I Can Upgrade My Talent In Everything-Chapter 347 - 347 Know thyself

347 Know thyself

‘This arrogant piece of this.’ Joshua couldn’t help but criticize as he saw a familiar silhouette showing off his lightning powers to the people. ‘But his master over his power had really reached a new level.’

Keneth Patio, also known as ‘Lightning McQuiver’ in the degu society. A rising genius, that ascended to C-rank when he turned twenty years old. His lethal lightning arrows enabled him to kill monsters at a far distance, and kill enemies stronger than him with his lightning spear. Though, he can’t use his lightning to boost his speed like other lightning users. Nonetheless, his godly aim made him a frightening death reaper in the long range.

Seeing the reaction of the people, and the awe on each of their faces. A smile appeared on Keneth’s face. He couldn’t help but enjoy the attention he was receiving.

After all, he was still as young as twenty years old and only fought enemies from far distances and everyone he fought was in the same realm as him. This resulted in him not experiencing much hardship. That’s why the growth in his mentality and character was not comparable to the likes of Michael and Fein.

Well, Fein experienced one worth of a lifetime, so he was in different leagues than them. This gave him maturity that shouldn’t belong for his age.

Lucian wants to give up the other party as he saw him showing off his powers like that. It was equivalent to indirectly helping him! After all, it would be more believable for the people if they saw the real thing in their eyes. And it was concrete proof that degu users really exist since they witnessed it themselves. This saves him a lot of trouble.

So, from Lucian’s point of view. Keneth became pleasing to his eyes. He didn’t expect such a thing to happen, but it was welcome.

The remaining degu users glared at Keneth Patio with daggers. Their eyes twitched slightly as they didn’t expect such a pig teammate to do such a stupid thing! Now, they can’t really back off if they want to!

Although, they are degu users of high status. They can do what they want in normal circumstances and ignore people brazenly. But that’s in normal times.

Now they are in a time of crisis and it didn’t involve only one civilian life. If they didn’t do anything to help. Their reputation in the degu society would be ruined. And the authorities might remove some of their privileges. If they were S-rank degu users, even if they didn’t help, it won’t affect them. After all, the S rank had the strength feared even by the authorities.

‘A pig teammate is really more frightening than a powerful enemy.’ Lucian wants to applaud right now because of joy.

Three minutes later, in the middle of the stadium, stood a group of degu users, numbering forty-eight. All of them had different temperaments that one can only see in elites of the human race. Due to their abilities, most degu users have a sense of confidence and superiority that distinguishes them from the common people.

“Brother, Y-you.” Josh was startled as he saw his older brother step forward. Because that only means one thing. His older brother was one of those degu users that possessed abilities!

Joshua gave his younger brother a helpless smile and says. “Sorry for keeping it to you. I hope you understand that I did this for your own safety.”

Josh was silent for a before he nodded. But in truth, he didn’t feel upset or anything. On the contrary, he felt excited, as his older brother had superpowers! How cool is that?

His older brother had been always good to him and take care of him patiently. So, Josh only has endless gratitude for his brother, who stood up for him in life and guided him.

Seeing this, Joshua smiled and focused on the group around him. Some of them were familiar to him, as he had encountered them in degu markets, and he even teamed up with them to hunt monsters.

“Now that all of you have bravely stepped forward. The chances of our survival became higher than when all of you were separated. All of you might have the chance to kill that monster.” Lucian said respectfully to the degu users.

Although the degu users found the guy annoying. They knew that his words spoke the truth. After all, if the forty-eight of them combine their strength, face the monster. They might really have the chance to kill it and avenge the people who died. At that time, they would become heroes and their reputations would rise.

“So what’s the plan, then? Since you’ve gathered us and talked confidently like that. It means you have a good plan in your head, right?” Joshua asked sarcastically.

‘As if I have a plan!’ Lucian thought secretly. Of course, he won’t say this. But he really didn’t have a plan. He’s only good with words but not planning. His understanding of psychology or the mind of people is his only strength. But when it comes to battle plans or anything. He was utterly clueless.

Although he knew that he could learn it with experience. Lucian wouldn’t bother, since he didn’t plan to become a strategist or something. What he was doing now already disgust him. He didn’t like manipulating people, if not necessarily. But it concerns his survival so he can only do it.

The only goal he had was for the degu users to take matters into their hands. As for the plan? What’s that?

“Of course, I have a plan.” Lucian could only pretend and spout bullshit or the image he built and the credibility of his words might get affected. “First, we need to know the abilities of each of you. We need to know what each of you can and can’t do. With that, we can come up with a good plan to would utilize your abilities to that maximum and even synergize with each other.”

The degu users nodded, as they also knew that they have to know their one selves first. And only then they would know the strength and weaknesses of each other and improve their coordination as a group. It’s crucial since they have to use every advantage they have to win against the monster.
