Starting With 3 S-Class Talents

Vincent and the soldier had a long conversation throughout the night. They chatted about various topics under the moonlight.

The soldier did not expect Vincent to be so approachable. He was willing to share with him a lot of insights and experiences from his training. This made the soldier who wanted to believe in Vincent as a god even more firm in his beliefs.

After Vincent ended a topic, he suddenly asked the soldier curiously, “Actually, after understanding the true face of Gajero, you don’t need to persist in believing in me. The Elf Race has its own gods. You can change your belief to other Elf Kings. You can also remove the traces of the demonic aura on your body!”

The soldier was no longer as reserved in front of Vincent. He shook his head and said, “Sir Vincent! To tell you the truth, many elves, including me, actually worship power. We are currently fighting against the demons led by Gajero, so how could we believe in the Elf Kings who were once defeated by Gajero? Moreover, there was a very common consensus among the elves that the elves who believe in different gods were like two races that had nothing to do with each other. It was the same for both the Elf Kings and Gajero. Therefore, the majority of the Dark Elves did not identify the other elves who believe in the Elf Kings as part of the Elf Race. What the elves valued in their faith was power and the ability of a god to protect their world. Ever since Gajero ruled the Elf World, there was no record of any Elf King leading the elves to resist again. This means that the Elf Kings no longer have the ability to resist Gajero, so they are no longer worthy of being worshipped!”

Vincent listened to the soldier’s explanation and nodded lightly.

He could understand the opinions of the elves. However, he felt helpless at the same time.

After being ruled by the demons for a long period of time, the majority of the Dark Elves had completely lost trust in the original Elf Kings. Even if the Dark Elves wanted to rebel against Gajero, they would not change their faith and believe in the Elf Kings.

This was going to be very disadvantageous to the elves because Vincent knew that as a high-level race, the demons had an absolutely overwhelming advantage over the subordinate Dark Elves. As long as the Dark Elves were still using the spells of the Demon Race, then any demon could easily strip them of their abilities.

Just like how the demonized Andre killed Myron in Hell’s Rose!

After thinking about it, Vincent once again realized how important it was for him to delay the demons in Imperial City. At the same time, in order to prevent the Dark Elves from being massacred on a large scale, he had to think of ways to obtain the Elf’s divine spark. This would allow more elves to break away from the power of the Demon World!

“Sir Vincent, if we really overthrow the rule of Gajero and drive all the demons out of this world, what would you do next?” asked the soldier curiously.

Vincent thought for a moment and said with a smile, “At that time, I should continue to go to the Black Hole world to help more worlds that have been invaded by the demons!”

The soldier looked at Vincent with respect and said sincerely, “Sir Vincent, your greatness moves me greatly! Whether or not I can inherit power from you, you will be my lifelong belief!”

Vincent felt a sense of glory and pride after hearing that. He raised his hand and patted the soldier’s shoulder, saying, “Please rest assured, I also promise that I will not betray everyone’s trust and work hard to find a way to obtain the divine spark!”

After hearing Vincent’s promise, the soldier became very excited and sighed in surprise, “Sir Vincent, are you making a promise to become our God? That’s great! If everyone knew this piece of news, they would definitely be excited! After all, you are the only one who had directly defeated Gajero. As long as we can obtain power from you, we will definitely be able to defeat the demons!”

Vincent could not help but laugh. He did not think that he would be so important in the hearts of the elves. After defeating the Seven Great Elf Kings, Gajero became the strongest creature recognized by the elves. And after he defeated Gajero’s projection, he became the strongest person in everyone’s eyes!

Vincent sighed in his heart silently, “So, everyone in the city has placed their hopes of fighting against the demons on me. As long as I do not fall, as long as I am still fighting against the demons, the elves in Devil Flame City will have the same beliefs as me! It seems that whether it is for the humans or the elves, I must not lose!”

The soldier was naturally unable to hear Vincent’s thoughts. He said excitedly, “Sir Vincent, thank you for talking with me today. I want to pass this news to my comrades now. I believe that when everyone knows that you are preparing to become a god, their morale will definitely be high!”

Vincent sighed lightly and nodded, “Go!”

The soldier turned around and walked down the city tower excitedly.

However, Vincent was not alone. This was because the door that was especially used for the city guards to rest suddenly creaked open. Monica, who had returned to her original appearance, walked out from within. She walked behind Vincent silently.

Monica stood behind Vincent and asked boldly, “Vincent, can I still call you that in the future?”

Vincent said with a smile, “Of course, you can. Isn’t that my name for others to call me?”

Monica smiled a little smugly when she heard that. She then strode in front of Vincent and looked up at the moon in the sky. She opened her arms and made a hugging gesture. She said softly with her back facing Vincent, “I’ve decided. I’m going to apply to His Highness Dave to build a temple for you. I’ll be the High Priest to preach for you! After all, compared to those careless soldiers, I am your first believer!”

Vincent smiled awkwardly. He had never thought of being carved into a statue and placed on the altar.

Monica did not hear Vincent’s response. She could not help but turn her head and ask, “Why? Do you think that I’m not worthy of becoming your high priest?”

