I’m Alone on the 100th Floor Episode 029
9. Former job (2)
The reason why there were only priests on the sixth floor of the tower could be summarized in two words.
Bullying.
Their story was that the ‘Field Guild’, one of the top guilds, judged that they were short on healing personnel, so they sent down several rankers belonging to the guild and forcibly changed the civilians who had given up on their previous jobs to priests.
“Recently, your guild members tried to attack the upper floors and got hit hard. I heard that a lot of the paladins and priests with healing abilities died… I think that might be the reason.”
“No, you can do that as you please? Why don’t you just tell them to go fuck themselves and choose the class they want to do?”
“Oh my… For civilians like us who haven’t even reached the 10th floor, the rankers are opponents that are difficult to even make eye contact with.”
“no way?”
“Yes. There are three civilians who died for protesting against them. They are too scared to fight back. How can we resist?”
“under.”
“What a crazy… …
A sigh burst from Serin’s mouth, and veins appeared on Eugene’s forehead.
“Why do people below you complain when you take a dump?”
The authors of the so-called Top Rankers are committing such reckless acts… When I was on the 77th floor, I ground my teeth in frustration at my past of expecting the Rankers to come up.
“Are all the rankers here just like this?”
When Eugene asked while twirling his index finger pointing at my head, Serin answered with an embarrassed expression.
“Not everyone. Just some.”
As the story of the ranker and the other person continued, the priest who had been telling the story to the two of them cautiously asked them a question.
“Excuse me, what is this person’s level?” Even at a glance, the rough-mouthed young man’s level seemed higher than that of this ‘guide’.
“Level 10.”
“???yes?”
The priest blinked, thinking he must have misheard.
“It’s level 10.”
As Eugene briefly removed the level shield, the level that had been displayed as a question mark was revealed.
[Seon Yu-jin]
[Level: 10] The priest’s mouth fell open at the level that was briefly revealed.
“Poem, ten… ten level?”
The priest’s level was 12, two levels higher than Eugene’s.
“Don’t look at me like that. I’m stronger than you, hyung.”
“her……
When he found out that Eugene’s class was ‘Beginner’, he was about to fire his eyes wide open like missiles.
“By the way, controlling classes? I thought that kind of thing only happened in games… …
Serin, who realized the seriousness of the situation, muttered with her chin resting on her hand.
“If it’s a field guild, it’s a guild that’s as big as Black Rose. It’s one of the five representative guilds of the so-called tower.”
“A place like that?”
“It’s not that what they’re doing on the 5th floor is right. Are the guild’s circumstances that urgent? That’s what I’m thinking.” Before he was falsely accused and kicked out of the guild, the Field Guild didn’t have that many priests.
Rather, there were more priests than other guilds, so they lent priests to other guilds as mercenaries… It was hard to understand.
“What’s on the 47th floor?”
“I don’t know. I think it’s around the 77th floor out of the 100th floor.”
When Eugene shrugged and answered, the priest who had been eavesdropping on their conversation gaped open-mouthed.
‘What are you talking about? Are you perhaps not a ranker but a crazy person? Have you lost your mind because you can’t adapt to the top environment?’ The two people, who didn’t care at all about the priest’s expression, turned around after finishing their conversation.
“Thank you for the information.”
“Then I will go down and see.”
The priest, who was about to say something at the sight of the two people turning their bodies at the same time like a married couple, closed his lips.
‘They’re crazy. Let’s not get involved.’
The priest, who had been clicking his tongue in pity while looking at the level 52 Serin, looked at the scarecrow again with a gloomy face.
“Should I just go crazy?”
Eugene muttered as he turned his head left and right as he passed the last scarecrow and faced the stairs leading down to the fifth floor.
“I’m looking forward to something.”
Seorin, standing next to Eugene, looked up at the stairs and spoke.
“I’m a little worried.”
“What? Field Guild?”
“No.” Given what he’s shown so far… I wasn’t really worried about Eugene facing the Field Guild.
“Then? Drug Guild?”
“Of course I’m concerned about that too, but… …
“It’s good to worry about that, but how about you start trusting me a little more? A guide can do his job as a guide. Wouldn’t it be more beneficial to develop one trait instead of spending that much time worrying about it?”
“No. I don’t want to harm myself or anything.”
“Don’t call it self-harm. If you’re going to do it, call it training.”
Eugene, who was muttering bitterly about his own efforts, asked what he was so worried about.
“If it’s not a guild issue, then what are you so worried about? My job?”
If she ever brought up the subject again, saying, “Why don’t you consider a different class?” I was going to give her a hard time.
