Volume 1, Chapter 8: "The Fated Profession"
Short Summary[]
Rodrias is seen having a walk around Serabourg while enjoying the thought that Weed will never be able to find the hidden location for the Special Quest.
Meanwhile in the Lair of Litvart, Weed spends the next week exploring the five floors of the dungeon under the belief that the 100 monsters for the Special Quest are in a secret chamber. Colt follows along, but still refuses to properly bond with Weed, even when fighting leftover goblins.
After three more days of searching, Weed finally locates the hidden entrance in a dark corner of the fourth floor. Entering the secret area, Weed finally comes across, and battles, one of the monsters for the Special Quest; a gigantic worm queen and its babies. Despite getting poisoned, Weed manages to kill the worm and its babies using the Engraving Knife Technique. Weed is forced to leave since he has no antidotes to cure the poison, but he forces said poison upon the unruly Colt to get them back to a nearby village to stock up on Poison Antidotes.
Returning to the dungeon, Weed kills the remaining worms up to the queen boss, and manages to land the killing blow on the boss using Colt as a distraction; finally completing the Special Quest. Weed opens up the treasure box the worm boss was protecting, and finds a parchment left behind by Geihar Von Arpen about naming the person who finds this his successor, and offers an unknown hidden class change. Weed instantly accepts, and to his mortification after seeing his stat sheet, realizes that he had been bestowed the "Legendary Moonlight Sculptor" class.
Despite his disappointment, Weed reads the rest of Geihar's scroll asking his successor to learn the secrets of Sculpture Mastery that he failed to learn. Weed then checks the rest of the treasures, identifying 3 tablets that offer permanent mana increase, and a skill book that grants Weed a rare sword technique with five different movements. Unfortunately, the current Weed only has enough mana to perform one of them.
