In the end, Jack only sent gifts to two countries, the Republic of Palgrost and the Hydrurond Dominion. The gift could be special items or gold coins. For gold coins, Jack was free to input the quantity. After a discussion with the others, Jack chose to send each country 30,000 gold coins as a gift.
He sent delegations bearing messages to all countries except the Liguritudum Realm. Every message contained the news that Jack was now the king of Themisphere.
For Verremor Nation, a warning was included as Jack previously planned.
As for the Republic of Palgrost, since this country's relationship with Themisphere was already friendly, Jack tried to request permission to establish an embassy. Thaergood informed Jack that a reply from Palgrost might take a week. Peniel told Jack to not have his hope up. Normally, it would take several attempts before a request for an embassy was agreed upon. There was also a chance that Palgrost made a counter-request for something.
Jack didn't mind. At least he had taken the first step. Once the request for an embassy was agreed upon, he would propose an alliance treaty. His target was to at least ally with Palgrost and Hydrurond first.
Befriending Hydrurond might take longer since its relationship with Themisphere was still neutral. Once their relationship improved, Jack would try establishing a trade route with that country.
"All right! The last screen, ladies and gentlemen! I'm sorry to have kept you till so late," Jack said as he closed the foreign overview screen and switched to the next one.
"We are at your service, Your Majesty," Isabelle said. The others expressed the same sentiment, which Jack appreciated.
"Royal Guards Overview?" Jack read the title on the screen.
The screen had two panels, Royal Agents and Special Classes.
"Is… Is this…," Jack pointed at the special classes panel.
"I mentioned before that most faction has special classes, right? A kingdom faction is sure to have one as well," Peniel said.
"Do you… Do you mean, I can appoint these special classes to the person of my choosing?" Jack asked.
"You are the king, aren't you?" Peniel returned his question.
"F*ckin-A! All right! Now, all my classes will be special classes. Let's choose a beastmaster special class for me!" Jack exclaimed as he clicked the special classes panel.
Inside, he saw a series of special classes. They were divided into three categories based on their grades. Normal, second-class, and the highest grade was first-class.
"Not to burst your bubble, but a sovereign may bestow a special class on his subject. He can't give himself one," Peniel said.
"What the…! What kind of stupid system is this?!" Jack spat.
"It is what it is," Peniel shrugged.
John was laughing by the side, which prompted Jack to scold him, "What the f*ck are you laughing at?"
"I am simply laughing at fate. If I know I can get a special class like this, I wouldn't have offended the merfolk by blackmailing them," John answered. "Mine mostly gives advantages in an aquatic environment. Let's check the ones available here. If they are good, maybe I should just change to the one offered here?"
"Better not," Jeanny disagreed. "Special classes are hard to come by. I bet the ones here are also limited. We already have special classes, it's better if we give them to our guild's core members who were still without one."
John didn't object. He was just kidding about changing his special class.
Jack was still sour about missing the opportunity to get a Beastmaster special class, but he didn't dwell on it. He checked each of the categories.
For the first-class special classes, there was only one available slot for each elite class. This showed how first-class special classes were rare even for a kingdom faction.
As for the second-class special classes, there were three slots for each elite class. For the normal special classes, five slots were available.
There were 216 slots in total.
Everlasting Heavenly Legends had grown significantly as of late. They had filled up most of their 5,000 member counts, with more applicants waiting for news. They would have to wait until their guild level increased to level 5 before they could take more members in. At their current pace, it shouldn't be long.
As for their core members, it had also grown. They had spent quite some time with each other, through difficulties and struggles. With Jeanny's acute judgment, she could identify the ones who could be trusted. There were almost 500 players who were considered their core members now.
The 216 slots wouldn't be enough for all the core members. But then again, the core members also didn't exactly have their classes evenly distributed between all twenty-four elite classes. More favorite classes like Berserkers, Assassins, Gunners, and Elementalists were more abundant compared to elite classes like Reavers or Bards.
"I will go back and check our core members' data to determine who should get these special classes," Jeanny said.
Jack nodded. "You do that. If possible, gather them here tomorrow so I can bestow these special classes on them. The earlier they got these classes, the better their development."
"Don't worry, I will make it happen tomorrow," Jeanny said. At the same time, she was already sending mass messages to the core members, informing them to stand by tomorrow. This way, they could be available at once after she decided on the selections.
Jack was still staring at the list of first-class special classes. Mainly his attention was on the Beastmaster's special class. That special class was called Royal Beast Lord.
He tried clicking on it. The system asked for a target. The target had to be a player and that player should be within a certain range from Jack. A list of nearby players' names was displayed. He tried clicking on his own. The system responded with a voice that said, "Invalid choice."
Peniel glared at him since she already told him it was impossible.
Jack sighed. It was so close yet unreachable. He guessed it couldn't be helped. It was not his luck yet. He would look for Beastmaster's special class somewhere else.
