Ruler's Awakening: Inheritor of the SSS-Rank Dimensional Talent

"50000 RL from that man. Is there anyone who bids higher?" asked the shopkeeper.

Not only was he looking at Aaron, but he also noticed the presence of his friend's son beside him. That immediately made him know that the man must be a friend of his blacksmith friend.

People looked at each other. Some turned their heads and saw Aaron's figure, who looked like a typical adventurer.

The shopkeeper started counting down from five. If there were no higher offers, the five pieces of MP Crystal Level 3 would belong to Aaron completely.

35000 RL was already a high price for it, let alone 50000 RL. They would certainly be reluctant to spend that money just for MP Crystals, unless he was as obsessed as Aaron.

"Five."

"Four."

"Three."

"Two."

"One!"

"Sold to that young man at 50000 RL for five pieces of MP Crystal Level 3," said the shopkeeper. The people applauded Aaron.

The young man stepped through the crowd. They opened the way so the mysterious and wealthy young man could come to the shop and finalize the transaction. Aaron smiled, meeting the shopkeeper.

"Is he a friend of your father's, Jones?" the shopkeeper asked the boy who drove Aaron here.

"Yeah. He saved my father's goods from thieves," said Jones.

"Really? People sometimes play ignorant and choose not to interfere in other people's matters."

"But he's different. He's a good man," said Jones, the shopkeeper agreeing with the boy's words.

"So, do you have the money?"

"Show me the goods first. I'll show you my money."

"Alright."

The shopkeeper took five pieces of MP Crystal Level 3 and showed them to Aaron. Aaron moved his face forward and then narrowed both eyes, paying attention to the quality and details of the item. The shopkeeper didn't mind if Aaron wanted to see the item's details.

[Item Details:]

[Name: Crystal MP]

[Grade: 3]

[Description: Useful for increasing one's MP capacity. The amount of MP will be full if the Host successfully levels up to the next level. The additional MP capacity is 5000 / MP Crystals.]

'I still have two MP Crystals Level 2. If I add five MP crystals from him, maybe I can increase the MP capacity of 27000.'

'That's a decent amount when added to my current MP capacity. Perhaps I can use three of my five sub-talents,' Aaron said, still paying attention to the detailed item panel.

"How? I'm not a scammer. I sell things the way I tell them."

"Yeah. I can see that."

Jones helped the shopkeeper pick up the digital payment box. Aaron placed his system watch on top of it, the transaction panel was successful.

[Transaction successful]

[Item: MP Crystal]

[Level: 3]

[Quantity: 5]

[Buyer: Aaron Lewis]

[Price: 50000 RL]

[Information: -]

After confirming that he got the money from the items he sold, the shop owner thanked him and handed over the five items to Aaron.

He told him to always visit his shop because Aaron was one of his special customers.

"Those who have spent over 50000 RL in my shop will get special favor. You've become part of that," said the shopkeeper.

"How many people have done it before me?"

"You're the first person to do so in one day."

'Ah, of course.'

Aaron took two MP Crystal Level 2 items from his digital storage. He placed them all on top of his hand; there were seven MP Crystals with different levels.

Without thinking, Aaron directly used the MP crystals by crushing them. The energy streams from the seven MP Crystals flowed in through Aaron's forehead.

Jonas and the shopkeeper faintly saw a white tattoo pattern on Aaron's forehead when using the MP Crystals.

[MP Crystals Has Been Used]

[MP Crystals Level 2 detected]

[MP Crystals Level 3 detected]

[MP Capacity +27000]

[Total MP Capacity: 24400/52400 MP]

Aaron was satisfied with the increase this time, but it wasn't perfect. At least he needed to have an MP capacity of more than 200000 MP to be able to handle all of his sub talents.

"You have a lot of MPs. Are you interested in buying rank A talent slips and choosing a talent suitable for you?" asked the shopkeeper, making Aaron's eyes squint sharply.

"About rank talent slips...."

The man brought out his items again, six rank A talent slips and a rank S talent slip. The difference between the two was quite significant, especially in looks. The A rank talent slip was red, while the S rank talent slip was white.

The shopkeeper gasped. He was completely wrong to offer Aaron the talent rank slips. He would gladly help Aaron choose another talent to fill his Secondary Talent slot. Jones followed Aaron from the side.

