Chapter 34 Suboccupation, Saint Soul Mage
Moses was in a dilemma. He really wanted to tell William that no, it wasn't him, that he hadn't…
However, after long consideration, he eventually chose to teach this second-generation Lord the Saint Soul Magic.
What was William doing?
Of course, he was betting. He was betting that his Father had some relationship with Moses and that he would be able to gain something.
However, he didn't expect their relationship to be so good.
From what he knew about Moses' character from his previous life, the latter would not attack him, even if they fell out with each other.
However, when Border Town was wiped out in his previous life, this guy hadn't done anything either.
That was enough to know that Moses wouldn't hurt him, but he would not put in too much effort to help him either.
William's connections were not that important to Moses. He only wanted to hide himself.
When Border Town was wiped out, he just had to find another place to waste away…
Everything had started well.
Now that William had gotten some good things from Moses, he believed that the rest would be easier to deal with.
"After all, in this world, there's probably no one that knows them better than I do, right?" As a player who had relived his life, William had specifically researched various types of history and stories relating to the NPCs that were Epic-level and above.
He had memorized stories of Legendaries like Moses.
…
Did he really leave those letters to this little Prince so that William could get some benefits from me? Moses suddenly remembered the previous Lord and pouted. Didn't I just scam you once? It's not like you would die…
He didn't know how that person managed to get an Elven princess to fall for him. Before he left, he had actually left such a dirty trick in place and it immediately made Moses's imagination run crazily.
As an all-rounded mage, Moses was more curious about the fact that he wasn't able to read William's mind. This definitely made him more interested, especially since William was rather handsome and matched his aesthetic standards rather well.
Of course, that wasn't the main point. He had seen many handsome men, so there had to be something extra for him to really admire…
"Anyway, after this boy was tricked and almost died, his soul seemed to have become more interesting…" Moses yawned, simply waving his hand as he closed the wooden door.
He waved his hand once more and the black cat jumped lightly into his arms, wanting a nap on the bed.
Even a normal mage would have to study all sorts of magic every now and then.
However, for Moses, training his magic was really simple.
Elemental magic?
Oh, there's metal, wood, water, fire, earth, ice, wind, thunder…
Space-time magic?
Oh, there's space and time…
Other mages would go, "Oh? Once you're done, you can train in meditation!"
And Moses would reply, "Oh? Can't it be learned after reading the magic book once?"
All of the mages on the continent would die from frustration instantly.
Anyway, no matter what magic it was, Moses could understand it easily. As long as he was familiar with it, he could even use a cursed spell immediately.
That was why it wasn't really possible for Moses to live like the other mages.
It also had something to do with the fact that Moses had been cursed. It was very hard for him to study other magic now.
"Are there still two more years?" Moses sat on his bed, staring at his bare upper body in the mirror. It was completely covered with dark red magic symbols.
Those weird symbols shined with a red glow, looking extremely scary.
It was almost unimaginable as to what he had been cursed with!
However, this was how it looked after the curse had been weakened.
When he first ran away from the magic sanctuary, he was covered in the curse from head to toe and his skin couldn't be seen at all. It was at that time he had arrived at Border Town…
Not only did this curse suppress his capability, but his soul was permanently in pain as if the curse wanted to exterminate it.
"It is precisely because it's so painful, and because this type of curse wants to exterminate my soul that I managed to research and find a deeper level of soul magic. Saint Soul Magic isn't as simple as it seems…"
"You called me the betrayer of the Gods. You punished me, tortured me, and abused me. You didn't care whether I was willing or not. Are you willing to become a god…" Recalling his mentor, Moses couldn't help but smile coldly before he hugged the black cat in his arms and yawned as he continued to sleep.
…
The feud between Moses and the magic sanctuary wasn't something that needed to be settled now.
Aside from wind, thunder, metal, wood, water, fire, and ice, all elemental magics could be learned easily after reaching level 40. A beginner mage could only throw fireballs, water arrows, or other common spells.
They were all basic spells.
Wind and thunder had some difficulty. However, as long as the player could awaken these two attributes, finding such a teacher wasn't too difficult. It wasn't considered a hidden occupation.
