I Can Upgrade My Talent In Everything

-Cedrick's POV-

I didn't think we'd have a problem this time. We came upon another Degu user. His aura was smooth, sophisticated, and powerful. It indicates that he had complete control of his Degu.

I looked at Kruger, and he returned my gaze. We already know what each other is thinking because we've been friends for a long time.

Without hesitation, we charged towards the adversary. Degu users' battles are always surprising. You're up at first, but you could lose in the next second.

I quickly utilized my ability, transforming my hands into a long, sharp scythe capable of cleaving through metal.

Kruger took a boxing position next to me, bouncing his foot on the ground in an upside-down motion. Now the enemy was staring at us calmly. Previously, the traces of rage on his face had vanished.

Kruger chose to launch the initial assault. He used his left hand to punch the opponent, while I chose to help him by blocking the enemy's escape route.

When the enemy saw the incoming fist, he assumed a grappling stance. Kruger's fist has been snatched from the enemy's grasp. He squatted down to let Kruger fall on his own, while also using the accumulated momentum to his advantage and throwing him in my direction.

I used a dodging maneuver while charging at the enemy. I slashed him with my scythe as quickly as I could.

Because of the sharpness of my scythe, I couldn't even feel the slightest resistance in the air. I'm confident that if I can just hit him with this, he'll be cleaved into two pieces.

Even with my quick attack, the enemy only gave me a mocking smile.

"What is he smiling at!" I growled at him with killing intent.

The air creaked as a result of my quick attack speed.

'How fast his body can be...' I shuddered.

Every time I attack, he manages to turn his body in an uncanny manner.

As time passes... My rage grew stronger by the second. He was behaving as if I were a fool. But I must admit that his reflexes and speed were superior to mine.

"Kruger, what are you doing? We need to finish this battle," I yelled at my companion, who was now approaching us.

He was massaging the area on his forehead where the blood was flowing.

'Shit, this isn't looking good,' I thought to myself.

...

-Fain's Point of View-

I expected the battle to be fierce. I didn't expect their abilities to be so limited. As a result, I decided to use them as a practice tool. After all, I was eager to put my training to the test in a real battle.

The two are now looking at me with trepidation. They must have realized that they needed to work together in order to defeat me.

"You'll take the right side, and I'll take the left. He's certainly strong, but can he fight the two of us forever?" Cedrick said confidently.

"As one would expect from the future leader of the A1 division," the bald man says, licking his lips. Cedrick appeared pleased after hearing his compliments.

'They're certainly taking their time, how stupid.' I grumbled.

I resolved to put an end to this farce once and for all. I make a popping sound with my fist to indicate that I am now serious.

I charged them quickly and without saying much. It was pointless to argue with idiots like them.

They turned to face me, as was their plan. Cedrick, on the other hand, moves to my left. The bald shit approached me on my right side. Kruger attacked me with caution this time. He must have learned his lesson from the first encounter.

"Well, you're not that stupid after all," I teasingly said to him.

I deflected his attack by using the defensive style of Karate, and he was pushed back by my technique. And just as I was about to punch him with a Chinese Kenpo leaf punch, the other one slashed me with his scythe. I must admit that his ability is lethal; I must remain cautious against it, which is why I decided to retract my fist patiently.

Kruger's face was filled with rage as he looked at me.

"Your combat techniques are as annoying as you," he said, looking down at me.

"You're an idiot, you don't even have the attitude to respect your opponent's martial arts, so please shut up your stinky mouth for a second, you fucking bald worthless meathead, your brain is filled with muscles," I said, unleashing a barrage of insults that I had seen in the Facebook comment section in my previous life.

He appeared enraged by what I said. His eyes were bloodshot, and his mouth twitched slightly.

"Fuck you!" was the only thing he managed to say before charging at me like a bull at full speed. His body was now surrounded by a pink barrier.

'Gotcha,' I thought.

Cedrick's eyes widened as he saw Kruger charge at me, realizing that something was wrong with the situation. "Stop! He was trying to provoke you to attack."

However, it was too late. He couldn't hear what Cedrick was saying because his rage had blinded him.

I took advantage of the situation by retrieving my sword from the storage area. I used Nanaya Arts: Flashing Dash and infused 30% of my Degu into my sword. I immediately accelerated to my top speed behind him. I swiftly waved my sword at his neck.

My sword pierces through his neck. The pink barrier held out against my attack for at least three seconds before crumbling. I was expecting it because my sword was infused with my degu, and my speed boosted my attack even more.

Blood spurted continuously on Kruger's neck before he realized what was going on. I kicked his head, sending it flying in the opposite direction.

Cedrick had a horrified expression on his face as he looked at me.

I took advantage of this opportunity to use Flashing Dash to appear beside him and slash at him decisively. He successfully blocks it with his scythe.

When I realized this, I gathered the full force of my body, which was equivalent to B Rank, and infused half of my degu reserves into my arm to increase its power.

His scythe, which was blocking my sword, trembled as a result of the sudden increase in force, and it didn't last long before cracks appeared on it.

*Argh*

Cedrick howled in agony, his face twisted in pain. His ability has been forcibly canceled, resulting in a backlash. His arms were now at his sides, bleeding profusely, like a dead dog.

I swung my sword at him, determined to take his life.

He looked at me with hatred after realizing there was no way out.

"My lord will not let you go! Your family and friends, those close to you, will suffer! My lord will rule this world," he quipped, laughing hysterically.
