The Path to Godhood Begins from the Otherworld

"What are you looking at me for?"

When Luo Shu saw their actions, he sighed in his heart, but a hint of relief flashed in his eyes.

However, he suddenly remembered that he had not yet explained how to use the job transfer book. A hint of embarrassment appeared on his face, and he quickly added,

"Blame me, blame me. The usage of this job transfer book is very simple. Just open it directly."

The three girls looked at the embarrassed expression on Luo Shu's face and couldn't help but chuckle, and their nervousness was relieved a little.

Their hands opened the job transfer book almost at the same time.

Luo Shu saw that after the job transfer book was used, it turned into a radiant light that enveloped the three of them. Seeing this, he quickly spoke up to remind them,

“Now concentrate and when you see the ether, draw it into you.

Then, once you have the basic skill called 'Inner Vision' in your mind, learn and use it, and then tell me the color of the magic energy you see in your body."

Upon hearing this, the three women hurriedly did as they were told.

A few minutes later, Luo Shu learned the colors of the magic elements from the three women and knew their respective magical properties.

What surprised him was that the three women's magic attributes all had both basic and mutation attributes.

Should we say that she is worthy of being one of the many heroines in the derivative world?

It seems that letting them choose the magic element system that exists in this derivative world is undoubtedly the right thing to do.

Chapter 38: Surprises

Kurumizaka Ruri has the dual attributes of light and fire, Sasaki Setsuna has the dual attributes of water and ice, and Hamasaki Reina has the dual attributes of earth and shadow.

After Luo Shu informed them of their magical attributes one by one, he pointed to the three [Professional Promotion Scrolls] on the table.

"Based on your mysterious talents of both magic and magic attributes, after using the [Class Promotion Scroll], each of you can choose a more suitable hidden class in the magician branch."

"Does Shujun have any good suggestions?"

Kurumizaka Ruri first stopped Sasaki Setsuna and Hamasaki Reina from getting the scroll, then thought for a moment, "For example, what are the main hidden professions that are suitable for us?"

"The most suitable hidden branch of the magician profession for Liuli is undoubtedly the Holy Flame Order, which is naturally feasible for evil spirits and spirits.

As for Xuecai, the most suitable character for you is naturally the Winter Witch. The power and effect of your magic skills will be greatly enhanced in environments with abundant moisture and low temperature environments, mainly in winter.

As for what's suitable for Lena, because her shadow attribute is quite special, the best choice is naturally the Shadow偃师. The so-called偃师 is a puppeteer who uses magic elements to condense silk threads to control puppets and shadow puppets to fight.

Creating a regular puppet might be more complicated, and Shadow Puppets originally require a higher supply of mana. However, because your own magic attributes include the Earth attribute, as long as you stand on land with buried magic veins, your mana supply can be slowly restored. This is also the advantage of Earth attribute mages, and their endurance is better than that of mages of other attributes.

"Is that so? Then I'll listen to Ash." Sasaki Setsuna made a decision immediately after hearing that. "Witch, that sounds like mysticism."

"Since Lord Shu has said so, I will choose the Holy Flame Envoy."

Kurumizaka Liuli did not think too much about it. Moreover, she thought of her own name "Liuli", which means a beautiful creation forged by fire. She felt that perhaps it was her destiny to choose the Holy Flame Messenger.

"But I don't know much about puppets," Hamasaki Reina said, feeling somewhat distressed. She had never paid much attention to the occult, let alone puppetry. "Shu-kun, if I choose this, you'll have to help me if I come across something I don't understand."

"Don't worry, it's not just Reina. If you have any questions from now on, you can ask me, Ruri and Setsuna."

Luo Shu smiled and said soothingly, "Since you choose to trust me, I will definitely not leave you alone in the future."

"Well, let's get started."

Upon hearing this, Kurumizaka Ruri looked at her two friends.

The three women looked at each other, and once again reached out their hands in tacit understanding to grab the [Job Promotion Scroll].

"By the way, after your three classes are promoted, you should each master three innate skills related to the hidden profession. Memorize them. Given your current mana reserves, don't rush to use them. These innate skills consume far more mana than basic skills like 'Clairvoyance'."

"clear."

The three women answered in unison.

Soon, the three women were promoted.

Luo Shu could clearly feel that the temperament of the three women had changed slightly.

"How do you feel now?"

Luo Shu looked at the three women with a smile. He was actually a little curious about how an ordinary person would feel when becoming a magician.

After all, he was carrying the "World Tree Seed" and the process of mastering the mysterious skills was too smooth, so he did not experience the changes in himself too carefully.

"It's amazing." Kurumizaka Ruri felt as if there was a flame inside her body. "I feel as if there is a fire burning inside me."

"I feel like my skin has become more hydrated." Sasaki Setsuna's focus shifted a bit. "Also, I can clearly feel the moisture in the air."

"My words felt like they were connected to my own shadow."

Hamasaki Reina didn't know how to describe it. She thought for a long time before continuing, "It's as if the shadow can break away from me and act independently. Is it my illusion?"

