Talent Swallowing Hero

Chapter 109 Another Special Talent



‘This is….a fragment of the God stone?’

Leo was shocked by the familiar stone inside the jade box.

‘From when did these fragments of the God stone become so easy to find?’

Picking the stone out of the jade box, Leo could not help but ask himself.

‘Ding,

The system detected a Fragment of the God stone. Do you want to use the special effect of the item?

As usual, the system notification resounded in his head, and Leo used it without hesitation.

‘Ding,

The host’s [Talent Swallowing Ability] cooldown has been reduced by three months.

‘Ding,

The host can swallow a new talent.

‘Finally, I can awaken the family head’s talent [Heavenly Flaming Lion Tranformation].’

Leo was not expecting to find another fragment of the God stone in the Ambermane family. Nevertheless, with the help of that stone, Leo can awaken a new talent he had his eyes on.

He didn’t devour Liam earlier because he was keeping him for the last after he devoured the other corpses in the Ambermane family.

Even though it was not guaranteed that he would awaken a talent just by devouring Liam’s corpse in the end, Leo believed the chances of awakening his talent were more.

However, he unexpectedly found a fragment of the God stone and removed the three months’ cool down from his ability.

‘Is it because the world assessment is coming closer?’-.

Recently, so many things happened, and Leo learned a few new things.

Hence, he was able to conclude that the appearance of the God stone’s fragment in this world was mainly because of the world assessment.

‘I guess Liam was waiting for one of his sons to become a rank 7 hero before giving this fragment of the God stone.’

Since a Fragment of the God stone could upgrade a level 7 talent into level 8, Leo guessed why Liam didn’t use the fragment of the God stone on the other rank 7 heroes in the family.

‘Should I give this fragment of the God stone to Ryan, Julia, or my subordinates?’

Walking out of the treasure room, Leo thought as he played with the fragment of the God stone in his hand.

Currently, Leo has many rank 7 heroes around them, and they could all use the fragment of the God stone to become rank 8 heroes; however, the problem is, he had to choose one among them.

‘For now, I will just keep it with me and see who needs the fragment of the God stone more.’

With that thought, Leo stored the fragment of the God stone in his storage ring before returning to the dining hall where Liam’s corpse was.

“Master, you are back already?”

Vladimir was surprised that Leo came back so soon.

“Yes. There are not many things in the Ambermane family; however, I am satisfied with what they have.”

The fragment of the God stone was enough reward for Leo.

‘Extract’

Leo didn’t waste time as he placed his hand on Liam’s corpse and extracted the talent.

‘Ding,

Extracting the talent [Heavenly Flaming Lion Transformation].

‘Ding,

Extraction is successful.

Within a few seconds, a fiery red-coloured crystal condensed above Liam’s body which Leo picked and swallowed in a single gulp.

‘Huh? Master can extract new talent already?’

On the other hand, Vladimir was surprised and thought, ‘Didn’t he extract a talent a few days back?’

The shadow vampire remembered Leo extracting [Haunting of the Ecstasy] from Clemens.

According to what he knew about Leo’s talent swallowing ability: Leo could extract a talent only once a year.

‘Did he have a breakthrough in his ability?’

Other than thinking of various possibilities, Vladimir silently remained in his place.

‘Ding,

Congratulations to the host for awakening a new talent [Heavenly Flaming Lion Transformation].

‘Ding,

Talent name: Heavenly Flaming Lion Transformation.

Current level: Level 1.

Talent Type: Special.

Effect: Upon activating this talent, the user will transform into a Heavenly Flaming Lion for a minute with one of the main skills.

Main skills: Fire fang

Soon, a new talent was added to Leo’s list.

‘Since I have a lot of [Promote points], I will just upgrade it to level 4.’

Without hesitation, Leo spent 26000 [Promote points] and upgraded that talent to level 4.

‘Ding,

Talent name: Heavenly Flaming Lion Transformation.

Current level: Level 4.

Talent Type: Special.

Effect: Upon activation of this talent, the user will transform into a Heavenly Flaming Lion for ten minutes with three main skills of the flaming lion.

Main skills: Fire fang, Flaming Fury, and Heavenly roar.

Note: The user can’t use other talents after transforming into a Heavenly Flaming Lion.

‘With a class upgrade from Basic to Elite, it became much more powerful.’

He didn’t have to check the information of the skills to tell how powerful the talent had become because of a class upgrade.

[Fire fang]: The fangs of the flaming lion will be covered in flames and could inflict serious fire damage on its opponents.

[Flaming Fury]: The flaming lion will be covered in flames, and its battle prowess will increase by three times.

[Heavenly Roar]: A special roar that will make the enemies’ will disappear and make them shiver in fear. Even strong-willed beings will hesitate to fight the user.

Nevertheless, he checked the information about the skills that he would get after transforming into a Heavenly flaming lion.

‘Except for the fact that I can’t use other talents, this talent is pretty much an excellent one to have.’

Leo was satisfied with the skill and wanted to upgrade it into an advanced talent.

‘I still need six more basic talents. If I am lucky, it won’t take much time to upgrade the [Talent Promoter] to level 4.’

Leo could upgrade for normal talents by repeated use; however, it would take a lot of time if he followed the same method for special talents.

Therefore, as long as Leo could upgrade the [Talent Promoter], he could directly upgrade the newly awakened talents from basic to advanced class.

“Boss, we finished the task.”

Soon, Leo came out of his thoughts with Dominic’s words.

“Thank you for your hard work. You can return to our place and increase your and your team’s strength.”

Leo saw the huge pile of corpses in the distance and asked Dominic and others to leave now.

“Okay, Boss.”

“Boss, thanks for the sword. I will continue to work hard.”

“Boss, please take care of yourself, and don’t forget everyone needs you.”

Dominic and others said a few words before disappearing into the darkness.

“Vladimir, let’s take care of the pile.”

Soon, a human and a shadow vampire started working on the huge pile of corpses.

One used the devil’s mouth on his hand to devour the corpse, whereas the other drained the blood.

‘Phew…finally we finished it.’

Leo and Vladimir heaved a sigh of relief as the entire pile of corpses disappeared without a trace now.

The blood stains on the ground were taken care of by the shadow vampire’s cloak.

“Let’s go.”

‘Ding,

A new system mission has been generated. Please check it.

Just as Leo and Vladimir were planning to visit the Ambermane family grounds, Leo received a system notification, making him stop in his tracks.

‘A new mission already?’

Leo was pleasantly surprised and opened the mission tab to check the mission.

‘Huh?’

However, when he saw the information on the mission, he frowned.
