"Hey, so, there are a couple of jobs we can choose from, and I want your input," Kyle said as he turned to Swamp Dragon.
Swamp Dragon nodded. "What are the jobs?"
Kyle gave Swamp Dragon a quick overview of the jobs.
"I know what you will probably choose," Kyle said carefully, "but I'm not-"
Swamp Dragon held up his hand to stop Kyle. Then, a small smile appeared on his face.
"You don't have to worry," Swamp Dragon said. "While I do want to defend our home against the Cult, I know that not everyone is willing to take such a risk."
"I will become a defender as my solo job. I will not force my own morals on you, and I won't think less of you for your choice," Swamp Dragon said.
Kyle sighed.
Right now, Kyle felt mixed.
He was happy and relieved that Swamp Dragon didn't pull him into defending the worlds from the Cult, but he also felt a bit bad for not supporting Swamp Dragon.
'Just ignore it!' Kyle thought. 'Just be glad that you don't have to risk your life in such a dumb way!'
A smile appeared on Kyle's face. "Thanks!" he said. "Then, what do you think about the Rarity Hunter job? I'm interested in that."
Swamp Dragon raised an eyebrow. "That job is just as dangerous as being a defender," he commented. "Do you know what a Dimensional Collapse is?"
Kyle nodded. "Yep! It's when someone or something of far too much power appears in unstable space. This will cause the Dimensions to rapidly solidify, and anyone inside the area of effect of the Dimensional Collapse will be sent to random Dimensions."
Swamp Dragon nodded. "Yes, that's what happens. Why are you interested in taking such a dangerous job? We could be sent to the Elemental or Hell Dimension."
"That's the thing," Kyle said with a smirk. "The Elemental Dimension is the only bad one. The Hell Dimension is super empty. There are barely any beasts or people. Even more, the world will realize that we are in the wrong Dimension within just a couple of seconds. I'd take this chaotic kind of danger over a planned assault by a foreign power."
"I mean, what's more dangerous, randomly traveling across planets and maybe running into a powerful beast, or being the target of a Seeker who leads thousands or millions of people?"
Swamp Dragon furrowed his brows.
"I can see what you mean," he commented. "Fine, I would be willing to also become a Rarity Hunter."
Kyle nodded as he turned back to the interface. He quickly chose Rarity Hunter as his team job before returning to the list of solo jobs.
'I'm not going to risk my life for such shit pay,' he thought as he crossed out the option for defending the world from the Cult.
'I'm also not a teacher.'
'That leaves Exchange Seeker and Primal Territory Defender. Hmmm…'
'Primal Territory Defender would give me several True Battles, but I will already get that from my team job.'
'Should I really become an Exchange Seeker? I mean, I just got here, and I'm going to leave already? Also, I don't even know how many resources I get from the affiliate power.'
"Assistant, I got a question," Kyle said as he looked at her.
"I'll gladly answer any questions you might have," she said politely.
"What's better, being a Core Disciple in an affiliate power or having access to Class C resources?" he asked.
"Class C resources are the lowest available resources," Assistant answered. "However, the Array of Stars is very powerful, and even their newest members are treated better than the Inner Disciples of most Lower and Higher Primary powers."
Kyle waited for more, but it seemed like Assistant was done talking.
'She didn't say Core Disciple.'
