It would be weird if these were most expensive skills, only reason why they were at the end was because they had limit to how many can be taken.

'Jack of all trades description'

Jack of All Trades:

Able to use every weapon of Soul Eater class, removes handicap for buying skills outside of choosen sub-class.

'Handicap?'

"Hey, what's handicap for buying skills from other sub-classes."

[Skills from other sub-classes are always available to buy. Buying skills from other sub-classes costs 70% more. Buying from sub-classes of other classes is not possible]

'That's a lot, but being able to buy it at all is good as well, even if this skill sounds simple it's definitely amazing... Hmm... no, it's not worth buying, my innate talent is only focused on one weapon so I will just use machete anyway. Wait, does this also mean I can buy skills without handicap from other sub-classes in Mage? This is definitely something helpful in later stages. I will keep this skill in mind, first I have to see what other one does.'

Soul Monster:

Able to summon monster that is bind to your soul, you can choose between 4 starter monsters. Monster will become stronger from feeding it souls. Every time monster advances to next stage skill will advance with it. In later stages of this skill your monster will be able to summon permanent monsters that will follow it's commands.

'This is definitely good too, but it won't be of immediate help, and I will also have to give souls to it to I become strong, which means I will lack souls in comparison. However I like this skill more, fact that will have whole monster pack under me definatly sounds appeling. I don't have enough IP to get other two but I want to at least check them.'

Free Will:

You can change shape of your weapon temporarly. Stronger the user better the effect.

'Wow.. that's really good element of suprise. ' Alex thought this skill was very powerful, however when he saw description of the last skill... he could just feel depressed at his IP.

Exhaustless:

Stamina is no longer a problem! After activating this skill you won't need to worry about getting tired, your soul will provide however much stamina you need. Strength is raised for 15% while active. Passive effect- sleep is not needed.

'Holyy... just the fact that you don't have to sleep is already amazing, not to mention other two. But since it uses soul as provider user will probably have to rest a lot after using this skill too much. Even so, this is amazing skill. Unfortunately I can't take it...'

After checking Soul Eater limited skills he checked limited skills for his other class, however nothing piqued his interest over there, that he could pay for at least. 'So it's this skill than'

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Average status for humans before picking a class was 5 per every stat. Because Alex both had Mage and Soul Eater his Strength and AP (Ability power or magic damage) would rise to 10, reason why everything except magic related stats were higher than normal was because he was training before and with better body than average. As time hit zero room changed.

Alex looked in front of him as dark wooden door appeared, what was weird was that it didn't have a handle. Door slowly opened, it didn't make any sounds. After door opened he could see white room, from this angle he could see table at the center, same color as the door, with flower pot on it. Alex slowly came up to the door, after getting closer he could see half of a sofa and black hand from someone that was siting on it. He slowly entered the door while looking left and right with his head, just like how parents teached kids to look on both sides when passing a street. In the room he could see more than five people, every one of them had confused expressions. Everybody just looked at him not saying anything, Alex doing the same as them just sat at the sofa, it seemed like they were waiting for something. Next to him was a door with number 8 above it.

Soon after he came into the room other doors, similar to one he came through, opened, number started to go down as people stepped on white, seemingly infinite, floor. After number indicated 0, new numbers appeared above the door |15:00|, after second passed it showed |14:59|, it was timer for something, again...

"He-Hey, does anybody know wh-what's going on?" Alex looked towards voice, it came from one of the short white people in the room.

"Tsk. How can anybody know?" Answered guy that looked to be Asian. 'Wait what? I can understand him.

There were all different kinds of people here, from old to teenagers, from taller to shorter, from brighter to darker colours, people from all around a world were here.

"We should all introduce ourselves, together we can figure it out, my name is Noah, I'm from America."

"I agree, my name is Tanya, I'm from Russia, seems like we can understand each other." Owner of the voice was beautiful blonde women with deep blue eyes with height of around 180cm(5'9"), she looked like she was in her mid twenties. And so people continued to introduce themselves, Alex also introduced himself when it was his turn. All 15 of them introduced.

