Reincarnated With A Summoning System

Luna opened her Class Options interface for the first time since entering this world and found that she had a wide variety of options available to her that were very different than the ones that she had before.

[Assimilator]

The Assimilator class absorbs the skills and powers of those they defeat to bolster themselves but at a cost. The true nature of the Assimilator slowly changes to match that of the beings that they have absorbed, becoming more like what they have ingested in their search for the most rapid power transition possible.

[Puppeteer Queen]

Grants large numbers of [Noble] permanent summons to supplement the Lieutenant and Commander type summons of the Puppet Master Class, and unifies them into an [Empire], an expanded Raid Party with no member limit.

[Princess of War]

There is no rule in this world more absolute than the right to keep only what you can hold with your own power. The Princess of War increases the combat power of all skills they use and gains bonuses for defeated opponents crushed underfoot.

[Demonic Artificer]

Increased ability to craft Rune Weapons, and use Runes as Power Words to attack and defend.

There were also a collection of Classes that she had seen before, but much to her disappointment, neither Flesh Crafter nor Watcher in the Dark was an option for her.

That meant that she couldn't directly follow in her father's footsteps, and it was likely due to the difference in species. There wasn't much she could do about that, but some of the new options looked promising in their own ways.

Artificer could be fun, and Luna could see the benefit in being able to just form a rune in the air and use its ability. Since she could actually read the Runic Language, she would have a huge advantage over others as well, as she understood the complexities of forming compound words with Runes.

Assimilator sounded like it might have too big of a drawback. Sure, it was likely really powerful, but if she stopped being herself, then what would she be? Luna liked herself as she was, even if she missed her tail.

An empire of her friends also seemed pretty cool, and combined with her Puppet Master Skills, it could be incredibly broken on the power scale, but taking over continents or the world was more of her mother's thing. Luna had dreamed of it, but doing it through politics sounded just a bit too boring for her.

That left Princess of War as the best option that she could see, so Luna dove into the description of its class abilities.
The main class ability was [Versatility], which Cain used to cast a single skill at his current power level, and that was a great ability to have, in Luna's mind. Especially for Summons, which were a minor loophole in the System.

[Versatility] Only affected the designated spell, but once a summons was summoned, you could change the target of Versatility and summon the next batch the same way. They didn't revert to lower power just because you were using the skill on another spell later. The real limit was for skills you needed to keep active, like armor, which needed constant mana input. It would cancel if you changed the target of Versatility.

Then it had skills to improve magical damage, agility, and physical damage, give her magical claws, dragon breath of her own, and even scaled armor.

But the deciding moment was the final skill of the tree.

[Crown of the War Goddess.] This shining Golden tiara, set with a single large Ruby, increases all damage done by the Princess of War and her allies by [10x Level] Percent.

Heck yes, it would give her an actual crown.

She would need to wait until level 300 for that, but she was getting there quickly, thanks to the quests that they keep getting in this world.

Even now, the disciples had a Sect Quest to make the Sect Master proud of them. If they could do that they would get a large bump of experience, which would help Luna merge with her "borrowed" cultivation core, as well as bump up her level.

Luna wasn't sure if Cain had noticed, but he was already nearly level 600, having progressed rapidly after their arrival and with every quest that he completed, but Luna was sure that she could catch up if she was given enough time.

Luna picked her new class, and then looked at her points. She was level 235, so she had 35 points left after finishing up all the skills in Puppet Master. It was a bit sad that she wouldn't get the ability to transform random people for fun as Cain had gotten from Flesh Crafter, but there were still some good things in this class for her.

The obvious ones to start with were ten points into melee damage, twenty points to max out [Draconic Armor], and five points into [War Aura] which added a chance at intimidation on hit.

That was the whole starting tier of the Class, instead of focusing on what looked like the Attack, Defense, and Control trees.

A little bit of a lot of cool things had to be more fun than one really strong cool thing. At least Luna was pretty sure that was how it worked.

"Did you get what you needed, Princess?" Cain asked as Luna returned to the land of the living.

"Yup. When I finish this skill tree I get a real crown." Luna informed him happily.

"I am glad you have your priorities in order. What are the next skills you are planning to take in the skill tree?" Cain asked.

Luna thought for a moment as she looked at the tree then nodded. "On the attack side, the next skill to take is [Champion] which gives me a bonus for one day after defeating an enemy. That will be the next one that I take I think. If it's not what I really want at the time, I will take [Inspiring Aura] to give a bonus to my friends."

That seemed well thought out, so Cain wouldn't argue with Luna's chosen progression in her class. Even if she did only pick it as the top option because it gave her a crown at the end.

"Your class updated? Does that mean you will be even harder to defeat now?" Sabbat asked, looking at Luna's information with her system interface.

"Maybe a little, since I got some new skills. But the real bonus will be that I have real armor now." Luna told the Mage, then activated [Draconic Armor], which caught Tena's attention.

"No fair, that is even cooler than mine. Mine is just simple scale armor, but that is awesome like your whole dress is made of Dragon Scales, and it even has a dragon mask helmet." Tena complained.

"It's because she's a higher level. Every hundred levels or so you will have the option to upgrade. Don't just take anything though. Hold off until you have acquired the skills to get something that is clearly better than the class you have. You all have advanced classes already, so it could be hard for you to get a proper upgrade." Cain explained.

"Got it, boss. I will wait and see what I get when the time comes up. Is there an option to smite lying and lecherous scumbags?" Jen asked before anyone else could speak, looking up from her attempts to polish her shield.

"Crusader is good at that. They can detect lies and reveal them to everyone in the area, and once they are stronger, they can compel the truth from others. Very useful for the vengeance-minded woman." Cain laughed.

"So, you all will be wanting to head into town early tomorrow to get registered for the group event, right? I will be sure to wake you all up in time to get breakfast before first light." Cain informed them, while the Disciples looked at him in shock.

"How did he know that was what we wanted? It was supposed to be a surprise. That won't hurt the quest reward, right?" Penny asked the others.

"It only says we have to make him proud of us, so I don't think it needs to be a surprise. But if he already knows, he won't try to stay in bed, right? This might be better for everyone, and the earlier we register for the team event the better our odds of getting a weak opponent." Tena suggested.

There was something wrong with that logic, as the strongest Sects would sign up earliest in the day, other than the few weak Sects who showed up bright and early so they wouldn't get crowded out by the stronger groups.

Luna changed into her pajamas and climbed into Cain's bed. "Alright, I will sleep now. The earlier I sleep, the less time I need to wait before we can go."

That logic had issues as well, but subjectively, she wasn't wrong, so the others all prepared to settle in for the night after grabbing an evening snack.
