I Can Upgrade My Talent In Everything

459 Fein, The Lord of Talent

“Of course, few S ranks know of this information, and all of them dreamed of comprehending the laws and tried their best. But only a few succeeded and their level of understanding wasn’t enough to make them a god. Though, it’s already enough since they already took the first step into the path of godhood.” 𝘧r𝑒𝘦𝒘𝘦𝙗ｎovel.𝐜o𝒎

Fein, who was listening intently, was thoroughly shocked. Who would have known that he was already walking the path to godhood all this time without knowing it!?

‘Damn it! Understand the law is actually a path to godhood!’ Fein wasn’t exactly calm at this moment.

“But father, how can you sense the laws or even understand them?” Sofia scratched her head.

“Good question! So how one can sense the laws and understand them? After all, no any can sense them. If just anyone one can do that, then won’t all creatures have the opportunity to obtain godhood and become a god? That’s not how the world works.

Well, everything I say isn’t the truth. Take my words with a grain of salt. But I speak from experience. I had lived for a thousand years, yet I didn’t succeed in sensing the laws with the countless attempts I made. I had to search for artifacts that might help me, but there were none. So, from the hundred years of experience, I came up with a conclusion. There are different talents out there that exist, and of variety. It can be said that I’m talented, which is why I successfully ascended to S rank.

Yet, that doesn’t mean that I’m talented in other things. I’m talented in the aspect of sensing degu energy, but I’m just above average in learning martial techniques. I can be talented at cooking, but I can be mediocre at dancing. Similarly, I’m talented with the use of degu energy and had the constitution to reach the S rank. But I don’t have the required talent to sense the laws. Do you understand what I mean???”

“That there is talent needed specifically to sense the laws?” Sofia muttered.

“That’s right!” Lucius nodded with a smile. “Every person had their own talent and intelligence. They are aspects where they are strong. And this is why society can function just fine, because of the diversity of skills. Just imagine if all people can become strong, intelligent, or talented in all things. How would society function?? It would be chaos... That’s why whoever created us just gave us a few specific talents from the billions of talents that exist. It is probably to create a balance. Of course, some people had ten or so talent, and they are what we call geniuses or multi-talented people. Imagine if a creature that had the talent for everything exists, then that’s not a creature anymore, because that’s just impossible. That creature would literally have billions of talents!

.....

Though one needs to become an S rank before he could sense the laws, even if he had the talent to sense the laws. I don’t quite understand how this works... Even if a person had the talent to sense his laws, he had to become an S rank degu user first.'”

Hearing this, Fein’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch. Then he thought secretly, ‘But I am exactly that, right? I wonder what would be his reaction if he knew that I have a talent for everything...’

He was already comparable to the doctor’s degree when it comes to the knowledge of talents. He knew more than everyone about this aspect. After all, isn’t his power exactly like that? Millions or maybe even billions of talents exist in the World, and he was aware of that fact. For example, talent for swimming, games, reasoning, peeping, torturing, fighting, flirting... Different sorts of talents exist. Some are worthless while some were heaven-defying. But no matter if it’s useless or amazing, Fein had them all! And all of them were S rank! One day, Fein might even become qualified to call himself the ‘God of Talent!’

Just like what Lucius said, Fein could sense the laws because of his talent. If not for his talent in everything, he might not have sensed the laws.

‘System, is it true that understanding the laws of the universe is the path to god?’ Fein murmured inwardly. 𝐟𝗿𝚎𝐞𝓌e𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵ𝒆𝑙.c𝚘𝓶

DING!

System: Yes! As long as the host’s understanding of any laws reached level 100, it would reach a qualitative change. For example, if the host’s understanding of the law of fire reaches level 100, it would be converted to fire godhood. The host can be said to have become a god of fire. Because godhood is what makes gods.

‘Then why didn’t you tell me earlier?’ Fein complained silently. ‘So a level 100 understanding of the law would convert into a godhood? Such a simple way to become?? If my comprehension of space laws reached level 100, Then I will obtain space godhood and become the god of space?’

Fein felt skeptical. After all, his space understanding is currently level 10. Only short of 90 levels before he can turn into a god?

System: Stupid host! Don’t make it sound simple... Increasing the level of any element becomes harder and harder as it goes up. For example, upgrading a level 9 understanding of wind laws would normally take a talented person 10 years. But upgrading it to level 50 might take him hundreds of years without opportunity! And one needs a specific environment to level up the understanding of laws to higher levels, which are difficult to find.

‘Okay, okay... I understand,’ Fein responded awkwardly. He didn’t expect that the system would scold him. He knew that it only feels easy for him because of his talent for everything. But for others, it might be a nightmare or hell-level difficulty if put in game terms. ‘System, can you remind me of important information just like this one without asking??’

System: That’s not possible for the host. I don’t know what information you want without you asking.

‘How would I know what I want to ask without knowing it beforehand!?’ Fein sighed.

System: It’s the host’s problem...

‘Damn it!’ Fein clenched his fist.

“Is there any problem?” Lucius asked as he saw Fein’s unnatural behavior.

“Cough!” Fein returned to his calm and says. “No, let’s proceed to the Second Great War.”
