NOVEL WEB Chapter 11: Legendary Class
Inside the seventh level of the dungeon, Liam stood calmly, his eyes fixed on a massive bone wolf standing before him.
[E-Rank Bone Wolf]
Coldly, he pointed at a pile of broken bones scattered nearby and said in a voice filled with resentment:
"You cursed bastard, how dare you and your pack attack me while I was relieving myself? I'll kill you!"
Liam clenched his fist as veins bulged on his forehead, remembering how the wolves had pounced on him the moment he pulled down his pants.
"Damn this miserable situation."
He could only curse to vent a little of his displeasure.
Grrrrr!
At the same time, the wolf growled angrily, showing its ferocity, and without warning, it lunged towards him.
But Liam didn't care. As soon as the wolf got close, he punched it with extreme force in the head until its skull shattered into small pieces.
Without any significant resistance, the wolf died with extreme ease.
But Liam didn't stop; he continued to kick it until its body was completely shattered, only then did he feel some relief.

[ Please distribute remaining Distribution Points ]
Suddenly, System screens appeared before him, and as soon as he read their content, he showed a strange expression and sighed,
"I forgot I only needed a few points to reach D-Rank."
He smiled happily, and without any hesitation, he said:
"Distribute all points to Endurance."
[ Distributing ]
Like the previous time, a pleasant warmth began to spread from his chest throughout his body, while the mana in his surroundings gathered around him, transforming into a strange ethereal mist.
All his pores opened and began to greedily absorb the mana, which, as soon as it entered his body, started flowing through his organs, veins, muscles, and even his bones, refining them and purifying them from all accumulated impurities.
It was slightly painful, yet at the same time pleasant and comfortable, like an intense massage delivered by soft, skilled hands.
Liam enjoyed this and showed a relaxed expression, but this feeling didn't last long.
After one minute, the mana mist around him began to dissipate, and the pleasant feeling he had experienced vanished.
All that remained was an overwhelming power flowing through his veins.

[ You have received a random draw opportunity for a Special Class ]
[ Do you want to draw? Yes / No ]
Liam furrowed his brows in confusion when he saw the System screen, wondering:
"Wait? What does this mean? Is something like this even possible?"
His confusion was justified. He knew that Ascendants received their classes upon reaching D-Rank, not randomly, but based on the type of basic skills they possessed, the number of skills they acquired through training, their personalities, and the type of their talents.
That's why he hadn't thought about the class he might receive, as he hadn't even dreamed of reaching this Rank.
Even if he did, logically he would obtain the Knight class due to his Swordsmanship and Horsemanship skills.
Not to mention that his weak talent made it impossible for him to awaken a unique skill that could change his class, so his fate was clear.
But now, it seemed everything had changed because of the System.
Liam's confusion lasted for a few seconds before turning into astonishment, then great excitement.
But he struggled to maintain his composure and began to think.
"As I thought, I can't impose the standards I know onto the System. It's something beyond my comprehension.
Even my weak talent is no longer an obstacle, and my progress has become so fast that it surpasses even those with legendary talents."
A strange glint appeared in his eyes, and without hesitation, he said:
"Yes, proceed with the draw."
[ Drawing... ]
Suddenly, a transparent wheel appeared before him, filled with dozens of slots.
In each slot, something was written in a different color and font from the rest.
"What language is this?" For some unknown reason, Liam couldn't read the words before him, even though they were written with letters he recognized.
Before he could get a clear look, the wheel began to spin very quickly.
So he stopped scrutinizing it and silently awaited the surprise he would receive.
With great excitement and intense curiosity, he watched the wheel until it began to slow down, finally stopping on some strange green writing that resembled animal shapes.
[ Congratulations ]
[ You have obtained a Legendary Class: Beast Tamer ]
"What?" Liam's mouth fell open, his eyes filled with shock, and in astonishment, he continued to stare at the System screen, unable to tear his gaze away.
He stood in that state for two minutes before regaining his composure, closing his mouth, and quietly muttering:
"Well, this surpassed all my expectations."
Without hesitation, he summoned the personal status window to confirm that he had truly become a Beast Tamer.

"This is real. I've truly become a Beast Tamer."
As soon as he confirmed it, Liam let out a long sigh, then began to examine the changes that had occurred to him due to his rank-up.
He was surprised again when he found that his mana pool had increased from zero to one hundred.
However, his Mana Core was still unranked, because he hadn't yet refined any Magical Rings, or rather, he didn't know how.
Previously, when he finished developing his Mana Core, no changes occurred to him, and his mana pool remained at zero.
This was logical, for even if an ordinary human possessed an abundant mana pool within them, they wouldn't be able to utilize it to its fullest extent unless they refined mana rings.
A Magical Ring isn't just a solid concentration of mana; it's like a control mechanism that makes it easy to control mana while casting spells.
Liam's happiness increased, and he quickly began to search for monsters to test his Beast Taming skill on.
Without searching for long, he found an F-Rank Skeleton wandering alone.
When he saw it, he smirked and said, "Let's see how this works."
