I Can Upgrade My Talent In Everything

After Fein listened to James about the numbers of S ranks in each region, his understanding of the balance of power on the continent was further enriched.

Though, James only knows the specific detail of the North because their mission forced them to say in the North for years. As for the other regions such as East, West, or even the mysterious Central Plains... He only knew the total number, but not the specific number of the countries.

For example, East has thirty-five S rank degu users, three more than their South. But James didn't know the distribution or the specific number of S ranks each country possessed in the East.

The North, on the other hand, had forty-seven S rank degu users in total! They had already surpassed the number of S ranks the Central Plains had. Unfortunately, it was divided into two factions because of internal conflict. The Mountain Valley Great Alliance has a total of twelve S ranks, while the Light Alliance had twenty-two. And they are at war with each other. The one who wins would be the one that will rule the North. It's a fucking war for Hegemony!

Fein now had a good understanding of the balance of power in the Northern Region, which might help him in the future. After all, who knows when the four regions would wage a war on each other? Fein believes that 'Know your capability, understand the enemy, and plan... That way, you would win hundreds of battles.

The Mountain Valley Great Alliance makes up of Seven countries combined which have only one great country. Obviously, the head of the alliance is the Reinsurance great country which has the largest number of S-rank degu users. Followed by Luneta country, the second strongest in the alliance which has two S ranks, short of three S ranks to become a great country. Then there's the North Bound that possessed one S rank, short of four S ranks, to also become a great country.

Followed by Softeria, which has one S rank degu user, and Meder, which also has one S rank same as Softeria and North Bond. Obviously, the S ranks in these respective counties are the leaders. Only the Reinsurance great country has a leader that isn't an S rank, which was quite ironic in Fein's opinion.

Lastly, Kwintad and Grefilad countries, are the weakest in the alliance because they didn't have S-rank degu users!

Opposite them, was the Light Alliance, which was pretty strong! They had an astonishing twenty-two S rank degu users. They are simply comparable to one region! With strength also comes a great appetite. The Mountain Great Alliance is quite peaceful, but the Light Alliance simply harassed them and gave them no choice but to fight!

The Light Alliance wants to become the overlord of the entire Northern Region by means of violence! Fortunately, Mountain Great Alliance has stronger overall military might. Yeah, they are at disadvantage in terms of upper-rank fighters. But at least they have a greater number of B ranks and A ranks than the Light Alliance, which is also the reason why they can hold off the fangs of the Light Alliance. And they have a natural terrain good for defense because they are located in the mountain.

After years of fighting, the two made an irreconcilable conflict as a lot of their loved ones died. Only by one of them perishing would this end. War is cruel... There's no true winner when it comes to war. The ones that get affected the most are the soldiers that died meaninglessly and the civilians. The only ones who gain something are the top figures that control the alliance.

As for why the S ranks aren't moving... Well, they exhaust each other first. On the contrary, S rank degu users were reluctant to fight in the same realm as them. After all, the battle of S rank isn't a joke. With their strength, they can live beautiful life. They have wealth, women, status, and influence. Why must they risk their life?

That's why, unless an S rank doesn't interfere in war... No one was willing to move, and no one really wants to light the gunpowder. Because once an S rank interferes in war. It would be the prelude to the true war, which is mainly composed of S.

S ranks are the ones that truly decide the outcome of the war. Even with the number of S ranks in the Light Alliance, they still didn't dare to start the true fight. After all, it was certain that once that started, some of them would still die. And who knew what would happen when the S ranks of Mountain Alliance get cornered? S ranks that are cornered and lost their fear are scary. They might decide to die with them and launch a desperate attack. This is the risk the S ranks of the Light Alliance didn't want to take.

It's also the reason that years have passed, but the war was still going on. But there's always an end to everything. The war of S ranks would inevitably come, which would bring the Ragnarok or ruin of each.

That's why, for Fein, the soldiers only died meaninglessly. Each side only consumes the other without a definite cause, but greed. It didn't matter how many battles A ranks or B ranks soldiers won for their country. Because the battle of S ranks would ultimately decide the winner.

'Really pitiful...' Fein shook his head.

This is also the reason why he wants to become stronger. He doesn't want to become like those soldiers that sacrificed their life meaninglessly. Though, he still respects them for their bravery and love for their country.

The soldiers are the real heroes that work behind the scenes to main the peace the general people enjoy. For this, he has his respect. But he still doesn't want to become like them.

Thinking of this, his resolve in his path becomes even firmer. After all, the South wasn't any different from the North.
