I CAN UPGRADE MY TALENT IN EVERYTHING

On Ceterus' body, a huge change occurred. Scales started to emerge on his face and his body. His skin became dark red like the color of magma, his gray hair turned azure, and his pupil turned golden, with a slit in the middle. And skeletal material had enveloped his arms, chest, abdomen, and head.

Gregory, Anthony, and the two of the big three watched the ongoing battle with bated breaths. The battle was just too fast pace and exciting!

"Isn't that the legendary transformation power of the President?" Anthony exclaimed. He looked at the new form of Ceterus with excitement.

Gregory's expression turned solemn. "That's the one he used to subdue an S-rank criminal in the past, and it has a second form."

Ceterus was famous in the degu society, unlike the leader of the QWERTY Organization 'Zero'. degu users knew Ceterus as a man who dislikes injustice. And he had a record of fighting Peak A-rank criminals in his youth.

What really made him famous was his dragon form, which gave him an exaggerated defense provided by skeleton armor. Along with fire and thunder, elemental attributes that boosted the destructiveness of his attacks! Although he can't really harness them that much in his first transformation.

"I hope our friend can last long with that monster." Anthony sighed.

...

Kiba's gaze stayed on the unconscious Azazel as he muttered quietly. "Bastard, you don't want me to overexert myself, but you did it yourself anyway."

"It seems President Ceterus has started to get serious. As expected of Fein..." Kate glanced at Fein's handsome face in the distance with adoration.

"Yeah, even though he's in A rank, he could go toe to toe with the President."

...

Just like that, the crimson light continued unabated. Ceterus stared at the incoming attack with his golden pupils. If one looks closely, one would see White claws replace Ceterus' nails. And behind him, a dark red tail with rough yellow shark spikes wiggled left and right.

BANG!

Ceterus threw an explosive punch to greet the crimson sword light. The mere sweep of his hand produced a shock that sway the environment and produced a powerful air current.

Fein's blazing sword light made a contact with the fist which sliced the claws, then proceeded to the arm. The skeleton plating manage to resist the sword light for a second before it melted from the temperature the sword attack possessed.

"I didn't expect that I would see the Dracotaur transformation someday." His eyes squinted, and he gripped the sword in his hands tightly. "But my attack had long surpassed the S-rank realm."

Just like that, the skeleton protecting Ceterus broke. Blood spurted as the attack finally penetrated Ceterus' arm. But Ceterus didn't even change his expression as if the physical pain can't affect him.

"Even with the defense of my transformation provided, your attack still managed to injure me." Ceterus has a calm expression and the wounds on his arms started to mend themselves and some of the meat chunks regenerate in the blink of an eye.

'Fucking shit! Ultra Regeneration is more cheating than the hyper one! So this is the upgraded version of that one?' At this rate, he knew that he would lose if didn't go all out.

"If you don't have anything else, then I think it's time to end this. Though, I must admit that you're really a monster amongst monsters. If you become an S-rank, I doubt that I could beat you... No, you might even have the chance to claim rank one on the official S-rank list." Ceterus said with a smile.

"That's high praise, but unfortunately this is not my full strength." Fein unsheathed his sword.

He placed the body of the sword on his sword and closed his eyes for a moment. "Scatter..." He muttered and paused for a second. "Flame Advent!" His voice resounded throughout the area.

Ceterus felt a shiver from Fein's soulful voice. Then his eyes widened as the sword of the other party became bright red and scattered in the air.

They appear like small bright red dots and he could perceive in his skin the abnormal rise of the temperature!

"What is that!?" Ceterus became wary. He clearly felt the skeletal armor wrapping around him start to melt a little.

The bright red dots scattered in the sky of the desert. Once gathered, they look like a fiery river of flames that would burn anyone.

"It's fucking hot!" Anthony ran away from the place briskly as he felt his skin crack slowly due to the intense heat. Gregory followed behind and the sweats on his forehead couldn't even fall because they had already evaporated.

"For fuck's sake! This is clearly hell!" Kiba's brown skin turned into dark metal. "Damn, what a sinister ability."

Kate frowned as he saw Azazel's body lit up. "He's subconsciously absorbing the heat energy."

She speared her hands and manipulate the area's magnetic field to surround them. Just like that, the heat disappeared.

"Can boss Fein defeat President Ceterus with his?" Kiba has stars in his eyes.

"Impossible! The gap between A-ran and S-rank is unbreachable." Kate took a deep breath.

"What if boss Fein could create a miracle and be the first to do it?" A smirk appeared on Kiba's face.

Kate and Kiba glanced at each other, and they could see a hint of anticipation in each other's eyes.

...

Ceterus felt a little uncertain. He's obviously an S-rank but now he felt threatened!

'This offensive power had already exceeded S rank too much!' Ceterus had to say that Fein was really in a different league than any younger generation he had met in his life. 'Fortunately, I have an ability that could seal other's abilities.'

'Ability Ban!' He called out the name of his ability in his mind. Then a white substance came out from his chest and flew towards Fein.

Ability Ban is an ability that could seal the active abilities of his target for one minute! It means anyone who had been hit by this won't be able to use or activate their abilities. This is clearly a nemesis of degu users that were mostly reliant on their abilities.

DING! f𝑟ℯ𝒆𝘄𝐞𝚋𝓷oѵ𝐞Ɩ.c૦𝑚

[All your abilities had been sealed for a minute.]

Fein heard the familiar prompt of the system and the content had left him astonished.
