Talent Swallowing Hero

After killing his enemy, Leo had to extract the talent from the bodies within a specific time and if he missed that time, then he could not extract the talent.

Earlier, he was eyeing three talents and the system reminded him about it who was so busy toying with the remnant spirit.

'I completely forget about it.'

Leo decided to swallow the talents before toying with the remnant spirit.

Since he was already captured inside the Golden Furnace, Leo didn't worry too much about it and hurriedly went to the bodies that had the talents he wanted.

'This b*stard…how dare he use the sword I blessed him as a meal for his sword.'

The remnant spirit started racking his brain to come up with a plan to escape from the golden furnace.

However, he was unable to control his anger whenever he thought of Leo's actions of feeding the Abyssal Demon God's Sword as a meal for the Arcane Silver Sword.

Another trait of the Abyssal Demon God was Anger. Whether the insult was small or big, the Abyssal Demon God could only calm down after killing the person who insulted him.

Therefore, the remnant spirit started becoming restless as he eyed Leo with bloody eyes.

'Ding,

The host used the [Talent Swallowing Ability] and extracted the talent [Soul Bullet].

'Ding,

Leo used the special effect of the Fragments of the God Stones as swallowed one talent after another and in no time, three new talents were added to his [Hero's Interface].

'Ding,

At the same time, Leo checked the information on his three new talents.

Since he had chosen them, Leo was obviously curious about the effects of the talents.

'Even though they were not great, I can use them in various situations.'

Leo already knew those talents were not very powerful and didn't expect much from them; however, he knew where to use them and how to use them.

'Time to upgrade them.'

Without wasting time, he converted another 1000 [Supreme Points] into ten million [Promote Points].

'Ding,

The host spent 1313000 [Promote Points] and upgraded the talent [Soul Bullet] from level 1 to level 9.

'Ding,

The host spent…

'Ding,

The host spent…

Since they were all normal talents, Leo had to spend 1.3 million [Promote Points] each and in total, he spent around 4 million [Promote Points].

'Even though there were no special effects for these talents, their existing effects improved quite a bit along with their usage time.'

The special effects and additional effects were exclusively for the special talents. Hence, Leo was not expecting too much from it.

Even though the normal talents might unlock some additional effects upon upgrading, it was very rare.

'After using these talent awakening crystals, my followers' ability will rise even more.'

Looking at the five shiny crystals in his hand, Leo silently thought in his head.

After swallowing the talents using the [Talent Swallowing Abilty], Leo devoured the remaining corpses using [Absolute Devour].

To his surprise, he triggered the [Absolute Devour's] special effect five times and received five talent awakening crystals.

'Now, it is time to toy with the remnant spirit.'

After taking care of all the things, Leo walked towards the Golden Furnace in which the remnant spirit was trapped.

<Y-you…did you…already become…the…apostle…of…that…person?>

When the remnant spirit saw Leo walk closer to the Golden Furnace, the remnant spirit shivered a little as it asked Leo.

"Huh? What?"

Leo frowned when he heard the remnant spirit's words and thought, 'What is he speaking? Did he lose his mind after getting trapped in the Golden Furnace?'

<T-that explains why my apostle seal kept disappearing…Keke>

'Huh?'

Amidst his shivering, the remnant spirit suddenly started laughing maniacally, making Leo frown.

<No…you are yet to become his apostle; however, he must be already watching over you. No wonder you have so many talents and skills. You are definitely going to become that b*stard's apostle>

<Once others know about that, I wonder how long you are going to survive…keke>

As Leo heard the remnant spirit's words, the frown on Leo's face grew bigger.

'System, what is he talking about?'

Leo felt the remnant spirit had not gone crazy but telling something. So, he asked the system about it.

Whether the remnant spirit was telling the truth or he was speaking just a bunch of words before his death, Leo thought he could tell it as long as he heard the system's answer.

Leo had already thought that the [Talent Swallowing System] was an inheritance of a powerful God-like existence; however, whenever he asked the system about it, it would evade his question.

However, when he heard the remnant spirit's words, he could tell his assumptions were almost right!

Nevertheless, he wanted to hear it from the system or at least…he wanted to see what the system would say about the remnant spirit's words.
