Talent Swallowing Hero

"Victor, come forward."

After returning, Leo called all his followers that were at a Squad Leader- Level and started giving them the rewards he had promised them.

Among them, the one who contributed the most was none other than Victor, the shadow vampire.

If not for Victor, Leo would have had a lot of trouble managing all his followers, the city and the other cities.

Leo guessed that if not for the 50 percent contribution he received from all his followers, Victor might have become the [True World Lord].

Hence, Leo started rewarding Victor.

'Ding,

The host used [Talent Blessing Ability] and blessed his loyal follower Victor with special talents [Light Manipulation] and [Dragon Bite].

'Ding,

The host used the [Talent Promoter] and upgraded them to level 9 supreme rank.

Not only did Leo bless Victor with two special talents but he also upgraded them to the maximum level that he could upgrade.

"With your [Light Manipulation], you are no longer at disadvantage against the light-type attacks."

After blessing them, Leo started explaining about the talents, "And with the help of [Dragon Bite], your teeth would become even stronger and ignore your enemy's defence by a lot."

"In short, right now, you can even kill light-type legend-grade beings."

Leo ended his explanation with a slight smile, shocking Victor.

"Thank you for such a valuable blessing, master."

Victor immediately gave a knight salute to Leo and thanked Leo from the bottom of his heart.

As a Shadow/Blood creature, Victor was weak against the light-type creatures and now, with the [Light Manipulation], he would not only gain resistance against the light-type attacks but he could even use light-type attacks.

"Master, what about you?"

Seeing that his elder brother has heaven-defying talents, Vladimir hurriedly asked Leo.

"Actually, I have something better for you."

Leo knew about Vladimir and how could he forget about him?

However, he asked him to wait until he gave out the rewards to Dominic and others.

Vladimir was not the type to wait; however, under his elder brother's glare, he didn't dare to say anything and silently stood in a corner while waiting for his turn.

"Dominic, what kind of talent do you want?"

Unlike Victor, Leo decided to give out the options to Dominic and others.

"I don't need any talent."

However, Dominic shook his head as he already received so much help from Leo and became so much more powerful than he had expected.

"Why am I even asking you?"

Leo knew Dominic would reject anything that he gave; however, Leo knew that having different talents would increase Dominic's survival rate.

Therefore, Leo selected a special talent that he felt would be suitable for Dominic's [Dragon Transoformation].

'Ding,

The host used [Talent Blessing Ability] and blessed his loyal follower Dominic with special talents [Dragon Stamina] and [Dragon King's Aura].

'Ding,

The host used the [Talent Promoter] and upgraded them to level 9 supreme rank.

Just like how he did to Victor, Leo upgraded the two talents he blessed to Dominic.

Whenever Dominic transformed into a Dragon, he would enter into a weakened state due to insufficient stamina.

'Dragon Stamina' would make up for it whereas the [Dragon King's Aura], Leo thought Dominic could intimidate the Dragons.

"When you transform into a Dragon and use the [Dragon King's Aura], you can subdue the dragons without any problem,"

Leo explained his thoughts about the talents, making Dominic bitterly smile.

"You are making me owe you more and more, Leo."

Dominic sighed as he wanted to repay the favours that Leo had done to him; however, he was owing more and more favours to Leo.

"Idiot, if you are weak, how are you going to help me? Only when you are stronger, can I leave this world to you and not worry about it."

Leo replied to Dominic and asked him to not think much about it.

"Yes, Boss."

Dominic had a realization and hurriedly nodded his head.

'That's right! I have to help him take care of this world for him. Without proper strength, how can I stop the monsters from invading the cities?'

Dominic knew the disadvantages of his talents and with his new talents, he could make up for those disadvantages.

"What about you, guys? Do you want to be modest and remain weak?"

After helping Dominic understand those things, Leo asked his other followers with a slight smile.

"Boss Leo, I want a flying-type talent."

"I want a talent like Boss Leo to blast everything around me."

.

.

One after another, Leo started blessing them with the talent they want and at the same time, he used the [Promote Points] he accumulated to increase those talents to the maximum level.

"Just because you have become the peak supreme-ranked heroes doesn't mean you are invincible."

After blessing everyone except for Vladimir, Leo warned them.

"Among the monsters in this world, there would be legend-rank monsters. So, be careful while you provoke them."

"Even if you provoke them, you have to kill them before they mobilize their army to invade our cities."

"Take care of your subordinates and note down all their merit points such that, when I return, we can reward them. Of course, you can also reward them with the resources stored in the city after contacting Victor."

"As I said before, give more preference to your cultivation because I can always upgrade your talents but I can't do the same for your cultivation."

"Another important thing, except for Dominic's squad, I will move the remaining squads to my other worlds where you will be looking after the world and improving your strength while fighting the monsters."

.

.

Compared to the outside, Leo gave out more instructions, reminders, warnings to these squad leaders as they were following him from the beginning of his journey.

Among these squad leaders, there were beasts other than Victor and Vladimir. They were Glacial Imp King, Sun Naga Queen, and Fury Golem Lord who had their own beast subordinates.

As for Leo's other beast followers that he tamed in the [God Ruins] and [Treasure Land], Leo rewarded them separately.

"Now, Vladimir, it's' your turn."

Soon, Leo looked at Vladimir and said with a smile, "I have no suitable talent to give to you, right now."

When Vladimir heard Leo's starting words, he became excited; however, it turned into extreme disappointment when he heard the latter part of Leo's words.

"What? Do you have a suitable talent for me?"

Tears were ready to burst out of Vladimir's eyes anytime now as he said to Leo, "Master, please don't joke with me regarding the rewards. You know that I have a weak heart, right?"

"Haha"

Seeing Vladimir's face, Leo felt funny as he replied, "However, I have decided to give you something else which you would definitely like."

"What is it? What is it?"

The tears on Vladimir's face disappeared as he hurriedly asked Leo with an excited face.

"That was quick."

Leo was surprised by Vladimir's quick reaction; however, he didn't waste any time and replied, "How about you accompany me on my mission to conquer the other worlds?"

"Excellent."

Vladimir jumped in excitement as he hurriedly said, "Master, you said it. You should not go back on your words."

"Sure…sure."

Leo nodded with a slight smile.

'Swoosh'

"Boss Leo, I am back with some cool items for you."

All of a sudden, a cute panda appeared in the room out of nowhere and shouted.
