I CAN UPGRADE MY TALENT IN EVERYTHING

Seeing Fein stopped in deep thought made Niki thought that was finally started to consider his proposal.

Fein's mind was reeling with the knowledge that the system he had been using all this time was actually the creation of a powerful being from the 10th dimension. He felt a mix of awe and fear, wondering what else the system was capable of.

Niki, on the other hand, was growing increasingly impatient with Fein's refusal to fuse with him. He paced around the room, his body language tense with anger and frustration.

"Why are you so hesitant, Fein?" Niki asked, turning to face him. "Don't you want to be stronger? To have access to all the knowledge and power of the 10th dimensional being?"

Fein shook his head. "I don't want to lose myself in the process. I don't know what kind of entity we would become if we fused."

Niki scoffed. "You're too attached to your human form. It's limiting you, Fein. You have the potential to be so much more than this."

Fein clenched his fists, feeling a surge of anger at Niki's words. He didn't want to be like Niki, obsessed with power and knowledge above all else.

Melissa watched the exchange with concern, her expression showing her worry for Fein.

"Think about it, Fein," Niki said, his tone persuasive. "We could be unstoppable together. We could explore the mysteries of the universe, gain knowledge beyond comprehension."

Fein shook his head again, his expression firm. "I won't do it, Niki. I won't become like you."

Niki's face twisted in anger. "Then you leave me no choice," he growled. "I'll take the system from you by force if I have to."

Fein braced himself for an attack, but Niki just laughed and shook his head. "Not yet, Fein. I have something else in mind for you first."

Niki nodded, his eyes blazing with intensity. "Think about it, Fein. We are the same person in the end, both fragments of the same majestic higher being. We only differ slightly in personality. But together, we could become the ultimate being."

Fein shook his head, feeling his anger rising. "No, Niki. I won't still do it. I won't become a part of you."

Niki's expression hardened, and Fein could sense his anger boiling beneath the surface. "Don't be foolish, Fein. This is our chance to become something greater than we ever thought possible. And if you don't agree to it, I won't release Melissa. You'll be responsible for keeping her trapped here forever."

Fein's eyes widened at the mention of Melissa. He had almost forgotten that she was there, watching this whole thing unfold. He turned to her, his expression one of concern. "Mom, are you okay? Are you hurt?"

eαglesnovel`c,om Melissa shook her head, her eyes wide with fear. "I'm fine, Fein. But...what is going on? What is Niki talking about?"

Fein sighed, not sure how to explain it all to his mother. "It's...complicated. But we'll figure it out. I promise."

Niki chuckled, his eyes gleaming with triumph. "You two are so sweet. But sweet won't get you anywhere in this world. You need power, and that's what I'm offering you. Think about it, Fein. The possibilities are endless."

Fein stared at Niki, his expression conflicted. He couldn't deny the allure of Niki's offer, the idea of becoming more powerful than he ever thought possible. But at the same time, the thought of fusing with Niki made him uneasy.

As he continued to ponder his decision, Fein noticed Kidd lurking in the shadows, watching the scene unfold. He narrowed his eyes, wondering what Kidd was up to. But for now, his focus was on Niki, and the decision he had to make.

Finally, Fein spoke, his voice firm. "No, Niki. I won't do it. I won't become a part of you, no matter what you say. And I won't let you keep Melissa here any longer. She's coming with me."

Niki's expression darkened, and Fein could feel the anger radiating off of him. But before he could say anything, Fein turned to Melissa and offered her his hand. "Let's go, Mom. We're leaving."

Fein's refusal only served to enrage Niki further. In a sudden movement, Niki's hand shot out and wrapped around Fein's neck. Fein gasped for air as Niki's dark energy coursed through his body. "I won't let you ruin this for me," Niki growled.

Fein tried to fight back, struggling against Niki's grasp, but the odds were against him. Niki's will was overpowering, and Fein felt himself slipping away.

Niki's grip on Fein's neck tightened, and Fein struggled to free himself. "Stop it, Niki! Let me go!" he yelled, his voice strained.

But Niki only laughed. "You're mine now, Fein. You can't escape me. We're going to become one, and nothing can stop us."

Fein's eyes widened in fear as he felt Niki's dark energy start to flow into him. He could feel his willpower being drained away, replaced by Niki's overwhelming desire to dominate him.

Fein fought back with all his strength, his own willpower flaring up in defiance. But it was like trying to hold back a tidal wave. Niki's will was too strong, too overwhelming.

Fein gritted his teeth, pouring all his energy into resisting Niki's control. He could feel his body straining under the pressure, his mind struggling to stay focused.

But just as he was about to give up, he felt a sudden surge of power from within him. It was like a light switch being flipped on, and suddenly he could feel his own willpower surging back to life.

With a fierce cry, Fein pushed back against Niki's dark energy, fighting with every fiber of his being. It was a fierce battle, the two wills clashing like titans.

For a moment, it seemed like Niki's will would triumph. Fein could feel himself being pushed back, his energy draining away.

But then, with a final burst of strength, Fein broke free. He felt Niki's dark energy dissipate, leaving him standing alone.

Panting heavily, Fein glared at Niki. "You can't control me, Niki. I'm my own person, and I won't let you take that away from me." It was his system, coming to his aid.
