[As soon as your World Order took effect, Luke Fortune and his train crew were targeted by it, being deemed by you as enemies.]
[Not only could they not move and even think during this world of stopped time, but they couldnât even muster any power.]
[However, to your slight surprise, Luke Fortuneâs body slightly twitched, and you felt that the usage right deprivation caused by Royal Confiscation on Lukeâs SSS-rank All Stars Aligned innate talent had very slightly weakened.]
[Its resistance was so minuscule that if it werenât your extreme senses as a Mythril rank powerhouse, you wouldnât have been able to detect such subtle change.]
[Facing such a hint of resistance, you shook your head, expressing the futility of such actions.]
[âUseless! With just a mere SSS-rank innate talent, wanting to influence a Mythril rank powerhouse at Mid Platinum rank? A foolâs dream!â]
[âIt seems the Hint Prompt was right. The All Stars Aligned talent is so powerful that even when the user isnât conscious, as long as calamity fell upon the user, it would react to it and turn its passive luck effect into an active one.â]
[âRather than this innate talent having its own will, itâs more similar to being activated due to the survival instincts of the body. In the end, the innate talent is connected to oneâs soul.â]
[âExperiencing a life-threatening danger would cause the physical body to react to such danger, either by attacking, escaping, or defending. In the same way, some innate talents are also capable of achieving that.â]
[âJust that, the high rank of the All Stars Aligned innate talent allowed it to react even under the influence of stopped time and usage right deprivation.â]
[Thinking of this, you coveted the All Stars Aligned innate talent even more!]
[From the looks of it, it wasnât simply just improving luck but also influenced higher forces like probability and causality itself!]
[It could be described as a power that "forces all variables in existence to converge toward the userâs desired outcome".]
[It wasnât outright reality warping, but a terrifying "everything just lines up" phenomenon.]
[All Stars Aligned had very slightly resisted your Royal Confiscation spirit avatar ability by taking advantage of the probability that "Royal Confiscation wouldnât be able to activate properly".]
[The chance for such an event would be so small, especially with the power rank gap, hence why it couldnât even break free from the restrictions of Royal Confiscation.]
[Because of that, even if Luke were conscious, he wouldnât be able to use his innate talent, as he wouldnât have the right to use it. It was merely the innate talentâs reactive instinct that put up a resistance.]
[The slight surprise you had was mostly due to witnessing that it could indeed put up a resistance, no matter how minuscule, despite the power rank gap between you and Luke.]
[Your hint prompt had already anticipated that Luke and his train crew wouldnât be able to make any waves.]
[In front of a Mythril rank powerhouse like yourself, they were nothing but a bunch of weaklings on the chopping block.]
["Bloodline Magic: Absolute Boundary!"]
["Boundary of Ownership!"]
[Using your bloodline magic, you weakened the ownership Luke had over his innate talent.]
[Although it wasnât to the point that it broke free from his soul and no longer became his, it was already hovering on that boundary.]
[Just one more push would cause Lukeâs ownership over the SSS-rank All Stars Aligned innate talent to disappear, yet you knew that going any further would damage the innate talent.]
[However, you didnât rely on Absolute Boundary for extracting innate talents for that reason. While it wasnât impossible to achieve it with Absolute Boundary, it wasnât as convenient and efficient as using Order Kingâs World Order.]
["Order! For this kingâs captives, I have the right to take whatever they have, including their innate talent!"]
[As soon as your World Order took effect, you used another spirit avatar ability, "Kingâs Decree! Effective immediately!"]
[Using Kingâs Decree, which might be overkill, you ensured that your previous command of possessing the right to take whatever you wanted from your captives was absolutely effective.]
[Although Hint Prompt revealed that World Order alone was enough, you still wanted to be thorough, as this concerned whether you could acquire the SSS-rank All Stars Aligned innate talent or not.]
[With all those preparations complete, Order King forwarded its hand towards Luke, and with a pulling motion, the SSS-rank All Stars Aligned innate talent was extracted and transformed into an innate talent crystal.]