“What if… my job doesn’t work out?
“Right?”
“What?” The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
“Right now, you’re stuck at level 10, and you’ve gained additional abilities as experience continues to accumulate, right?”
Serin, who was thinking with her chin resting on her hand, accurately guessed Eugene’s situation.
As she had guessed, Eugene’s current abilities were on a different level from those of an ordinary climber.

[Seon Yu-jin]
[Level: 10]
[Class: None]
[Title: Terminator]
[Strength: 10(+1,352)]
[Agility: 10(+982)]
[Intelligence: 10(+973)]
[Luck: 10(-9,999)]
[Unused points: This
The basic number of points that an individual climber can earn for leveling up once is 3… but in Eugene’s case, the situation was a bit different.
[You cannot level up further since you have not changed jobs.]
[Excess experience points can be converted into additional abilities.]
This was because of the rule that you couldn’t level up if you didn’t change jobs, and the rule that if leveling up was blocked, the experience points that should have been used for leveling up would be converted into additional abilities.
“Is that right?”
When Eugene, who was sweating for no reason, answered yes, Seorin lowered the fist she had been holding to her lips and muttered with a worried expression.
“If you are unable to advance because your abilities are abnormal… …
Serin, whose words had been trailing off, swallowed what she was about to say after checking Eugene’s expression.
“There wasn’t! There won’t be!”
Although he tried to smile and replied that it had never happened, Eugene’s expression, which had once turned pale, did not return to normal.
“That kind of thing… … I was just thinking about changing jobs, but I never thought about the possibility that I wouldn’t be able to change jobs.
“The method for changing jobs is similar to using the basic shop. There are basically no trials on the 5th floor, and it’s simply a job change… Hey, are you listening?”
At Eugene’s expression that looked somewhat empty, Serin asked cautiously.
“Maybe I can’t do it.”
“What?”
“Former??????
The reason Eugene was so shocked by Serin’s guess was because he thought that it could actually happen.
“Generally speaking, the things that I thought, ‘Oh, surely that won’t happen?’ usually turn out to be true.”
“yes?”
As Serin tilted her head, not knowing what Eugene was talking about, Eugene’s gaze turned to his status window.
[Luck: 10(-9,999)] This terrible number.
This wasn’t good luck, it was bad luck.
“No. I’m just talking to myself.”
≪……2”
“ha.”
Eugene, who had a bad feeling about the tower going down, sighed and stepped onto the stairs leading down to the 5th floor first.
“Okay, just a moment.”
He started to say positive things to Serin, who was heading to the fifth floor following her slumped shoulders.
“Do you think you can’t change jobs because of your abilities? That’s impossible. I’ve never seen anything like that on the bulletin board either.”
“Well, there must have been no one like me. A level 10 climber who gained four digits in additional abilities and then changed jobs… Was there anyone like that?”
“Uh… Yes? What did you say?”
Serin asked back with a dumbfounded expression after learning that his additional ability was in the four digits.
“No, you won’t be unable to change jobs because of your abilities! If you can’t, it’ll be because of your title or traits… Serin, who realized too late that the words she had said to try to calm things down had only added fuel to the fire, covered her mouth with her palm.
“Ah. I see. I guess I can’t do it because of that.”
When Eugene, who was leading the way, muttered in a sullen tone, Seorin quickly picked up the conversation.
“Oh, on the contrary… wouldn’t that really allow me to transfer to a different class?”
“Other classes?”
“Isn’t that what happens often in fantasy novels? Everyone else is of an ordinary class, but the main character acquires a hidden class that is different from others… That kind of case!”
Eugene, who was walking down to the 5th floor looking straight ahead, turned his head briefly at the sound of Serin’s voice speaking as brightly as possible.
“Neither a warrior, nor an archer, nor a magician, nor a priest, nor a thief… they are a completely different class.”
“Umm… …
Eugene tilted his head and answered as if he didn’t know.
“The top is a beggarly place, of course, but it’s fair to people. I don’t think there are any hidden classes… …
“Fair… right?”
Serin, who had been staring at Eugene for a moment, hurriedly added.
“There are a lot of hidden places, right? Like the prison hidden on the 7th floor, or the 15.5th floor that climbers use as a shortcut.”
“Hmm??????
“So, isn’t there something like a hidden class? People just haven’t discovered it yet?” Eugene eventually burst out laughing at the guide’s desperate attempts to cheer him up.
“I wish that were true.”
The window of the ‘current floor’ that Eugene and Seorin had been keeping open as they came down the stairs was refreshed.
[Current floor: 5th floor]
This was the former floor.
