Before Leo entered the meeting hall, Dominic had already sealed the entire meeting hall using a talisman.
Because of that, even though there was a huge explosion, the family head could not hear it.
‘Gulp’
‘Kacha’
While Dominic and others were taking care of the remaining members of the Ambermane family, Leo started devouring the corpses lying on the ground one after another.
‘Ding,
The host used [Absolute Devour] and devoured ten rank 7 humans; however, it triggered no effect, and no skill has awakened.
‘As I expected, the lower the strength of the being I devoured, the lower the chance of awakening the talent or skill that being has.’
Whenever he used [Absolute Devour] to devour a monster or a mutated beast or a human, Leo observed with focus to learn more about the talent.
From his observation, Leo understood an important thing, i.e., the percentage shown on the talent’s information was applicable only when he devoured rank 9 beings.
If he devourer the rank 7 or 8, that percentage would decrease even more.
‘So, there is no need for me to kill the rank 6 and below ranked heroes in the Ambermane family.’
Leo silently thought in his head and focused on devouring the corpses.
The system notifications continued to ring in his head, and all of them said only one thing: he didn’t awaken any talent.
‘I hope I can awaken at least one talent.’
As long as he awakens at least one talent from devouring everyone, Leo would be satisfied.
As Leo focused on devouring the corpses on the ground, Dominic and others were silently assassinating the Ambermane family members below rank 7.
Everyone had a cold look on their faces as they killed everyone that saw.
Be it a child or a woman; no one was spared.
‘When you eliminate an enemy, put aside your emotions and kill everyone, unless you want to be hunted down by the single child you spared because of pity.’
It was what Leo believed because he was also a loose end left by the Ambermane family in the past.
‘Nevertheless, no one showed me any pity; instead, I was sold to some merchant group and became a slave.’
Leo was completely calm as he didn’t show any empathy for the Ambermane family members and continued, ‘If not for my endurance, I would have long died.’
‘Ding,
The host used [Absolute Devour] and devoured a rank 8 hero; however, it triggered no effect, and no talent has awakened.

‘Ding,
The host used the [Absolute Devour] to consume a peak rank 8 hero and awakened a new talent [Sunfire Bolt].
‘Ding,
The host used the [Absolute Devour] to consume a peak rank 8 hero and awakened a new talent [Fire Healing].
With each system notification, Leo was getting a little bit disappointed; however, when he saw the last two system notifications, Leo froze in his steps.
‘I got two new talents just like that?’
Nevertheless, he became excited to devour the remaining corpses in the next second, hoping to awaken another talent.
It was not Leo’s fault, and it was human nature to hope for more.
However, his luck was used up when he awakened two talents back to back. Hence, he didn’t awaken any new talents.
‘I was hoping for a single talent and I awakened two talents. I should be content with it.’
Once he devoured all the corpses on the ground without leaving anything behind, Leo convinced himself.
‘Until Dominic and others finish off their mission, I will check my new talents and upgrade them.’
Since he had many [Promote points] and his undead summons were still farming for more [Promote points] in the wilderness, Leo decided to use them to upgrade his new basic talents.
‘Ding,
Talent name: Sunfire Bolt (level 1).
Effect: The user can summon a single fiery bolt that will never miss the target within a 10-meter radius.
Potential: 0 / 100.
‘Ding,
Talent name: Fire Healing (Level 1).
Effect: The user can summon a fireball that doesn’t cause any damage; instead, it heals the small wounds.
Potential: 0 / 100.
‘First talent is not bad whereas the second talent….it’s a freaking healing talent.’
Leo was excited about the second talent since healers were very valuable in this world.
‘Even though I knew I would get a healing-type talent sooner or later, I didn’t expect to awaken this soon.’
According to Leo, all the talents in this world could be used for something. So, he didn’t mind even if some talents didn’t have huge destructive power.
For him, having a wide range of talents would be much better than having a few talents with a lot of destructive power.
Because no matter how much destructive power he had, it would be useless in front of those otherworldly beings.
‘If the youngsters from the other worlds were already that strong, then what about their parents? What about the strongest beings in their worlds?’
‘Also, the otherworldly beings that came to help them, in front of them, were just an ant with a little bit of strength. So, it is better to have a wide range of skills which helps my survival rate against them.’
Leo didn’t waste his time with those thoughts and left them for the future.
As for now, he decided to focus on upgrading his two new talents.
‘Upgrade.’
‘Ding,
The host spent 13000 [Promote points] to upgrade [Sunfire Bolt] to level 4.
‘Ding,
The host spent 13000 [Promote points] to upgrade [Fire Healing] to level 4.
With a thought, Leo spent 13000 [Promote points] on each talent and upgraded them to level 4.
‘With level 4 [Sunfire Bolt], I can now summon 10 fiery bolts whereas, with level 4 [Fire Healing], I can heal medium and minor injuries.’
‘As long as I upgrade the [Fire Healing] to level 7, I think I can heal serious injuries.’
Leo was looking forward to upgrading that talent.
‘Only if this [Talent Promter] is upgraded to level 4, I can upgrade the elite talents into advanced talents with it.’
Leo wanted to see how much potential the [Talent Promoter] had left to become a level 3 talent.
‘Ding,
The host has upgraded three basic talents, namely [Hanting of Esctasy], [Sunfire Bolt], and [Fire Healing], into elite talents.
‘Ding,
The talent [Talent Promoter] has upgraded to level 3. Check the full information in the user interface.
However, before he could check the potential, he received two system notifications, which surprised him.
‘Wait a second. Since [Talent Promoter] is a special talent, it will not have the potential to check, right?’
Suddenly, Leo realized something and saw that the system didn’t show the potential for the [Talent Promoter].
‘It upgraded whenever I used this talent to upgrade the basic talents into elite talents. Does that mean I have to upgrade a few more basic talents into elite ones?
When he thought like that, Leo didn’t know whether he should be happy or sad about such upgrade requirements.
If there was such a requirement, he needed to have at least three or more basic talents, and to awaken them; he had to kill many rank 8 or 9 human heroes?
‘Am I thinking too much about it?’
Shaking those thoughts aside, Leo checked the information on level 3 [Talent Promoter].
‘What the…’
In the next second, Leo was shocked after seeing the information on that talent.
