Chapter 177
The most powerful profession through the Faith Path should be the Night Knight. This is the first time he has ever heard of the profession title 'Starry Knight'.
In the image, Avril is bathed in starlight, and the character portrait in the attribute panel has also changed. Her originally sunny and positive appearance now has a touch of cool mystery, making her look even more charming.
Ryan opened the job description, and his heart skipped a beat.

Starry Knight: Knights who served the Moon Goddess in ancient times, fighting according to an ancient covenant, walking in the light for countless years, spreading their faith. In an age when the faith of the gods has withered, only they can still hear the occasional sighs of the Moon Goddess.
"Holy crap! Is this really not God's chosen one?"
Ryan was a little confused.
Although he hadn't seen the Night Knight's class attributes, he was sure it wasn't as powerful as the Starry Knight's. The Wheel of Stars and Moon skill alone could instantly kill the Night Knight!
"However, compared to the Night Knight, the Starry Knight has fewer offensive methods and is more of a leader. I wonder if they will learn other offensive skills later."
Having only one Moonblade is definitely not enough, but if all else fails, just give the skill book to 'Avril' as soon as possible. Anyway, this class has great potential, a lot of potential.
"Um?"
Ryan's gaze shifted, and he noticed something familiar in the hands of the Moon Goddess statue— Advancement Fragment!
"There shouldn't have been any just now, right?"
Does it only appear after changing jobs?
Ryan had Avril climb up to try and pick up the pieces, but she couldn't reach them at all.
"This..."
Ryan pondered for a moment, recalling that when 'Lin Qi' was inside the Janus Divine Site, she was also unable to obtain it.
So, is he the only one who can access these fragments?
The power of time and space has sealed away the secrets of the past; you cannot touch them.
A prompt appeared on the screen.
"Space-time? Janus's power seal?"
Just then, the image suddenly blurred, and when it returned, 'Avril' had already been teleported out of the ruins.
When Mel, who was waiting outside, saw her, her spirits lifted. "Avril, did you successfully change your class?!"
"Yes." Avril nodded.
"Great! Come with me, I'll take you to see His Your Majesty away!!"
First update! Sorry for the late update, I'll get right to Chapter 2, sob sob! I checked the monthly ticket rankings and I'm about to get crushed, please give me your monthly tickets!
Chapter 123 Amabena: Lord Ryan (Father), save me!
"You took it away in such a hurry?"
Seeing Avril leave with Mel, Ryan knew that it must be Avril's job change that caught Elvian's attention.
That makes sense. The normal Moonlight Knight's job advancement would have been completed long ago. 'Avril' spent the whole day inside, and then she was bathed in moonlight as soon as she entered. Isn't that definitely special treatment?
Ryan stroked his chin. "Perfect, now Elvian should be able to give me a more important role."
Bang bang bang!
Elvian, open the door, I've brought you some talent!
It's a hidden job advancement, and it's for Starry Knight, Supernatural Being with maxed-out abilities. Even a mere Night Knight can only be a subordinate.
In this situation, either the boss becomes jealous and eliminates the subordinate, or the boss is wise and makes good use of the subordinate.
Ryan felt that the second possibility was more likely.
Elvian is, after all, a main character in the game, and she is an ambitious and capable person. The fact that she was able to govern Wilderness so powerfully shows that she must also have a very broad mind.
Therefore, it is highly likely that Elvian will join hands with 'Avril' to start a new chapter of struggle for supremacy. The alliance between the Augustus Empire and the Kingdom of Lotte has dealt Elvian a heavy blow, and with the strength of the Holy Blood Legion, she now urgently needs power to fight against Augustus.
This wave truly represents a talent pipeline to our doorstep.
However, what Ryan cared about more was the Advancement Fragment. The time was too short, and he didn't have a chance to study it at all.
"If we're sealing off Authority of Space-Time, do we need to ask Lin Qi for help like last time?"
Although it belongs to the Moon Goddess Palace, it was only obtained by using Janus's power last time. In addition, after Janus Divine Site, Ryan suspects that the fragments that could allow him to advance have been sealed by the power of spacetime.
If that's the case, then we'll need to call on the first wife, 'Lin Qi'.
But then again, is it just a matter of 'Lin Qi' going, or is it necessary for him to be there as well?
This is another problem.
Just take that place for example. It's the place where the Moonlight Knight were born, the Moon God Relic Site Goddess. It's no exaggeration to say that it's the most important place in Veldria. It's not a place that just anyone can enter.
'Lin Qi' at least has the status of a Saintess, as for him... wait a minute, it seems like I can get in more easily than 'Lin Qi'?
'Lin Qi' is Saintess, Elvian will absolutely not let her in unless she does it secretly, but if she is discovered, it will be troublesome.
Ryan's words are laughable, little count.
We'll have 'Vainay' hide the entire list of High Lord first, since it hasn't been released yet. As for those who already knew the information, we'll use obfuscation magic to deal with them one by one.
The High Lord must first maintain an air of mystery. If the information of the top decision-maker were so easily known by others, what would become of the situation?
