Talent Swallowing Hero

‘Roar’

‘Die’

However, Leo could check his new talent, and the two supreme-ranked beings rushed at him.

“Why are you in such a hurry to fight me, a lowly rank 9 hero?”

Leo scoffed at them and said, “I need a break. See you soon.”

‘Swoosh’

Leo entered his secret dimension to hide from the supreme-ranked beings as soon as he finished his words.

No matter how many talents and skills Leo has, he could not fight a supreme-ranked being head to head, not to mention that currently, two of them were rushing at him.

Hence, he didn’t hesitate to hide and recover for a while. At the same time, Leo thought he could devise a plan to deal with two supreme-grade beings.

“Where did he go?”

“We have to kill him today at any cost.”

The Wyvern King and the Drake King roared at his subordinates to find the human who killed the Ogre King.

[Ice Feathers]

[Snow Storm]_-.

[Lightning Strike]

[Acid Rain]

After the sudden death of the Ogre King, all the Ogres following his orders lost their battle morale.

Using this opportunity, all the rank 8 heroes used their powerful talents to clear the entire Ogre army within a few seconds.

[Heaven’s recovery]

After using their full-powered talents in a single go, all the rank 9 heroes became tired; however, Freya, the vice leader of the Graceful Swans, used her level 9 talent.

‘Swoosh’

Because of her talent, the entire sky brightened as small light particles fell on everyone, and two things happened.

One, if those light particles fell on the humans, they recovered their injuries, and the energy they spent on using their talents was recovered.

Two, if those light particles fell on the monsters and the mutated beasts, their tough skins burned a little and temporarily slowed them.

‘What kind of talent is this? I think I should just hide for now.’

Since Vladimir was also a monster and only a rank 8, he was affected by Freya’s talent. So, without hesitation, he jumped into one of the shadows nearby and disappeared without a trace.

“Everyone, let’s go for the second round.”

Soon, all the heroes reached their peak condition and rushed to kill more monsters and the mutated beasts.

“Let’s kill these annoying pests before hunting him down.”

However, in the next second, the Wyvern King and the Drake King changed their thoughts and decided to kill the rank 9 humans, causing massive damage.

Even though they knew killing Leo was important for their future plans, they needed their subordinates because the supreme-ranked beings compete with the number of subordinates they have.

The stronger subordinates a supreme-ranked being has, their authority would be stronger.

Therefore, they wanted to kill the rank 9 heroes killing their subordinates.

“Everyone, focus on killing the healer.”

In large-scale battles, the healers should be killed first; otherwise, their opponents would recover from their injuries.

So, they focused on attacking Frey.

“Do you think you can touch my vice leader?”

Nevertheless, the squad leader of the ‘Graceful Swans’ stood in front of Frey with two long swords in her hands, two battle axes on her back and two daggers on the belt around her waist.

She was like a war goddess who started killing all the monsters and the mutated beasts coming at them.

She changed the weapons from swords to battle-axes to daggers and swords, killing the incoming monster with an excited smile on her face.

‘Squad leader is very strong.’

Julia, the new recruit of the ‘Graceful Swans’ was shocked by her battle performance of Valerie and instantly became her fan.

…..

In the secret dimension,

‘System, you still didn’t answer my question. Why did I get talent when I killed the Ogre King and not for the first supreme-ranked monster?’

After entering the secret dimension, Leo asked the system why he was rewarded more than when he first killed the supreme-ranked monster.

‘Ding,

Since the host has upgraded the system, the rewards he received naturally increased.

‘So, it was because of the system upgrade.’

Leo nodded and asked, “Also, what is this [Supreme promote point]? Is it used to upgrade the supreme-ranked talents?”

Instead of getting [Promote points], Leo received a [Supreme promote point], making him a little curious; however, from the name, Leo guessed its usage.

Nevertheless, he was unsure about it as it was just a guess.

‘Ding,

The host guessed right. It can be used to upgrade the supreme-ranked talents. The host’s talent [Talent Promoter] collected a single [Supreme promote point] from the Ogre King’s body.

‘Good.’

Leo revealed a slight smile and thought,

‘Even though I am yet to upgrade my talents to the Supreme-rank and I also don’t know how many [Supreme promote points] I need to upgrade them, it is better to collect as many [Supreme promote points] as possible before becoming a Supreme hero.’

The special talent surprised him that he could upgrade his talents even after becoming the supreme hero.

‘Anyway, it will take some time for me to become a supreme hero. So, let’s not think much about it and focus on the current situation.’

Leo pushed his thoughts about the future and finally opened the user interface to check the new talent he got from the Ogre King.

‘Ding,

Talent name: Battle-axe mastery (Level 1).

Talent Type: Passive.

Effects: 1) When the user holds a battle-axe, his strength and defence increase by 10 percent.

2) The damage dealt by the battle-axe will be increased by 10 percent.

Soon, the information about his new talent appeared before him, making him clench his fist in excitement.

‘Who would have thought I would receive a passive talent?’

Leo’s entire focus was on the ‘Talent type’ because the passive talents were very rare to awaken.

Therefore, even with his [Talent Swallowing Abilty] or [Absolute Devour], it was almost impossible to awaken them because if fewer heroes awakened, it would automatically reduce his chances of stealing the passive talents. After all, only a few lucky heroes could awaken them.

‘Let’s see how much the effects of the talent will change if I upgrade to level 4.’

Without hesitation, Leo added his new talent to the [Talent Promoter] and upgraded it to level 4 using [Promote points].

‘T-this is…’

Leo could not help but rub his eyes looking at the information on the holographic screen.
