Chapter 6 – Final Examination ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ (Part 4)
Harada had possessed many bodies and gained their memories as well. But it would seem that he had exceeded his capacity, and main personality, Harada, is unable to control the other personalities.
Junpei rolled to the side and took distance from Harada at maximum speed.
No……more specifically, Junpei ran away from the stage.
And, he rushed towards the Examiner, Judy, as fast as he can.
「Where can I do it?!」
「Do……? What?」
Junpei continued with a furious expression while grabbing Judy’s shoulders.
「The rights of a B-Rank adventurer! Changing class once! I can do it in the Guild’s Regional Headquarters right?! I had already passed the examination itself……I should have that right!!」
「……what? What do you mean?」
「I’m Jobless right nowーーthat’s the only chance I can get, to defeat that monster!!」
「Eh……?! Jobless? You defeated me instantly……but little boy’s……Jobless?」
Judy was shocked and petrified and seems as if she could not utter a word.
“Pashiiin!”, a dry sound echoed.
「Tell me quickly! There’s no time!」
Junpei shouted once again after slapping Judy’s cheek and making her return to reality.
「That guy is targeting me! I’ll get killed if I don’t kill him……now’s the only chance! If that guy’s left alone, everyone who hasn’t escape will all die! That’s not good for you too right?!」
It would seem that a considerable number of casualties have been made, and the venue was enveloped with panic and chaos.
The audience rushed towards the exit with their livesーーbut【Vacuum Blade】was shot, as if to declare that they cannot escape.
An explosive sound. And, chunks of meat had scattered, the smell of blood and viscera had enshrouded the venue.
Those who were late to escape despaired and screamed.
ーーit was in complete chaos.
Judy told Junpei with a resolute face.
「It’s in the main building’s second floor, at the innermost roomーーhurry up and go」
And, she started to walk towards the stairs that lead to the stage.
「Hey, you……what are you planning to do?」
「Don’t mind me……just go! I’m telling you to go raise your status!! I’m telling you that……you’re the only one who can do something about that monster!!」
「No, but why……why are you going up to the stage?」
「I don’t know what I can do. ButーーI’ll buy some time!!」
「……?」
Judy shouted furthermore.
「The only one who can bully rookies……the only one who can destroy rookies, is me! And that……why the heck are you destroying them with the audience?! Don’t mess with me!! If commoners can be killed, then I’d killed them a long time ago! To let that unknown thing……destroy the matches that I held……there’s no way I’ll let him do that! I’ll give you a taste of my fist!!」
Junpei rolled his eyes and smiled wryly.
「You’re, as usual huhーーbut, I’ll be indebted with you this time!」
Junpei ran and Judy went towards the stage.
She took out a cigarette case while walking and took out one.
She lit it using beginner magic and took in a huge puff.
Her instincts as an S-Rank Adventurer was releasing its loudest alarm.
「……ahh, this, I’ll probably die」
When she came up to the stage, Harada did not mind her and showed the white of his eyes, continuing to attack the audience seat while drooling.
After Judy finished smoking one stick, she smiled deprecatingly.
「Really……this isn’t like me」
Judy took a deep breath while whispering and walked towards Harada.
Once upon a time, the God that made this world created monsters, and created superhumans to subjugate those monsters.
Those superhumans trained themselves to subjugate those monsters that threaten the world, and finally grouped up.
That is the Adventurer’s Guild.
Furthermore, the God gave the Adventurer’s Guild the rights to operate the job system that greatly interferes the rule that governs this world……the concept of Status.
The class change system that gives B-Rank adventurers the right to change their class once is also a part of that, and even the right to class change towards advanced class that is only given to A-Rank adventurers and above is included as well.
The class change towards advanced classes could only be done at the Guild’s Main Headquarters, but normal class changes can be done on regional headquarters.
Junpei who have reached the second floor of the Guild Branch’s main building opened the door in front of himーーthe door that leads to a sacred area.
「This is……they probably spent a lot of money for it」
A room made out of marble. Thin water could be seen on the floor.
Rays of light coming from the sun passed through the stained glass window and looked very sacred.
