My Werewolf System-Novel

Chapter 163: Select Your class

There was a lot on Gary’s mind after he had killed the twins to the point he didn’t really have the time to check up on his rewards. However, as the day continued on as normal, and he eventually saw Amy, his heart settled down somewhat from the events of today. After receiving the group message from Kai, he decided that he should continue on with what he needed to do.

‘I remember it saying to select a Class, but what does it exactly do?’ Gary wondered.

Ever since completing the Main Quest, the system kept prompting him to make a choice. Even after he had made the notification go away, every twenty minutes it would pop back up. It was clear that the system would continue to bother him until he made his choice.

‘I guess this is just something I’m going to have to do, huh.’ Gary grumbled, as he looked to his left, seeing his sister lying there on her bed. Getting up, he decided to head to their bathroom and sat on the toilet. It was a strange place to be, but at least he was safe if any changes suddenly started to occur.

‘Alright, so let’s see what these options are again?’

[Please select from one of the following classes]

[Hunter Class]

[A Werewolf Hunter is fast, agile, and sneaky. He focuses on killing his prey quickly, out of sight and from the shadows. He is able to track his targets from a great distance and has great focus.]

[Class perks include: More and better Marks, improved tracking.]

‘The first choice certainly is interesting, I could always do with extra Marks. It would be great if I could create Bonds with the others, and it would be a safe way to farm Exp. …if that’s how it still works. …

‘So far the system gave me Quests based on the situation I was in, but what if it starts to give me Quests based on the Class I’ve chosen? If I become a Werewolf Hunter, then the most obvious Quest it would give me would be to hunt more. Why else would it give me more and better Marks? I doubt the better Marks will be like my Bond Marks, more than likely it will be improved Forced Bonds or something.’

Gary then decided to move onto the next one, which had a little extra text next to the class.

[Protector Class] (Recommended)

[A Werewolf Protector boasts one of the sturdiest bodies of his race. He uses his own body to shield his pack members from any harm, making sure that they will survive.

[Class perks include: 1 Extra point in Endurance upon each Level Up, faster healing.]

‘I can see why the system recommends this one. My endurance certainly is way above my other stats. However… its strong point seems to be taking a beating though. As useful as it is, I have seen time and time again that it doesn’t matter if I don’t have the strength or speed to defeat my opponents…

‘The Underdogs have Kirk… and the gangs in higher tier towns must have Altered as well. They surely are a lot stronger than the fake ones that I went up against today. Sure, I could just stand there and take a beating, but this role only seems to work if I had someone that could help me attack.’

Keeping it as a maybe, Gary went over his last option.

[Warrior Class]

[A Werewolf Warrior could be considered the vanguard of his pack. He leads his pack into battle with his strength. He has exceptional fighting ability and courage, but it is because of this trait, and his role, that this Class boasts the highest fatality rate.]

Before reading the additional perks, Gary gulped right there. The description had sounded great at the start… that was until he read the dying part.

[Class perks include: Wide range of skills to select from, large Energy pool]

‘Hmm, I guess the problem with these additional perks, although it tells you a few details it doesn’t tell you too much. Like how much is ‘large’? Will I have 150 Energy, 200 Energy, 500 Energy? Is it the only Class that increases it? Come to think of it, will my stats change depending on which one I choose?

‘Honestly they all seem to have their advantages and disadvantages.’

His finger hovered over the options, but they hesitated. For a moment the teenager seemed to have made up his mind on one, but it soon changed to another, and then the last.

‘Damn it, this is just so hard. Should I trust in the system’s recommendation?’’

Since Gary was struggling with what to pick, he actually decided to text Tom. He explained to him, that he was playing a game, and these were the classes to select from. The question proposed was which class would suit him in real life best.

He waited and in the end got a reply.

[To me, Gary, I would say the Warrior Class suits you the best. You always do crazy things that get you in situations that might get you killed. I mean, I don’t even know what happened to you after what happened at the pool club. However, that’s what makes you, you. I always thought you had the courage like a warrior.]

After getting the text message, Gary replied with a [Thank you], as he had made up his mind. There was something else drawing him to this option, and it was the part where it stated that they lead the pack. He didn’t know if it was influenced by Kai and the others, but he really did feel more like a leader as time went on.

[Are you certain you wish to select the Warrior Class?]

[Yes.]

[Class has been selected]

[Changes to your Status will now be applied]

The messages continued to arrive as Gary became a Werewolf Warrior.