Vincent quickly shook his head and said, “No, no, I’m just flattered!”

Monica revealed a very happy smile. She walked forward and patted Vincent’s shoulder gently. She said to him, “Stand up!”

“What are you doing?” asked Vincent with a surprised look on his face.

At the same time, he also stood up.

Monica suddenly took a step forward and hugged Vincent tightly. She pressed her face in his chest, closed her eyes, and whispered softly, “When I left Hell’s Rose, you were the one who brought me to adapt to the outside world. But I know that you will leave Elf World one day in the future. I think that at that time, I will definitely not be able to adapt to living alone. So, I want to be your High Priest and look at your statue every day. This way, I will still feel like you are by my side!”

Vincent fell into complete silence. He could only raise his hand and pat Monica’s back gently to comfort her.

Monica quickly broke away from her sad mood and let go of Vincent. She smiled and said, “Don’t try to persuade me to leave with you. After all, our races are different, and I won’t leave my own world because I love my home just as much as you do!”

Vincent spread his hands and said helplessly, “Hey, I have never thought about such things!”

Monica waved her hands and pretended not to hear what Vincent had said. She replied in a strange manner, “Don’t worry, I will not write these things into the books. It is embarrassing to think that a mighty god was directly rejected by an elf girl and did not even have the chance to speak!”

Without waiting for Vincent to say anything, Monica walked back to her room and closed the door behind her.

Vincent was a little speechless. He knew what Monica was thinking, and he knew that if he wanted to take her away, she would definitely go with him.

However, Vincent did not have that kind of thought, and he did not have any feelings for her. Moreover, if he let Monica leave with him, he might not be able to take better care of her, and she might even be in danger with him.

Therefore, instead of letting her down, Vincent hoped that everyone would forget about each other so that she could at least live her life in peace!

That night, Monica hid in her room, but she did not sleep. She was waiting for Vincent to knock on her door and take the initiative to bring her out of Elf World. However, he never came.

Vincent sat on the city tower until dawn.

After making arrangements in the city, Dave once again handed over the authority of the City Lord to Catherine. He then rushed to the city tower to meet with Vincent.

Dave asked Vincent excitedly, “How is it? Can we go now?”

“Let’s go!”

Vincent stood up without hesitation and left Devil Flame City with Dave.

When Monica pushed open the door and looked outside quietly, she found that Vincent was no longer on the city wall. She could not help but stomp her feet in disappointment and anger. She pouted her lips and cried out in grievance, “Vincent, you’re a big bad guy!”

On the way to Serene Spring City, Vincent sneezed a few times and rubbed his nose in great discomfort.

After seeing this, Dave could not help but ask, “What? You’ve only sat on the city tower for one night, and you’re sick already?”

Vincent shook his head and said, “Are you kidding me? How could I be sick with my current strength? Someone must be cursing me behind my back!”

Dave curled his lips disapprovingly and then said, “Since we have to hurry, why don’t we use the authority to modify and directly jump to Serene Spring City?”

Vincent said in a deep voice, “Although we have to hurry to Serene Spring City, we also need to make sure that no demons will pass through on the way. Only then can we guarantee the safety of Devil Flame City!”

Dave could not help but nod and said with great admiration, “No matter what you do, you will always think more thoroughly than me. I really want to be like you!”

Vincent smiled and said, “Don’t worry. As long as you have time and energy, you will be able to do as well as me, or even better than me!”

After hearing that, Dave took out his long knife from his storage ring and hung it on his waist as Vincent did. He then said, “There are no major cities in between Devil Flame City and Serene Spring City. However, Serene Spring City is far away. Moreover, there is only a desolate path connecting them. Unless the Demon Race sends a large army to suppress the border, it is impossible for us to see any traces of them along the way. Since we cannot use modification authority to shorten the journey, why don’t we find some other way to have fun?”

Vincent listened to Dave’s suggestion and asked with a smile, “Why, do you want to compete with me?”

Dave nodded and said, “Let’s compete to see who can reach Serene Spring City first, but you are not allowed to use the power of flames! Moreover, on the way, the two of us can create obstacles for each other. Let’s compete in terms of adaptability and speed!”

Vincent smiled slightly and said, “Alright, I won’t let you lose too badly!”

“The outcome is not certain yet!” said Dave with confidence.

At the same time, he took a step forward to increase the distance between him and Vincent. He then pulled out the Inquisitive God of the World from his waist and drew a line under Vincent’s feet.

Pitch-black demonic aura wrapped around the blade, forming a humongous black blade. He pierced it directly into the ground, creating a deep ravine in front of Vincent.

Due to the explosive energy on the blade, the ground split apart, separating Vincent and Dave on both sides of a ten-meter-long chasm.

Vincent did not care about Dave’s shameless actions. Instead, he asked in surprise, “Your strength has increased again?”

Dave replied loudly from the other side, “Before we set off, I had already absorbed all the energy in the Elf King’s remains. Although I have not completely digested it, it has allowed me to advance to a level 30 creature!”

