The next day, when Eren woke up, the notifications were still displayed in front of him.
"…!"
He stared blankly for a moment before rubbing his eyes and going to wash his face.
Even after that, the notifications hadn't changed.
"Is this for real…?"
With slight anticipation and hesitation, he summoned his status.
New information appeared in front of him no in his hand.
The status window that appeared in his hand was the one used to show others his details.
But this current status window could only be seen by Eren himself.
[Name: Eren Morrow
Job: Shapeshifter
Tier: I
Level: 1 (0.00%)
Type: Combat Profession
Strength: 1.5
Agility: 1.5
Spirit: 3.0
Constitution: 2.0
Talent: Random Reward Multiplier (Unique)
Skills: Beast Transformation (Moonborn Silver Wolf) (Active Skill Lv.1)]
[Random Reward Multiplier (Unique): Multiplies all kinds of rewards by a random number. The range is from 10 to 99,999.]
His basic attributes hadn't changed at all.
Only the Talent section and its information had been newly added.
But the details of his talent made Eren question his own reality.
"Even the minimum multiplier is ten times… Is it really okay for me to have such an absurd talent?!" he muttered to himself.
Then he suddenly remembered the first line of the notification:
[Another transmigrator found…]
"Not only me… There's at least one other transmigrator here!"
Eren stared at the bathroom mirror for a long while, unsure what to think.
In truth, he had nothing to go on.
He had no clue who that person might be and the same would apply to the other party.
So he didn't worry about them coming after him or anything like that.
If he hid his powers well enough, he could live however he wanted, go anywhere and see everything without trouble.
His talent seemed completely unheard of, so he wasn't worried about others guessing it, even if they saw unusual results.
"Is this the transmigrator perk I always saw in web novels?"
"Did others also receive absurd talents like mine?"
He was genuinely curious about what kind of abilities the other transmigrator might have.
At the same time, he was extremely excited to test his new talent in the beginner dungeon.
"Eren, get ready quickly. I'll drop you off at school."
His father's voice came from outside his room, urging him to hurry.
His father seemed just as excited about Eren's first dungeon experience as he was.
Within an hour, Eren bathed, brushed his teeth, and ate breakfast.
"Take this bag with you…"
His mother handed him a bag with a worried expression.
Inside were several Spirit-replenishing potions, a few Lesser Healing Potions, and a lunch box.
Eren left with his father on the bike.
"Be careful. Just focus on the Level 1 and Level 2 areas on your first day… Don't go deeper," his father gave one final piece of advice before dropping him off at the school gate.
There were rows of buses waiting to take the students to the dungeon location.
After an hour of travel, they arrived at the dungeon.
It was already very crowded.
Students had come not only from their school, all students who had awakened combat and support professions during the Awakening Ceremonies across Tidewatch City were gathered here at this moment.
Tidewatch City had five high schools, with slightly over 200 students who had awakened combat-type and support-type professions yesterday.
While the students gathered together, the teachers went to handle the dungeon entry procedures.
The headmasters from each high school submitted the details of their students and their professions.
"Lucien, you really had insane luck this year…"
"Yeah, not only four Uncommon combat professions, but three Rare combat professions and even one Elite-grade combat profession… Tsk, tsk…"
"What's there to brag about? He's just lucky this year…"
As Headmaster Lucien submitted the details, the headmasters from the other schools gathered around and saw the absurd number of combat professions awakened at Tidewatch High School.
Ten Common combat professions, four Uncommon combat professions, three Rare combat professions, including Eren and one Elite-grade combat profession.
This number was far too high compared to the other high schools.
The four headmasters looked envious as they glanced at Lucien.
For every combat and support profession awakened, the school that nurtured those students would receive more resources for the following year.
Lucien smiled widely as he received the basic equipment and Beginner Inventory Scrolls from an old registrar.
"Students, I have received your beginner equipment and inventory scrolls. Come one by one to collect them…"
Lucien began calling out names and distributing the allocated equipment along with a bronze-colored scroll to each student.
The Radiant Solstice Empire was desperate to strengthen all combat and support-type professions so they could be deployed to the frontlines at the entrance of the Abyss.
Therefore, the empire wholeheartedly provided basic equipment and Beginner Inventory Scrolls for free.
If someone wanted to purchase the same equipment and scroll directly from the market, it would cost at least 200,000 Alliance Coins.
Once combat and support professionals advanced to the next Tier, they would be rewarded with higher-tier equipment free of charge.
"Eren Morrow!"
When Eren's name was called, he was given a single purple robe as his equipment, along with the inventory scroll.
[Novice Shapeshifter's Mantle
Grade: Common (Tier I)
Type: Cloth – Robe
Effect:
• Increases Spirit by 1 point
• Transformation Guard – Protects clothing during transformation and restores it after reverting to human form]
[Beginner's Inventory Scroll]
Grade: Common (Tier I)
Type: Utility Item – Spatial Storage
Effect:
• Storage Space: 1 cubic meter
• Auto-Loot: Automatically collects drops from defeated enemies within a 10-meter radius
• Soul-Bound: Cannot be stolen or traded once activated
[Inventory can be upgraded using Spirit Stones.]
Without wasting a moment, Eren infused the scroll with his spiritual energy.
The scroll immediately glowed brightly before dissolving into tiny particles of light.
[Basic Inventory Lv.1] had been added to his status.
With a mere thought, Eren stored his bag inside the inventory before putting robe on.
After everyone had gotten ready, Lucien hurried over.
"Now, everyone select the faction of the beginner dungeon you want to enter…"
Dungeon factions were simply a categorization system designed to help Rare-grade or higher-tier professions level up more efficiently.
For example, Eren's job allowed him to use the power of lower Divine Blood, which was highly effective against Abyssal creatures.
There were also professions such as Dark Mage, Cursemancer, Dark Summoner, Dark Priest, and Witcher.
These classes possessed skill sets that were especially effective against Elemental Spirits.
Professions like Fire Mage, Tidecaller, Earth Warden, and Lightning Mage had skill sets that were highly effective against Eldritch monsters.
Madness Channeler, Void Whisperer, Beast Warlock, and Beast Tamer had skill sets particularly effective against Fairy creatures.
Meanwhile, professions such as Verdant Whisperer, Spirit Archer, and Glimmerwing Enchanter were naturally effective against Divine Blood beings.
This formed a circular balance of power:
Divine Blood was powerful against Abyssal creatures.
Abyssal creatures were powerful against Elementals.
Elementals were powerful against Eldritch monsters.
Eldritch monsters were powerful against Fairy creatures.
Fairy creatures were powerful against Divine Blood.
However, professions at Uncommon grade or below did not need to worry about selecting specific beginner dungeons, as they did not possess specialized skill sets that gave them advantages against particular factions.
They could choose whichever dungeon they preferred.
Naturally, Eren chose the Abyssal beginner dungeon.