"No, I use the three innate skills of Shadow Master: Shadow Creation and Walking Alone, and Shadow Binding into Threads to Transform with Shadow Me.

'Shadow Creation and Alone Movement' means creating a shadow puppet and providing it with sufficient magic power so that the shadow puppet can act independently from the shadow master. The maximum range of the shadow puppet's movement is closely related to the shadow master's magic power reserves and mental strength.

Shadow-Twisting Silk is a technique that uses magic to weave shadows into silk threads for remotely controlling puppets and shadow puppets. The strength of the shadow threads requires you to slowly improve your proficiency in this skill.

The final Shadow Translocation is a life-saving skill. When in danger, you can teleport to the nearest shadow and hide in the surrounding environment. Of course, if your proficiency in this magic skill is too low, the teleportation range is quite limited, and its effectiveness is severely affected in brightly lit environments such as daytime. Reina, you need to pay special attention.

Luo Shu explained in great detail. There was no other way around it, since he had the "World Tree Terminal" under his control, and could check the information about these mysterious skills at any time by browsing the exchange list of [Fantasy Exchange].

"What about Setsuna and I's magical abilities?" Kurumizaka Ruri quickly asked, "Does Shu-kun know about them too?"

Luo Shu certainly wouldn't be partial, he nodded and explained,

"The three innate skills of the Holy Flame Master are 'Holy Flame Technique', 'Holy Light Law', and 'Holy Light Shelter'. Holy Flame Technique is the power of light and fire, and is extremely lethal to evil spirits. If controlled properly, it will not cause a fire.

The Holy Light Command can summon a Holy Light Knight to fight for you. The more magic power consumed, the stronger the Holy Light Knight's combat power.

Holy Light Protection is a life-saving skill that allows you to temporarily enter an invincible state for a few seconds. However, the disadvantage is that it consumes a huge amount of mana, so use it with caution."

"What about mine?" Sasaki Setsuna quickly shifted her attention. "Ashu, is there anything special about the Winter Witch's innate skills?"

"Witches are one of the largest branches of the magician profession, and the Winter Witch's innate skills are naturally special.

The three major talents of Setsuna's Winter Witch are 'Frost Magic', 'Ice Command' and 'Winter Protection'.

If the proficiency of 'Frost Magic' is high enough, it can even change the weather in a local area. Of course, this requires a huge reserve of magic power and mental strength.

'Ice Command' is similar to Holy Light Command in that it summons an Ice Guard to assist in battle. The more magic power consumed, the stronger the Ice Guard's combat power. Compared to Holy Light Knight, the Ice Guard can absorb water molecules in the air to repair its own damage in high humidity environments and in winter, especially on snowy days, thereby saving pressure on the caster's magic supply.

"Winter Protection" allows you to withstand the harsh cold, even wearing short sleeves in winter without feeling uncomfortable. From now on, you basically don't need to buy winter clothes. More importantly, this protection will make it easier for you to get close to aquatic animals."

"It's not a life-saving skill." Sasaki Setsuna was a little worried when she heard this. "It sounds like the effect is average."

"Normal?" Luo Shu was so angry that he laughed. "Xue Cai, have you forgotten that the Fusang Islands are surrounded by the sea? In such a geographical environment, how effective can your 'Winter Protection' be?"

"what?"

Chapter 39: Timber Delivery and External Procurement

"Let me give you an example. Your proficiency level in Winter Protection increases as you accumulate mysteries. Once it's increased, you can contact a blue whale to pick you up when you go out to sea. All you need to do is say a word. Do you understand?"

"What do you mean?" Sasaki Setsuna still seemed to understand, "I can communicate with aquatic animals in the future?"

"Yes, as long as it's an aquatic animal, from a frog to a whale, you can communicate or cooperate with it through affinity.

It's like you can rely on aquatic animals in the future and even compile an intelligence network covering the entire ocean. It's not impossible for you to dominate maritime trade in the future."

"Hiss..." Kurumizaka Ruri took a deep breath after hearing Luo Shu's story, and then said with emotion, "No wonder this profession is called 'Witch'."

"I don't want to monopolize maritime trade." Sasaki Setsuna was shocked. "Ashu, I don't want to really become a witch."

"If that's the case, Shu-kun, we must keep this a secret from now on."

Hamasaki Reina was very careful. She immediately thought of the terrible consequences if the Fuso government knew that the three high school girls had such a powerful power.

"Otherwise, if the Fuso government learns that we possess mysterious powers, our situation will be dangerous."

"Reina is right. If you don't think about the future, you will have immediate worries."

Luo Shu nodded slightly when he heard this, "Let's do this. From now on, we should try not to use mysterious skills in public. If we find any danger, we should contact each other immediately.

After I enroll, I will set up a club related to the occult to conceal my identity."

"Don't worry, Shu-kun. I won't tell anyone about these mysterious skills without your consent." Kurumizaka Ruri said quickly, "I won't tell anyone even to my family."