The lanky shopkeeper took out a cylinder-shaped item with a light beam inside. He asked Aaron to put one talent rank at a time, the young man did as he was told.

One rank A talent slip went into the light slider. It was seen that the slip began to float in the light and continued to glow bright red. Surprisingly, the red color of the slip turned black as time passed.

"What's going on?" asked Aaron.

"Calm down, sir. This thing is absorbing the talent in the slip. You'll know the results soon enough."

[Talent Rank slip has been used]

[Grade: A]

[Starts selecting talents randomly]

Another panel appeared before the cylinder, showing the words that Aaron had used in one of the seven rank talent slips.

He never expected talent selection to be randomized rather than determined by him.

The gacha circle appeared, totaling 30 talents ready to be selected. Aaron questioned the credibility of this thing, fearing that the talent selection was nonsense when the shopkeeper had the authority to control the gacha.

The shop owner assured Aaron that this cylindrical object worked independently without interference from other people.

What determined whether a talent was good or not was the LUCK attribute they had.

"The greater your LUCK attribute, the higher your chances of getting the best talent in rank A."

"Can I delay it while I improve my status?" Aaron asked.

"Sure. The gacha will stay there for thirty minutes. If you don't pick it up immediately after thirty minutes, the rank talent slip will be forfeited, and you will lose."

"I see. This won't take long."

Aaron took out an item in the form of the level three full attribute status booster that Daniels had given him.

He also brought up the system panel that showed his attribute status, quite a few ability points he hadn't allocated yet.

[STATUS ABILITIES]

[CP: 74343] [+600]

[STR: 47] [+20]

[AGI: 66] [+10]

[INT: 94] [+45]

[LUCK: 41] [+25]

[DEX: 54] [+20]

[Ability Point: 0] [-120]

After allocating enough ability points, he started using Status Attribute Full Booster Level 3. He pressed the slip and put some power into it. Another system panel appeared before the slip, displaying text and some numbers.

[Status Attribute Full Booster slip has been used]

[Grade: 3]

[Status Attribute Boost: +25]

[Starts allocating points to the Host's attribute status]

[Host: Aaron Lewis]

The Abilities Status panel reappeared before Aaron, the synchronization between the slip and Aaron's attribute status system succeeded smoothly. Now, Aaron could see each of his attributes increased by +25

[STATUS ABILITIES:]

[CP: 74943] [+625]

[STR: 67] [+25]

[AGI: 76] [+25]

[INT: 139] [+25]

[LUCK: 66] [+25]

[DEX: 74] [+25]

[Ability Point: 0]

Jones and the shopkeeper looked carefully at every moment when Aaron's attribute status increased. With the number of LUCK attributes around 91 points, the shopkeeper was confident that Aaron could get a good A-rank talent —not a lowly one.

"How is it? Are you ready?"

"Yeah."

The shopkeeper guided Aaron to press the circle button immediately in the center of the spinning wheel. Aaron's palm touched it, the yellow light began to glow brightly as the spinning wheel moved quickly clockwise.

[Talent Rank Selection begins]

[Grade: A]

[Host: Aaron Lewis]

Now, the thrilling moment came. Aaron continued to watch how the spinning wheel would decide the talent rank of the slip.

Slowly, the wheel spun with the clock hand pointing to a section labeled 'Weapon-Based Summoning'. Aaron squinted, rather curious about what the Weapon-Based Summoning talent meant.

[Talent Rank Selection successful]

[Talent: Weapon-Based Summoning]

[Rank: A]

[Stage: First]

[Description: The power of the talent to summon weapons according to the memories and manifestations of the host's mind. The number of weapons which can be summoned is limited according to the host's imagination]

[Add talent rank to Secondary Talent]

[Yes] [No]

"A unique power. You can summon any weapon according to your wish. That's good, I think."

'Right. It might be good for them, but I can't waste my secondary talent on something like Weapon-Based Summoning.'

'I need to get a good talent at S rank!'

Aaron pressed the No button on the system panel before him, startling Jones and the shopkeeper. The talent slip became burnt and blackened, no longer usable, nor was the talent.

"W-What have you done? It's a good talent, and many people want it."

"I want to do the talent selection again. Can you give me a hand?" asked Aaron, firmly.

"I can, but Rank A talent is like that. You have to accept it."

"I don't want to do the Rank A talent selection."

"Then?" asked the shopkeeper.

"I want S-rank talent!"
