Talent Swallowing System

Even though Leo was not sure, he guessed that reward would be similar but with more increment in the potential.

So, he decided to kill more water spiders to check whether his guess was right or wrong?

'Before that, let's merge the claws.'

Leo casually thought of merging [Fire Claw] and [Wyvern Claw], and soon, a system notification rang in his head, asking for his confirmation.

'Ding,

Do you want to merge [Fire Claw] and [Wyvern Claw]?

'Huh?'

Before he could reply to the system notification, Leo sensed some movements from the spider den opposite the den he was standing.

"Human, while everyone is searching for you, you are hiding close to my Den."

Suddenly, Leo had a bad premonition in his heart when he heard the eerie voice of the purple-striped water spider.

'Sleep-inducing poison darts.'

The purple-striped water spider had seen Leo was good at escaping. Hence, he didn't waste time as he released a dozen poison darts at Leo.

'So, this is its home?'

Leo had been watching the purple-striped water spider's sneak attacks. Hence, Leo teleported from his place and dodged the incoming poison darts without a problem.

"Huh? You have a [Teleportation] talent. No wonder, you can escape the eyes of my minions."

The purple-striped water spider was surprised for a moment and hurriedly transmitted his voice to his minions.

'The human has a [Teleportation] ability. The moment you saw him, shoot him with your special silk and capture him before sending a signal to me.'

As a supreme-ranked water spider, the purple-striped water spider could communicate with the other water spiders.

Even though a rank 9 water spider can't reply to him through the voice transmission, they have their ways of sending a signal to the purple-striped water spider.

'Where did he teleport himself to now?'

The purple-striped water spider checked into the distance in the places where Leo might appear.

At the same time, it was waiting for one of its minions to report him regarding Leo.

'Swoosh'

'What?'

While it was checking his spider dens in the distance, the purple-striped water spider sensed the killing intent.

In the next second, it saw the human appear in mid-air and aim to strike at the weakest part, which was the center of its body, which was very thin and seemed easy to cut.

[Arcane Silver's weapon skill - Silver Slash]

"Die now."

However, it was too late for the purple-stripe water spider to dodge the attack; as Leo shouted out loud, a silver light released from the sword.

'Swoosh'

However, the silver light released from the sword didn't even leave a scratch on the purple-striped water spider.

'As I expected, even with my level 9 arcane sliver sword, I can't break its defence with the [Silver Slash]. What about the [Absolute Penetratation]?'

Nevertheless, it was within Leo's expectations, and he decided to use another weapon skill.

Previously, Leo killed the supreme-ranked beings with the help of the shadow vampire and the city leader Theodore.

Even though he knew he couldn't kill a supreme-ranked beast on his own, Leo wanted to see how powerful the arcane silver had become after the upgrade in its level.

'He didn't escape from me?'

It was surprised that Leo didn't escape; instead, he attacked it, which was entirely out of its expectations.

The purple-striped water spider thought that Leo was escaping from it because it was a general fact that a rank 9 hero could not kill a Supreme beast hero.

However, it guessed wrong because Leo was not a regular rank 9.

Moreover, he wanted to strike first to see whether he could kill the Purple-striped water spider or not.

[Arcane Silver's weapon skill - Absolute Penetration]

While the purple-striped water spider was in its thoughts, Leo disappeared from the mid-air and opened the portal below the purple-striped water spider before using another weapon skill.

'Clang'

Once again, it was useless as a metallic sound resounded when his sword touched the purple-striped water spider.

"Haha…human, you are really something."

The purple-stripe water spider could not help but laugh when it saw Leo's actions, attacking him twice with his powerful attacks.

"No matter how much you attack me, my passive talent [Metal Skin] will not let you leave a single scar on me…Haha."

'Swoosh'

While laughing, the purple-striped water spider shot white-coloured silk at Leo, which wrapped around Leo and made him collapse to the ground.

'He is fast.'

Even though Leo was wrapped in spider silk, he was not worried much.

[Mighty Combustion]

With his level 8 talent, Leo burned the spider skill around his body and instantly became free.

'Poison Darts'

The water spider was surprised for a moment before releasing another round of darts.

'Clang'

'Clang'

However, Leo deflected all the incoming poison darts with his sword before rushing at the purple-striped water spider.

Even though Leo could recover his energy by consuming the corpses, he could not use the same talent back to back within a few seconds.

So, he didn't use the [Space Manipulation], which he had used a few seconds back. Moreover, he needed that talent to escape into the secret dimensional space if things went south.

[Spider Slash]

[Fire Claw]

[Golden Net]

[Space Manipulation]

[Sleep Powder]

[Mighty Combustion]

.

.

Soon, the purple-striped water spider and Leo started fighting, using one talent after another and one skill after another.

"It is my first time seeing a human have so many talents and skills."

The fight ended in a stalemate as both sides couldn't injure each other. Hence, the purple-striped water spider praised Leo for his multiple skills and talents.

"However, I have played enough with you. Now, it's time to end the fight."

The purple-striped looked at Leo and continued, "Before that, I would like to give you an off…."

"Stop speaking and use your ultimate skill. I am curious about it."

Before the purple-striped water spider could finish its words, Leo scoffed at it and asked it to use its ultimate skill.

"Fine then. Since you want to die so badly, I will fulfil your wish. Don't worry, I will not waste a single piece of meat from your body and eat everything."

The purple-striped water spider was impressed with Leo's wide range of skills and talents. Moreover, it liked how confident Leo was. Hence, he decided to turn Leo into one of his minions.

However, the trait that is disliked in Leo the most is 'Looking down on it'.

Therefore, he decided to kill him and devour him.

[Ultimate Blade Hunt]

As soon as it finished its words, its sharp blade-like legs detached from its body and shone with bright purple-coloured light before rushing towards Leo.

[Space Manipulation]

As for Leo, he wanted to see the powerful attack of the purple-striped water spider. He was not worried that his curiosity would kill him because he had a perfect place to hide.

After seeing the eight long blades come toward him, Leo didn't waste any time jumping into his secret dimensional space.

"Haha…do you think you can escape by teleporting? I have already left my scent on you. No matter where you go, my legs will follow you and kill him."

The purple-striped water spider chuckled and was confident in his ultimate skill.

'What?'

Hearing those words, Leo was shocked and became anxious, 'I need to come up with a different plan.'
