[Looking at Lukeâs crush, you have to admit that Luke was truly lucky. Not only was his crush beautiful and good-natured, comparable to Jade when she was a normal human, but even her innate talent compensated for what he lacked.]
[Luke had the same problem as Leigh at the starting point of their talent. It was the lack of combat means since their innate talents leaned towards auxiliary usage.]
[Luke had only managed to compensate for his lack of combat means when he became a Gold rank Train Conductor. But before he became one, he had relied on his crush for attack and defense.]
[Lukeâs crush would only have awakened an S-rank innate talent at most, according to the hint prompt. It was due to Lukeâs innate talent that her innate talent awakening was influenced into awakening not only an SS-rank innate talent, but also an innate talent suited for combat and defense.]
[The innate talent she possessed was the SS-rank Invisible Force. It allowed her to generate and manipulate an invisible force.]
[In some ways, the application of such innate talent worked similarly to the S-rank Psychic innate talentâs ability to use telekinesis or psychokinesis.]
[They were both invisible forces, but the difference was that telekinesis was only invisible due to it being created from the mind.]
[Not to mention, S-rank Psychic innate talent was versatile as it wasnât limited to just telekinesis, but also mind reading and even hypnosis.]
[But in terms of the Psychicâs telekinesis vs SS-rank Invisible Force, the latter was way superior. After all, telekinesis was still visible to those who also possessed mind-related abilities.]
[As for the SS-rank Invisible Force innate talent that specialized in generating and manipulating invisible force, it naturally couldnât be seen by most methods.]
[Unfortunately, while the "invisibility" aspect of Invisible Force was approaching the level of a rule-based ability, it wasnât truly one yet. For it to be qualified as one, it must reach SSS-rank.]
[âInvisible Force can be used to deal with weaker and even some strong enemies that donât possess any excellent perception abilities. It can be created into any shape and form, allowing it to achieve the purpose of both offense and defense.â]
[âIf I can raise this into an SSS-rank innate talent, it will prove to be a useful ability for me. I donât need the mind-reading capabilities of Psychic since I have Hint Prompt, so I can have this Invisible Force innate talent and give the Psychic innate talent to Jade instead.â]
[You didnât plan to take both since in some ways, their usage would overlap.]
[Although the versatility of S-rank Psychic was great, the shortcomings of something versatile were that it couldnât deal with those that were specialized, at least in that specific field.]
[In terms of wielding invisible force, telekinesis was way weaker than Invisible Force.]
[If it were to control someoneâs mind, you possessed magic spells capable of achieving that. Even Absolute Boundary could achieve that as long as you manipulate the boundary related to the mind.]
[âI can make use of Invisible Force to force someone to kneel, thereby being able to make use of that achievement to reduce the energy cost when using World Order. Moreover, it can also be used for sneak attacks.â]
[You have to admit, Luke was truly a good person. His life was valuable to you, and even after his death, he still didnât forget to give you such a gift.]
[You were truly touched!]
["Your innate talent will become mine!"]
[Using the World Order that you havenât lifted yet, you didnât hesitate to extract the SS-rank Invisible Force innate talent from Lukeâs crush.]
[After acquiring the SS-rank Invisible Force innate talent crystal, you didnât hesitate to use it.]
[After you deprived her of her innate talent, Lukeâs crush, who you didnât bother to remember the name of, immediately pleaded, "Donât kiâ"]
[Before she could finish her words, an invisible force acted upon her body, crushing her body and crumpling it into a ball.]
[Her blood and mangled flesh were compressed into a sphere, thereby preventing her death from splashing blood and flesh on you.]
["Although, ironically, she got killed using her own innate talent, but I have to admit. Invisible Force is truly useful for killing without being dirtied by the blood and flesh of oneâs enemies."]
[With just one look, your enemies, no matter how far they were, as long as they were within your perception range, theyâd undoubtedly die.]
[Hearing your words, Jade smiled, "Iâm glad that darling has found her innate talent useful. With both Luke and his crushâs innate talents already acquired by us, this station exploration isnât in vain."]
