Tsunade's Job Change Item

The treasures inside the chests had been placed there by Shen Mo long ago.

Their value was not particularly high.

Only ten thousand Trading Points.

However, it was a seed.

Whether it could become a true grand prize, even Shen Mo did not know.

This was certainly related to building new anticipation for Tsunade.

But at the same time—

It was also, in the truest sense, a choice concerning will and fate.

At this moment, Tsunade stared at the last chest but did not open it immediately. Because her features were so delicate, the suspicion on her face could not be hidden, and everyone saw it.

Had she sensed something?

Shen Mo wondered inwardly, but he did not say anything.

Tsunade subconsciously clenched her fist.

She had been fine before. But when she was preparing to open the last chest, an indescribable feeling suddenly began to well up from the depths of her heart, forming a pressure.

Was it because of this chest?

She took a deep breath.

Tsunade hated the feeling of hesitation and inner struggle, so she directly reached out and opened the last chest at an even faster speed than usual.

In an instant.

Beneath the vast night sky, sacred white light bloomed.

That was right. Sacred.

Everyone, including Sasuke and Kakashi, was bathed in the white light. They even felt as though they were wrapped in a comfortable hot spring. It was so warm, so tolerant, so benevolent.

It was as if the pain and torment in their hearts would all be melted away by it.

"What exactly is inside this?"

Sasuke covered his face with one hand, leaving only his eyes peeking through the gaps between his fingers in astonishment at the light that was not dazzling in the slightest.

He discovered something.

Even his voice carried a trace of trembling.

It was as if he were resisting the urge to cry.

But no one laughed at him.

Sakura beside him was already in tears by this point.

And Tsunade

Whether it was because she was the closest or because she was the Chest Opener, her pale golden eyes were now filled with panic and helplessness, like those of a vulnerable young girl. She subconsciously stood up and quickly swept her gaze around, finding the person she wanted to find.

"What is this? What's inside the chest?" she asked Shen Mo urgently.

""

Shen Mo slowly stood up and walked toward the chest step by step, but his eyes remained fixed on Tsunade as he said with a smile:

"Congratulations, Tsunade. I've said more than once that chests can change fate, haven't I?"

"You've said that many times." Tsunade grew even more anxious, her fists tightening. "But what I'm asking now is what's inside this chest. Explain it to me quickly in the simplest, easiest-to-understand words, you bastard!"

This was the most annoying time to keep someone in suspense!

""

Shen Mo's expression froze.

He had clearly prepared a whole speech to make himself sound impressive.

Forget it. He wouldn't argue with her.

"This is an extremely rare item. Its appearance truly depends on the Chest Opener's own will. Let me put it simply." Shen Mo looked at Tsunade's raised fist and sighed helplessly. "What you obtained gives you a chance to become a Paladin, but whether you can seize it depends on whether you yourself have the qualifications."

That was right.

Inside this chest was a Job Change Item.

Paladin.

This class had appeared in countless games. They were basically similar, but Shen Mo's version was not from any specific game. It was a semi-customized item.

The Holy Badge.

It contained the seed of Holy Light. Only someone who successfully passed the Holy Light Trial could possess and use the power of Holy Light.

"Paladin." Tsunade repeated the word once before asking, "What is that?"

"A group of very powerful people, both in strength and in spirit." Shen Mo gazed seriously at Tsunade with his dark eyes. "They are guardians of hope, usually noble and loyal in character. Not only do they possess formidable power, they also have powerful healing abilities. They exist in many worlds. The Cross of Courage around your neck can also be considered one of their items."

That was already concise enough.

Paladins.

They could heal and control, attack and endure. In most games, they were basically the backbone of the party.

As expected, Tsunade's eyes lit up, shining brightly. Clearly captivated by Shen Mo's description, she said happily:

"Isn't that just describing me?"

"You're certainly confident." Shen Mo was speechless.

However, it was precisely because he felt the power of Holy Light and the identity of a Paladin suited Tsunade so well that he had brought it out.

At the very least, being able to deal damage in front and heal from behind was quite similar.

Of course, the most important thing was—

"The significance of a Job Change Item doesn't end there." Shen Mo looked meaningfully at Tsunade, who was still apparently delighted.

"Oh? What else is there?" Tsunade became curious.

"That is—" Shen Mo swept a glance over the others before saying the key phrase, "eligibility to purchase the Limited Chest Series!"

That was the most crucial part.

A mere ten-thousand-Trading-Point Holy Light Seed—did she really think it could make her a true Paladin?

Dream on.

This was not a game world. She could not level up by killing monsters. The growth of Holy Light, the learning of skills, and specialized weapons—

Everything that came afterward could only be obtained through chests.

That was Shen Mo's plan—

If this was not a game, then he would create the appeal of a game within it.

After experiencing the power of Holy Light, people would gain a basic understanding of everything that followed and look forward to it even more.

The Medicine Chest alone covered too broad and miscellaneous a range.

The same was true of Sasuke's Swordsmanship Chests and Naruto's Strength Chests.

If Sasuke obtained a Sword Body containing a specific Sword Intent, then the only things useful to him afterward would be skills derived from that Sword Intent or higher-level Sword Bodies containing the same Sword Intent.

If he opened Sword Bodies containing other Sword Intents, or even other techniques, they would be nothing more than dead weight!

Of course.

The broader the range of a chest, the more likely it was to produce unexpected items.

They still retained a certain amount of appeal.

That was the difference between a broad prize pool and a prize pool with an UP rate for a specific category!

As the chests' levels and prices grew higher and higher,

cultivating the anticipation of opening them also required more refined methods. It could no longer rely solely on the Chest Opener's initial wish.

Shen Mo had already arranged everything properly.

Tsunade in front of him, however, clearly had not yet realized the significance of the Limited Chest.

She merely asked curiously, "What does the Limited Chest Series mean?"

"It means that only after becoming a Paladin can you purchase the Paladin Series Chests." Shen Mo glanced at Tsunade, who seemed unconcerned, and casually added one more sentence. It instantly made Tsunade's breathing grow rapid.

"The Paladin Series Chests have a far higher chance of producing resurrection than ordinary Medicine Chests, because—resurrection is one of the skills possessed by advanced Paladins in the first place."

Tsunade as a holy healer was true to the name in every sense, so hurry up and hand over those recommendation votes (><)
