The Slayers
Chapter 113 (Season 3)

"You became a Beast Rider by force while you rode it?"

"true."

"Hooo's.... You know what that means?"

"...don't know."

"That means, the Direwolf chose you as a 'partner'. You're now tied to each other."

Now, Alan, Alex, and Norga are discussing. More precisely, just Alan and Alex. Norga only listened to the conversation of the two of them.

"Some of your skills will definitely require a Lyfa. And you'll get a buff effect if you ride a Lyfa."

"Meanwhile, I have to ride it every time?"

"Yes, if you want more profit."

Alex's face instantly became grim. It did have a good effect, but did he have to ride a Lyfa continuously?

He himself felt strange while riding a Lyfa. It was because he had only been riding an animal for the first time. When in the mortal, I don't know what makes him able to balance himself suddenly.

But, for sure Alex has no experience driving animals, let alone wild animals like Lyfa.

"You don't worry, you must have passive skills to ride a wild animal."

Alex was surprised, like

"Don't be surprised, that's how it works, right? You change jobs, you get exclusive skills."

Come to think of it, it makes sense too Alan said.

When Alex checks, his passive skills are very much like [Riding mastery], [Lance mastery], [Beast bond], [Switch mode], [Animal language], [Shared instinct], and [Mystic direwolf body].

Alex saw the [Mystic direwolf body] skill and was interested in checking it, but after seeing the description of the skill, he became disappointed and disgusted.

"Now now..."

Alan was now staring at Norga who had only been dumbstruck ever since. Norga had just stared at the hologram screen blankly.

Seeing that, Alan patted his shoulder and resuscitated Norga from his daydream.

"So, you got Job screwing?"

"...yes, I got it..."

Not as expected, Norga was not too excited and instead was more like a bewilderment.

"Job what do you get?"

"Ehm, there's warriors, scruffers, barbarians, Hammer man..."

The jobs mentioned by Norga all seemed reasonable, what confused her? As Alan thought. The question was immediately answered with the last job mentioned.

"...and Blacksmith..."

"Wait, what??" Alan was immediately surprised by the last job. Norga wasn't lying at the moment, he actually got the Blacksmith job option.

"Huh? Blacksmith's?" Alex was also surprised by this.

"So you're confused because you got the Blacksmith job option?"

Norga nodded, making Alan shake his head.

"Then, just ignore it. Is your dream job in sight? Just choose."

"But..."

"But what? You want to be Blacksmith too?"

"Yes..."

Soon, the room began to be filled with silence. Norga's unexpected answer made Alan's eyes bulge, his eyes almost popping out.

"You want to be Blacksmith!? But from the beginning you just mentioned wanting to be a screw?"

Norga scratched his head for a while and with an innocent smile, he said "I-that's because I don't think I'll be able to get Blacksmith's job, but now it's coming in plain sight."

Alan patted his eel and rubbed his face. He's speechless.

"Then why do you want to be Blacksmith?"

'Hmmm, simple reason.'

"So, you want to be Blacksmith or Scrap?"

"Now, I want to be Blacksmith. But, I'm also less sure that I can be a good Blacksmith."

"Hey, let's see your brother."

Norga looked at Alan, watching him from top to bottom.

"What's your brother's job?"

"Alchemists."

"What kind of job is an Alchemist?"

"Errr, job maid?"

In fact, Norga's answer is a fact. Alan did not deny this. But, subconsciously his hands clenched and wanted to punch Norga in the face immediately.

Lucky for Norga, Alan can control his emotions very well.

"Huft, you're not wrong. But, a more appropriate designation is the production job. We, the people who choose production jobs make things according to our expertise and help people."

"Now, make your choice, choose Berserker or Blacksmith, it's all up to you. I only train you as best I can and that depends on the Job you choose."

After that, Norga looked at the hologram screen in front of him carefully, he was like stamp a cup chip to every choice. In the end, he scratched his hair in confusion.

Alan could only sigh and ask "What else do you doubt?"

"Mmmm... If I choose Blacksmith, will I still be able to fight sis?"

'Oh, it turns out that problem.'

That was a very difficult question for Alan. He had not been able to answer it since he had never seen a Blacksmith fight.

For people with production jobs, it feels like a miracle if they have fighting skills. Putting aside the job fabricator or Alchemist who can fight even if not directly, other production jobs cannot fight.

It would be surprising if there was a Blacksmith who could fight monsters. If so, maybe Alan can make Norga as the first, but can it work as he wants?

"Hmmm.... It looks like it could, but that's still my guess." Alan replied hesitantly.

"All right then!"

Hearing Alan's reply, he immediately pressed the writing out of nowhere.

Alan was surprised and asked "J-so, which one did you choose?"

Alan hoped that he would not choose Blacksmith in hopes of fighting.

But, fate likes to go against his will.

"I chose Blacksmith!"

"His reason?"

"Like before, I want to make a super cool and powerful weapon!"

"Oh, great..."

Alan was relieved at Norga's answer which was acceptable.

"And... With Alan's guidance, I can be both a Blacksmith and a fighter right?"

But apparently not, Alan is wrong to feel relieved now.

"Hey, I said it's still a guess, not a real one!"

"But, looking at Alan's brother who can fight, isn't that impossible for Alan's brother?"

"A-"

Alan stopped his talk and thought once more. They become Special in an unusual way, they shouldn't be too rule-bound, right? As Alan thought. It would be cool after all if he trained a Blacksmith who could fight in the future. Thinking about it made him quite excited.

"Haah~, how else... Tomorrow we'll practice!"

""Good!""
