Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you!

Having dismounted the carriage upon arriving at the Church, Nan Ke was brimming with excitement as he patted his chest and vowed,

"Of course, I have quite a bit of confidence in my integrity. Feel free to trust me completely in this regard."

Kael nodded and said, "His Eminence the Cardinal from the Earth Mother Goddess Church once told me that you Undead have a very convenient way of communicating with each other.

I suppose even if you are far away and unable to contact me immediately, you can still pass on the information of some special ingredients you've collected to me through other Undead."

"That would indeed be a good way," Nan Ke said with a smile.

"If that's the case, then let's begin," Kael said, just as a nun approached him and handed him a book, saying:

"Baron Helois, this is the book you commissioned our Church to find."

"Thank you for your trouble. Also, do you have a spare Prayer Room that I may use? I am willing to pay."

The nun, with a rosy complexion, said as she stroked her chin, "You are too kind, sir. There's no need to pay for such a trivial matter. Please, follow me this way."

Kael nodded and did not refuse. Once they entered the Prayer Room, he handed them two books and said:

"These are the Job Change Certificates required for two professions, which contain some knowledge on skill acquisition. With these, you both should be able to complete the skill job change properly."

Both of them showed surprised and delighted smiles, taking the books from Kael's hands. The next moment, they both heard the system's notification.

[System Notification: You have acquired the Job Change Certificate 'Druid Travel Diary,' and your Level Experience Points are sufficient. Do you wish to change your job to the Druid profession?]

[System Notification: You have acquired the Job Change Certificate 'Shadow Manual,' and your Level Experience Points are sufficient. Do you wish to change your job to the Infiltrator profession?]

The two had already accumulated a portion of experience from tasks regularly issued in their territory and, now having received the Job Change Certificates, were eager to complete the job change immediately.

However, the moment they agreed to the job change, they suddenly heard a system-wide announcement.

[System Update: Netherworld Gate, Version 1.0 Beta Update Announcement.]

[The update clauses are as follows:]

[1. Detection of certain players initiating Druid profession job changes ahead of schedule; now modifying the clause that prohibits initiating Druid profession job changes during the beta period.]

[2. Detection of the indigenous Lancaster Lord, Kael.D.Helois, acquiring the permission to promote the Earth Mother Goddess Church in Lancaster and obtaining the relevant certificates for the job changes to Priest/Holy Knight; now modifying the clause that prohibits initiating Paladin profession job changes during the beta period.]

[3. Detection of certain players' activities extending beyond the confines of Newbie Village Lancaster Territory; now unlocking the beta map for the explored areas, revealing the fog over those regions.]

[4. Release of the expansion pack 'Shadow Wolf Totem.'

Background: In the depths of the Twisted Jungle, the Shadow Wolf pack has become more vicious and bloodthirsty due to the influence of an unknown force. They will breach the outskirts of the Twisted Jungle and launch an assault on Lancaster Territory.

Expansion gameplay tips: Please assist the territorial Rangers and Sentries in their defensive tasks during the continued onslaught of Shadow Wolves against Lancaster Territory. Survive for 24 hours or eliminate 20 Shadow Wolves to receive the beta-exclusive title 'Kill Zone.'

Additionally, the Artificial Intelligence 'AO' will grant special costumes to the top 15 ranked players based on their performance in the 'Shadow Wolf Totem' expansion pack.]

[5. Hall of Fame system is activated.

◆ Player Sister Astate is the first to kill an NPC of certain social status in the game, activating the achievement 'First Blood';

◆ Player Lan Xiao Fish is the first in the game to collect over 40 different species in the Monster Girl compendium, activating the achievement 'Monster Girl Compendium Collection';

◆ Player Coconut Milk Mixed with Green Tea has wandered in the forest for 15 days and successfully consumed 77 types of unusual racial diet ingredients, earning the achievement 'Wilderness Survival';

◆ Player White Shirt Years Cold as Water is the first to activate the Holy Light Protective Shield System 500 times consecutively, earning the achievement 'Cheater']

[Friendly Reminder:

15 minutes later, players will be under system protection, teleported back to the surrounding town and logged off for secondary optimization of the game system.

The optimization details are as follows:

1. Further update the Holy Light Protective Shield System, and penalize players who continuously activate the Holy Light Protective Shield System by lengthening the resurrection time after death;

2. Provide a richer array of NPC interaction options;

3. Enhance freedom further—bugs reported by players during the beta phase regarding bodily controls not matching reality will be improved.

4. Optimize certain game details.

All players should prepare in advance, check their items in time to prevent loss of game property, details of the announcement will be sent to the game forum, please move there to watch]

As soon as the announcement was made, a large number of players immediately took notice.

Even Kael, who had always kept an eye on the game forum for any related announcements, noticed it right away.

Kael knew that "Portal to the Underworld" was not going to promote all base classes during the beta phase.

Or rather, standing from the conditions currently available in Lancaster Territory, the four classes [Druid/Martial Monk/Paladin/Ranger] that could not be chosen during the beta are exactly the ones that Lancaster Territory does not have the prerequisites to offer for class changing.

The primary activity zones for Druids are deep in the ancient forests, but although there are large forests in Lancaster Territory as well, there are no corresponding Druids stationed here, not even a class change mentor.

Martial Monks, Paladins, and Rangers are also in the same situation.

Realistically, the core reason why players can't change to these classes is because Lancaster itself lacks the conditions for these class changes.

But what if Kael took the initiative to intervene? If he followed the normal player class change procedure and gave the players the corresponding class change credentials, was there a chance to trigger a bug in the promotional video?

The facts now proved that it was indeed possible.

However, even the fact that I had already mastered the way to help players change to Priest and Paladin was exposed along with the announcement...

A hint of a smile appeared on his face.

When Kael assigned missions to the players, leading them to the Royal Capital, on one hand it was to fulfill his plans for promoting his novel and laying groundwork for future business.

On the other hand, he wanted to probe whether the game system would undergo some changes due to his subjective actions within "Portal to the Underworld"—

For example, enabling players to preemptively take on Druid jobs that were otherwise unavailable during the beta phase.

"Brother Kael, we've received new instructions from the Earth Mother God; some matters require our offline attention. It seems we might have to leave early today," Nan Ke said hurriedly as time ticked by and they were about to be kicked offline.

Feigning surprise, Kael sighed after a moment, "If that's the case, the matters at the Earth Mother God Sect are more important. Address them promptly; we don't want to keep them waiting anxiously."

Both nodded, and without a chance to say more, a beam of teleportation light caused them to vanish from the Prayer Room.

Kael calmly watched as they were teleported away, his emotions becoming somewhat complex.

He once again turned his attention to the forum where the players were surely having many opinions about the game update. His actions could directly influence the game's progress and even version updates, which would surely attract a great deal of attention.

True to his expectation, as he clicked on the latest announcement in the forum, he could see from the comment section below that the players had already started bustling about it.

Especially as the focus of this update, the players located in the Royal Capital who had activated three Hall of Fame achievements, had decidedly become the center of everyone's attention.

Necessarily, as a person of interest on the forum and nearly seen as an unofficial game operator by the players, Nan Ke already began updating the information he collected during this period in the comment section.

As someone determined to become the paparazzo of "Portal to the Underworld" – Nan Ke, how could he possibly skip this opportunity to be in the spotlight?

He decisively started a new thread, "Various Matters About the Version Update (With Kael's Beautiful Pictures for Floor Control)!"