[After you had killed Lukeâs crush, Jade had already dismantled Luke and his crushâs train and placed the materials and train core she obtained into her item inventory.]
[You nodded, "Indeed. Even the SS-rank Invisible Force innate talent is useful to me. Itâs straightforward and simple, but itâs powerful."]
["I can even use my multiplication fairy fruit ability to amplify the invisible force generated by this innate talent."]
[After giving Jade a response, you took out the S-rank Psychic innate talent crystal from your system inventory and tossed it to Jade.]
[After Jade received it, you explained, "Itâs for you. According to my plans, I would have upgraded that to SSS-rank or even a rank above it when we obtain the means to do so."]
["Afterwards, Iâll make use of it since itâs still an excellent innate talent. However, Lukeâs crush possessed the SS-rank Invisible Force innate talent, and I find it more suitable to me compared to S-rank Psychic."]
["You can awaken the S-rank Psychic innate talent using that crystal now, or wait until we possess the means of upgrading innate talent."]
[In response to your words, Jade immediately used the S-rank Psychic innate talent, allowing her to possess psychic-related abilities like telekinesis, telepathy, hypnosis, mental illusions, and many more.]
[Undoubtedly, her answer was to use it immediately. Even if she used it now, there wouldnât be that much difference in upgrading it later.]
[In fact, using it now could at least allow Jade to make use of the psychic powers granted by the Psychic innate talent.]
[After Jade acquired the S-rank Psychic innate talent, she played with it for a while until you felt some mental waves wanting to peer through your thoughts.]
[However, it was easily blocked by your SS-rank Mental Fortification innate talent.]
[In response to this, Jade sighed, "Even after I used telepathy to read your mind, S-rank Psychic innate talent isnât enough. After all, we have the same Spirit attribute."]
[You didnât mind Jadeâs usage of telepathy on you since you trusted her. At least, Hint Prompt would never lie, and Jade undoubtedly loves you and was loyal to you.]
[At most, youâll only have to worry if she ever used it to prank you, since as long as such actions werenât malicious, then it wouldnât be enough to trigger Hint Prompt to activate on its own.]
[But even so, you werenât naive and too trusting.]
[You mostly gave it to her since you trusted Jade more than the rest of your train crewmates. Aside from that, you also possessed the SS-rank Mental Fortification innate talent.]
[So, as a mere S-rank innate talent, it naturally couldnât bypass the mental barriers set up by Mental Fortification, especially when Jade and you possessed the same Spirit attribute grade.]
[Moreover, even if it were the same innate talent rank, the Psychic innate talent could naturally not bypass the defenses of Mental Fortification, which specializes in mental defenses.]
[Although you indeed love Jade and trusted her, you werenât a fool who was blinded by love. After all, people change, and even you admitted that the "you" of now was no longer the same as before you experienced these Doomsday Life Simulations.]
[Because of the power you possessed as well as the actions youâve done in the Doomsday Life Simulation, youâve become more detached from the lives of others who werenât related to you in any way.]
[Although you claimed to only cause slaughter and genocide in the Doomsday Life Simulation as it was irreversible, even you werenât certain if you could uphold such principles in the real world.]
[At least, if it was in the real world, you could guarantee that as long as it wasnât a matter of interests, you werenât bored enough to cause mass slaughter.]
[Your bottom line was mostly wanting to protect yourself and those dear to you. As for those who were strangers to you, you didnât even know their name, so you couldnât be bothered with them.]
[As long as they didnât offend you or hinder your interests, you wouldnât go out of your way to kill or enslave them.]
["Darling, whatâs the matter? Even without being able to see through your thoughts with telepathy, I can see that you have something that has been bothering your mind."]
[Feeling Jadeâs embrace and hearing her words, you didnât hide it from her. "Iâve been wondering. With all the slaughter and plunder Iâve done since becoming a Train Conductor, have I already lost my âhumanityâ?"]
