Aaron has reincarnated into this supernatural world where almost anything is possible. His life is mostly similar to the stories of reincarnation.
He led a simple and boring life in the past world. He died of excessive work, totally forgetting that 'rest' is something that existed in the world.
As usual, he reincarnated into a middle-class family in this supernatural world. He felt cliché, remembering the stories where MC usually goes through the bullshit. He felt that even in this new world he may never find 'rest'.
When he was five, something happened, something that the usual poor protagonist doesn't go through. His system awoke or something. He never fully understood what happened. All that he knew was the message he saw.
This is all that he saw. He tried to contact using different ways, but there was no response. This went on for days, weeks. Finally, he understood it, there is no understanding of the situation.
He realized that he would awaken the Death Mage profession. So from that day, he concentrated on that. On the off chance that he may be wrong, he didn't neglect the information about other professions, but what he concentrated on most is about Death Mage.
'All that hard wouldn't go to waste now.'
No matter how much confidence he was in the reincarnation cheat, he doubted in his heart about the awakening. Now seeing it, he started to believe in his cheat a bit.
Moreover, he was quite happy with this awakening.
Unlike others who either pitied or snickered at him, his thoughts varied. This is because of his talent.
Class/Profession: Death Mage, S-Rank
Talent: Super Growth (SS-Rank) (Unique)
[With super growth experience, attributes and skill points gained are ten times as much. Moreover, the progress of the skills is also increased by ten times.]
Free Status Points: 0
Skills/Spells: Summon Undead (0/5) (Rank 0); Death Lash (Rank 0);
[Summon Undead spell can summon undead creatures like skeletons, zombies, ghosts, etc... The quantity and quality depend on the rank of the skill. The spell caster can choose one of the undead as chosen summon. Specific spells are required to summon other undead.]
[Death Lash is a debuff that when applied on an enemy will eat away their health. The health lost depends on the level of the spell. The spell lasts until the affected's is dead or if the debuff is removed by a priest or a potion.]
This is what his status screen showed. This isn't a reincarnator's special, but is only available if one is awakened.
At the moment after awakening a profession, everyone is at Rank-0. Only by earning experience can one increase their ranks.
After successful awakening, everyone would be bestowed with two skills or spells to start their journey. These two are basic skills and are the same for everyone who awakened that profession.
If one wanted more skills or spells, they can only learn, but this is quite costly.
Skill or spell levels can be increased by using skill points or by unleashing the skills or spells as much as possible.
For Aaron, these problems are of no consequence.
With SS-Rank talent, Super Growth, he can earn experience and skill points at a much higher rate than anyone. Even the skill progression by using increases at a rapid rate.
This talent is indeed a useful talent as he is a death mage.
When in combat, a Death Mage would use the summoning undead spell to summon his undead. Only by summoning a new undead, it is considered as using the spell. As long as old ones are alive, even if they were retracted into undead space and summoned again, it isn't considered a newly cast spell.
Only when the old summons dies and a new summons appears, it is considered as casting new. This is kind of a disadvantage for a Death Mage or even a Necromancer or any death related summoners.
Of course, there are some advantages here, that everyone overlooks.
Undead summons can be created and placed in undead space beforehand. Pulling them out won't cost any Mana. It would be like the instant cast.
Most debuffs don't stack over each other if they are cast on the same target. They can only be cast on the new enemy or old enemy if a priest removed the debuff.
So unlike normal attacks, a Debuff spell wouldn't increase its level just by using. It would consume a lot of skill points. So even though Debuffs are very useful, no one would learn more than one or two.
This would have been a problem for Aaron. He is a Death Mage, and that means he has to learn a lot of Debuffs. This is why professions like his never gained any importance, no matter how powerful they looked at the start.
With the Super Growth talent, Aaron would not face any such problems.
Within another half an hour, the awakening process was completed.
There are three halls where the awakened assembled, each defining combat or support or life professions.
Each of the three needs different resources and follows different paths, so the division is.
Aaron is inside the Support Class hall, as his profession, though combat in nature, was considered as support.
A teacher appeared in the hall and spoke, "Okay, everyone here is of support class, but you are not below combat class nor above life class. No class is above, even though one class earns more than the other. Though earning is considered main, one class can't proceed without help from other classes associated with it.
I can give you an example. Let's take a warrior or knight or any melee class. They use weapons like swords, spears, daggers, etc... These weapons can be created by a blacksmith.
How can one make a weapon without materials? The ore is mined from mines by miners.
Here, Warrior belongs to the Combat profession, while both Blacksmith and Miner belongs to the Life profession. See, one profession is dependent on other professions to survive in this world. So don't look down on other professions. I know most of you omit this, but as a teacher, I have to say for one last time.
Now concerning you, In a month you will enter the test dungeon which will decide your future. So this month, prepare well for the test. That's for today, see you in a month.
Before you leave, at the school exit, you can get a free professional skill or item."
After that, everyone left the school, not before picking their choice. It is a free giveaway after all and no one would say no to that.
As for Aaron, he knew he needed spells more than the items. So he chose a spell that would be useful for increasing his combat power in comparison to others.
