Conquering The Game's World-Chapter 10: Talents

Highly concentrated pure unrefined mana surged out of the mana gem, entering his body. If he can't control the energy flow in time, his weak body won't be able to handle such a vast amount of mana and he may explode from mana overdose.

That is also the reason why someone powerful with good control over mana is needed to help control this energy. In Luis' case, Ronald started controlling the vast amount of mana and let them merge with the existing mana inside his body. It was easy for him to let the energy flow through the mana channels, which were already opened because of Luis' natural awakening.

In the process of artificial awakening forcefully opening those channels is taxing to the person controlling the energy and very torturous and painful for the person being awakened.

But for Luis now, it was a very refreshing experience. As if he was soaking in a hot spring. His body was full of vigor. He felt a vast amount of energy inside him.

Though sometimes there was a slight pain. It was manageable. After all, he had experienced much worse. This process continued for the next 5 hours. Luis' entire body was soaking in sweat by the time they were done.

Ronald took a deep breath and said, "Done."

After a moment, Luis stood and felt as if his control over mana has increased and his body has become powerful, and the quality of mana is much purer than before.

"How do you feel?" Ronald asked with a smile.

"It's amazing," Luis replied excitedly.

"Come, let's check your talents and confirm your affinity."

Luis nodded his head while taking the towel from Lumine and wiping his sweat.

Ronald took them to another room inside the same building. This room was very plain, with white marble on all sides. There was no magic circle or anything, just an ancient slate near the front wall.

Luis knew what it was, but Ronald still introduced it.

"It's an ancient talent detection stone. Once you pass your mana energy on that tablet, it will determine your talents. Then you can connect the data with your mana bracelet."

Though the stone was ancient with the advancement of technology and mage craft. They were able to infuse ancient technology into modern technology and use them.

As Luis said, it is one of the methods of determining talents. But this one with the ancient talent detection stone gives the most accurate data of all.

Those who are born with talents are called geniuses among the ordinary. But among geniuses also there are grades. A talent is graded from

E --> D --> C --> B --> A -->S

E is the lowest and S is the highest potential.

The higher the grade, the higher the talent and potential of that individual in that certain field.

In this world, people can awaken up to three talents at their birth. At least that's what general knowledge says. An individual with a fighting talent of B-grade can be considered very good. A-grade is praised as geniuses and if someone has S-grade talent, then they are just considered monsters.

It doesn't mean that only people with those talents can learn it. Even if they don't have talent for a certain aspect, they can learn it with practice. It just there will be a certain gap between people with talent and people without talent.

For example, if a person doesn't have a talent for swordsmanship. If he works hard, he can still be powerful and learn the techniques. Though it may take years. But a person with talent can learn the same technique in less time. The higher the talent more easily they comprehend it. If a person has A-rank talent, he may take a few hours to a day to comprehend the techniques, while a person without talent may take years or maybe even decades.

Of course, effort needs to be put into practice.

But normally, even if people don't have talents, they still practice it. Because having talents doesn't mean everything if they can't use them properly. Though if a person has Archery Talent and they practice swordsmanship, then it's a waste of talent. But it doesn't mean they can't be a strong swordsman. Just it will take a lot more effort.

Luis knew very well once the story of the game starts, individuals with A and S-grade talents will be as common as melons in summer. Anyway, most of the heroines and other important characters have A and S-grade talents. As for the first protagonist, Luis was sure he had 4 S-grade talents. Just like the heroes of humanity who fought in the great war 50 years ago.

It is said that people can only have up to three talents, but there are individuals with four or more talents. But they are all powerhouses, so the general populace is unaware.

Anyway, for becoming stronger in this world, talent matters a lot. That's why Luis was a little anxious, wondering what kind of talents he had.

Now that he had awakened, he can find out the answer. This result will decide whether he will involve himself in the game story or stay far away from it.

The slate was connected to a screen which will not only show the data of his talents but his attribute and other information. Such as bloodline, rank, physique, skills, techniques, and titles.

Luis stepped towards the tablet with slow and steady steps and placed his palm on it, channeling his mana energy into it.

Ronald and Lumine were also looking at the screen in anticipation.

'If I don't have at least one A-grade talent, I'll just leave this country and go far away from here and wait for the story to end. Either everyone survives or everyone dies.' With that thought, he opened his eyes to see the final result.

His eyes were wide open in shock, as if he had seen a ghost. The same was the case for Luis' parents, who were watching from aside. They were in disbelief.
