Chapter 171: Masterful Administrator

“Thank you all for coming, ladies and gentlemen,” said the human wearing a ceramic mask, to the people gathered around him.

All of them are on their steads, not a single one had got off their beast.

Most of them are Orcs, some are human and half-orcs, with only one half-elf. Many of them are mortal enemies, but they have put aside their enmity for this meeting.

“Why have you called us, Jev?” asked the half-elf woman, sitting on a huge stallion beast, which is breathing hot air.

“I will tell you, but let me show you the reward first,” he said and opened the big chest in front of him in a flourish.

“Fuck!” many of them cursed the moment it opened, and the greed lit up in their eyes, but not a single one of them took a step toward the big chest, filled with precious gems.

“This is but a small part of the reward you will get if you agree with the job,” said a masked human.

“What is the job?” asked a buffed orc, not looking away from the chest full of gems. “It is quite simple. Killing the heir of the Amberhold City,” he answered, shocking everyone who was listening.

“You are crazy. If you think we will d….”

When I opened my eyes, there were lines of text in front of me. They were kind of expected.

Though I was slightly disappointed when I noticed despite the things I have pulled, I have only leveled once in both of my classes.

The disappointment had only lasted for a moment.

As my eyes went to the third line, my eyes went wide, and I nearly jumped out of my bed.

“Fuck!” I cursed loudly, unable to control myself.

Click!

I had just cursed when the door opened swiftly, and Jon appeared in the room with daggers in his hand.

Looking around for any danger, before turning to me. I looked at him with my cheeks red. My reaction had been a little too much, but nobody could blame me. The third line was really too much.

“I had leveled up,” I informed sheepishly.

“You must have gained quite something to scream like that,” he said, and the smile on my face brightened.

He didn’t ask further; only took one last glance at the room before leaving, while I slumped back on the bed, staring at the third line.

My Lawyer and Adviser Classes had merged and become Administrator Class. It is not a common Administrator Class, but a powerful one.

Masterful Administrator.

I had got an Administrator Class for a moment before it changed into Masterful Administrator Class and this fact surprised me the least.

I have gained the skills in both classes that turn toward manipulation and control and what better class would be to control them than the Masterful Administrator.

As for why, the merging of my classes had been gone in the direction of the administrator, despite there being many other paths.

Well, the answer to it is quite simple. It is what I have been doing. I have been less of an adviser, and more of an administrator. I have been doing every task I have been handed, rather than only advising on it.

The new class is not the only thing I have got; I got other things too.

Skills.

All three manipulation types of skills have merged into one. Persuasive, which might feel the same as persuasion, but it is not.

It is far more powerful and directed.

It is also the kind of skill that others remain careful of. I could use the skill but never tell people its name.

There are many lists of skills. My father is one of such lists with a name of skills and classes.

He showed it to all his children and asked them to be careful of people who had the skills and classes that were present on the list.

Persuasive was on the list. If I took the class high enough, I will be able to do some crazy shit with this skill. Even now, I will be able to do some serious things, but I have decided not to use its full power unless I need them.

I turned to the line below, where another of my skill upgraded into something good.

Fast Reading had been upgraded to Insightful Reading.

I had read about this skill and felt quite excited. It had now moved away from simple reading. While Fast Reading provided some analytical abilities. Insightful Reading takes them to a completely different level.

The last skill is one that surprised me the most.

It was just a few days ago; I have been jealous of this skill from the Robin and now I have got it.

It is quite a common skill among the advisers, diplomats, and even military officers above Lv. 20. It is so useful that many people would trade their important skills for it.

I wanted to use it immediately, but I controlled myself and opened the interface.

Now it has become more official and also with merging. I have once again gone back to having only three secondary classes.

I have to keep it that way, no matter what.

Now under Masterful Administrative, all the skills of the two previous classes will become powerful.

I stared at the interface for more than a minute before getting off the bed and standing in front of the mirror.

“Get Ready,” I said and activated the skill.

Immediately, a stark change had occurred to me. First was my expression, which had been sleepy, turned fresh and alert, with my hair fixing itself and skin glowing, like freshly showered.

At the same time, my clothes straightened up; all the creases and dust that might have been on them had vanished.

“Wow,” I said as I looked at myself in a mirror.

The skill is amazing, and it would have been more. If there hadn’t been limitations; at most, I could use it four times a day.

