All My Professions Have Divine-Level Talents Chapter 246 - 156: A Scholar’s Talent?

Lu Cang held out the black tea, and a nearby maid holding a tray took it from him.

...

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK—

There was a knock on the mansion’s door.

Lu Cang extended his Perception outward.

A servant from the mansion soon ca to report to him.

"Lord Lu Cang, a little girl is here to see you. She says she’s a friend of yours, and her na is Yuna."

’She really ca. I invited her over yesterday.’

’But when I scanned the area with my Perception, I didn’t see her parents. Did she really co alone?’

’Her parents are surprisingly trusting.’

In a flash of light, Lu Cang went downstairs to greet her personally.

Seeing Lu Cang, Yuna’s eyes lit up. "Lu Cang, where’s the Demon corpse you said you’d show ?"

Lu Cang led her to the basent. She really was a curious little girl.

The two of them entered the basent.

Lu Cang closed the basent door, applied a Seal, and locked it tight.

’There are too many secrets in this basent. I can’t let anyone else find out about them.’

"Yuna, we have an agreent."

"The secrets here are known only to you and ."

"You can’t tell anyone else."

Lu Cang said seriously.

Yuna nodded with equal solemnity.

Despite his words, Lu Cang didn’t actually plan on showing Yuna too much.

The things he couldn’t let her see were already walled off in a separate section of the basent.

Lu Cang extended a single hand.

WHOOSH!

A massive leaf appeared on the basent floor.

It was a piece of the corpse from the Subrged Land Level Flower Demon that Chi Cheng had slain.

Yuna’s eyes went wide at the sight of the corpse.

She leaped forward curiously, stroking the patterns on the plant’s body.

"Such beautiful veins! It’s just like the books described."

Lu Cang walked over to her, curious. "Do these veins have a special aning?"

"These are the special markings of a Tier Six Plant Elent Demon. They absorb life essence as nutrients through these veins. The cross-section is so clear! See? This is a fluid tube. The liquid in their bodies circulates through this channel. This kind of Demon is both a plant and a Demon. They have strong regenerative abilities, and their weaknesses are extrely hard to find..."

Yuna suddenly beca much more talkative.

She held the cross-section of the Flower Demon and spoke with great enthusiasm, her expression and voice filled with excitent.

"Did you know? The most direct way to find a Demon’s weakness is to look for it based on its classification. Every Demon has a classification, and the essential weaknesses that sustain their lives also follow basic principles..."

"Actually, for this Flower Demon, you don’t necessarily have to slice it wide open. If you can split the corolla on its head and pull out a long, white sinew, it will die instantly."

"If it’s not white, then it’s probably yellow... But since it has Soul Elent characteristics, it should be white."

"That long sinew is called the Life Line. It’s the line where the soul converges for plants of the Soul, Flower, Plant, and Vine-leaf types. Once you pull it out, it will lose consciousness completely and, naturally, won’t be able to regenerate anymore."

It was rare to hear Yuna say so much all at once.

Previously, he would ask a few questions, and she would answer them.

Or they would trade remarks back and forth...

He’d never seen her talk so ceaselessly.

"Yuna, what about a creature like this one?"

With a thought from Lu Cang, the Void split open.

He summoned a Humming Hunter.

Yuna’s eyes seed to glow. She imdiately dropped the vine she’d been holding so fondly. "A Void Creature!"

"You summoned this? How can you summon Void Creatures?"

"Such beautiful Void-crystal wings..."

...

Yuna’s curiosity about the world surpassed even Lu Cang’s.

For the first ti, Lu Cang had soone with whom he could share all the strange things he had encountered.

This was completely different from his experience with Iz.

Iz was fanatical about the field of Magic, but outside of it, he often seed bored.

Unless sothing could be used for Magic, he would beco interested again.

But Lu Cang, on the other hand, was interested in the entire world.

A strange world, an unfamiliar sky and land...

But his primary thod of acquiring knowledge had been reading books to understand this world on his own.

At first, it was fine; the unknowns were all fundantal.

But as his knowledge deepened, he began to feel a unique sense of loneliness.

’It just felt... odd. Perhaps it was because they weren’t particularly surprised by what I’d seen and heard?’

But now, Lu Cang felt a sense of vitality from Yuna.

Yuna was a kindred spirit who shared his interests.

"You know about the Void?"

"Mhm, my parents told about it."

"Iz wouldn’t even let near any knowledge about the Void at first. Your parents actually told you about it?"

"Mhm... they only told bits and pieces."

"The Void is a higher dinsion than our world. My mom said that the Void was once a very prosperous world, but after a world-ending catastrophe, the Void fell. It beca a place of ruin and nothingness..."

...

Yuna had arrived during the day, and by the ti she left, it was late at night.

"Lu Cang, I’ll co see you again tomorrow!"

"You have to show your Ritual!"

Lu Cang smiled and waved goodbye.

’Sigh. I was planning to spend the afternoon in the Forbidden Book Library.’

’I didn’t expect to end up talking with Yuna all day.’

Still, he’d gained a lot of knowledge about Demons. The longer they talked, the more Lu Cang felt his mind connecting with Yuna’s.

It seed Scholars possessed a kind of Knowledge Resonance.

While talking with Yuna, he could feel her knowledge transferring into his mind.

It wasn’t just Demonology, but Oceanography, Stellar Science, Moon Phase Science, and even Mathematics... Lu Cang felt he’d gained so new insights into all of them.

’I wonder what Talent Yuna has awakened.’

’Could it be Knowledge Resonance?’

’If so, this could make things much more efficient.’

As Lu Cang was thinking this, he casually took a book from his Storage Space titled *On the Relationship between Destiny Developnt Nodes and Life as a Whole*.

He was about to open it and continue reading where he had left off.

But the mont he held the book, he felt the knowledge within it flow into his mind like a gentle stream.

’Is this a Scholar’s specialization?’

’It must be the Scholar’s Specialization - Knowledge Extraction.’

Lu Cang already knew a fair bit about the traits and specializations of the common Professions in this world, at least for the first few Levels.

This ability to extract knowledge directly from a book had to co from the Scholar Profession.

’I’ll ask Yuna in person tomorrow... what exactly her awakened Talent is.’

’I wonder if she’ll be willing to tell , given our current relationship.’

’If I can borrow the Scholar’s learning abilities from Yuna, then there’s really no need for to take up the Scholar Profession for now.’

’I can save that multi-class slot for another, more useful Profession.’

’Like... Prophet.’
