I arrived home 2 weeks later.

"Ah, home sweet home," I said while looking at the house where I live with my mother for years now.

The house has served our family since when father died and the barren land around us which can give a lot of expansion if we have money.

"Maybe we can renovate a little if we have more money. Our land is big right? We could build a mansion and still have enough land for farming." I talk to her, suggesting we can renovate and improve our house.

"We could but we do not have the money, materials and manpower. Moreover, we barely manage to save up money after the tax." Mother said to me while she is struggling to take her large luggage off.

I take her luggage and put it on my left shoulder easily while I carried my own luggage on my right, walking towards the door.

"Ah, thank you, Kyle." she is looking curiously at me and then she squeezes my arms.

"Herm, I already know that you are strong and that is the reason why I am worried about you joining the Academy so how are you able to deceive the tests?"

"It is pretty light, mother. Anyone can carry these easily." I tried to lie to her again but she just smiles.

"Sure~ These luggage bags are light as a feather so a little boy like you can pick them up easily. But then why the cart driver has a hard time picking up my luggage?"

She laughs as she caught me red-handed. "Then, what is your class? Truthfully? Can you tell me? or at least tell me that you are not that powerless that the Academy rejects you as I wished it to be?"

She already noticed that I am hiding my powers, I can tell her the truth but I rather keep it for myself to keep her safe.

"Okay, you got me. I manage to deceive the tests through the last-minute magic that I learn before we go to the capital." I put down the bags inside the house and I stand in front of her as mother shuts the door.

"Then can you tell me your class? Is it the same one as your father?"

Reluctant to say my class because I just got more than one class. I need to talk about it with Eternity as well.

"It is complicated. I will tell you when I am ready."

Mother's face is relieved. "It's okay, you can tell me whenever. I just want you to be honest and talk to me. That is all. Do not shoulder all responsibilities by yourself, okay?"

"I will think about it but then again, I want to renovate our land into a mansion with a nice farming land so I have to do it by myself since we do not have money, materials and manpower. Wait, I can get the materials by myself and the manpower is easily acquired since I have the magic constructs."

Mother pinch me after I talk like I want to build a mansion alone without any help. "Kyle! I already said that-"

"I know, I know... Doing it alone will take 3-4 years including gathering the materials by myself as well. Designing the mansion as well as the farm and the animals. Herm..."

"Hey!"

I laugh as I am pulling my mother's legs with the joke. But I will build my own stronghold here even if I do not have enough money to build it. Perhaps I can build it myself if I have the right skills and materials. I think I can ask my elven friend for the materials since he is my secret merchant from the Dominion. I will need to crank up the production to gain more money.

But on the other hand, the new classes that I got, were the Hero, Samurai, Sorcerer and Swordmaster classes. Not to mention the voice in my head telling me that I cannot hold any more classes. I need to consult with Eternity about that as well. I will wait for tonight to talk with her then. For now, I will check my workshop to see the autonomous system that I created and the harvest.

...

"Thank you for the food. I will do the dishes then-."

"No, today is my turn to do it. Just leave it there and go to sleep. You must be tired and tomorrow we need to clean the house so rest up."

Mother gently push me away from the sink and started washing the dishes by herself.

"Okay then. Goodnight mother, sweet dreams."

"Goodnight son. Sleep tight."

I walk back to my room and sit on my bed.

"Hey Eternity, are you there?"

My sight goes black all of sudden and a voice can be heard from the back.

"Guess who is it?"

Eternity covered my eyes from behind.

"You do know that I cannot see your face after all these years right? So there's no point to cover my eyes."

I laugh.

"You are no fun." Eternity pulls back her hands and then sits beside me.

"So why are you calling me tonight? Curious about the new classes within you, I guess?"

She knows so she must be watching me.

"Yes, it's about the new classes and the limitation on how many classes that I can hold."

"Well, your soul can only hold 5 classes as that is your limitation."

"Can I increase my limitation?" I ask her back as I ponder and stand up to walk around.

"You cannot as I already favor you too much already. Look at your current stats. These stats can only be obtainable for a normal human if they are like 80-100 years old. Not to mention the Awaken Class."

"Awaken Class?" I stop and look at Eternity.

"Yes, I am going to tell you about the Awaken Class when you are nearing that stage. Awaken Class is a very rare occurrence. There are only a handful of people who already achieved that on this planet."

"So how do I awaken my class?" I sit right back beside Eternity

"After you max out your stats, the chance of awakening will come but you need a trigger to awaken your class. The trigger is not the same for all people so I do not know. It is up to you to find that."

"I see."

