Talent Swallowing Hero

The Arcane Silver Sword is a rank 8 weapon and partially awakened its consciousness.

Moreover, he was connected to it and didn’t want its awakened soul to get devoured by some random beast soul.

Leo used it only after making sure that it won’t be a problem to use the Beast Soul Stone on the Arcane Silver.

Another thing about awakening the weapon soul was a massive temptation for Leo because only Supreme-grade weapons or artifacts could awaken the souls. If his Arcane Silver could awaken a soul, it would be on par with the supreme-grade weapons.

‘At that time, I can kill the level 1 supreme-ranked beings on my own.’

Leo wanted a powerful weapon that could insta-kill the supreme-ranked beings, and with the help of the Beast Soul Stone, it was possible.

‘Ding,

The host wants to use the Beast Soul Stone on the rank 8 Arcane Silver Sword. Please confirm it once again before using it.

‘Yes. I want to use it.’

Leo was able to kill the rank 9 monsters and the mutated beast with the rank 8 sword, and he was looking forward to seeing how powerful it would become after upgrading to rank 9.

‘Swoosh’

Soon, the arcane silver sword started shining with bright silver colour; however, since Leo was currently inside his secret dimensional space, he was not worried about getting noticed by the water spiders._-.

‘Ding,

Congratulations to the host for successfully upgrading the arcane silver sword to rank 9.

‘Ding,

The sword has fully awakened its soul and successfully merged with the Ancestor Serpent Soul.

It only took a few minutes for Arcane Silver to finish its upgrade, and it not only awakened a soul but also merged with the beast soul.

‘So soon. Let’s check the changes in Arcane Silver.’

Leo saw the rank 9 water spider throw the lion cub into the same den they escaped from earlier. So, he stopped following the water spider and checked the information on the upgraded sword.

‘Ding,

Weapon Name: Arcane Silver (Soul awakened).

Grade: Rank 9.

Effect: 200 percent increase in the battle prowess of the user.

Weapon Skills: Absolute Penetration, Artifact Eater, Silver Slash.

Soul skill: Ancestor Serpent Manifestation.

‘Overall upgrade in the effect and two new skills.’

Leo could not help but become excited when he saw the rank 9 Arcane Silver information because he didn’t expect the weapon to awaken two new skills along with the overall change in the weapon’s effect.

Previously it was only a 100 percent increase in his strength and defence; however, now, it has doubled. Moreover, it was not limited to only strength and defence; instead, his overall battle prowess.

‘Let’s see what the new skills can do.’

With a single thought, the information on the new weapon skill and the soul skill appeared before Leo.

‘Ding,

Weapon Skill: Silver Slash

Effect: The weapon holder can release the sword waves at the enemies standing some distance from the holder.

Note: The closer the weapon holder to the enemies, the higher the damage will be.

‘Ding,

Soul Skill: Ancestor Serpent Manifestation.

Effect: When this skill is activated, a giant phantom of the Ancestor Serpent will appear above the weapon holder for five minutes. The phantom gives the following benefits to the holder.

1) All serpent-type monsters, beasts or tribe members below the Supreme rank will acknowledge the weapon holder as their master until the phantom disappears.

2) As for the supreme-ranked serpent-type beings, their battle prowess will be reduced by 10 percent.

‘[Silver Slash] is not bad. I can now use the sword for long range attacks also.’

Leo was satisfied with the weapon skill; however, when he saw the soul skill, he was shocked.

‘What? Becoming the master of all the serpent-type beings for five minutes?’

Even though it was only for five minutes, Leo knew how he could change the tides of a battle.

Imagine one of the human cities was invaded by a group of monsters and the mutated beasts, and let’s say there were some serpent-type monsters and beasts.

If Leo used [Ancestor Snake Manifestation], then he could make the monsters and beasts fight among themselves.

‘Moreover, a 10 percent decrease in the supreme-ranked serpent-type beings will give me quite an advantage against them.’

Overall, Leo was pretty much satisfied with upgrading his Arcane Silver.

‘I wonder whether I can kill the supreme-ranked beings with the Arcane Silver now?’

However, deep down, his human heart was still greedy, and he asked himself, ‘If I had the chance to use this stone on my Quasi-supreme grade Battle axe, then it would have been even better, right?’

Since the battle-axe was only an inch away from becoming the Supreme grade, Leo felt it would have been even easier to kill the supreme-ranked beings if he could have used the Beast Soul Stone on the battle-axe.

‘Anyway, I still think I have two weapons that could deal some damage towards the level 1 supreme ranked beings.’

Pushing his greedy thoughts aside, Leo looked at the den where the lion cub was caged and thought, ‘I will finish these corpses before saving him.’

Leo didn’t want to waste the corpses. Therefore, he started devouring them one after another.

….

In the meeting den of the Water Spiders,

“Since everyone is here, I will explain the plan.”

Seeing that the Purple-striped water spider entered the meeting den, the voice of the ‘Mother of the Water Spiders’ resounded in the den.

“Yes, Mother.”

There were 21 water spiders in the meeting den of different sizes and coloured; however, everyone remained respectful towards the voice.

“After a few discussions with the Zephyr Giant Eagle and the Terra Bull Tyrant, we have come to the conclusion that we should eliminate the Flaming Lions from the Beastnet.”

The female voice resounded in the meeting den, surprising all 21 supreme-ranked spiders.

“Mother, I am waiting for this moment. Let’s erase the Lions.”

“Yes, Mother. Those lions think they are invincible.”

“Let’s show them what we are capable of.”

“If we three races attack the Flaming Lions together, we can easiy kill them.”

Soon, they excitedly replied to the ‘Mother of the Water Spider’ as though no one could save the Flaming Lions from them anymore.
