Talent Swallowing System

In one of the many caves in the Ogre's territory,

'Ding,

The host's special talent [Poison Tempest] has upgraded to peak level 9.

'Ding,

The [Poison Tempest] has been successfully mutated and became [Tri-coloured Poison Tornado].

As the cave slowly brightened from the sun rays entering through the cave entrance, Leo received two system notifications and woke him up from his torture.

'Phew…for enduring the cruel pain, the talent is mutated. It's totally worth the pain.'

HIs [Poison Tempest] was already a special talent, and if it gets mutated, it would only become more powerful.

Therefore, Leo felt it was worth enduring the pain and checked the information.

'Ding

Talent Name: Tri-coloured Poison Tempest (peak level 9).

Talent Type: Special.

Effect: 1) The host can summon 12 red-coloured poison tornadoes that could swallow everything that comes in its way. If the target is fire-type beasts and monsters, the damage will be doubled compared to the other type of beasts and monsters.

2) The host can summon 12 blue-coloured poison tornadoes, which doubles the damage towards water-type beings.

3) The host can summon 12 brown-coloured poison tornadoes, which double the damage towards Earth-type beings.

Special effect: The host can summon all 36 poison tornadoes at once.

Note: The normal effect has a cooldown of five minutes, whereas the special effect has a cooldown of one hour for the entire talent.

'What? A total of 36 posion tornadoes?'

Leo was pleasantly surprised by the special effect of the talent.

'I think I can kill dozens of level 1 supreme-ranked beings with this talent.'

Since Leo has the titles to decrease the battle prowess of his enemies, he was confident in easily killing the dozens of level 1 supreme-ranked beings.

'Since I have taken care of everything, it's time to check on the enslaved humans of this world.'

With that thought in mind, Leo stood up from the ground.

'Where is Sutin? I wonder whether his evolution was a success or not?'

Only then did Leo realize that the Terra Bull Tyrant was not in the cave and looked for him in the cave before walking out of the cave.

"Master, you woke up?"

Just as Leo walked out of the cave, he heard Sutin's excited voice from a distance.

"Sutin?"

In the next second, Leo was shocked by Sutin's appearance, which was completely different from before.

"Yes, master. I evolved into this form."

Sutin replied while showing his teeth.

The current form of Sutin was not a terra bull anymore; instead, he had become a minotaur, a humanoid with bullhead.

'Congratulations on your successful evolution.'

Leo was pleasantly surprised that Sutin would evolve into a humanoid race in his first evolution itself. Hence, he congratulated Sutin, saying, "Your evolution into the minotaur proves that you have relatively become a little more intelligent than before."

It was a known fact that minotaurs were much more intelligent compared to the bulls because they were a few steps ahead of the bull in their evolutionary forms.

"It's all thanks to your help, master. I will continue to follow you and become more intelligent."

Sutin was grateful to Leo as he thanked him from the bottom of his heart.

Not only did he evolve into a Terra Minotaur Tyrant, but he also became a level 7 supreme-ranked beast hero, and the most important thing was that his horns grew back again.

"Do you know where the human territory is?"

Since Sutin was one of the bestial rulers, Leo asked him where the human territory was.

"Of course, I know."

Sutin nodded as he replied, "Since the humans are the most intelligent beings I have ever seen, I avoided going to their territory as much as possible, and I even ordered my underlings to do the same."

"Haha…who said you didn't have intelligence? The moment you decided to avoid the humans, you became an intelligent beast."

Leo laughed a little and praised Sutin.

"However, in the end, I was fooled by the master."

Sutin bitterly smiled as they travelled towards the Human's territory.

"It was because of the Flaming Lion Race's Heir that you forgot your principle of avoiding humans."

Since Sutin was his follower, Leo tried to console him.

"However, I think it is better this way; otherwise, I would have remained dumb all of life until get betrayed by one of the bestial rulers. At least by following, I might have a chance of becoming an intelligent being."

As he looked at the bright side, Sutin was not sad about getting fooled by Leo.

...

"Master, I sense two humans a few kilometers away from here."

As Leo rode Sutin, who had transformed into his old form to become Leo's mount, he heard Sutin's words.

Since Sutin is a level 7 supreme-ranked beast hero, he obviously has good sense despite being a bull. Hence, he could sense the smell of the humans from a few kilometers.

"Go ahead. Let's see."

Leo gave permission to Sutin to move in that direction while hoping, 'I hope those two humans have level 4 or low-level enslaving seals on their bodies.'

According to what Leo learned from the Flaming Lion King, all the humans were enslaved by someone.

Since his [Seal Swallowing Ability] is only level 4, Leo hoped the humans to have level 4 enslaving seals as he could swallow the seals and free them from their enslavement.

"Master, I feel one of the two humans is a supreme-ranked hero. Should I capture them as soon as we reach there?"

As Sutin ran, he asked Leo whether he should capture them because it might be difficult for Leo to remove the enslaving seals from the supreme-ranked heroes.

"Sure but don't kill them and avoid injuring them as much as possible."

Leo nodded and agreed to Sutin's help as he added some orders.

…..

"Sister, we were waiting for her yesterday night. Are you sure he will come this way?"

A few kilometers away from Leo, Arlo and Aurora were sitting under a tree as Arlo complained to Aurora regarding their waiting.

"Let's wait for a few more hours before heading to theEmberfields."

According to her [Prophecy] talent, they should be meeting Leo here; however, her talent failed multiple times in the past. So, she was unsure whether it would be a failure this time.

'Mooh~'

Soon, they heard a bellow from a distance, and in the next second, they saw a huge terra bull rushing toward them.

It was rushing towards them at an incredible speed, as the ground shook every time the terra bull's hooves touched the ground.

"Sister, why do I have a bad feeling about this?"

Arlo unconsciously summoned a shining saber and entered into a fighting stance.

"Arlo, don't move from your place."

On the other hand, Aurora revealed an excited smile when she saw the young man sitting on the huge terra bull's back.

'Finally, he is here.'

She couldn't help but clench her fist in excitement.

"Sister, are you sure about it? That huge terra bull seems like he wants to knock me out with its head."

Arlo frowned as he asked his sister once more.

"Sorry, Arlo, I didn't say this before that you have to get hit by it."

"What?"

Just as Aurora finished her words, Sutin was already close by, and before Arlo could react, he was knocked out by the huge terra bull.
