Overlord: Welcoming the Birth of the King
Chapter 10: Female Priestess? Planning a Special Profession

At that moment. 

“Kaya!” A panicked female voice called out from the crowd. 

Because of the appearance of the adventurer teams, the crowd gathered on both sides was quite dense. A little boy, no more than five or six years old, was pushed out from the crowd. 

Suddenly, he stood right in front of the "Four Weapons" adventurer team. 

The little boy lost his footing and fell to the ground, his arm hitting the floor hard, breaking the skin and causing fresh blood to flow. 

“Ugh… Waa!!” 

The pain in his arm, combined with the panic of being pushed out of the crowd without his mother nearby, caused the little boy to cry out loudly. 

Suddenly, an unexpected event occurred. 

The leader Su Kama, with black-dyed hair and a cold expression, who was walking at the very front, brightened in her eyes. 

For most adventurer teams, increasing their team’s fame was very important. 

“Lilinette…” Captain Su Kama turned her head calmly, preparing to ask the pink-haired Lilinette for help. 

But before she could speak, 

Lilinette had already quickly stepped forward, the long flaps of her pure white clerical robe splitting on both sides with each stride. 

Her fair thighs, tightly wrapped by large patterned stockings, were fully exposed to the crowd’s view. 

A wave of gulping sounds immediately arose from the crowd. 

“Little brother, it’s okay, sister will take a look at it.” 

Lilinette crouched down with a gentle smile, raising her palm toward the little boy’s injured arm. 

“Minor Wound Healing!” 

A soft white light radiated from Lilinette’s palm. Under the glow, the wound on the boy’s arm instantly healed. 

Feeling the pain disappear, 

the little boy stopped crying. Tear drops still hung at the corners of his eyes as he looked up at Lilinette, who was smiling warmly at him. 

“Thank you, sister…” 

The little boy spoke softly, but before finishing, he shrank his neck back, his face showing fear. 

For some unknown reason! 

Although the sister before him was smiling, the little boy felt that smile was somewhat frightening. 

Clang! Clang! 

The faint sound of armor rubbing and colliding came. 

Captain Su Kama, clad in full armor, walked over and bent down to look at the little boy. 

To the surrounding crowd, it seemed she was checking the boy’s injury. 

However, in reality, 

Captain Su Kama coldly whispered to Lilinette in a harsh tone: “You pervert, put away that almost-devouring gaze of yours. I don’t want a team with some reputation to be rumored as having a lolicon because of you.” 

Upon hearing the captain’s warning, 

Lilinette stuck out her rosy tongue and licked the crystal-clear drool at the corner of her mouth, then spoke a little disappointedly and quietly: “It’s the unripe fruit that’s the most tempting.” 

The little boy shrank his neck again. 

He didn’t understand the conversation between the two pretty sisters, but he only felt even more frightened by them. 

Behind them, 

the other two male members of the “Four Weapons” team exchanged a glance and sighed simultaneously. 

In the crowd, 

a middle-aged woman anxiously pushed her way out and hurried over. Seeing the little boy’s condition, she finally let out a sigh of relief. 

“Thank you all, thank you.” 

The middle-aged woman bowed repeatedly, her face full of gratitude and nervousness as she spoke. 

Though adventurer teams were not well received by the nobility, they still held a certain reputation and fame among the common people. 

Su Kama and Lilinette stood up at this moment. Their expressions returned to their previous demeanor as they waved their hands righteously, indicating there was no need for thanks. 

Tang Zheng’s attention was no longer on this little commotion. When Lilinette had just cast the healing magic, his attribute panel naturally showed a reaction. 

“Skill discovered: Minor Wound Healing (Rank 1), requires base Female Priestess, Priest profession, level 1 to 7, current conditions not met...” 

“‘Genius’ profession triggered, conversion successful, learning conditions met, consume 1 skill point to learn?” 

Female Priestess? 

Tang Zheng looked at the prompt on the attribute panel, a bit stunned, but an unusual gleam appeared in his eyes. 

He didn’t intend to keep watching the spectacle! 

Tang Zheng turned and quickly left the place, planning to find a quiet spot to organize his thoughts. 

It was noon. 

The sunlight was somewhat scorching. Based on Tang Zheng’s earlier inquiry, it should be around May now, but the temperature was already comparable to June or July of his previous world. 

The “Nazarick Great Cataclysm” was expected to arrive in the other world around mid-July, four years from now, so Tang Zheng still had a little over four years. 

The time was tight! 

But Tang Zheng knew better than to rush his profession construction. 

The arena was located near the capital city, just below a hill, surrounded by many plants and trees, separated from the densely packed houses of the commoners on the city’s outskirts. From above, it looked like a green belt. 

Tang Zheng found a spot under a tree to sit down and pulled up his attribute panel.

…… 

Because Tang Zheng had mastered the “Minor Wound Healing” spell, the “Genius” general profession now included two convertible base professions: “Female Priestess” and “Priest.” 

At this moment, 

Tang Zheng’s real surprise and interest was in the “Female Priestess” base caster profession. 

Judging by the name, 

this was a female-only profession. In the “Overlord” game, there were subtle differences between the “Female Priestess” and “Priest” professions. 

Simply put, 

the “Female Priestess” leaned more toward magic, and the higher-level “Advanced Female Priestess” had certain bonuses in healing. 

Of course! 

That wasn’t the point Tang Zheng cared about. The fact that a profession only accessible to females could be converted by the “Genius” profession surprised him beyond expectation. 

The appearance of this female profession 

might mean he gained a “female character buff,” enabling him to take some professions only available to female characters. 

Because this involved a special profession! 

From the anime and light novel versions, the special professions Tang Zheng knew were only: 

Bone King’s [Eclipse]! 

Cocytus’s [Asura]! 

Shatiya’s [Valkyrie]! 

Mare’s [Harbinger of Calamity]! 

Demiurge’s [Evil Origin]! 

Victim’s [Martyr]! 

Yalberd also had a special profession, but neither the anime nor the light novel revealed its name in detail. 

Tang Zheng only knew that Yalberd’s special profession granted the ability to transfer death onto his armor, and this could be done three times. Combined with resurrection items, 

theoretically, killing Yalberd would require four deaths! 

Of course, besides these special professions, 

there were also [World Champion], [World Calamity], and others, which were not special professions Tang Zheng currently needed to consider. 

In the “Overlord” game, obviously, there were more special professions beyond these few, but in the other world, Tang Zheng had no way even to explore that premise. 

Therefore, his selection of special professions was limited to these few. 

Among these six special professions, the first to be eliminated by Tang Zheng were [Eclipse], [Evil Origin], and [Martyr]. 

[Eclipse], the special profession owned by Bone King, had very clear acquisition conditions: all necromancer system professions had to be learned, and after reaching level 95, it could be obtained. 

It was a special profession only achievable through an extreme profession build. 

Because he understood its structure, Tang Zheng immediately excluded it, as he did not believe he could contend with Bone King under equal professional conditions. 

Moreover! 

He was alone, whereas Bone King had several level 100 tier guardians assisting him. Such an extreme profession build was too easy to be targeted. 

The [Evil Origin] profession needed no explanation—it was clearly a special profession exclusive to the demon race. 

The [Martyr] profession was similar, accessible only to the angel race! 

The remaining [Asura], [Valkyrie], and [Harbinger of Calamity] had less demanding conditions.
