Zaneos did not say anything in return, but that got into his head.

[Do you need my help, Lady Rosalie?]

Inside the Talent Room, Origin asked. The Ai found out that the red-haired lady was one of his Master\'s women.

Rosalie shook her head, "How to sta—" Her voice cut as the option appeared in front of her eyes. She tapped yes, and the surroundings changed into a white room. Everything was white until word after word started to appear. She read one of them which said "Agile". Those words were the Talent, and she might get one of these talents.

The words suddenly disappeared as one of them shone in front of her. The selection was over, and she got her talent.

[Magic Essence I]

[You have obtained a talent, Magic Essence I]

[Calibration is in process….]

[Your Talent advanced to Magic Essence III]

[Magic Essence III]

Rank: B

Bonus Attribute Points per level: +30 Magic Power

Ability:

-Increase mana regeneration by 5%

-Increase magic damage by 7%

——————————

Calibration was the process of adjustment to her current rank. Upon a certain level, some talents could advance just like Tang Shaoyang\'s talent. Mana Essence could advance a few levels, and it was in the process of calibration with Rosalie\'s current level which ended up with Mana Essence III.

It was a decent talent for B-Rank, and it was not just decent, but it was suitable for Rosalie who was an Elementalist. His fire attack would have seven percent damage, and Zaneos reminded her that unless the talent was not suitable for her or below B-Rank, she should not take the gamble to take a new talent.

There was a second chance roll by paying for one million Game Coins. The coin was not the problem, but there was a high chance that the re-roll would be worse than the B-Rank. Zaneos even provided her with the data that eighty percent of people who got B-Rank Talent and re-rolled their talent ended up with a worse talent.

[That\'s a decent talent. Unfortunately, it\'s a B-Rank. If it\'s a higher rank of Magic Essence, you can advance it to Epic Rank or even up to Myth Rank. It\'s still decent though.]

Rosalie thought of accepting the B-Rank Talent, but Origin\'s comment changed her mind. She looked up to the ceiling, "I want a re-roll, Origin!"

Origin did not immediately give its answer. After a brief silence, it replied, [Haven\'t Zaneos explained to you that eighty percent of people who reroll get a worse talent?]

"Then I will take it as my bad luck. You have heard everything, right? The God Ranks are trying to find their way to Earth, to this place. If I want to help him, I want the best talent! I don\'t want a decent talent!" Rosalie made up her mind. If she failed to get a useful talent, she would step back from the battlefield and help with the empire\'s administrative work instead. Helping him to find people to back him up. That was the worst scenario if she failed to get a good talent.

Zaneos told her to ask Origin for the Game Coin if she wanted to reroll, so she did not need to worry about the Game Coin unless the smart Ai refused to help her.

There was a delayed answer from the Ai. It seemed considering the proposal. It was a good talent for sure, especially for her. The Ai wanted to convince her, but it realized there was nothing it could do to convince Rosalie to accept the current talent. It could tell from her eyes.

[Alright. You can do a re-roll. I hope lady luck is on your side.]

The option for re-roll appeared in front of her, and she chose yes with no hesitation. This might be stupid, but she felt like twenty percent to get a better talent was worth a shot. She would take it even if her chance was ten percent. A twenty percent chance was still doable.

Mana Essence III disappeared from her sight, and the re-roll started. This time Rosalie closed her eyes. She was too scared to see if she flopped her chance and ended up with a worse talent. She was nervous as the re-roll started.

Rosalie closed her eyes for a full minute. She knew that the re-roll was over, but she was too scared to open her eyes. There was no regret, but nervousness still got her.

[You have gotten your new talent, Lady Rosalie. You can open your eyes.] Origin reminded her, in case she forgot to open her eyes.

Rosalie could feel the amusement in Ai\'s tone, but she did not really care what Ai felt about her. She did not immediately open her eyes despite knowing she got a new talent. Taking a deep breath for a few seconds, then she released it in one go. Her attempt to calm herself failed as it did nothing. She tried it a few times and realized it did not work at all. She was not calm, nervous, and worried.

The Flame Empress then opened her eyes. Her eyes adjusted to the bright glow in front of her. The words in front of her glowed in golden, totally different than before. Then she got a look at her new talent and a wide grin formed on her face.

She could not help but copy what Tang Shaoyang did when he found something exciting.

[Congratulations, Lady Rosalie!]