"I believe you." Luo Shu heard what Kurumizaka Liuli said and just looked at her quietly, "Liuli, I hope you will do what you said and don't let me down."

"Yeah." Kurumizaka Ruri looked at Luo Shu's calm expression, but couldn't help feeling a little nervous. However, she knew very well that words were not enough, and everything would depend on her future performance.

Moreover, she had a hunch that since Luo Shu dared to let them master such a powerful mysterious power, he must have a trump card to prevent them from losing control.

Thinking of this, Kurumizaka Ruri made a silent decision in her heart.

Mr. Shu, I will definitely not let you down.

Setsuna Sasaki and Reina Hamasaki noticed that the atmosphere suddenly became a little solemn. They were stunned at first, and then they understood why Kurumizaka Ruri suddenly made such a promise.

They hurriedly said in unison, "We swear..."

"Okay, stop being so jumpy." Luo Shu interrupted the two women's oath and spent 500 world origin points from [Fantasy Exchange] to exchange for a magic book called "Akartot Manuscript".

However, he did not give it to them right away, but instead instructed them, "Since you are all magicians now, you should slowly practice your respective innate skills.

I will find a way to get you some magic books later. As for your training location, I will set it on the 12th floor of Qianying Apartment. I will transform the 12th floor into my personal workshop when the time comes."

As soon as Luo Shu finished speaking, Kurumizaka Ruri's phone rang.

"Answer it, why are you looking at me?"

"Shu Jun, it's Uncle Yoshida calling. The wood we bought should have arrived."

"Come on, let's go downstairs. Next we should hurry up and make the rune amulet."

Luo Shu said this, and took the three women out and went downstairs to prepare to receive the wood delivered to Qianying Apartment.

A few minutes later, Luo Shu and the three women arrived at the door of Qianying Apartment and saw several trucks.

"Miss."

When Yoshida Ken saw Kurumizaka Ruri walking out of the apartment door with Luo Shu on her arm, he hurried over to greet her, "The wood you requested has been delivered."

"Is it yew and osmanthus?"

"Both, and a small amount of Paulownia."

"Is it reliable?"

"These logs are decades or even hundreds of years old, are of excellent quality, and have been partially shade-dried in advance."

"Okay, I'll ask Uncle Yoshida to notify my family to settle all the payments as soon as possible."

Kurumizaka Ruri said, raised her little face to look at Luo Shu, and asked, "Shu Jun, where should these woods be sent?"

"Wait a moment, I'll open the door to the underground garage."

Luo Shu showed no impatience. He simply looked at Yoshida Ken calmly and said, "Mr. Yoshida, I will transfer the payment for this batch of timber to Liuli later. Please explain this to the head of the Kurumizaka family when you return."

"Understood." Yoshida Ken simply nodded slightly, his cold face expressionless, and his tone neither humble nor arrogant, "I will report the truth to the head of the family and his wife."

"Thank you." Luo Shu nodded gently. "Liuli, please watch over here. Xuecai and Reina, do you want to come with me to the underground parking lot, or stay here?"

"I'll stay and accompany Ruri." Hamasaki Reina thought for a moment, "Yukina, you go with Shu-kun."

"Okay." Sasaki Setsuna naturally had no objection. She was eager to have more opportunities to be alone with Luo Shu. She walked happily to his side, put her arm around him, and walked towards Qianying Apartment.

After Luo Shu brought Sasaki Setsuna back to Qianying Apartment, he quickly took the elevator down to the parking lot on the underground floor and opened the closed roller shutter door at the entrance.

The parking lot of Qianying Apartment is not very big, but because the apartment manager has not yet taken office and there is no time to rent it out, it is empty except for Luo Shu's two Toyota motorcycles.

Luo Shu first turned on the lighting system of the underground garage, then walked along the ramp at the entrance and returned to the main gate of Qianying Apartment. "Okay, now I'll trouble Mr. Yoshida and everyone else to move the wood to the underground garage."

"No problem." Yoshida Ken glanced at Kurumizaka Ruri, and seeing the young lady nodded, he called on the bodyguards and workers of the transport team to move the wood to the underground garage of Qianying Apartment.

More than half an hour later, Luo Shu earned 100,000 yen for Yoshida Ken to use as transportation fees. After all, hundreds of logs were still a heavy burden for the porters.

After watching the transport convoy led by Yoshida Ken leave, he said to Kurumizaka Ruri, "Give me the bill later. Hundreds of these high-quality logs are definitely not cheap."

"Shu Jun saw it?"

"What do you think?" Luo Shu was a little speechless. "Didn't I tell you the budget? Well, never mind. Reina will need some wood to make the puppets next time, so there's no need to worry about wasting these logs."

"Hey, can I use these woods too?" Hamasaki Reina was a little surprised. "Isn't that a bad idea?"

"Reina, if you don't have money, you can choose to pay with your body." Sasaki Setsuna teased, "Ashu will definitely not mind."
