Talent Swallowing System

The last level 1 spider captain standing was none other than the purple-striped water spider.

Leo intentionally didn't kill it because he wanted to play with it for some time until the other water spiders arrived.

"What do you want? Why didn't you kill me?"

Even though it was fearful that Leo didn't kill it, it felt a little hopeful because as long as it stalled for some time, the level 2 spider captains and generals would come to its rescue.

"Didn't I say I want a rematch?"

Leo slowly walked towards the purple-striped water spider and replied.

"I admit defeat. You are the winner. Let me live."

Whether it was a human or a beast, which living being wants to get killed? As soon as it heard Leo's words, the purple-striped water spider admitted defeat.

After seeing how easily Leo killed the night supreme-ranked water spiders, the purple-striped water spider didn't have any hope of defeating Leo. Hence, without any hesitation, it admitted defeat.

"What? I have great expectations for our fight? Why do you admit defeat already?"

Leo shook his head in disappointment.

"However, if you suppress your strength by 50 percent, I will fight you."

Seeing Leo's disappointment, the purple-striped water spider hurriedly said it would have a rematch with Leo if he gave a handicap for it.

'I just need to stall for a few minutes. They will come to my rescue soon.'

The purple-striped water spider muttered to itself as it tried its best, stalling Leo from killing it.

"Handicap? Leave it…I am no longer interested in a rematch."

Leo shook his head and said, "Instead, I have other plans for you."

'Slash'

As soon as he finished his words, Leo slashed one of the purple-striped water spider's legs.

'Aargh'

The water spider groaned in pain and angrily looked at Leo; however, it was not in a position to do anything as its legs had adhered to the ground, and now it even lasted one of its legs.

Leo knew it could not do anything no matter how angry the purple-striped water spider was. Even if it does anything, he was ready for it.

'Do you want to see something interesting?'

Leo played with the spider leg for a while and asked the purple-striped water spider.

[Absolute Devour]

The devil's mouth appeared on his palm and devoured the long black-like spider leg as though it were a carrot.

"Crr….wild human, I am going to kill you."

[Sleep powder]

Finally, it could not control its anger anymore as it used one of its attacks to put Leo into an eternal sleep.

[Fireball]

However, Leo summoned a fireball and burnt the purple-coloured powder released by the purple-striped water spider.

"No matter what attack you use, I have a perfect counter for it."

Leo had already decided to toy with the purple-striped water spider for putting him in a cage. So, there was no way he would let it die peacefully.

'Ding,

The host only consumed a small portion of the purple-striped water spider. Please consume fully to have a chance to awaken one of its talents or skills.

The system informed Leo that only by consuming the full body of a monster or a beast or human could he trigger the effect of the [Absolute Devour].

'I already know it.'

Leo didn't think about the system notification as he looked at the purple-striped water spider and said, "I will let you watch how I devour your body slowly."

'Slash'

'Slash'

With a simple slash, Leo slashed off all the spider legs and devoured them right in front of its eyes, making the purple-striped water spider's eye red with fury.

"Now, I will let you watch how I devour your fellow water spiders."

Since the level 2 spider captains and the generals still haven't arrived, Leo decided to let the purple-striped water spider live for a few more minutes.

Meanwhile, he decided to devour the nine supreme-ranked water spiders he had killed earlier.

'Kacha'

'Slurp'

'Ding,

The host devoured nine level 1 supreme-ranked water spiders and awakened a new skill.

'Ding,

The host's talent [Water resistance] upgraded to level 8. To upgrade it to level 9, please trigger the effects of the talent 100 times.

'Ding,

The host's skill [Dual Silver Skin Hardening] is upgraded to level 8…..

.

.

Leo's skills and talents from the [Absolute Devour] were upgraded to level 8 after devouring the nine supreme-ranked water spiders.

'As expected of the supreme-ranked beings. The experience gained from devouring is enough to let a level 1 talent or skill reach the level 8.'

Leo nodded at the talents, and the skills upgraded to level 8.

'Also, I awakened a new skill. I hope it was a talent but still I don't have anything to complain about.'

Leo decided to check what type of skill he had awakened; however, before he could check it, a system notification rang in his head, making him pleasantly surprised.

'Ding,

The host's talent [Absolute Devour] is upgraded to level 8.

'I wonder what type of effects it will unlock after reaching level 9 and the supreme rank.'

The talent [Absolute Devour] was already heaven-defying. So, Leo was waiting for the talent to upgrade to supreme rank one day.

Soon, he checked the changes in the [Absolute Devour], which had some increment in the awakening chances; however, it was not by much.

'I am already happy with the [Absolute Devour], even if it doesn't unlock any new effects after reaching level 9, I don't mind.'

It was not guaranteed that all talents would unlock a new effect. Only a few special talents, like [Space Manipulation] and [Mighty Combustion], could unlock.

Sometimes, even these talents would not awaken any new effects.

'Let's see the new skill.'

After keeping his thoughts on the [Absolute Devour] aside, Leo opened the [User Interface] to check out his new skill.

"Who dares to wreak havoc in the Mother's Den?"

However, before he could check it, an angry voice resounded in the hall as Leo saw eight powerful-looking water spiders enter the hall.
