I Can Upgrade My Talent In Everything

Lucian saw this and started to remember their faces furiously. 'One, two, three, four... So there are a lot of them."

A victory smile appeared on his face as his plan had worked. He caught them off guard just with his words. He laid a trap and they step on it. Now, he knew who the degu users are, although not all of them.

'This man is vicious and clever.' Joshua wants punched Lucian's smug smile right now. And he also cursed himself for not controlling his facial expressions well.

But who can blame him? Revealing the existence of degu users in a crowd of civilians is a taboo thing to do in San Fernando country. Other countries might be lax in this aspect. But the leaders of their country didn't want the normal people to know the existence of degu society. As this might cause public unrest and disturb their peaceful life.

Of course, different countries have different approaches. Some think that it's okay to reveal, while the majority think that it isn't. Only a few countries revealed the existence of degu users in their people in the end. And even then, the country has to make sure that it won't spread outside.

That's why when Lucias said these words. It's like a bomb in their ears which caught them off-guard.

"degu users? What is that?"

"Isn't it obvious? They are using degu!"

"Then what is degu?"

"Well, that's what I don't know."

"Bastard..."

The people showed a confused look when they heard the term degu users. But some of them heard some rumors.

A black-haired man with a scar on his left cheek had his hands on his back. "It heard some rumors that degu users aren't different from us. They are humans, but they can have strange abilities and perform feats that were impossible for people like us."

"What!? Superpowers really exist!? Darn it. Why do they hide it from us? We have the right to know it!" a bald man with a shining head said indignantly as if he was wronged.

Of course, they won't reveal such a thing, idiot. That's why even if there's an incident. The people in power would just cover it and make it look like a normal incident."

"Yeah, there's really nothing new about it." A woman with tan skin and red eyes spoke.

Joshua and Eugene didn't step out and reveal themselves. Like other degu users, they didn't want to reveal their identities that easily.

Seeing that no one was still coming out, not even one, made Lucian smirk.

"I already know who are you. Don't wait for me to reveal you one by one. Don't be selfish. We are in a life-and-death crisis right now. If you don't cooperate, we will all gonna die! The greater the power, the bigger the responsibility." Lucian took a deep breath and plan to use morality to force the degu users out. "And the lives of us civilians depend on you now. Right, guys?"

Then he turned his head at the crowd, planning to use the opinion of the majority. This is what he calls 'Crowd Manipulation 101' effective for pressuring others.

'This bastard!' Joshua wants to use his power right now and bring Lucian to the other side of the continent. He doesn't want to reveal his identity while his younger was beside him!

Eugene, on the other hand, recovered from the shock. And he has a smile on his face. He didn't really care even if his identity come in open. After all, he doesn't have anything to worry about. 'Well, this is getting pretty interesting.'

So, with that, Eugene was the first one to step forward. The eyes of the people simultaneously darted to Eugene. Their eyes contained mixed feelings. Some looked at him with apprehension, some with fear, some with awe, and some were a pure curiosity.

Then they began to whisper to each other. As this was the first time they saw a degu user.

"So it is true? Do they really exist? But he doesn't look different from us."

"Are you stupid? Of course, they were still humans, except that they have abilities."

"Wow, so cool. I also want to have superpowers." One of the kids in the stadium looked at Eugene, his eyes shining.

Joshua clenched his fist when he saw this, and he has a bad feeling in his heart. Then when he looked at Lucian. He saw that the latter has an imperceptible smile on his face. 'This is a fucking trap.'

Lucian didn't notice Joshua's hostile gaze, as he was already receiving them continuously after he revealed their existence. 'Now, the other won't have the choice but to reveal themselves.'

After all, the degu users belong in a degu society. Most of them knew each other. So if one steps up, those who knew each other won't have the choice to do the same. And he already memorized their faces and position.

Lucian laid out a double net that would get the most fish.

Just like that, like a domino effect. A person stepped out from the crowd of people. He has black skin, short brown hair, and a black cross tattoo on his neck.

After him, a teenager donned in white robes and dark black pants, with a blue thunder tattoo on his shoulders, followed. Sparks of electricity surrounded his entire being and some of the discharge even burnt the ground.

"Wow!!" the people exclaimed in awe at the wonderful display. Almost eighty percent of the crowd had their eyes fixed on bolts of lightning and they had their jaw drops from the supernatural scene in front of them. After all, such things only appeared in tales.

"Is that an ability? So they can also wield natural elements?"

"Is this a person a could do? It's literally on the level of gods!"

"No, that's an exaggeration. I think they have rankings depending on the strength of their abilities." A man with clear glasses said. He has the temperament of a wise scholar that had read a mountain of books.

"With these powerful people alongside us. Are we safe now? Oh god. Thank you! I thought I won't see my girlfriend again."

"Who knows if they can kill the monster? You didn't see what the monster can do?"
