Salicia! I hissed at her, but she didnt move.
I told you, she will only respond to Calypso. Unless you try to escape, hurt her, or yourself, she wont move a bit.
I rearranged my jobs and skills. It was at that moment that I noticed something fairly strange. In the past, it wasnt all that unusual for certain jobs to increase a level or two. Experience could be gained by both killing mobs and practicing the thing that gave you the job. For a Cartographer, Id gain levels when I drew maps a bunch. When I cooked, my Cook job was leveled. This happened all the time, but it happened faster when it was equipped, or at least I thought it did.
On top of that, I also gained levels for the experience from my slaves. This was provided through my slave bond. I wasnt abundantly sure how much experience I gained from them, but it was enough to give me an edge. The point being, it wasnt uncommon for some of my jobs to increase levels when I wasnt paying attention. It had also been some time since I had last carefully looked at my jobs.
This was why I was so surprised to find several of my jobs having increased numerous levels. I had also gained a few jobs I didnt even realize I had been training. When did I become an Apprentice Blacksmith? What the heck was a Mimic? Did I get this job because I was stabbed? It felt like I had a month of hard training in a dungeon without any memory of doing it. Of course, that was impossible. The last six days, I had been recovering, first from having my soul nearly destroyed, and then from having my soul infected with a curse.

***Let me know if I missed one. I probably missed one.
Looking through my new jobs, I had to wonder if I was involved in some Demon Lord fight that I wasnt aware of. This kind of growth was just excessive. However, since each subsequent level had higher status bonuses, I wasnt necessarily as powerful as all of that. With my highest jobs at 63, 55, and two 50s, I could probably fight at a level of a normal level 75. However, I also had to consider that where my levels came from various cheats, a Swordsman or Knight who reached level 75 got there from a mass of experience, so even in a fight with someone like that, I wasnt assured of victory.
As for all of those lower levels, fighting on the deeper levels of a dungeon, it would actually only take a day or two to level any given job to 20 or higher. It wasnt necessarily as impressive as it looked. After a job reached 50, it started to slow down significantly. Usually, you accessed the next tier of job when you hit level 50, but since I didnt unlock White Mage Master, it was clear I was still missing something before the system would grant me that job. Then again, I got Blue Mage for some reason? Well, I did make a lot of Portals, I suppose it was only a matter of time.
I eventually decided to remove Dungeon Builder. I was too afraid to remove Dark priest or Demon Knight, but I did bring back True Hero, and then used my fourth job to equip Slave Master once again. Once I had Slave Master active, I sent a message to my girls letting them know I was alright. I was relieved that this didnt seem to use mana, and sat more in the will category. I also sent a message to Salicia. I didnt get a response from anyone. I was certain I sent the message, but I didnt get an answer at all.
Before I could dwell on it any longer, the tent opened, and Calypso walked in. She was just the woman I didnt want to see at that moment.