Vincent nodded and said with satisfaction, “Not bad, you’re more talented than I thought. Then I don’t have to give in to you!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Vincent shot out like an arrow and directly leaped into the air.

However, as he did not have any help, Vincent simply could not cross the entire chasm. His body began to descend slowly halfway through his leap.

Vincent suddenly pointed at the space below him. He used the Art of Heaven’s Will to communicate with heaven and earth, causing the space beneath him to distort.

On the other side, Dave saw that the air beneath Vincent’s feet had started to crease out of thin air. The creases in the space were like invisible stairs. Vincent lifted his foot and stepped on it as if he was stepping on solid ground. He was leaping on it easily. He soon jumped to the other side of the ravine.

Dave saw that Vincent was about to catch up to him. He quickly turned around and ran along the main road. His speed was so fast that it made others click their tongues in excitement.

After Vincent landed on the ground, he glanced at Dave’s back indifferently. He saw that Dave was hurrying on his way. He was using the same invisible flame method to push himself forward. He was controlling the aura of the Demon Race to slowly release from behind him, pushing him to speed up!

When he thought of how Dave restricted him from using his flame power, Vincent instantly realized that this was a trap that Dave had set up long ago!

“Good kid, you actually schemed against me. When I catch you, I will definitely kick your ass!”

Vincent smiled and sighed. He then flashed and quickly disappeared from where he was.

Dave, who was running on the path, had a smug look on his face because he had just successfully set up a trap for Vincent. Without the power of flames, he believed that Vincent would be left behind.

No matter what method Dave used, as long as he could beat Vincent once, it was enough for him to be proud for the rest of his life!

At that moment, Dave suddenly heard a voice beside his ear.

“What are you thinking about? You have to concentrate when moving at high speed. Otherwise, you will bump into a tree, and you might even be kicked in the butt from behind!”

Dave broke out in cold sweat when he heard that because he knew that it was Vincent’s voice, and it was coming from behind him!

When Dave turned his head to look behind him, his face was full of surprise. Not only did he see Vincent maintaining the same speed as him, but he was also looking at him with a relaxed and calm expression.

“We agreed that you’re not allowed to use your fire ability, you’re cheating!”

Dave increased his speed as he protested to Vincent.

Vincent said in a relaxed tone, “Hey! Take a good look, I’m not using fire!”

Dave turned his head to look behind Vincent in a daze. He did not find any traces of fire. Instead, he felt a large amount of psionic power leaking out!

Dave shouted in shock, “You, you, you actually used psionic power to run on a road. That’s too extravagant!”

Psionic power was the foundation of every cultivator’s ability, and the essence of all abilities was to conserve psionic power as much as possible.

For example, Vincent was currently using psionic power to produce the same effect as his flame ability, but the consumption of psionic power was ten times greater than when using the flame ability. Such a crazy consumption method was something that no cultivator could withstand.

However, Vincent was an exception!

Vincent’s face was still calm because the psionic power reserve in his body was ten times that of a cultivator of the same level. Therefore, he did not care about such consumption at all!

After seeing Vincent’s unrestrained methods, Dave could only run forward with all his strength. Soon, his face was covered in sweat, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered.

Just as the two of them turned into two streaks of black light and passed through a small path, they suddenly saw a valley in front of them. There were Dark Elves corpses all over the place. At the same time, there were more than ten Dark Elves wearing armor. They were surrounding and attacking a female Dark Elf!

The Dark Elf female had a bow and arrow on her back, and she was holding a spear made from the Origin Divine Tree. Although she tried her best to fight back, there were many wounds on her body, and she was gradually losing her stamina.

After seeing the scene, Dave quickly stopped and rested his hands on his knees. He was panting heavily.

Vincent stopped beside Dave and said with a calm expression, “What, you admit defeat?”

Dave shook his head with a red face and pointed at the Dark Elves not far away.

“We still have some serious matters to deal with. Let’s put the competition on hold for now. We’ll have a showdown another day!”

Vincent smiled slightly and asked in return, “Oh, what serious matters?”

Dave panted heavily as he said, “Do you see the armor that those Dark Elves are wearing? The pattern on it is the symbol of Serene Spring City!”

After hearing that, Vincent could not help but lose his interest in teasing Dave. He turned to look at the Dark Elf girl who was struggling under the siege of everyone. At the same time, he heard the girl’s unwilling voice.

“You bunch of Jessica’s lackeys! Serene Spring City will be destroyed by you sooner or later!”

“B*tch, how dare you slander the City Lord when death is at hand? Serves you right for having your entire Carter family wiped out!”

The Dark Elves who were surrounding the girl cursed loudly at her. At the same time, they also increased the strength of their attacks.

The girl’s physical strength was exhausted. After dodging twice, her shoulder was cut by a sword from the front, and she fell heavily to the ground. She looked at the Dark Elves around her with unwillingness and despair. She slowly took out an arrow from the quiver on her back. She would rather kill herself than be humiliated!

After seeing the scene, Vincent patted Dave beside him gently and said in a deep voice, “Save her!”