"But, in your case. You can transfer your skills from one class into another class but in doing so, the class in which skills are being transferred will be gone, cannot be obtained ever again and the skills will not be able to level up. Some class skills are unique to each of their respective class too so think about them beforehand."

"Oh, so I better max out all of them before transferring into my chosen class. What will happen to the class with all the new skills? Will it trigger an awakening?"

"Who knows~ Maybe~" Eternity cheekily said as she acts like she didn't know anything.

(Interesting.)

"And the people who are awakened will regain and retain their youthful appearance back. Plus their lives are prolonged as well."

Silence fills the room after I got my answers. Eternity sways her feet while looking around. Her face is still hidden from my sight. Then she looks at me as something comes into her mind.

"Oh yeah, by the way. Why are you skipping going to the academy? You will miss out on 4 years of school life you know. 2 years after you are aged 16 if you finished the academy. I was hoping to see your school arc, you know."

Ah, she was watching the whole time.

"I only skipped it because if I go there, I will not gain anything in terms of monetary and authentic experience while if I am here, I can totally focus on myself. That's why I ask for the 'perks' that you gave me during our first-time meeting, so I can skip going to school. I only missed out on having friends and school experience but isn't there an important mission that was given to me as well by a certain angel whose face is kept hidden from me, herm?"

Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit.

Eternity turns her head to the side away from my sight as she heard that sentence. I am very curious about her real face and why she kept it hidden from me.

"But... I want to see your school arc. This sucks, I was looking forward to the years of Shinichi/Kyle stories of a school life filled with love and maybe a harem... I cannot watch it now that you skipped that..."

"Oi, remember that you asked me so I do it my way. Furthermore, I already finished my studies remember? I got run over immediately after I finish my final exam so I do not want to go to school or the academy right now. The scars of regrets are still there you know, even after 12 years of me being born here... So I am more focused on maxing out my skills and gaining tons of gold for these 4 years. Then, I am going straight to the demon lord.

"B-but I want to see you meet girls your age, and fall in love by saving them from a bully or something. Then you will make another girl fall in love with you as well and you start having a harem and every boy in the school will be so jealous of you as your harem gets bigger that even your female teacher starts to open up her cold heart and like you. I wanted to see-"

I cut off her imaginative story about me with 2 words.

"Demon Lord."

She snapped back to reality.

"Ah yes, well. The demon lord. Well, I do not think you should be in a hurry, I think. Based on what I have seen so just take your time."

Then she continues.

"the romance, the action and..."

She continues to imagine how I skipped the whole 'school arc' that she was looking forward to watching. Well, me in school or should I say academy will be hard to farm gold. I need my skills to be maxed out and become rich, even richer than the king himself. But, romance huh... Loving someone is a responsibility... One that should not be playing around like it was a toy. I think I like some girls which whom I came into contact in my past life but I never go further than being just friends despite one of them dating more men in a month. That girl in my group. I also like more than 2 girls at the same time but I could never go further. Of course, the idea of a harem in the other world seems like a fantasy that comes true as I am in the other world but the responsibility that comes from loving someone is the same in any other world. It is a huge one.

"Shinichi? Hello? Why are you so deep in your thoughts?"

Eternity holds my hands as I was thinking.

"I just think about love because of your rambling. Love, girls and a harem."

Eternity chuckles.

"Oh, you are interested in love... Are you planning to build a harem in the other world? Wait, did you know that polygamy is legal in this world!?"

Eternity laughs as she wipes her tears. Weird that I can see her laughing tears and not her face.

"Oh I didn't know that... but falling in love means responsibility towards your loved one, right? Not to mention the harem. Can someone handle that much of a responsibility of having so many wives? One is enough... I think."

Eternity holds my face with both her hands.

"Well, you don't know if you don't try. Just open your heart, do not let it close forever. It's your second chance as well so do not waste it. If an opportunity comes, just go on a date first. Get to know each other and maybe love will blossom."

Her warm hands feel familiar.

"Alright, alright. Love advice from an angel, am I really that virgin in my life?"

"Well, you are, previously, but you now can get as many girls as you want in this new life too. Well, I got to go now and you got your answers right? I can see it on your face that you now know what to do."

I stand up in front of Eternity.

"Yes, I know now. Thank you for the help."

Eternity caress my cheek as she said her farewell.

"Well, I will come again but I do not know whether I can answer your call on the spot like this so... Today is a special one."

I blinked my eyes and her figure is gone.

(Well time to get to work. After I get some sleep.)

....

...

..

.

