'The professions I obtained are all regarded as High professions.'

2 High professions and a curse profession. Curse professions are taboo. If a ranker has a cursed profession, they'll be hated and hunted everywhere they go, so Bloodmancer is a no-go for me.

'While the swordsman's profession is one of the paths to the Hero profession, it's a no for me too.'

'So the only choices for me now are sorcerer and assassin.'

After analyzing both class possibilities, I determined that becoming a sorcerer would provide me with a broader range of powers and battle versatility.

Furthermore, the allure of mastering powerful spells and influencing the elements piqued my interest.

Additionally, sorcerers are capable of controlling more advanced forms of elements in higher-ranked professions. And they are the most powerful class amon low rankers.

'I've already mastered all of the basic elements on the original timeline. Can it qualify for the pre-requisites.'

I should probably pick my profession later. First, I should kill the girl and the baron.

...

Inside a shabby house, A gas lantern illuminated the surroundings. Dust particles danced in the dimly lit room, casting shadows on the worn-out furniture.

The flickering light revealed a man having a seizure on a wooden bed. His body convulsed uncontrollably, his limbs thrashing against the sheets.

Sweat poured down his face as he gasped for air between spasms. The agonizing sound of his moans filled the air.

"Father, bear with me. Please drink this concoction." The girl forcefully shoved the opened vial inside the man's mouth.

A few moments later, the man's convulsions began to subside, and his breathing became more steady. Having seen her father's condition get better, she heaved a sigh of relief.

The girl opened the window to let in a cool breeze. The moon's gentle glow illuminated her figure: Brown hair, A tall nose, and piercing blue eyes that looked out into the night.

As she leaned on the window sill, tears began to fall from her eyes, tracing down her cheeks. She gazed up at the starry sky, feeling a mix of emotions.

'Goddess of Light, I repent for my sins. I have put my Savior in danger by Informing that scary leader that he's the one who killed his lackeys. I was desperate. My father's condition was getting worse, and I needed money for his medication. One day, when I meet him, I hope he understands the actions I took today.'

A loud knock can be heard on the door, disturbing the girl from her silent prayer.

Startled, she quickly wiped away her tears and composed herself before answering the door.

She wondered who could be interrupting her at this late hour and hoped it wasn't someone who would bring more trouble into her already complicated life. 'Who's there?'

Answering the girl's question, a deep voice can be heard behind the door: "It's me. The Guild master asked me to give you additional silver because he's happy that the murderer has finally been caught by us."

"uhm... Mr., Can I just get the additional reward in the morning?"

"It's not that I am not grateful, but It's already late at night. I thank the mister for coming here at this time. I will just claim the reward tomorrow."

Seemingly agitated by the girl's response, the banging on the door grew louder.

The deep voice behind the door is gone, and the only thing that can be heard is the continuous banging. Startled by the noise, the girl's father awakened.

As the banging continues, the father and daughter duo exchange worried glances, unsure of the motive of the person behind the door.

Their hearts pounded with fear. They huddled closer together, seeking comfort in each other's presence.

The father's mind races, trying to come up with a plan to protect his daughter from whatever danger lies on the other side of the door.

A few moments later, the banging on the door came to an abrupt stop, and the deep voice changed into a voice seemingly belonging to a man in his early 20s.

"Hey, Open the door. We need to talk. Open this god forsaking Door!"

The father-daughter team has been silent for some time, hoping that the person behind the door will eventually stop. But, contrary to their expectations, the voice behind the door grew irritated over time.

"YOU GUYS FORCED ME TO DO THIS!"

Suddenly the door burst open, Revealing a young man with deep, dark eyes that are seemingly devoid of any light.

His whole body is covered with blood, and the dislocation of his right arm is visible. As their gaze met the figure gave a sinister smile to the father and daughter duo.