He wasn't saying that elemental magic wasn't good enough. The player would be extremely strong if they were proficient in any sort of magic. However, it was just a little common…
However, the psychological magic that included soul, willpower, and illusions was a hidden occupation in its own right.
Together with the inheritance scroll created by Moses, he had actually achieved the Legendary level!
Saint Soul Mage Inheritance Scroll
Level: Legendary
Requirement: Bloodline potential cannot be lower than Epic.
However, there were two ways of learning the profession.
The first was to find a mentor to learn magic and skills.
However, battle magic, normal magic, and skills were all of different levels. If they wanted to learn better skills, they naturally had to use even more money and even increase the impression points of the mentor and see if the mentor's level was high enough.
Players usually followed the versions of the game to increase the impression points of their mentors or used money to buy new skills and manuals.
The second method was an inheritance scroll.
They would put everything into the scroll and as the level increased, so would the respective skills.
The scroll's level depended on the skills, battle energy, or magic level.
Although William didn't know how much Moses had put into this scroll, 'Saint Soul Magic' must be very strong. At least, it was not weaker than Watchman of Dawn.
William quietly opened the scroll in his bedroom.
An indescribable blue glow instantly rushed into his body.
Right away, a soothing feeling spread across his body and the energy in his mind kept growing, making his thoughts become clearer and his senses become sharper and more agile. That was the purest form of soul energy.
At the same time, a ball of magic slowly formed within his body.
This was his magic level. At the same time, two types of energy surged within him, battle energy and magic!
Neither disturbed each other, each working in different ways in his body.

…
Ding dong: Do you want to create a new skill tree for the Saint Soul Mage and Watchman of Dawn?
William narrowed his eyes. "Yes!"
He had waited a long time to fuse these skills. The reason he had chosen soul magic as his sub-occupation was because he had seen strong cooperation between the two occupations in his previous life…

"F*ck, f*ck, f*ck, it's this! Life Sacrifice, Soul Control… and Saint Spirit Surprise Strike!" At this point, William couldn't control himself anymore.
There was nothing else.
There were too few Legendary soul magics…
This was because normal soul magic was already very difficult to obtain, but it was far from that powerful. As for Saint Soul Magic, it was completely beyond that.
The craziness of the Life Sacrifice was even more indescribable. For a game without large-scale healing skills, Life Sacrifice was a godly skill.
It could be said that few soul mages in the entire Legendary continent had this skill, not to mention having the close combat skills William had.
Also, after hitting an opponent, Saint Spirit Surprise Strike could allow for the player to use their soul to travel through space while their body appeared in front of the opponent and continued attacking. This skill was so outstanding that it couldn't get any more points whether it was attacking or running away…
He could vaguely remember that he had only seen such a crazy skill once in his previous life. He had seen it during the time recall and it belonged to a skill owned by a second-century Legendary powerhouse.
During this time, no one had the chance to learn such a skill, because they had never seen one.
William never thought that he would actually be so lucky.
There was also the Soul Shock Wave…
Soul Touch…
Saint Spirit Enchantment…
And even Soul Control, this annoying but crazy skill…
These soul skills were extremely useful assist and control skills…
The most important part was that he clearly didn't think that one of the special effects of the Saint Spirit magic could actually increase all of his magic resistance. It was too crazy.
Although the special effects were very low now and he could only increase his magic resistance by 1%, once he increased his level, the effects would be extremely obvious.
It was extremely rare to find an endowment, ability, and equipment with such all-rounded magical resistance. This special effect was like finding growing Legendary equipment. However, it required quite some time for it to grow properly…
"I have to say, I'm further along on my path to become a Legendary Boss…" William stared at his attributes happily. He was a weak level 15 and didn't have any other defense equipment. Yet, with his Epic-level inner armor alone, his health was already at 3021. Wasn't this really crazy?
If he could make iron armor with the mythril, his health points would definitely be more than 5000!
There was no other way.
This was the Legendary Boss.
He was strong, highly defensive, and durable.
This was the basic respect a Legendary Boss had for players!
No matter what occupation this Legendary Boss had, the Boss had to be durable when facing a player!
