Chapter 803 Ranking Up, Combining Talents!
-----
Once we were back to Monica's castle, I glanced from the windows as my troops of monsters walked into the Dungeon near the city. It was seen as a rather dangerous C Rank Dungeon, but it was not going to be easily cleared once to twice a week by my Familiars.
I heard from Monica that it mostly has Dark-type and Poison-type Monsters, such as Poisonous Bats, Dark Wolves, and even Venom Drakes and Venom Wyverns, in the deepest floor which is Floor 5.
The Dungeon Boss according to her father is the "Venomous Viper Drake King" a mighty C+++ Rank Monster bordering as strong as a B- Rank monster, with potent poison and hard scales… We'll see how mighty it is once my Familiars find him.
The night was already falling, and tomorrow, we were finally moving back to Stronghold Academy for the last three months before the year's end. I assume we'll need to either conquer another dungeon or just do some written test, flavored with some combat here and there.
But for now, as I rested over my bed, I decided to check all my gains, especially something I've been wanting to do for a while, which I already had a conversation with my friends and Monica's family about, while hiding it from the other nobles.
And that was the [Talent Bestowal Divine Monolith] and all it involved. We agreed on letting the knowledge about this precious Monolith a secret for now, as it might stir an uproar amongst many countries desiring the power it can grant to people to combine their Talents and gain even more power.
It wasn't exaggerated to say that neighboring kingdoms might try to capitalize on this or even outright invade Silvertide while it is as its weakest.
The only reason they haven't done anything is because of the demons, and now that news about the demons being defeated spread around, they're still uninterested because everything is just ruined.
But Monica's father was sure that they would immediately try to get this precious Monolith and monopolize it to themselves… even if they had to just destroy an already ruined country.
My friends will go there tomorrow morning to get this power unlocked as well. And well, without further ado, let's see how this works.
"Grimoire, access the Talent Combination Ability."
The Grimoire opened its pages, which quickly started fluttering by the wind, immediately glowing brightly as they showed me what I wanted to see.
Ding!
[Accessing the [Talent Combination] Interface…]
[Accessed.]
The pages suddenly glowed with a blue light, generating several texts across, showcasing the Talents I could had taken instead of my current ones… This seems to only include Class. Subclasses were excluded, perhaps they were not something that existed in the past.
Ding!
[Please select a Talent to combine with your existing [Grandmaster Summoner: ????] Talent!]
[Available Talents]
[Magic Beast Tamer: ????]
[Abyssal Vampiric Spear Demon: ????]
[Elemental Warlock: ????]
[Great Dragon Tamer: ????]
[Blood King: ????]
[Aberrant Chimera: ????]
There were several Talents, all the ones I hadn't taken before, actually… And they were all honestly tempting! I had only been taking the Summoner Talent because of how obvious of a choice it was.
But the other Talents were just as incredible sounding, although I still couldn't see their details, I could "grab" them, and drag them into the empty space next to my Talent, which had a + beforehand, and see the name of the resulting Talent.
And these were the results…
-----
[Grandmaster Summoner: ????] + [Abyssal Vampiric Spear Demon: ????] = [Grandmaster Abyssal Crimson Spear Summoner Demon: ????]
[Grandmaster Summoner: ????] + [Elemental Warlock: ????] = [Elemental Grandmaster Warlock Summoner: ????]
[Grandmaster Summoner: ????] + [Great Dragon Tamer: ????] = [Grandmaster Great Dragon Summoner Tamer: ????]
[Grandmaster Summoner: ????] + [Blood King: ????] = [Blood King Grandmaster Summoner: ????]
[Grandmaster Summoner: ????] + [Aberrant Chimera: ????] = [Aberrant Chimera Grandmaster Summoner: ????]
Interesting, from what I can notice, it seems that it always keeps the Grandmaster Summoner no matter what, and the fusions seem very simple, without creating something that isn't just a mashup of both Talents.
However, I think that's the intended purpose, it is to have two Talents at once before there was even the existence of something like Subclasses at all… So with this, not only will I continue being a Grandmaster Summoner, but I will gain the prowess and Skills of another Talent.
Among all the ones that bring my attention, the Blood King and the Great Dragon Tamer seem like the ones that would fit me well, the Spear Demon one seems too convoluted, and if it specializes only on enhancing my spear-wielding abilities, it won't grow as much as I want it to grow.
Therefore, the dilemma now is either to choose between enhancing my Vampiric Powers to finally make a breakthrough, or further enhance my Dragon Taming Powers, which might also make Ruby stronger and my Dragon Skills evolve further, perhaps.
Both are tempting, but lately, my Vampiric Powers have been rather stale, although more or less I've awakened to a full-fledged vampire through my Physique and without their weaknesses, it still feels like it lacks something.
A powerful Skill aside from just Blood Arts… Cold Blood King give me what I desire?
Well, only one way to find out.
Ding!
[You've chosen the [Blood King: ????] Talent to combine with the [Grandmaster Summoner: ????] Talent!]
[Both Talents have merged together, creating the [Blood King Grandmaster Summoner: ????] Talent!]
[The power of the [Blood King] talent is being ingrained into your very [Origin Core]!]
[Both Talents have fully merged, you now possess two Talents into one!]
[As a result of possessing a Double Talent, you've been granted additional Skill Points and Stat Points.]
[From now on, each Level will supply 40 Stat Points and Skill Points instead.]
[Available Stat Points]: [2.260]
[Available Skill Points]: [2.860]
What?! This is insane! I get double Stat Points and Skill Points?!
I see! So this is why it is so powerful, it's not just Skills… It's just double the normal growth as well!
As I saw my available points, it became incredibly clear what this meant. Combining Talents meant gaining double the points, perhaps not only as a compensation because I'll have to buy more Skills from the Skill Tree… but also because that was most likely the intention.
