Girl Hero: Revenge on Goblins!-Chapter 360: D134. Guardian of Steel

At the entrance of the Life Profession Alliance, which is closely related to the livelihoods of the people, the Hero, barefoot and dressed in simple clothing with a collar around her neck, stood proudly.

Compared to the Six Major Guilds of combat professions, the entrance of the Alliance, which integrated most of the life professions, was bustling with people coming and going, and because the unrest in the city had not yet calmed down, many were hurrying about.

While just a moment ago she was shivering and dared not show herself, now in a Hollow State, the Hero’s expression was exceptionally calm, completely ignoring the gazes of the pedestrians around her.

On a normal day, a girl dressed as a slave appearing on the street would have had the City Guards called within ten minutes.

But the posture of this girl was so upright that even the collar indicating bondage could not conceal her presence, causing no pedestrian to truly view her as a slave.

Adding to this was the sight of a refined man by her side with a wry smile, making the scene even more peculiar to onlookers.

"Whose young mistress is this?"

"Performance art?"

"That collar... the light of Magic Power... an heirloom??? Haha, impossible... it can’t be real, right?"

Whether puzzled, confounded, or shocked, nothing could shake the Hero.

Yet, even though the Domestic Association—where she could Reincarnate into a Maid, the protector of manors—was just a step away, the words of the Gleaming Scale Serpent made her stop, looking puzzled.

"Consider... other professions?" This question seemed to pose a considerable challenge to the Hero, as she stared vacantly and spoke uncertainly.

"Yes." The Gleaming Scale Serpent nodded unflinchingly.

For the current Your Majesty, his dissuasion was futile, but there was another way—to divert her attention.

"Are there any other professions where one addresses others as Master?"

The very thought of the Hero calling someone else "Master" was enough to make the serpent’s Magic Power run wild—yet the Gleaming Scale Serpent remained composed.

If the Hero had normal reasoning, she would realize that ’putting on a maid’s outfit to feel less ashamed’, and ’becoming a maid’ were fundamentally different things.

But discussing this with the current Hero was pointless, so the Gleaming Scale Serpent used his trump card.

"But don’t you think that, when fighting Goblins, other life professions might be more useful than a maid?"

The Hero froze completely.

[Hero’s contemplation (50+ Anchor)]

Unlike the relatively independent Six Major Guilds, due to the special nature of life professions, many professions are closely connected and interdependent.

For instance, creating an Arcane Weapon involves mining, Forging, and Enchantment—multiple processes are needed for creating a powerful weapon.

The knowledge required, unless one is extraordinarily talented, is too vast for one to master alone.

Around the Hero’s neck, the Wind Moon Night, although led by the chief of the Arcane Workshop, had undergone many different Professionals’ assessment and analysis to determine the final forging process.

Thus, at the inception, various Life Profession Associations supported each other, and over time, they formed a unified, massive alliance.

The alliance occupied an area even larger than that of all Six Major Guilds combined, but it was relatively loose; depending on regional differences, the composition of the associations in the alliance varied.

For example, in Border City, there were more associations related to forging, while in other cities known for Medicinal Herbs, the local Life Profession Alliance would typically focus on Herbalism and Alchemy.

For commoners, after completing basic education, if not becoming Combat Professionals, choosing a life profession meant deciding on a career for life, requiring extreme caution.

For the Hero, advancing in Life Profession Level also required learning and practice, and could not be achieved by defeating Magic Creatures.

Of course, for Nobles and Combat Professionals, life professions were not a necessity, although many Adventurers would not resist the additional benefits of a part-time job, it was more like a choice made when their own careers could not advance further;

and for Nobles, life professions were more a matter of diversification.

Even those who were interested in life professions usually would not choose to work directly at the Alliance, but rather pursue deeper studies at a college and then go on to a High-Ranking Profession.

The Count, an Arcane Engineer, was one such example.

At the entrance of the registration office of the Alliance, the Hero, awakened from her reverie by the words of the Gleaming Scale Serpent, nodded repeatedly in sudden realization.

Having completely forgotten why she had come here in the first place, her thoughts immersed in another crucial question.

"Then, which life profession is more suitable for fighting Goblins?" she pondered seriously to herself.

Hearing this, the Gleaming Scale Serpent’s face stiffened slightly,

even though he had successfully directed the Hero’s line of thought, he had only undergone Transformation not long ago, and despite his appearance, his understanding of human society was not much deeper than the Hero’s.

So, what life profession should he recommend to the Hero—

[Anchor result: Healer]

"The recommended life profession..." Just as the Gleaming Scale Serpent was deep in thought due to the Hero’s question, a woman in uniform hurriedly passed by not far from them.

She wore an outfit similar to a Nun’s Clothes, yet lighter, with a veil covering her hair and a special emblem on her chest.

"How about first visiting various professional associations to hear their introductions?" The Gleaming Scale Serpent, having thought of a solution, looked up.
