Talent Swallowing Hero

"P…please….spare…me….I…will….become…your….slave."

The city leader looked at Leo with a pitiful look and begged for mercy. He was even willing to become Leo's slave.

"Slave? Not interested."

[Mighty Combustion - Fire Ball]

Leo didn't even bother to think about it as he shot a fireball and killed the Level 7 Legend Rank Dragon.

Even though Leo knew that it would be quite useful to take the City Leader as his follower, Leo didn't have any plans to do so.

What's more, unlike the Void Dragon King, the City Leader's entire power came from the Dragon God's blessing and the moment he betrays the Dragon God, his entire strength would disappear.

Leo learned about this thing from the system that was explained after Leo killed the dragon.

'What? There is such a thing?'

Leo frowned when he heard that the strength received from God would disappear.

'Ding,

The Grey Void Dragon King was a loyal believer in the Dragon God and his entire strength came from the faith he had in the Dragon God.

'...'

For some reason, when Leo heard the system's reply, he felt a bad premonition in his heart.

'Ding,

The host doesn't have to worry that his strength would disappear if you doubt the system.

'Ding,

As for betraying the system, I have no expectations or whatsoever from the host. I am just a tool for the host to become stronger.

'Ding,

As for whether the host can become stronger or die in the process of becoming stronger, the system will just find another host.

As though it sensed what Leo was thinking in his head, the system sent a series of system notifications, making Leo shake the thoughts in his head away.

'So, you will find another host if I die.'

Leo learned another thing about the system and asked, 'What if I never die and ascend to Godhood? What happens after that?'

When Leo received the system, the system informed him that the main objective of the system was to make its host a God.

At that time, Leo had some doubts about it; however, he didn't have much choice and used the system to start his journey.

In his journey, Leo learned a lot of things and knew that the system really has the ability to make him God as long as he works hard and with some luck.

However, after learning that the system would find another host upon his death, Leo was curious about what would happen to the system after fulfilling its objective.

'Ding,

The system can't answer that question and it will be answered only when the host ascends to Godhood.

'As I expected, the system will not answer all my questions so easily.'

Leo was already expecting that their conversation would end in such a way. Therefore, he was not disappointed much about it.

'Anyway, let's not worry about those things for now.'

Becoming a God was not an easy thing and if it was really easy, then everyone who was born would ascend to Godhood.

Hence, Leo decided not to think about those things and worry about the things that he really needs to worry about now.

'Ding,

The host killed a level 7 Legend Grade Grey Void Dragon King and received 50 [Legendary Promote Points].

Soon, Leo received the 'Kill' notification of the City Leader from the system and checked the information about the Dragon.

'Even though it has some good talents, they are not worthy to devour the Dragon's body.'

Since Leo has the mission to collect nine more corpses of the City Leaders in the Void Dragon World, Leo was not focused on devouring the corpses of the City Leaders.

Of course, if the City Leaders have some heaven-defying talents or Super Special Talents, they would swallow those talents without any hesitation.

'Anyway, I will swallow them and raise my [Absolute Devour] talent.'

Nevertheless, Leo didn't forget to devour all the dragons that were still intact after receiving his [Radius Blast].

Leo didn't bother to use the [Talent Swallowing Ability] to swallow the special talents or the normal talents; instead, he wanted to increase the potential of the [Absolute Devour].

'Even though I can't see the potential of the [Absolute Devour] or the super special talents, I am sure it will be present and need a really long time to upgrade the super special talents using that method.'

Leo silently muttered to himself and started devouring the corpses of the dragons except for the Grey Void Dragon King.

'Ding,

The host used [Absolute Devour] and swallowed a Level 1 Legend Grade Dragon.

'Ding,

The special effect of the [Absolute Devour] has triggered and the host received three special talent awakening crystals.

'Ding,

The host used [Absolute Devour] and swallowed a Level 3 Legend Grade Dragon.

'Ding,

The special effect of the [Absolute Devour] has triggered and the host received five special talent awakening crystals and 10 normal talent awakening crystals.

.

.

.

Soon, Leo started receiving the system notifications in his head and at the same time, Leo's storage ring was filled with the talent awakening crystals but normal and special.

What's more, starting from the corpses of the high-level supreme-ranked dragons, Leo received more than one talent awakening crystal and as the strength of the corpses increased, the number of the talent awakening crystals also went up.

'Only if my [Undead Summoning] was at Legend Grade, I would raise some high-level undead dragons and even try to bless them with sentience.'

​ Leo thought of raising the undead from the corpses of the dragons around him; however, all of them were high-level and as the strength of the corpses goes up, the chances of successfully raising the undead will go down.

Also, the successful blessing of the sentience of the corpses would be even more difficult.

'Nevermind, I will just focus on completing the mission.'

Of course, Leo was not worried too much about it as he was still benefitted from devouring the corpses in other ways.

With that in mind, Leo made his way to another city while keeping an eye on the arrival of the Dragon God.
