'Good. Upgrade it then.'
As soon as he received the confirmation from the system, Leo didn't waste any time as he ordered the system to upgrade his system ability [Seal Swallowing Ability].
'Ding,
The host has spent a God Stone to upgrade the [Seal Swallowing Ability].
'Ding,
The host's [Seal Swallowing Ability] has been successfully upgraded to Legend Grade. Please check the full details in the [Hero's Interface].
As soon as he ordered the system, one God Stone disappeared from his [Dimensional Storage Place] and soon, he received the system notification regarding the system ability's successful upgradation.
'Let's hide and check the details.'
Soon, Leo entered the [Secret Dimensional Space] to take a short break and since the blood clones were still teleporting randomly, no one was able to sense that Leo's main body was missing.
'Ding,
System ability: Seal Swallowing Ability.
Grade: Legend.
Effects: 1) Upon activation, the host can swallow all normal types of seals below Mythical Grade, including some of the low-level mythical grade seals as long as the seals were in his line of sight.
2) The host can swallow all types of special and even super special seals below Legend grade as long as the seals were in his line of sight.
Note: 1) The swallowing time of the seals depends on the strength of the target. The higher the strength, the longer the time will be irrespective of the seal grade.
2) The host can reduce the swallowing time of the seals by coming into contact with the target.
Special Effect: Seal Swallower.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeal Swallower: Upon activation, all Slave Markers and their slaves would receive a 50 percent suppression in their battle prowess for one minute. Also, the swallowing time will be reduced by 50 percent during that one minute.
Cooldown: One hour.
Note: 1) The effect can be stacked with a basic title like [Legendary Killer] but can't be stacked with the effects like [Dragon Slayer], [Spider Killer] and so on.
2) The effect cannot be stacked with other talents.
In the next second, a holographic screen filled with the full information about the [Seal Swallowing Ability] appeared in front of Leo.
'Excellent. Now, I can swallow all types of special seals below the Legend Grade without the requirement of coming into contact with the target.'
Leo was excited when he saw the two effects of the [Seal Swallowing Abilitiy]; however, he suppressed it and decided to check whether it would be working or not.
[Seal Swallowing Ability - Inspect]
With that thought in mind, Leo activated the system ability to check the slave seals on the bodies of the slaves around Leo.
….
Seal Name: Growth Enhancing Slave Seal.
Swallowing Time: One second.
Target strength: Supreme Grade (level 1 to 3).
….
Seal Name: Growth Enhancing Slave Seal.
Swallowing Time: 30 seconds.
Target strength: Supreme Grade (level 3 to 6).
….
Seal Name: Growth Enhancing Slave Seal.
Swallowing Time: one minute.
Target strength: Supreme Grade (level 3 to 9).
…..
Soon, pop-ups started appearing on everyone's heads showing the full information of the seals engraved on the bodies of the slaves.
'Is the swallowing time based on without-contact swallowing?'
Leo revealed a slight smile when he guessed the swallowing time of the slave seals and became excited because he was sure about his assumption.
'I wonder how much quicker I can swallow these slave seals if I touch them?'
Even though Leo was tired of touching everyone individually to swallow the slave seals, Leo was willing to do it if it reduced the swallowing time by a lot.
'Also, there is a special effect for the ability now.'
What made Leo even more excited was the special effect that could be stacked with the effects of the title [Legendary Killer].
'If the 50 percent suppression from this special effect is stacked with the 25 percent from the [Legendary Killer], then overall, it would be a suppression of 75 percent in their battle prowess.'
Leo could not help but calculate the combined effects from the special effect and the title as he muttered, 'Even if they have the damage sharing, if all my monster kings and others attack them, they would die without a doubt.'
However, Leo was not interested in the slaves who don't have any feud with him.
Of course, if he didn't have a choice, then he would have killed them without any hesitation; however, he still had the choice where he could avoid killing them.
'Anyway, let's begin the show with the simple effects.'
Leo wanted to see how powerful his [Seal Swallowing Ability] has become and therefore, he wanted to test the simple effects before using the special effect.
[Seal Swallowing Ability - Simple Swallow].
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm'My targets will be level 1 to 3 supreme-ranked slaves.'
Since it only takes one second to swallow the slave seals from the level 1 to 3 supreme-ranked slaves, Leo decided to start his testing from them.
'Swoosh'
'Swoosh'
'Ding,
The host has swallowed the [Growth Enhancing Slave Seal].
.
.
Soon, Leo's head was filled with the system notifications as he swallow one slave seal every second.
"What's happening?"
"Someone, stop him."
"How can he swallow my slave seals without any contact?"
"Moreover, what's with his insane swallowing speed?"
Compared to before, Leo was not moving here and there and all he needed to do was look at someone for a second before that person or beast became unconscious before falling to the ground.
'Should I retreat?'
Suddenly, for the first time in his life, Jayden became anxious and scared because he was no longer confident that he could defeat Leo much less make him his slave.
He even thought of retreating with the rest of his slaves.
'This is so good. All I have to do is just look at them.'
On the other hand, Leo was having fun as he stared at the slaves and whenever someone attacks him, he would casually teleport from the place before repeating the process.
'I think he wants to escape…it's time to go all out.'