[After taking the innate talent crystal corresponding to the SSS-rank All Stars Aligned talent, you decisively used it on the spot!]
[After several seconds had passed, you felt that All Stars Aligned had been completely integrated into your soul.]
[With its successful integration, youâve successfully acquired it as your third SSS-rank innate talent!]
[âHeh! Now I possess four innate talents, three of which are SSS-rank! I say, who else!?â]
[âIn the real world, even if my Doomsday Life Simulator System isnât added into the equation, the innate talents I possessed are more than enough to stand above most, if not all, of the terrans!â]
[Despite thinking of this, you havenât remained complacent. So far, you were confident that at least within the first apocalypse world update theme, you were invincible.]
[However, you knew that in the subsequent apocalypse themes, they might not be as weak as the Zombie Apocalypse World Update Theme.]
[After all, as the first apocalypse theme, it was undoubtedly an introductory one so that the terrans could adapt to it before being thrown into much more dangerous apocalypse themes.]
[âAnyway, thereâs no problem celebrating achievements like this from time to time. If I just kept treating it as if Iâm still weak and downplaying my achievements despite already being more powerful than the majority, this dilemma would become endless.â]
[âAfter all, even I havenât known of the power rank that truly is the peak of the real world Iâm in. At least, Iâm far from even being worthy of knowing more about The One and his purpose for the Apocalypse World Update Era.â]
[âAlthough that world announcement announcer had claimed that itâs for the sake of shedding off imperfections and becoming the perfect creations that The One intended the humans to be, who knows if that truly is the case?â]
[Thinking of this, you regained your composure and decided to deal with it when the time came.]
[No matter what, as long as you can continue becoming stronger using your Doomsday Life Simulator System, youâll eventually reach the power level needed to deal with those problems.]
[âIf that deranged world announcement announcer dared to deliver the world announcement again instead of the World Will, Iâll see if I can use Hint Prompt on the world announcements to know more about him and the intentions of him and The One.â]
[While you held such thoughts, you werenât certain if the Gold-grade Hint Prompt was enough to peer through their secrets.]
[If there was a way to upgrade your simulation talents, you undoubtedly wanted to upgrade Hint Prompt, as it had assisted you a lot in this simulation.]
[In terms of importance, it was only second to Unlimited Food Creation (Gold). However, so far, you havenât encountered a consumable item that couldnât be replicated by Unlimited Food Creation.]
[So, if itâs for the sake of knowing more secrets about that deranged announcer and The One, youâll prioritize Hint Prompt over Unlimited Food Creation.]
[After you dealt with Luke and acquired his All Stars Aligned innate talent for yourself, Jade soon lifted the time stop.]
[After the time stop was lifted, the four trains other than Lukeâs were dismantled in an instant. All of the Train Conductors and their train crews in those respective trains were eliminated by Jade, and whatever they had in value was already taken by her.]
[Perhaps, the only items she hasnât looted from them were those stored in their item inventories. Yet, it wasnât a problem to you and her, since beforehand, you had already informed Jade that none of them possessed an item worth taking.]
[Their train coins and train cores were merely icing on the cake. The only purpose of this multiplayer-type station exploration was to target Luke and extract his innate talent.]
[As for the rest, you couldnât care less about them. It was only due to adhering to your principles of "not wanting to waste items that still had value" that you let Jade plunder them.]
["Darling, Iâll leave that gal to you. You forgot to extract her innate talent."]
[You heard Jadeâs words and saw her kill those miscellaneous train crewmates of Lukeâs Train Crew within skipped time, leaving behind Lukeâs Train Conductor Duo.]
[With Lukeâs death, the trainâs ownership was naturally transferred to the only living Train Conductor in their train crew.]
[Looking at Lukeâs Train Conductor Duo, you couldnât help but complain, "I have to admit, that guy truly is lucky. Not only is his Train Conductor Duo his crush, but even his crush had also awakened an SS-rank innate talent due to his influence."]
