I CAN UPGRADE MY TALENT IN EVERYTHING

Chapter 152 The Undercurrents



A red barrier appeared in front of Jacob, shielding him from the violent fluctuations of Jackson's aura.

He glanced at the wall that got destroyed and cracks that started form to his red barrier.

"Is this the strength of a person that one step in S-rank?" Jacob muttered.

After a few minutes, the aura disappeared. Jackson breathed deeply and marveled at his newfound strength even if he was just one step from ascending. He scanned the room which looked as if a disaster had struck it specifically.

Jacob retracted his barrier, he heaved a sigh of relief, because his barrier needed only one tap before it would crumble.

"Bastard, I'm still in this room." Jacob cursed.

Jackson looked at him and says without emotion. "I have a sense of measure. That damned Fein. He's growing as a threat that should be removed. but after I rank up, I would take care of him this time personally."

"But how would you take care of him with a Viscount as his backing? Not to mention, he has a Legendary Beast on his side." Jacob clicked his tongue.

Jackson smiled, "We have Maxwell on our side hehe... And I can deal with him, I would lay a perfect ambush."

"Do you really think that Maxwell who is known for his willfulness would support us?" Jacob raised his eyebrows.

"Why not? Fein had survived. That means Shawn Murphy had already gone to the Kingdom come. We can use this fact to stimulate him, and get his support."

"Well, that's indeed a good idea." Jacob pondered the feasibility of Jackson's proposal.

Jackson sat in his previous place, he closed his eyes before leaving a word. "Don't disturb me again this time, or I would f*cking demolish you even If we knew each other for a long time. And don't forget to send a letter to Maxwell!"

Just like that, Jackson became still like a statue, violet flames started to cover every inch of his body.

'Is this the method he got from that book? it really looks abnormal.' Jacob scrutinized the violet flames carefully with his eyes.

There are only three ways for promotion. The first method is, that a degu user needs to use his degu frequently and exhaust it. Because that's the only way to increase degu capacity and improved the control of the person. Second, degu users can eat the meat of the beast, and exercise intensely. This has been the first discovered way when the degu energy was discovered. One can also eat magical fruits and medicinal pills. And lastly, A degu user can also grow stronger with a degu method. It's a technique to refine degu energy, and there are different qualities of degu methods divided by F-A. It doesn't mean that there's no S. It's just they didn't discover a method with that quality yet. The degu method can determine the quality and quantity of one's degu but not much. The most important function of the degu method is its ability to speed up the promotion process.

'It might be an S-rank?' A trace of greed appeared in Jacob's eyes before it disappeared quickly.

He knew the current affairs. With his strength, he can't do anything about it. Jacob left reluctantly.

...

A palace was built in the middle of trees, mosses covered the palace and the small tears in the bricks couldn't hide the small damages that it had received accumulated. The palace's height is about 70 meters, and it has a ladder in front of it, with a black door that was covered with strange languages.

Inside the palace, an old man was sitting on a bronze chair, his hands rested on a table that was even darker than black. The old man has a white paper in his hand, and he read it silently.

In a few minutes, he finished reading the whole content of the letter. He took a deep breath before he crumpled the paper in his hands.

"Fein was alive, and the strongest member of my faction died?" The old man muttered.

'That bastard Lucius got lucky huh... How about slaughtering the Family of Fein Bonifacio? Hmmm... No, Lucius should have already accounted for that know that motherfucker.' The old man began tapping the table.

After a while, a glint emerged from his eyes. "Murdock!"

The old man's man low voice echoed through the castle. In just a few seconds, the door opposite him burst open, and a figure with a dark gray furry body appeared with the face of a wolf.

"Yes, Supreme Leader?" The werewolf gulped looking fearfully at the old man.

The old man smiled. "My arch-enemy manage to invite a pesky genius on his side, make sure to monitor the kid's every movement. And contact Jackson, send him a letter back that I am willing to keep in check Lucius."

"Yes, lord Maxwell" Murdock saluted and left quickly.

"You dare to kill one of the strongest members of my faction. This Fein Bonifacio can't determine what's good and bad for him. If you can survive Jackson, let me play with the people surrounding you." Maxwell grinned.

He was a vengeful person that won't let any signs of provocation pass. That's also the reason why he was feared by everyone. Furthermore, he had groomed Shawn Murphy and spent a huge amount of resources to train him. Shawn was one of the members that had the potential to reach S-rank within 15 years in his faction. But he didn't expect that he would die at the hands of an unknown genius.

Now, he can imagine his Arch-enemy, Lucius Vladimir secretly smiling at him mockingly. His calm expression disappeared, and he felt a fire burning in his heart from fury.

"Damned Lucius! Damned Fein!" Maxwell's pupils reddened.

He quickly formulated several plans to get his revenge quickly. Of course, Fein is his main target. He wants him to suffer, as he watched his friend and his family die.

'Don't blame me for being ruthless!' A bloodthirsty smile appeared on his face.

He was looking forward to seeing their suffering, Maxwell has no scruples about using underhanded means as long as it fulfilled his goals.
