Talent Swallowing System

Chapter 120 Summoning a Quasi-Supreme Rank Weapon

The weakness of most of the monsters and the mutated beasts that Leo hunted in the past was their necks. Leo was even more confident that the Wyvern King’s weakness was also its neck.

Earlier, when Leo and the city leader attacked the Wyvern King, it avoided its neck area, giving him confidence in his belief.

‘War god’s battle-axe, come out.’

As soon as the city leader left, Leo didn’t waste any more time and summoned the huge battle-axe he got from the [Gold] section of the [Treasure Room].

The long handle of the battle-axe was pitch black, and the size of the blade mounted on that handle was as big as a football.

‘Ding,

The partial soul inside the war god’s battle-axe detected the host’s [Battle-axe’s mastery].

‘Ding,

However, it is still unwilling to acknowledge the host as its master.

Since Leo’s talent, the [Battle-axe’s mastery] was a passive talent, he didn’t need to activate it, and because of that, the partial soul of the battle-axe even detected his talent.

‘Huh? Not willing to accept me as its master?’

According to the information on the war god’s battle-axe, Leo knew he had to get the acknowledgement from the partial soul inside the battle-axe to use it.

However, he was slightly surprised that it was still unwilling to accept him even though he had a level 4 talent [Battle-axe’s mastery].

‘Roar’

The angry roar of the Wyvern King resounded as it flew towards him with its mouth wide open._-.

‘Then I don’t have any choice but to bribe the weapon.’

Leo had a backup in case the weapon didn’t accept him as its master. So, he casually teleported himself a few kilometers away from the Wyvern King and started using his backup plan.

“I am here.”

Nevertheless, he didn’t forget to gain the Wyvern King’s attention before using his backup plan.

“If you accept me as your master, I will fully awaken your soul.”

Since the weapon has awakened its partial soul, Leo tried to bribe it with a promise.

‘Ding,

The battle-axe fell into a dilemma and wondered whether it should accept the offer.

‘Ding,

However, the battle-axe could not trust the host because it remembers the host’s words, ‘I am known for breaking the promises’.

‘Ding,

The battle-axe decided not to accept the host as its master.

Soon, a series of system notifications rang in Leo’s head, informing the thoughts of the partial soul inside the battle-axe.

‘…’

Leo was speechless, looking at those system notifications before asking the system, ‘What the hell? It can hear my words even when it is inside the storage ring?’

‘Ding,

Of course. Even the host’s sword ‘Arcane Silver’, which only awakened consciousness, can hear everything happening around the host, not to mention a partial soul of a powerful weapon.

‘Fine…if the carrot method didn’t work, then I can only use the stick.’

Even though it was not what he had expected, Leo came up with another method to make the battle-axe accept him as its master.

“If you don’t accept me as your master, I will make sure you rot inside my storage ring and you will not get to taste a single drop of blood until I die.”

If he wanted someone to acknowledge him as the master, he knew what he had to do. So, even when the bribing didn’t work, he was sure that threatening would work.

For him, this war god’s battle-axe was very important to kill the Wyvern King because it is a Quasi-supreme rank weapon with multiple weapon skills.

Even though a normal Quasi-supreme rank weapon might not be able to kill a supreme-ranked mutated beast; however, it had a special effect and multiple weapon skills.

‘Moreover, even the effects of my passive talent [Battle-axe’s mastery] will increase the damage output to the next level.’

Because of all these reasons, Leo was adamant about getting the acknowledgement from the war god’s battle-axe.

‘Ding,

The battle-axe gets scared by the host’s words and silently curses him.

‘Huh? Cursing me?’

Leo frowned when he saw the system notification; however, in the next second, another system notification appeared that made him reveal a satisfied smile.

‘Ding,

The battle-axe acknowledges the host as its master and hopes that he will keep his promise of awakening its soul fully.

“Even though I am known for breaking my promises, I will never break the promises given to my friends and family. So, don’t worry about the promise.”

Leo once again promised the battle-axe before looking at the Wyvern King that had almost reached him.

“B*stard, fight me like a man. Don’t hide or escape.”

The Wyvern King was furious as it asked Leo to fight properly.

“Since you want a fair fight, let’s go.”

After tasting the rewards of killing the Ogre King, Leo was eager to kill another supreme-ranked being.

Moreover, there was a minor injury on the Wyvern King’s neck, and he also got the acknowledgement from the battle-axe.

Therefore, Leo was no longer planning to hide or run away from the Wyvern King.

“Let’s fight.”

Leo didn’t go for the kill directly; instead, he was getting used to his new weapon and new talent.

….

“City leader, that man has a quasi-supreme rank weapon.”

“Also, it looks more powerful than the quasi-supreme rank weapon the city leader has.”

“Shall we retrieve it?”

The city leader and his five loyal city guards were shocked when they saw the huge battle-axe in Leo’s hands.

“I already expected him to have a powerful quasi-supreme rank weapon; however, it looks more powerful than I thought.”

The city leader nodded and agreed with the city guards; however, he said, “Let’s not mess with him for now. Someone once told me a few lines about him.

If you can’t kill him in a single attack, then it’s better you commit suicide because once you fall into his hands, even if you want to die, you can’t die.

So, do you think you can kill him in a single attack?”

‘…’

All the city guards remained silent and didn’t say anything.

They felt whoever said those lines about the Talent Swallowing Hero was exaggerating about him; however, they didn’t dare to talk back to their city leader.

“However, if Mr. White and I act together, then we can capture him dead or alive.”

Soon, an evil smile appeared on the city leader’s face as he looked at Leo for a moment before looking at Mr. White.

“Will Mr. White help you, city leader?”

One of the city guards asked Theodore.

“From what I noticed, Mr. White was observing that ‘Talent Swallowing Hero’ every now and then. I am very sure he might be planning to capture him alive to sell him off to those city leaders who placed the bounty on him.”

The city leader stood up and continued, “I think we can come to an understanding in capturing him alive.”

….

‘Clang’

‘Swoosh’

“Human, do you think you can kill me just because you have a Quasi-supreme rank weapon?”

Leo didn’t know that even the city leader was planning to join Mr. White in capturing him alive or dead.

The Wyvern King mocked him when the huge battle-axe was only leaving scratches on its scales.

“Thanks for training with him. I can kill you now.”

[Sapce Manipulation]

In the next second, Leo disappeared from his place before appearing above Wyvern King and using the momentum from the fall; he aimed at the injury on the Wyvern King’s neck left by the city leader.
