I CAN UPGRADE MY TALENT IN EVERYTHING

Melissa was busy with her bakery work, and she just returned to their house not knowing that danger was lurking around the corner. Suddenly, a figure appeared out of nowhere and bypassed the Chimera Ants monitoring with teleportation. Melissa was startled by the sudden appearance of the stranger, but before she could even react, the figure spoke.

"Hello, Melissa," said the figure with a voice that sounded all too familiar.

Melissa's eyes widened in shock as she looked at the figure closely. The man bore a striking resemblance to her son, Fein.

"Fein, what are you doing here?" asked Melissa, confused.

The figure chuckled softly and gave a small smile. "I'm not Fein, Melissa," he said. "But I can understand why you might think that. I'm Niki..."

Melissa was now even more confused than before. "Niki? Are you my son's friend, then?" she asked.

The stranger gave a small, mysterious smile. "Let's just say that I'm someone who has a lot of interest in your son," he replied.

Melissa's expression changed from confusion to fear. She realized that this person might have some ill intentions towards her son. "What do you want from me?" she asked.

"I just need you to come with me for a little while," said the stranger. "Don't worry, I won't hurt you. But I can't promise that my associates won't if you don't cooperate."

Melissa's fear grew stronger as she realized that she was in grave danger. She tried to run, but before she could even take a step, the stranger was already in front of her. He knocked her unconscious with a swift, well-placed hand to the side of her head.

Niki teleported out of the house with Melissa in tow, leaving no trace behind. The whole incident happened in a matter of seconds, and by the time anyone realized what had happened, it was already too late.

Melissa's vision became hazy as she slowly lost consciousness. The last thing she remembered was Niki's face, with his piercing red eyes and his uncanny resemblance to her own son, Fein. She couldn't understand what was happening, and the shock of it all made her feel sick to her stomach. As her eyes closed, she was certain that she was never going to see her family again.

eαglesn?νel Niki held Melissa's limp body in his arms, a small smirk on his lips as he teleported away. His plan was working perfectly, and he knew that Fein was going to be in a world of hurt when he found out that his mother had been kidnapped. He had been keeping tabs on Fein for some time now, and he knew that the young man was powerful, but still inexperienced. Niki had been alive for over a thousand years, and he had the experience and the knowledge to take down even the strongest opponents.

As Niki appeared in his secret lair, he gently laid Melissa down on a bed and stepped back, admiring his handiwork. He had managed to take down a member of Fein's family, something that he knew would hurt the young man deeply. Niki was proud of himself, and he couldn't wait to see the look on Fein's face when he realized what had happened

...

Kidd tried his best to keep his composure as he stood in front of the masked members of Laughing Phantom. His mind was racing, his thoughts consumed by memories of that fateful day. The day he betrayed his closest friends, Fein and Michael, and ended up paying a heavy price for it.

He could feel the weight of their gazes on him, judging him for his actions. But he knew better than to show any signs of weakness. He had to keep his wits about him if he wanted to survive this ordeal. 𝑓𝔯e𝚎𝒘𝗲𝚋𝒏oѵ𝒆𝒍. c𝗼m

The room was dimly lit, illuminated only by the faint glow of the monitors that lined the walls. Niki, the leader of Laughing Phantom, stood in front of him, his face obscured by the shadows.

"Kidd," Niki spoke, his voice cold and calculating. "I trust you understand the gravity of your situation."

Kidd took a deep breath, trying to steady his nerves. "I do," he replied, his voice firm.

"Good," Niki said, his eyes boring into Kidd's. "Because I need you to prove your loyalty to us. Fein and Michael are a threat to our organization, and we need you to help us take them down."

Kidd's heart skipped a beat at the mention of Fein and Michael. Memories of their friendship flooded his mind, and he felt a pang of guilt wash over him.

But he pushed those feelings aside, reminding himself that he had made his choice. He had betrayed them, and there was no going back.

"I understand," Kidd said, his voice devoid of emotion. "What do you need me to do?"

Niki's lips curved into a sinister smile. "We have intel that they're searching for our base," he said. "I need you to help me to leave a letter to them. It's time to execute my grand plan."

Kidd felt a knot form in his stomach at the thought of facing his former friends. But he knew he had no other choice. He had to prove his worth to Laughing Phantom if he wanted to survive. 'Well, I'll just leave it under a stone.' He didn't really want to face his Fein and Michael again.

"Consider it done," he said, forcing a smile.

Niki nodded, his eyes glinting with satisfaction. "Good. We'll be monitoring your every move, so don't try anything funny."

Kidd nodded, his mind already racing with plans on how to sabotage Fein and Michael's attack. He knew it wouldn't be easy, but he was determined to do whatever it takes to survive.

As he left the room, Kidd couldn't help but think back to that day in the Forest of Death. The day he lost everything he held dear. But he knew that he couldn't dwell on the past. He had to focus on the present and do whatever it takes to survive in this ruthless world.
