I followed Shao, who apparently had found something in the mansion. The mansion wasn’t a very impressive ce. Compared to the topnotch decorating of Faeyna, it looked rather barebones and uninspiredpared to my ce. I needed to stopparing mansions. It felt like I was being a bit conceited.
The ce where Shao took me turned out to be the basement. A lot of thoughts ran through my head as Shao walked on ahead. Were there ves down here? Or maybe some kind of underground torture chamber? What I did end up finding caused my mouth to drop open. There was a stock of supplies in barrels. These included food, firewood, and other supplies one might expect to run a mansion out in the middle of nowhere.
However, the thing that Shao wanted me to see was a table sitting in the corner. Gold coins were covering it. No, it wasn’t money. If it was just more money, Shao would have just taken the money and added it to what was in the cart. As I got closer to them, I started to realize that they were a bit bigger than a normal coin.
“Wait… tokens?”
I grabbed one of the coins and picked it up, and I immediately began to recognize what it was. It had a simrity to other such token’s I had held in my life. One such token was called the Hero’s token. Each vige had one, although I honestly had no clue where they got them from. That was probably something I should ask the mayor or Prince Aberis. The person who receives such a token instantly unlocks the special job, Hero. While True Hero could only be obtained by defeating a demon lord, any vige could elect a vige Hero.
These tokens, on the other hand, matched two tokens I had on my person. They were called Knight tokens. There use should be obvious. Giving them to someone unlocked the job Knight for him.
I had a feeling that tokens could exist for any job. Maybe, there was a time when jobs weren’t earned through feats but handed out by hand using these tokens. They were essentially a small little blessing in physical form. Once handed to someone and that person picked up the job, the token was just a useless coin. Although it was gold in color, it was not even made of gold. Rather, they were made of just normal iron, and they lost their golden color once they were used.
However, every single one of these coins was “active”. That meant that anyone who was handed such a coin would gain the job Knight. Knight was a strong fighting ss superior to things like Swordsman. It was like me with White Mage, it allowed someone to jump past the basics, allowing them to exude more power than they previously could with a higher tier job and high tiered skills, right in front of me were nearly two hundred of them.
“I think we found out where Lord Reign is getting all of his Knights from,” Raissa said bitterly.
“Yeah, but where are the tokensing from?” I shook my head. “We’ll take them. That’ll be a p in Lord Reign’s face.”
An hour or twoter, we had packed up everything of value in the mansion. I even took vases and paintings, reckoning that a real Bandit wouldn’t just take the cash. As we rode out of the mansion, a batch of words popped up in front of my vision.
[You have taken arge degree of wealth from the local poption. You have unlocked the job, Bandit.]
So, I have be a Bandit. There is no denying it now.