In the center of the sacred area was a Goddess Statue that stretches out its right hand as if to answer those who have the qualifications.
「……do I only need to shake its hand?」
Junpei carefully reached out his hand towards the Goddess’s handーーand held it.
ーーlost child, walking through an odd destiny……what aptitude job do you wish for?
A voice directly echoed inside his head.
「……I only wish for one thing. Give me the job that has the greatest chance of surviving……give it to me right now」
And then, a certain phrase entered Junpei’s mind.
ーーUnique Job: Skill Collector
After an instant of passing, Junpei felt changes throughout his body.
Overflowing vitality……no, it was as if life energy had enveloped his whole body.
He took out his status plate, and saw that the level up bonus up until now was corrected, adding remaining 5800 bonus points into it.
「The problem is, whether I can do that or not……but there’s no help thinking of it. Distributing my status pointsーーto do that……this is the only way」
Andーー
After a moment of hesitation, he placed all of his bonus points in his Evasion Efficiency.
「With this, my evasion efficiency is already over 25000 with full equips and【Idaten】huh…… haha, this is exceeding ridiculous. Well, if I still lose to speed like this, there’s nothing that can be done」
Junpei lightly nodded, turned around, and ran.
「As I’ve thought……it is whether I can do that in this situation…… I didn’t think that the Examiner would risk her life after all……really, how troubling」

FIRST!!! Jk, thanks for the chapter.
Junpei better hurry up, or else Ami’s also at risk of getting slain.
Chappy o arigatai!
Junpei, hurry up and give Harada one-way trip to hell and take his skill away.
Thanks for the chapter, i thought skill hunter is a skill not class
Wasn’t there some minimum adjustments he needed to make in order to just continue to open the doors in the dungeon?
He still hasn’t gotten his advanced job yet. B-rank can only allow the second stage I believe (Jobless-?????-Advanced). Basically, Junpei can get his minimum requirements once he reaches his Advanced job. He still has a while before returning to the dungeon.
If my memory serves me right the whole point of getting a job was to get back those lost bonus points to make his states more balanced, he’s either stupid or my memory is failing me
anyway thanks for the chapter
Well, he didn’t get an advanced job yet so he still has like 5k points to distribute once he gets it. Hopefully it all goes into endurance or strength (which will be needed for the lava level).
Unless as said below his speed somehow is able to combat the lava’s heat.
clearly it is. that’s simple science.. what we call “heat” is literally molecules being super sped up.
if he somehow can breach that vibration on a molecular level …
well honestly that’d be a physical transformation. he’d need some sort of regenerative skill to combat his body breaking down.
thing is, if you become so fast your body both produces and releases heat, on that level itd become extremely brittle. like he might be able to theoretically sustain it and become light or plasma (correct me if im wrong, pretty sure plasma is superheated gas) but if he should ever try to revert to human form, even if he went slowly his body organs blood..hell everything inside of him would evaporate.
also, not even mentioning the body is 70 or 80% water. boiled off water, superheated steam is among the most powerful forces man can control (barely). theres no way a flesh body could contain it.
im obviously not arguing grade school science over a light novels plot armor here. getting back to the original point, all heat is is sped up molecules so like i said if he becomes that fast then it shouldnt be an issue.
i mean at the most basic concept, now, he should legit be able to vibrate his own body fast enough that nothing should be able to land on him. and im not even talking about dodging. i mean literally fire, water air. he should be able to essentially shake like a dog at a super high speed and the air vibrations alone would shake off any attacks by now.
my guess for how he was going to beat the physical reflect skill from the beginning was something along those lines. if his kinetic vision can keep up with his own speed he should now be able to flat out see the attack being repelled and counter attack the counter attack.
assuming it has a physical form but even if it didnt, who’s to say he cant outright dodge it?
this..turned into more of a rant than id intended.
tl;dr speed. fasty faststuff things
The whole point of his job was to get better status, he doesn’t regain for distribution but the points he used increased in value , his status only jumped up, he doesn’t regain his points.
