information emerging from it.
'Satisfies class construction information'
'Intermediate Class: Sword Saint 10LV, Basic Class: Mage 10LV'
'Triggered Advanced Class: Magic Swordsman'
'Do you wish to take up this class?'
Nolan blinked, looking at the information displayed on the attribute panel.
This… triggered information for an Advanced Class?
Nolan's eyes were filled with surprise.
This was completely unexpected.
He hadn't thought an Advanced Class would appear under such circumstances, but this also completely dispelled the last trace of worry that had always lingered deep within Nolan's heart.
Although he had previously deduced the class construction information preceding 'Valkyrie,' he still had some doubts.
Even if these class prerequisites were met, would it be possible to trigger the 'Valkyrie' class information?
And the current situation dispelled that concern.
"As long as the conditions for class construction are met, can an Advanced Class's class information be triggered?"
"No, it shouldn't be that simple."
"Advanced Classes also have strengths and weaknesses, not to mention special classes. Perhaps some of them not only require meeting class construction but also some special items to be taken up."
Nolan mused internally.
For example, the special class 'Asura' possessed by Cocytus, the Floor Guardian of the Great Tomb, Nolan highly suspected that it was a class that required special items to be taken up.
"Magic Swordsman, huh?"
Nolan's eyes flashed. After a brief thought, he didn't hesitate. "Take up class!"
No matter what, this was an Advanced Class!
Although it wasn't part of Nolan's initial plan, Advanced Classes were extremely rare in the Another World, and the sheer increase in attribute values alone made it worthwhile.
'Buzz—'
'Class successfully taken up!'
Class: "Magic Swordsman"
Level: Advanced Class
Effect:
Passive · "Sword and Magic": Can use warrior skills and magic, and also gains the ability to use magic caster equipment.
Passive · "Magic Infusion": Can mobilize the magic power within the body to cover one's equipment, giving it magical attributes, which can be combined with class skills.
Class Skill · "Magic Slash": Releases a long-range slash imbued with magic power, dealing "100+20% Magic Attack" damage to the target (Cooldown: 60s)
(Note: For every 1 level increase, HP, MP, Physical Attack, and Magic Attack increase by 15 points.)
Description: A class with both close-range combat and long-range magic capabilities.
…
Hiss~
Nolan took a sharp breath.
Should he say it was worthy of being an Advanced Class? Two passive effects plus one class skill completely overwhelmed an Intermediate Class.
However!
Among these two passive effects…
Nolan looked carefully for a moment, his expression a bit strange.
"Sword and Magic" had no effect on him.
This effect might indeed be an excellent passive in a game, allowing warrior classes to gain the ability to use magic and even caster equipment.
It greatly increased the player's options, but in the Another World, there were no restrictions on class equipment, let alone that he didn't need it.
And as for the "Magic Infusion" passive effect…
Attaching magical attributes to purely physical equipment was easy to understand.
The basic four-element magical attributes were fire, wind, water, and earth. Since Nolan did not possess related magic or classes for these four attributes, his current magical attribute was "no attribute."
This could be compared to the "Holy Strike" class skill of a "Paladin."
A Paladin can infuse divine power into weapons to deal holy attribute damage to targets.
"Magic Infusion" was similar to this effect.
For some undead ghost-type monsters, pure physical attacks cannot cause damage, but attacks with added magical attributes can cause damage.
After carefully examining the information for the "Magic Swordsman" class.
Nolan showed a look of 'as expected.' This class seemed good, but if studied carefully, it was actually a rather mediocre class.
"After all, the prerequisite conditions are simple, so it's naturally impossible to obtain a powerful Advanced Class."
Although Nolan had somewhat anticipated this, he was still a little disappointed.
However!
Advanced Classes can only be leveled up five times, so even using it to increase basic stats was a sure profit.
Moreover, this class could also increase magic power, and what Nolan lacked most right now was magic power.

…
Nolan suddenly noticed that the "Specialty" value in the attribute panel had increased by 20 points.
"Is 'Specialty' related to Advanced Classes or Special Classes?" Nolan's eyes flashed.
