I Can Upgrade My Talent In Everything

Chapter 19: Monster World Secret Realm

“Well, you still have the last pick; make the most of it.” “So, what do you want to learn next?”

Sofia gave him a gentle look, knowing that, while Fein liked to crack a joke now and then, he was quite serious in the way he went about his business. And according to the books he requested, she guessed that Fein has a grudge against the Puppeteer. A dangerous and shrewd criminal. Mostly because of his ability to affect the mind and his powerful control of telekinesis, which allows him to be somewhat versatile.

Although she wanted to help him, she’s only an E Rank degu user at the moment, and her abilities are primarily for support rather than combat.

Fein finally looked at her with his usual smile after a moment of thought and says. “I’d like to learn how to use the Advanced Degu Application.”

Well, that was what she expected. She then used her hands to write something in the book. Letters began to appear on the pages after she began typing with her fingers. Someone with Vladimir’s blood could only see this text. When the Vladimir Family was at its peak, their S Class Ancestor invented this function. Unfortunately, despite his strength, he was unable to avoid the inevitable doom of aging.

After five minutes passed, another book drifted in their direction. The cover is white and has some runes designed on it. Sofia moved it closer to her face and handed it to Fein.

“All the currently known Advance Degu Applications are listed there, but be warned that you can only start learning when you step into the B Rank, or else you will lose control of your energy; however, there is still an exception; if you are talented enough, you might be able to do it even in C Rank, but not lower than that,” she reminded.

.....

After all, he may be brave enough to attempt something like this. Despite the fact that she hasn’t known him for a long time, she has some idea of his personality.

Fein smirked and placed his hands on his back like a sage as he looked at Sofia. and says with a complacent smile. “If we’re talking about talent, and if I claim to be the second, no one will claim to be the first!”

Sofia just stood there staring at him speechlessly...

“How come I can’t refute when he’s the one saying it?” A strange expression appeared on her face.

Sofia only realized now that every word he said, even when bragging, had a sense of certainty to it. His words had the power to make those who heard them subconsciously believe.

Just like that, Fein studied the book intently for an hour...

...

They returned to the Guest Room. Sofia’s father apparently wanted to meet him and lavishly reward him for saving his daughter.

‘If it’s from the Marquis himself, what I get should be very valuable.’ ‘After all, a prestigious family like theirs cares more about their image than anyone else.’ Fein reached a conclusion as a grin emerged on his face.

Fein had no idea that his unintended intervention would benefit him like this. Not only did he obtain the information he currently need, but he also gained the favor of the Marquis and he would even receive a reward.

A man with white hair and a beard was standing upright in the stairwell. He was just standing there, but an unconscious pressure was exerting itself on Fein. It was the aura of a man that was sitting from power for a long time.

‘Probe!’

Name: Lucius Vladimir

Degu Amount: A

Str: S 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com

Agi: A

End: S

Fein’s eyes narrowed slightly as he read the ridiculous stats; Lucius had done an excellent job of concealing his strength. However, it remained within Fein’s expectations. Ultimately, as the head of the Vladimir Family, it was unavoidable that they would direct all resources toward him. Lucius’s body is powerful, which could be due to bathing with medicinal herbs, using a rare treasure that increases strength, or even undergoing some extremely expensive enhancements.

‘It’s really convenient to be wealthy,’ Fein thought bitterly.

Without his ability, it would take a long time to even reach D rank...

Lucius simply looked at him and smiled, as if he was aware of his thoughts.

‘He might be hinting at me to keep it to myself; he’s a real old fox.’ It’s best to be cautious around him,’ Fein reasoned inwardly.

“So, you’re the one who saved my daughter, and I’m really grateful for that,” Lucius smiled as he looked at Fein directly in the eye.

Fein stared back at him in the eyes without batting an eyelid and responded cautiously. “I only did what I believe to be right.”

Lucius nodded and walked over to a large box. He took his time opening it... There was an old bracelet in the shape of a shield inside. He motioned for him to approach him and said. “This is the reward I carefully selected for you; it is called ‘Bracelet of Mimir.’ It will make you resistant to mind-related abilities; it was a top-tier work of the best artisan in the entire neighboring countries; its material was from the heart of a mind dragon; its preciousness was very obvious, and it can also make you calm subtlety when you wear it and it can release a purple mist to protect you once in the face of powerful soul attack.”

Fein looked at the bracelet and took it without hesitation. After all, this will improve his chances of defeating Jonathan Jackson, who possesses a sinister mind-control ability. Fein was afraid of confronting him because he was wary of being controlled, and the worst-case scenario was for Jackson to learn his secrets by reading his mind... He knew that this equipment will become extremely valuable to him.

“It was exactly what I needed at the time,” Fein said gratefully.

“Well, that’s not the end of it. If that’s all we can offer, we’ll lose face and be laughed at by other powerful families.” Lucius shook his head with a wary smile.

He fiddled with something in his suit pocket and pulls out an envelope.

Lucius handed it to him and said, “This is an invitation to a Secret Realm, where only the best of the best young geniuses can go to find all kinds of inheritance, treasures, and other types of rare materials. Our family only got three tickets after some intense bargaining, including the one in your hand, and for the last one, you can state any request you have that is within our capabilities, and we will fulfill it to the best of our abilities. So what do you want?”

“Well, I would like to have...”
