I Can Upgrade My Talent In Everything

Chapter 215 Useless Dragon



'Manipulating clouds sounds tasteless.' Fein redirected his gaze to the majestic dragon that appeared on Michael's shoulder. 'What is its name again? Ranade?'

After a few moments, Michael finally manage to regain his composure. "Cough, your name is Ranade, right? Well, be prepared to intercept an attack that may come at any moment, then."

Ranade the white dragon opened his mouth and said, "As you wish, my lord. I would gladly fulfill your first order to the best of my ability." his golden eyes flickered and his voice contained a hint of pride.

For him, in this puny realm, there's no attack that he couldn't stop. After all, he came from the domain of the dragon. And dragons were known for their pride. In his eyes, he can stop any attack with his immense strength.

"Then from now on, you will be my companion." Michael smiled and felt satisfied with the confidence of the white dragon.

Just like that, the white dragon just closed his eyes, waiting for the attack that might arrive without worry.

WHIZZZZZ!

The sound of air being torn apart resounded as a bright golden light emerged from the shadows. When the dragon saw this, his that was full of arrogance turned into a slit. He stared at the golden arrow nervously and swallowed. 'Why is there an ability that can affect the law in this lower realm!?'

After he knew just how rare abilities that could affect the laws are. Even in a higher realm, they treat such things as a myth. Because even one of the strongest dragons 'Illiad' the Dragon of Destruction, doesn't possess the ability that can affect the laws of the Universe!

'Even Illiad only possessed five mythical abilities. It seems we underestimated the lower realm.' Ranade's arrogant face turned dignified. Then, he looks at Michael awkwardly and says. "Master, I can't stop that ability because it already involves laws."

Hearing this, Michael became disappointed. But he just sighed and smiled. "Don't worry about it. I understand... Well, can you stall it for a few minutes so I can buy time?"

Ranade just shook his head in response.

Michael took a deep breath and changed his order into an easy one. "How about using your clouds to widen the distance between us and the attack?"

"Sorry, master, it would be futile. I can see that the golden arrow coming towards you involves the law space. So it would be futile in the end." Ranade wants to cover his face in shame for disappointing his master.

'Shit! Aren't you just useless then!?' Michael yelled in his mind. Then he just sighed and looked at the golden arrow helplessly. Now, He can only accept that he doesn't have the means to escape the golden arrow. 'It won't hurt too much, right? Should I just use my cloud counter to reflect the attack? Hmmm, it won't probably work because the golden arrow is a causal. Well, let's just try it then and see.' Michael used his cloud counter on the golden arrow, but as he expected it didn't work as it won't even activate. He guessed that because the golden arrow works like cause and effect. An ability that can't be countered or is simply inevitable.

Just like that, the golden arrow arrived in front of him. He closed his eyes and prepared for the pain.

BOOM!

The dust scattered due to the strong impact of the attack. Fein and his sister looked at the scene expressionlessly, while Gregory had a worried face as he watched the scene play in his eyes.

A few moments passed. When the dust cleared. Michael stood with his eyes and clothes in the middle position where the golden arrow landed.

Fey could see that Michael had only received a few scratches, and her golden arrow only messed up his long hair. But besides that, there's nothing else. Although she already expected that her attack won't do much damage to an A-rank, she still felt at loss seeing the result.

"Huh? That's it?" Michael opened his eyes in a daze. 'Did the golden arrow really hit me?' He scanned the surrounding with doubt.

When he saw the destruction in the environment, his doubt was replaced with understanding. 'It seems, the causal ability's effect is only the absolute. And Fey's golden arrow only gave her attack a never-miss effect, but it didn't enhance the damage a single bit. 'Damn, if that's the case. I just made a fuss for nothing?'

Ranade also looked at his master with reverence. He glanced at his master, who looks unscathed. 'My new master was this strong!? He can resist ability that can affect the laws!?'

Fein noticed the minute changes in the expression of the white dragon. He couldn't help but become speechless. 'It seems someone had misunderstood something,' he sighed.

Gregory, beside Fein, became confused when he saw this. "That's it??"

"Causal abilities are called absolute, not because of their power. But because their effect would happen no matter what. For example, if the ability can kill a person in one hit. It would kill the target in one hit and it would be inevitable. My sister's causal ability effect is a 100% hit rate. Her attack would never miss. But the damage would still depend on her strength, so her golden arrow has only the power of C-rank." Fein expressed his thought after he saw Gregory's skepticism.

"Understood." Gregory paused for a moment. Then he sighed, "It seems even at my age I don't understand some things. A person indeed knows something that other people don't. Even a fool knows something a knowledgeable person doesn't"

"Yeah, that's why we can always learn something new by initiating a conversation with anyone. Even those who seem ignorant can offer knowledge that other people didn't know." Fein very much agreed with his captain.

...

Michael walked at Fey, who looked downcast. "Don't be disappointed. If the one receives it was B-rank, the battle would end instantly. Your golden arrow can be threatening to them. I'm only unscathed because my armor can reduce damage, and my realm was two times higher than you." He smiled while trying to comfort his friend's sister.

Fey smiled a little at Michael's attempt to cheer her. 'My brother's friends are really good people.'