If i am correct when he returns the god will reset all his skill points. So its not that big of a deal if he throws them all in the evasion stat.
so he will hit and run with harada, still don’t figure out how he will defeat the damage reflection though, maybe judy will help
Thank you
how to defeat junpei ? buy MonkeyKingBar .. ez hit
Wtf man, Junpei is retarded, why does he put everything in AGI, he is fucking 5str its like he didn’t learn at all from the cannibal village where he got easily overpowered. I dont like the way this LN goes, its gets more n more cringe
The thing is he already got the skills that can help with balance it out “enough” already, plus speed is what HE specialize in am for it help him against him harada. And you do know that more strength will be useless against harada right? Bc of the reflection skill so I think I are retarded instead my dude bc u don’t think like a person
so I think I are retarded – some dude who uses Izayoi’s name
Okay, so can someone tell me something i thought him getting a job and a rank increased his stats twice.
For example
Having a job, would it give more points or just points in specific areas. So lets just say i choose assassin my speed,defense, and health increases. Is that what it is trying to tell me with this class PLEASE HELP ME UNDERSTAND
Okay takeda having his own rank i thought it would give him points for each time he gained said rank. So B Rank would give him a boost A Rank would give him double and S Rank
would increase it to triple the amount. SOMEONE EXPLAIN PLEASE.
I love this but i am confused and both the job and rank
So, there are three levels of jobs.
Jobless – 5 points per level
Unique (?) Job – 10 points per level
Advanced Job – 15 points per level
He was originally jobless, and thus only got 5 points per level. The only reason he was able to survive this far is because he put everything into speed. This put him on par with S ranks of level 300. The reason for this is because depending on your job, your level reflected can be only a fraction of your power. A level 300 with an advanced job would have as many points as a level 900 jobless.
Junpei was jobless, and could only show the power of someone at level 1161. However, now that he has a job, he can show the power of someone who is 2322. Though, I do not know if the (Unique) part of his job will give him any bonus points or special things or anything.
When he gets his advanced job after being promoted to S rank when he kills that Body Takeover guy, he will go from having an effective level of 2322, to 3483.
Jobs open up at rank B (I think), then advanced jobs open up at rank S. His goal is to “become an adventurer who is above A-Rank” (V3,C1).
Intermediate jobs open at rank C and you need to be rank A to get advanced jobs. Still they keep saying he’ll get advanced jobs in the latest chapters and honestly Unique jobs should = advanced jobs but the author is comparing it to an intermediate job.
The reason he’s doing a rank B test first was to rank up quick and that by getting a recommendation he could take the rank B test directly.
Is there a Job better than Advance job like Hero or something?
I mean, what is the bonus of hero class? advance class give 3 times bonus, but do hero class got 4 times?
I see this job class, “Skill Collector”, being useful against Harada (and topping it with his specialization in speed), if done right, it practically the most OP’d job since it seems like it’ll rip off Harada’s Damage Reflection skill, this is my guess/gut feeling.
didn’t the god explain that just having evasion efficiency he’ll die in the dungeon?
Junpei just fucked himself in the long term
thanks for the chapter
He’s fucked if he doesn’t. that guy out classes Junpei in every way. even with Acceleration. So Junpei legit has to dump it all in his best stat to compete. Luckily he got skills to bump up his other starts.
“Name : Takeda Junpei Thesaurus Points : 100”
The status sheet clearly says “50” though… 🤔
if you zoom in enough, you can see the microscopic x2.
He gained 5 more skill slots, with this specialization job. Would be a plus to him adding more skills.
“Skill Collector” is the job, a unique one that he got because he used skill hunter so much.
Thank you for the chapter!!
I love this novel!!
Next chapter link broken
Bullshit is swallowing me whole, what can I do aaaaah I’m being smothered in bullshitsauce oh noooe
[Physical Attack Reflection] right? Does it work if your not attacking him but restraining him? Say with an unbreakable chain maybe? Junpei speed wasn’t enough that he could tie the guy up without him noticing, so gaining the new speed+[Acceleration], he should be just fast enough to restrain him and skill steal.
The style of the story seems to be changing.
Thank you
*put every stats point on evasion*
Me : *palm face*
