Talent Swallowing System

Chapter 106 Liam's Shock

‘Swoosh’

With a calm look, Leo disappeared from his place to dodge the incoming attack from Liam, who was transformed into a Heavenly flaming lion.

[Absoulte Devour]

Leo didn’t fight Liam; instead, he devoured Mad’s corpse.

‘Ding,

No new talent awakened. The potential for the skill [Spectre] increased by a little.

Since Leo had set [Spectre] as the default skill to receive the experience points, naturally, its potential increased by a little.

‘Should I choose the newly awakened talents?’

Leo thought about changing it to one of the newly awakened talents.

‘Nevermind, I will wait for some time before upgrading my talents. After [Talent Promoter] upgraded to level 4 in the future, I might need elite talents to fulfil its upgrade requirements.’

However, when he thought about [Talent Promoter], he felt it was better to focus on the skills; instead of the newly awakened talents.

“Brat, stay in one place….roar.”

Generally, Liam gets angry easily, and when he was in the mutated beast form, he was seething with fury and roared at Leo.

“Okay.”

If someone saw Leo now, they would never think he had come to erase the Ambermane family because he agreed with a slight smile whenever Liam was asking something.

“Before that, let me devour your sons.”_-.

In the next second, he disappeared and re-appeared in front of Zac and Zen before devouring them.

‘Ding,

No new talent awakened. The potential for the skill [Spectre] increased by a little.

Of course, he was no longer lucky as he didn’t awaken talent.

“You”

Seeing Leo devour his sons’ corpses, flames rose in the Heavenly flaming lion’s eyes and roared, “I am going to tear you into pieces.”

In the next second, the heavenly flaming lion split into five lions, and all of them jumped at Leo.

“Since I devoured them, I can use [Mighty Combustion] without any fear.”

Leo didn’t use his most destructive talent because he feared the corpses of Mad and the other two would be turned into ashes.

He didn’t want such a thing to happen. Therefore, he finished devouring them before using [Mighty Combustion].

‘Boom’

Soon, a huge explosion occurred as the five Heavenly flaming lions jumping at Leo blasted away.

‘Swoosh’

Even though his [Mighty Combustion] was still at level 8, it was a mutated talent. Hence, it could seriously injure even rank 9 heroes.

Moreover, the five lions were very close to them. So, the impact they received was much stronger than usual, making the four flaming lion clones disappear, leaving the main lion on the ground.

“Roar”

Nevertheless, the original lion stood up and roared at Leo.

‘Swoosh’

In the next second, the injuries on its body slowly started healing, surprising Leo.

“Looks like when you transform into a Heavenly flaming lion, you will even get all its skills. No wonder, you are able to make the Ambermane family into one of the three powerful families.”

Leo praised Liam and slowly walked closer to him.

“However, do you think I will give you time to recover from your injuries?”

‘Fireball’

While saying those words, Leo condensed a small fireball and released it at the lion, interrupting its healing.

‘Growl’

Liam growled at Leo and realized that Leo’s information fooled everyone.

‘He is definitely a rank 9 hero.’

Liam silently thought and continued to attack Leo without healing his injuries.

[Mighty Combustion]

However, before his claws could touch Leo, he was blasted away by Leo’s talent.

It repeated a few more times, and the heavenly flaming lion had finally transformed back into Liam.

Currently, Liam was completely covered in injuries and looked at Leo with a face full of fear.

“Today is your Ambermane family’s last night in this world.”

Leo pulled a chair and sat on it.

“Why are you attacking my Ambermane family? What did my Ambermane family do to you?”

Even though there was bad blood between Leo and the Ambermane family because of Julia and the incident from the [Treasure Land], it was not to the point where his entire family needed to be erased.

Moreover, when he heard Leo’s words, Liam didn’t doubt Leo and asked the reason behind the massacre.

“Do you remember Spencer and Mariam?”

Leo asked Liam with a cold face.

“The researchers?”

Liam frowned when he heard those two names.

How could he forget those two names? Only after that event was the Ambermane family able to become the trusted aide of the city leader Theodore. From then, the Ambermane family started growing at an incredible speed before joining the ranks of the powerful families.

“What? How are you related to them? And why are you asking about them out of nowhere?”

Nevertheless, he controlled his emotions and asked Leo.

“As long as you give me the exact reason why you killed them, I will let your family live.”

Leo didn’t bother to answer his question; instead, he offered a deal to Liam.

‘I need to escape from here and inform the city leader about this b*stard. He is somehow related to those researchers.’

This was the first thought in Liam’s head; however, looking at Leo’s cold face, he felt it was impossible to escape from here.

“What? Why would I kill those researchers? It was their adopted son who killed them.”

It was a secret that the city leader didn’t want to come out. So, Liam explained to Leo the same story they made up in the past.

“Haha…you people are really fun. Do you expect me to believe that?”

Leo chuckled coldly and mocked Liam.

“It’s real. Their adopted son was unlucky and didn’t awaken a talent from the ‘Hall of Gods’. So, when he learned that his adoptive parents invented an artificial awakening serum….”

“They didn’t agree to give him. So, he killed them and took the serum before escaping to who knows where, right?”

Liam started the story; however, Leo continued from the middle and ended it with a scoff.

“That’s right! You can ask anyone in this city and they will say the same thing.”

Liam didn’t mind Leo scoffing at him because he only cared about surviving his current situation.

‘As long as I am alive, I can take revenge on him for killing my family.’

Even though Liam thought like that, he valued his life more than his family.

Liam will pick the first option without hesitation if someone asks him whether he wants his life or his entire family.

As for revenge, he wanted to take on Leo for reducing him to such a pitiful state.

“Then, why don’t I remember doing such a thing to my adoptive parents?”

A fireball condensed in Leo’s hand as he asked Liam.

“What?”

Liam didn’t understand what Leo’s words meant for a few moments; however, when he thought about it, he understood what Leo’s words meant.

“You are…their adoptive son?”

With a shocked look on his face, Liam asked Leo.

“N-no. It can’t be. Their son has already become the food to the monsters and the mutated beasts.”

However, before Leo could answer, Liam shook his head and denied the possibility of a 10-year-old kid surviving in the wilderness alone.