Fortunately, although Ryan's reputation has grown recently, it is limited to Augustus, or even just Baron. If he goes to wander around other parts of the Empire, basically no one will recognize him.
It's just that by associating with Magana's fiancé, he might attract attention... In short, Ryan needs to think this through carefully, as it concerns his advancement plan, so Ryan is naturally extremely cautious.
He opened Avril's character information—
Name: Avril
Gender: Female
Class: Starry Knight
Level: 18
Physical fitness 23.6+6
Spirit 25.2+4
Magic Power 27.2 + 6
Comprehension 9
Charm 15
Skill: Agility
Professional Talent: Wheel of Stars and Moon
Class Skills: Moon Blade Piercing the Sky Lv1, Moonlit Night Guardian, Moon Spirit
Equipment: Sword of Dawn, Kade's Bracelet, Corrosion Bracelet
(The maximum level of a character before job advancement is 20, because job advancement automatically puts them at Tier 1, and no Advancement Quest are required.)
The Dawn Sword is a Tier 1 Fine Relic, which 'Motis' recently obtained while hunting in the wild. Its stats are good, but it's only good for beginners. As for other equipment, he'll upgrade later.
Ryan gave the Ring of Death to 'Shally' who wore it, since his Second Wife was too dangerous to fight in the north and south. Speaking of which, relics with defensive capabilities are indeed rare. Over the years, the most powerful ones besides the Ring of Death are 'Moonlit Night Guardian' which 'Lin Qi' obtained from opening a treasure chest in the Moon God Relic Site.
This thing sounds very protective just from its name. It's one of the abilities of the Divine Path profession, and it's been directly materialized. I'll take it from my first wife when 'Avril' reaches Tier 3.
Oh, my dear wife, it's not that I don't love you enough, it's just that 'Avril' is in enemy territory and in danger everywhere, so we have to improve her survival skills first.
I'm sure the first wife will understand.
At the same time.
The Royal Palace of Verdaya.
Elvian is listening to Alfred's suggestion to 'call' Amabena.
Alfred is right. If bowing down would unify the Northern Coalition, then she wouldn't mind doing it. Elvian also believes that Amabena is a capable person and will definitely be able to recognize the current situation.
The Augustus Empire was ultimately too powerful. There was no benefit in trying to negotiate with them; if we sought refuge with them, we would only be devoured without a trace.
The Northern Coalition is, after all, the 'hometown' of the Kingdom of Lotte. If they have a fight, it's their own business, and they can just talk it out.
After a long while, Amabena's appearance finally appeared in the phantom image presented by the relics.
"Queen Elvian, what brings you here again?"
Amabena looked at her with a wary expression.
Elvian thought to herself, "Why are you so scared? I'm not going to eat you."
"King Amabena, I think we need to have a serious talk."
"Um?"
Amabena paused for a moment.
What did she call me? Did you hear that? She called me King, not just by my name!
To be honest, Amabena had been hesitant about meeting Elvian, because 'Shally' had recently returned to the Augustus Empire, and Amabena was uneasy without the big boss around.
But in the end, she decided to meet him first. After all, they were thousands of miles apart, so what could the other party possibly do to her?
"What are you talking about?"
Amabena asked.
"Let's talk. What benefits did Lot promise you when it became a vassal state of Augustus?"
"Benefits?" Amabena shook her head.
"Is it that there's nothing, or that there's no discussion at all?"
Amabena remained silent.
Elvian smiled faintly, "Haven't we had time to talk yet? Well, the Augustus Empire's own internal strife has just ended. That Empress certainly has the means to stabilize the situation in such a short time. But I think the most she can give you is to help Lot resist the attack of the Northern Coalition. What she wants is far more than what she can give you."
"How do you know what the Augustus Empire is thinking?"
"Is it hard to predict? Once the situation in Augustus stabilizes, given that Empress's ambition, she will inevitably set her sights on the Northern Coalition. At that time, the Kingdom of Lotte will be the center of all the conflicts, and war will inevitably break out in the Kingdom of Lotte. Have you thought about what the scene will be like?"
Amabena frowned slightly.
"What exactly are you trying to say? I have other things to do, and I don't have time to listen to your nonsense."
"Heh~ You actually know all this, don't you?" Elvian chuckled, resting her head on her right hand as she leaned back on the throne. "King Amabena, I'm telling you this so you can see the situation clearly and not be betrayed by Augustus and still feel smug. I know very well what kind of people the Augustus Empire and the Northern Coalition have been fighting each other for so many years."
"To be honest, I will soon establish the Verdea Federation, at which time all member states of the Northern Coalition will join. The matter with you before was a decision I made to accelerate the unification of the Northern Alliance, after all, Augustus was also eyeing it covetously, but I failed, I admit that. You are more capable than I thought."
"Now, let's focus on the current situation. If I were to promise you that Wildea will never again exercise military control over the Kingdom of Lotte, and would even provide you with assistance, you can Verdea Federation or not. Would you consider abandoning the alliance with the Augustus Empire?"