"It's good that we can all understand each other, I think that we should all tell our experiences in grey room and our classes. I started with 28000IP and found out with innate talent search I have A-Rank in Warrior class with 20% increased health, so I took sub-class Guardian which focuses on tankiness and defense. At least that's what.. I guess... system told me?" Noah was also in his mid twenties he liked to spend his free-time playing games.

Next in the line, was same as before, Tanya. "I started with 19000IP, picked Pugilist, I learned after picking it that I have A-Rank in it."

'So much about that, they didn't even mention their skills, while she didn't even mention her sub-class... Pugilist have sub-classes right?' Alex also decided to keep his skills and second class a secret, when circle again made it to him he quickly choose his words. He decided to make it seem like he was average, and picked IP number that was above what most were given. He realised that a lot of people actually didn't even have IP to check their Innate talent

"I started with 8000IP, I picked Mage class, Lightning Mage, I also didn't check innate talent before taking it but I was lucky to get A-Rank, after buying skill I wanted I decided to take this Machete artifact with leftover IP." After hearing that he bought Machete artifact as mage few wanted to make fun of him but decided not to. Alex was a bit intimidating with that in his hands.

"Hahaha it actually turns out that I'm amazing! I could pick two classes! Bone Manipulator and Assassin thst are both rare classes! And also started with 35000IP!" Alex looked towards around 13 year old excited kid. 'Bone Manipulator and Assasin? That's like really bad affinity, he obviously just picked them because they had [Rare] next to them."

"Good for you, I didn't even know about two classes, so what's your innate talent at them." Asked Noah with smile towards this arrogant kid. Even if he hid it well Alex saw behind his mask. 'Wow, he's really hiding his irritation well.' It wasn't just Noah many were irritated at this arrogant kid, and a lot of them also jealous after hearing his IP and that he could pick two classes, two.

"Hmph, like it matters they are both rare classes anyway, you with one normal class can't compete with me."

'Yup this kid is a lost cause. Only one with S-Rank is that girl Samantha, and it's also in Healer class. But damn, she's really hot and around my age too. Wait, wait, buddy it's not time for girls now.'

"There is only thrity seconds left." Evreryone just stared at the clock with anxious expressions waiting for 00:00 to show. They had to pick classes and skills, which means... They will have to fight something right?

At same time bell sounded, door started to slowly open. Wind could be felt on their skin, dirt and high trees could be seen, unknown fruits were hanging, vegetation that was new to them. It was like a otherworldly jungle that reeked of danger.

"Gulp. Let's go, we will go with formation we discussed." Everyone nodded at words of their temporary leader Noah while griping their starter weapons and wands in their hands.

Their formation was a very good one. Noah was at the front with two other Guardians, they were ones with most defense and health equipped with shields they got as starter gear, behind them were two Warriors that picked Spearman sub-class, next in the line was a Samantha as Healer with Sub-class Priest, Summoner, which didn't have any sub-class, arrogant kid, just because of his age, he actually didn't even say his name and Alex as last one in center. Ones that were at the end of the formation were mages, everyone had at least one skill. Noah picked everyone positions. Luckily youngest was that kid which turns out was 13-years old with oldest one being some lady with age of 40. Reason why Alex was at the center even if he is mage, which wasn't really wrong, was because he could also use his Machete in case of something getting to the center.

"Hey Samantha, there is definitely bright future for us, we both have amazing classes, I think we should stay together we will become amazing duo." Summoner was smirking at his talent while flirting. Before he couldn't even think about having confidence to speak with someone of her calibar. But now he was also amazing!

"Sorry, but please refrain from talking unneeded information, I need to focus, you should do the same." Samantha answered while not even looking at the guy talking, her eyes showed extreme focus on her surroundings. She remained Alex of girl in the gym with hat and earphones focused on her workout not even giving a chance for man that were approaching to talk.

'Tsk. Bitch.' Summoner wasn't happy about this rejection

'Hahaha. Well that was quick f*uck-off slap' Good think Alex wasn't one to start talking.

"Everyone stop!" Noah ordered as they stumbled across something. Alex made serious face, immediately forgetting about funny rejection.

It was giant lizard around 2m long, it had blackish-green skin with sharp teeth. After monster turned it's head it saw his new prey.

KREEEIKKKK. After horrible screams it started to run.

"Mages start long-range attacks!" Noah was quick to react. And battle began.