Which I don’t think would be a problem.

Half an hour later, I was in the training space, sparring with Jon. Today, I pushed myself really hard, more than I usually do.

I am going to be leaving the day after tomorrow for Amberhold and from there journey to Fort Renin with Blackwell’s force.

Fort Renin is only a few miles away from the boundary of the renwell region. My sister and Baron Harrods had looked at it from the distance and paid a few orcs to look at it.

They couldn’t go there; we were already doing illegal things by contacting the orc tribes on the other side.

The fort is in good condition, requiring a slight fixing. Which is good, if it had been in bad condition, there would have been a delay in the trade.

Thud!

Two hours later, the training ended, and walked to my suit. Where I wanted to use my skill one more time, but I remember one bad thing about it.

Get Ready.

I activated the skill and immediately I found myself clean, with my clothes just as before when I wore them.

There is one more thing, the surrounding grime.

There is a circle of filthy sweat. It didn’t disappear; it fell. Just like the clean spell, but the spell is more controlled. The skill could be controlled too, but it takes a lot of time to learn to do that.

Like yesterday, I applied the diluted healing potion to my body before I showered.

After changing into the new clothes, I went to the kitchen for breakfast, which the three of them already had.

A few hours passed, and I was once again at the port; not to leave, but watch the Count leave with his yacht, which is moving away.

He had taken all his people, including the guards and Robin. Only leaving three of us and our personal guards.

“I have received a message from Lord Blackwell. He wants to meet us at five,” said Leila.

“Well, we have a lot of time to sightsee,” said Baron Harrods, before me and my sister.

“Are any of you interested in seeing the city with this old man?” He asked, to which both of us shook our heads.

“My apologies, Lord Baron, but I can’t. I have some personal business to attend,” I said. “Me too. Though I will be with you tomorrow,” added Leila.

The old man nodded, and all three of us walked toward our respective carriages.

Carla is coming to the Oksall, and I have to make preparation for tomorrow when we will get the new girls.

Baron Harrods and my sister's carriage went toward the port's gate, while my carriage went deeper into the port. Toward the office of the ship-renting company, I want to rent a ship.

There will be a significant number of girls, around a hundred, and instead of booking the tickets, it is better to just rent one.

It is an expensive option, but I can afford it.

I am quickly done with it before entering the city proper. I didn’t just visit the places, I also sightsee. My work would be finished in minutes, as would only speak to people and set things up.

The city of Oksall is beautiful as it is huge; there are many places I have to visit, but with the time I have, I have selected a few.

Like the place, I am right now. The bubble park; is a display of magical extravagance.

It is a huge four hundred square meter place. Which is covered in a hundred colorful tiles. One has to step on it and a moment later, a bubble will envelop you and take you into the sky.

It is one of the most famous attractions in the city and those bubbles could be seen from any part of the city. They reach quite high, that one could see the entire city through them.

Like all the famous spots, it is busy, with waits stretching for months, but there is always an exception.

75% of places here are reserved for the public and could only be accessed through the line. The rest 25% are reserved, and the line stretched for years, but I got a spot.

There is an exception for the important people. I had booked the place for myself, with Counts credential.

“Mr. Silver, you can go in,” said a young orc about my age. “Thank you,” I said and walked out of the lounge, where I had needed to wait for less than ten minutes.

I walked to the huge tile space and stepped on the white tile. I want to watch the city from the sky and the white bubble will be the best for that.

For a couple of seconds, nothing happened, before I felt the humming and soon, the bubble came out of the tile and enveloped me.

I touched it and it felt like a bubble, but unlike a normal bubble. It didn’t pop up; it is magical and unless I use my sword or hit it really hard, it will not pop.

If I do that. I will be banned from this place forever.

A second after, the bubble enveloped me; the bubble begins to lift in the sky. Every meter, it went above, I get to see more and more of the city before it reached its maximum height.

Where there are hundreds of multicolored bubbles floating around me, with each one having people in it, looking around in wonder.

“Magnificent,” I said as I looked at the entire city from the height of three hundred and fifty meters.

The city is magnificent. I could see all the five walls and could feel its grandness.

‘The merchants have really built something,’ I thought, looking around with eyes full of wonder.

Pop!

Before I know it, ten minutes have passed and with a sigh of regret, I felt it descend, before popping up safely.
