I Can Upgrade My Talent In Everything

Celine Drior, daughter of a former Earl. Unfortunately, they lost their title because they caught his father conspiring with the royal family of Reinsurance, a great country in the Northern Region.

She was also exiled from the country due to the enmity of the royal family. Celine's father, Mark Drior, an A-ranked peak degu user that was about to break through to S rank in one year was dissatisfied with the Royal Family for the reason of not giving him the title of Duke that he deserve with all the contributions he has on the country and with the strength he possessed.

Mark Drior cooperated with the second prince. He would assassinate the current, who wasn't even a degu user himself, and also the crown prince. With that, the second prince would secure the throne by himself and promote Mark to Duke!

The plans sound beautiful, but they've underestimated the strength of the royal family. Reinsurance is, after all, a great country, and he was dumb enough to think that there will be no secret power person protecting the king.

In the end, their plans were foiled. Mark Drior and the second prince's corpse were found in a dark alley one day. Celine was still young at that time. The Reinsurance had banished her from the country and became an orphan. Their family also lost the title as a punishment.

Celine Drior was frail and has a weak personality so the other child in the orphanage in the small country of 'Pampanga' bullied her. She can't injure it any longer, so she left the orphanage and live the life of a homeless girl.

She was forced to eat once a day, and sometimes she can't even eat anything when she fails to collect money from the people in the market. Yeah, she became a beggar. People would often look at her with pity and disgust. But it is also because of this that she becomes braver. Her weak personality is no more.

"Until one day, the president of the Heraldry Knight came to her rescue and adopted her when he saw the talent she possessed, a talent that is higher than his own. Of course, he didn't spoon-feed her. He let her climb within the ranks of the organization with his own ability. This made others admire her more." James recounted, with a smile on his face.

Fein felt that he was listening to the story of a hero or the main character of a story. A noble that became a beggar with low-self esteem and experienced the humbling of life. Then she rose again and turned into a valiant hero and strong woman! Isn't this exactly like the story of female lead novels he had read in the past!?

'I didn't expect this.'

"So, this story is well known in your organization?" Fein turned his head at James.

"Not only in the organization. Even in the North and West. She's an absolute legend. The Reinsurance country wants her to come back and offered her the title of Duke. But Celine simply refused." James chuckled. "They lost an S rank degu user just like that. If they are not a great country, they would have become a laughingstock already. Unfortunately, Reinsurance is the strongest country of the Mountain Valley Great Alliance that has twelve degu users in their ranks."

"They have a twelve S rank?"

James saw Fein's pupils flicker for a moment before they disappeared. He wondered what was goi g through the other party's mind.

"What's the fuss?" James nodded. "The Hosu country in this Southern Region has ten of them."

'What!?' This is the first Fein heard of the number of S ranks distribution in the country. Fein became serious and said. "Tell me more about it."

James scratched his cheek and tried to organize his thoughts. "About the distribution of S ranks?"

Fein simply nodded and look at him, waiting for his answer.

Seeing this, James opened his mouth. "Well, only a few people know this information, but it wasn't a secret either." He took a deep breath. Then continued. "The South, or this region, where the Xeno Great Alliance was located. There are approximately thirty-two S rank degu users in total."

Hearing this, Fein became more aware of his heartbeat. Thirty-two S ranks? That's already a large number considering the difficulty of ascension in the S rank realm...

James noticed the change in Fein's expression and couldn't help but smile a little. Then he began to tell him about the distribution of S ranks in each country.

"You should already know that the Xeno Great Alliance was composed of five great countries, right?"

Fein nodded.

"The Felmundia country has six S rank degu users. And it's the third strongest in the alliance. As for San Luebisto, which was the second strongest, it has a total of seven S ranks."

"Which includes Viscount Lucius?" Fein looked at James.

"Yes," James stared at Fein inexplicably, wondering why he asks. But he set aside this thought quickly and continued. "This country, or the San Fernando country, is actually the weakest in the alliance, having short of one S rank user because the minimum requirement for a great country is to have five S ranks. Then the Visayas country, which was the second weakest next to San Fernando, with a total of five S rank degu users. That makes the Hose country the strongest in the alliance because of the ten S ranks in their midst."

'Well, it seems this country really needs me for it to become a great country.' Fein suddenly felt a headache with this realization. The number of S ranks in the other countries did not really amaze him. After all, he himself was equivalent to twenty or thirty S ranks. And if he goes all out, he could even battle fifty of them without losing ground. That's how terrifying his strength became after he broke through because now he can fully exert the realm of his swordsmanship!

"This makes me have an impulse to visit the Hosu country." Fein joked for a while.

James smiled when he heard this and asked. "So do you want to hear about the S ranks of the North or other regions?"

"Gladly." Fein smiled back.