[A sharp, grinding sound can be heard from a newly built mansion outside of the city where only two people live there. A mother and her son. A huge mansion was built in a matter of 4 years and no one knows who build it as no one ever saw a single worker around that built it, only the son can be seen around the wall a quite number of times. The empty land of the area which can be easily seen by passersby now cannot do so as tall walls are erected in the 1st year as the rumor says. For the 2nd year, the mansion can be seen from outside the walls. For the 3rd and 4th years, the mansion has become a normality for the people in the city.]

"Finally, the in-game replica of my katana has finished."

The katana was made from adamantium ingots that I got from Keryth which he imported from the Dwarven Queendom which is the strongest metal in this world.

I got a few ingots left to make a nice armor for myself so I will do that tomorrow. It drains me to just make this weapon and 3 others. Adamantium ingots can only be forged by the knowledge of the Dwarves but I kinda 'brute force' it using my new class: Master Crafter. I also need to put the runes on the weapons so I will be using my 2nd new class: Master Runecraft.

With the help of Keryth as well, I got to meet a blacksmith and a runecraft with those classes when I told him that I want to meet the elves with crafting classes. I tried to search for the classes in the Kingdom but to no avail. That is why I search for them in the Dominion. These classes are the awakened classes as they have lived for a thousand years. Even though I have not lived for a thousand years, I'm only aged 16, my craft is on par with theirs and they have approved my skills.

(That 2 months of training, going back and forth. Worth it.)

I asked Keryth's mother, Kyra, about awaken classes and she said many elves in the Dominion are awakened but their stats are similar before the awakening. Maybe because of their age. Her friend, the Great Sorceress is one of the awakened and her skills are the top in the Dominion. As her so-called rival, she wanted to stand side-by-side with her but she cannot as the Great Sorceress is stationed on the western front. But awakened or not, it does not matter if they fall against the large numbers of invading forces in the battles which is what happened in the past. Only her friend can stand alone facing that kind of army.

In the Kingdom, I ask Miss Librarian about the same thing and she said that all of them are serving as the inner circle in the Kingdom and answered only to the King. They have not participated in any of the invading armies ever since the awakening as they are valuable to protect the capital city. If one of them joins the army or a force, it must be a very important task or role that they must do.

I walk out from the smithing area and go take a walk in the garden behind the mansion that I created. I can see mother cooking our lunch in the kitchen and I have never seen her this happiest in her life. I waves at her as our eyes met.

Good thing that the materials and building took just 2 years and while doing that, I was busy maxing out all of my classes. My current classes are Heavenly Knight, Shogun, Master Crafter and Master Runecraft. I left one slot for any unique class that I may stumble into in the future, just in case.

All of my attributes and stats for all the classes are at maximum. Heavenly Knight is an awakened class of templar. I transferred the sorcerer class into the templar to awaken it. For Shogun, I put both the hero and swordmaster into the samurai class. To further my attributes and stats, I need the runes and enchant them on my armor.

"So, my current problem is, for my armor. Do I create separate armor sets and weapons for Shogun and Heavenly Knight or do I just focus on one class first with my current ingots? I can order some more since money is not a problem anymore. For Heavenly Knight, I have an idea but I still need some more time so I better focus on Shogun class then."

(I will continue forging the armor later.)

Ordering adamantium ingots like it was nothing. Yes, I have more gold than I could ever spend. The autonomous farm and the underground levels, I didn't have to do a thing. They also shipped it to Keryth automatically and can repair themselves at the repair station I build on each level. I also improve them by using high-grade materials and not just wood and bones. Golems and gargoyles made from stone-like magic materials are the ones handling them. These golems and gargoyles are the highest tiers and the materials I spend looking for. I have to thank Keryth for that as well.

"Then, I am ready to embark on my journey after 16 years to find the demon lord and fulfill my promise to Eternity. I got an idea to where to start first and I just need to-"

Suddenly, a white pigeon comes to the tree I set up as a communication between Keryth and me. It has a letter on its leg. I take the letter off and the pigeon quickly goes inside the hold in the tree where water and food are there.

"Shinichi, the Dominion has received some terrible news. The Kingdom has assembled the largest invading army in its history that is going to attack the Capital of the Dominion. The first forward group must already arrive in your city and set up camp by the time you received this letter. Can you help me by providing intelligence for us? I know by doing this you may be labeled as a traitor but I just want to keep my family safe. By Keryth. P.S. My mother is very concerned about you as well and we are packing out stuff just to be safe."

Of course, I will help you Keryth but can intelligence be enough? To avoid an all-out war after all these 4 years of silence. I already suspect as much since the Kingdom did something unlikely, no invading forces for the 4 years from the time I went to the Capital for the exam. They must be some similarly aged soldiers as me in that incoming army as part of the 'curriculum' in the academy. There must be something I can do.

I hurriedly go inside the mansion.
