NovelEnglishAfter battling hard the entire afternoon, I’d like to say my progress with Carmine went pretty well.
{Name: Carmine
Class: Resistance
Job: Paladin (LVL 79), Knight (LVL 15)
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUnlocked Jobs: Commoner (LVL 4)
Race: Human}
The fight was a bit anticlimactic, but it did show how much of a difference an extra job can make, especially when amplified by my skills. It was no wonder my other girls were able to keep up with Carmine despite being mostly 20-30 levels under her. Now, of course, her high Paladin job had made her my strongest teammate. Salicia couldn’t even compare to her sister at the moment, although she had gained two jobs from Bandit King, which was part of the reason for her strength.
{Name: Salicia
Class: Rogue
Job: Swashbuckler (LVL 40), Knight (LVL 5)
Unlocked Jobs: Bandit: (LVL 50), Commoner (LVL6), Thief (LVL 25), Pickpocket (LVL5), Shaman (LVL2), Bandit King (LVL 50)
Race: Human}
Unlike her sister, Salicia had unlocked many different jobs. Most of them were self-explanatory, but I was interested where Shaman and Swashbuckler came from. Of course, I didn’t equip Bandit King on her. I didn’t know if Bandit King would alter her temperament and behavior, and it was my way of neutering her abilities. Swashbuckler seemed the only other fighting class she had that wasn’t outlawed by the church, so I went with that.
As for Knight, I gave the third token to her after she bugged me about it nonstop. She was hoping to give herself the Knight job just like her sister. Apparently, after seeing her sister have something, she wanted it too so she could feel closer to her. She could never be a Paladin since the church would never give her their blessing, but the Knight job just required her wearing me down.

I wasn’t sure how the token knew, but unless a lord passed the token to a Knight with their consent, the token wouldn’t activate. That’s also the reason that I didn’t pick up the Knight job for myself. After all, I didn’t have any pure fighting jobs.
I depended on True Hero for all my weapon needs, but it was lacking in many areas involving speed and defense. It was a bit of a self-sacrificing job, often allowing the user to be damaged in the name of smiting a foe or helping an ally. This usually wasn’t a problem for me because I was a White Mage foremost, and I could heal any damage True Hero forced me to absorb. That didn’t mean I wasn’t interested in a better ability for close-combat fighting, and Knight would have been perfect.
Yet…
{You cannot use your Knight token.}
I suppose it made sense. I couldn’t become my lord. That would just be silly. That’s when a thought came to me. I pulled out the counterfeit tokens. I didn’t know exactly how similar to the original tokens they were. I knew that they had no limit in that they could give people jobs. Since they weren’t given to me by the King, and probably came from the Imperial Cloud Meadow, maybe I could use them unreservedly. I didn’t think Lord Reign personally handed the token out to every Knight he made, so these might function differently.
Thus, I picked a token and used it. I didn’t get an error, nor a white flash. It was more like a puff of miasmic darkness.
{You have resisted demonic entrapment.}
{You allowed yourself to be marked by demonic miasma. You have unlocked the job: Demonic Knight.}
