Chapter 19: Rapid Progress (3), Innate Talent Awakening

Aleron just touched the floating book to feel its texture, but all the knowledge within the book suddenly flooded into his mind, startling him.

And then his eyes brightened!

'Of course! This is a crazy boon with an unknown rank. If I can't even absorb a magic book's knowledge with a touch, then what's the point of having this high rank?!'

All the knowledge of that book was absorbed by him with a touch!

Aleron laughed out loud as the books lined up before him and he touched all of them one by one, absorbing all the magical knowledge with ease!

'I can understand everything…'

Odar returned from the kitchen and was dumbfounded, "Boss?"

"Well, no need to second guess," Riki laughed. "He is indeed one-tapping the books and learning everything within."

Darzax sighed in amazement, "He is indeed devouring all the knowledge."

Aleron's state was hyper at the moment, with his entire focus singularly imposed on the magical knowledge entering him as he digested everything!

'Magic is so awesome!'

After ten minutes, Aleron absorbed hundreds of books that Darzax took out, but without pausing for a second he looked at Darzax and said, "Dax, is that all? We got more or not?"

"For the magic-related books, that was all we had, my lord," Darzax wryly smiled.

"Oh…" Aleron sat on his chair and leaned back before putting his head on the table and arms around his head, "I'm going to take a nap."

"He must have been exhausted," Riki said with a chuckle. "He absorbed so much knowledge at once, after all."

*Tink*

Suddenly, an intricate magical symbol manifested around Aleron, dreamy and powerful.

And then one more magical symbol made of Magilore energy appeared.

And then one more, one more, and they started popping up fast.

In just a minute, there were thousands of magic symbols around Aleron!

"What's going on?" Odar asked with confusion.

"This Magilore energy…it is reacting to Aleron," Riki narrowed his eyes. "But it's not hard to decipher. The arcane language of these symbols is the same. It's just…"

"It's unrestrictive," Darzax murmured. "And its meanings are getting lost. I can't decipher anymore."

"Mhmm," Riki nodded. "Due to the monstrous Magilore control Aleron has and the otherworldy trait of this arcane energy, something is happening."

"Eh? This feels like talent awakening," Odar said while scratching the back of his head.

Instantly, Darzax and Riki looked at Odar.

"What?" Odar gulped.

Riki burst into laughter, "You are actually right.'

"Lord is awakening his innate talent…" Darzax nodded with a smile. "This possibility slipped my mind."

"It's just…we won't be able to imagine the scale of this innate talent due to the involvement of Magilore in this."

Another minute passed by before all the magic symbols suddenly shone and started gathering into a chaotic swirl of Magilore and ultimately turning into a pristine light purple crystal orb with a lapis blue whirlpool inside it.

But this orb floated into Aleron's head and entered inside.

Afterward, Aleron's aura burst out as the surrounding energy reacted to his breakthrough.

"Boss broke through to Exceptional rank!" Odar cheered with a shout. "Haha, I can't wait to see the innate talent he awakened. It must be crazy."

Aleron's eyes opened as they shone with refreshment and clarity like never before, stretching his arms and yawning, "I feel good. How long was I out for? Feels like I slept for hours."

Odar and Riki burst out laughing while Darzax lightly chuckled and answered, "My lord, you only slept for two minutes."

"Eh? And I broke through?" Aleron was surprised as he felt the newfound flow of power within him, "This…my innate talent?!"

[Spiritmind of Magilore]

_Description: The temple of the arcane, courtesy of your pure passion that resonated with Magilore about learning magic for the sake of nothing else but pure curiosity towards it. There is no one more worthy to embrace arcane than you.

_Effect(s):

—> You may understand all phenomena of magic on which your eyes lay and curiosity settles.

—> Desonctruct any skill, spell, or constructed form of magic by devouring it within the Spiritmind Space and even learning it, even if the Arcane Knowledge of those constructs is forbidden, secret, restrictive, or requires catalysts…as long as that knowledge is within the realm of Magilore.

"Horey shieat!" Aleron screeched.
