Sullivan brought up his status and “clicked” on TBD. The second he did a screen popped up in front of him and it was MOST intriguing.
Warrior(Common): Warriors are the very definition of brute force. They are known for being very common but even though they are common doesn’t mean they aren’t powerful +2 STR +1 END +1 CON +2 Free points per level
Fencer(Uncommon): Fencers are focused on speed and precision and are known for their fast reflexes and quick thinking. They excel at hitting critical points on the body and work best against humanoid enemies. +2 DEX +2 STR +1 INT +2 Free points per level. +1 SKILL per 10 levels.
Duelist(Rare): Duelists are masters of fighting one on one and are like specialized fencers in that regard. The key difference of duelists though is that they have started to grasp the basics of sword magic and can even cast some spells at later levels. +3 Dex +2 INT +1 WIS +1 END +2 Free points per level. +1 SKILL per 5 levels.
Sword Mage(Epic): (Unlocks MAGIC stat)Sword Mages make duelist’s sword magic seem like a puddle compared to a lake. they have let go of most of their physical prowess in return for frightening magic. Even at early levels they can cast spells of decent strength and they only get stronger. +3 INT +3 WIS +2 DEX +1 CHA +2 Free points per level. +1 MAGIC per 5 levels.
Grand Fencer(Legendary):(Unlocks MAGIC stat) Grand Fencers are the perfect fusion between fencer’s and sword mages and as such are viewed as some of the most powerful sword fighters in the multiverse. They scoff at luck and say that skill and grit is all that is needed to become strong. +3 INT +3 DEX +2 WIS +1 STR +1 END +2 Free points per level. +1 SKILL +1 MAGIC per 5 levels.
Sullivan was stunned this was crazy even the Duelist felt like a really good deal but there was no doubt in his mind that he wanted to be a Grand Fencer. It was on a completely different power level than all of the other classes that it was absurd he would gain 12 points per level and then 2 more every 5th level. Now he was impressed with himself for killing that level 36 dude, because his stats must have been monstrous. Although now that he was thinking about it he must have poured all his points into strength so that was why Sullivan was able to beat him.
Sullivan wasn’t wrong per say but little did he know but there are actually lower grades than common and that man was one of them. His class was a Thug and he earned +2 STR per level and that was it he was one of the weakest level 30’s out there. Now back to the story.
Sullivan briefly checked over all the classes before clicking on Grand Fencer. His body erupted with pain as this time he was awake as the stat points entered his body. As he lay gasping on the ground he was suddenly filled with euphoria as his body was improved.
Sullivan quickly brought up his stat page again.

Sullivan was shocked at how much his stats had grown after only 3 levels extra. He almost drooled as he thought of being a level 30 with massive stats. Then he realized something slightly disturbing.
How am I so comfortable with being forced to reside in this new world? He wondered. That is because your high wisdom and intelligence help you cope with frightening or brain damaging thoughts, memories and experiences. Sullivan thought on that for a second “So… you're messing with my brain?” He asked the system. No you could say that your improved brain is messing with your past brain. “That is not concerning or anything.” Sullivan muttered.
“Wait but how was I so comfortable with being attacked within just a few seconds of being here?”
I am not allowed to tell these things to someone under F-grade
“F-grade? Like in one of those cultivation novels?!?” Sullivan wondered. “Does this mean I have to start meditating now?
The world was silent as he asked this question.
“So where exactly am I?” Sullivan questioned the air as he turned around and looked at the battlefield. The soldiers were long gone. They had left after he had been put into the integration for who knows how long.
Well, if he was going to be in this world for the foreseeable future he might as well find a place to stay. He was also very interested in getting stronger in this new and cutthroat world.
As he started to collect anything of value he could find he wondered at why he had been sent here. Was it just some random coincidence or was there a specific reason for being put here.
He looked at all the things he had gathered. He had found various armor and weapons but decided to keep looking for something. While looking he had found some crystals that had interesting screens.
Armor Augmenter (Rare) x2
This crystal allows the user to change the look of any armor and won’t affect any of the armor's abilities.
Weapon Augmenter (Uncommon) x6
This crystal allows the user to change the look of any weapon but can’t change key features that are used in skills
Leveling Crystal (Trash) x14 (Common) x9 (Uncommon) x6 (Rare) x2
This crystal is dropped on death and reflects your class level each crystal hold 1%(Trash) 5% (Common) 10%(Uncommon) 25%(Rare) 50%(Epic) 100%(Legendary) 150%(Mythic) and 200%(God-ling) of the enemies current level and can be absorbed by crushing them into your palm.
Upgrade Crystal (Rare) x1
Can upgrade any item up one tier at a max of rare if set against it with the intent to upgrade
it.
He was very interested in all of them but most of all those leveling crystals that looked like they would give him a very good boost in levels.
He also touched his fencing suit to see if it had any stats
(???) (Uncommon Soul Bound Armor of Sullivan)
Level: 8
Stats:
PHYS DEF: 25
MAGIC DEF: 27
SPEED: 30
SKILLS: Battle-sense (Passive) Rapid Movement (Active)
He looked at it and then in a spark of inspiration pulled out the upgrade crystal and pressed it
against his armor. *Ding*
He hurriedly checked it again.
(???) (Rare Soul Bound Armor of Sullivan)
Level: 8
Stats:
PHYS DEF: 30
MAGIC DEF: 32
SPEED: 35
SKILLS: Battle-sense (Passive) Rapid Movement (Active)
He was pleased with the improvement of his armor but he needed a name for it. After some deliberation he decided to name it Velox. *DING*
That was all he needed he checked to make sure the name truly had changed and then looked at all the other crystals. He grabbed the Armor Augmenters and used them on his armor to change it from standard fencing gear into leather armor with no helmet.
He grabbed one of the trash leveling crystals and used it. It made him feel just a little bit more powerful. He continued to use the trash ones until he felt a double boost on his fourth one. He realized he had just passed the 10% marker so he had gained 1 extra percentage.
He used the 10 more for 11% and reached 92% to the next level. He had finally used all of his trash ones and moved on to the common ones. He got 27% just by absorbing one of them and he was shocked. Then he realized that he was absorbing a percentage of their exp and not just a straight percentage.
He used all of those and reached level 10. He moved on to the juicy looking Uncommon Crystals. He gained 2 levels after using all of them. He turned his greedy eyes to the Rares.
