Ever since he and his father went to the public talent stone to check his talent, he had been humiliated for being different.
That the talent stone could not detect his talent was interpreted that he has no talent...it was logical, yes.
If he had a talent, then why can't the stone detect it...since they could not come up with any other reason, it's logical to say that he has no talent.
Ever since that day, Leo dreaded going out like how a cat dreads water. He would only go out when there is no other way to do whatsoever he wanted to do.
And the feeling of wanting the ground to open and swallow him is what he feels every time he was mocked.
What made his situation, even worse was that he was the first in history to have no talent... 'Everyone haves a talent' is a common belief. What matters is the rank of your talent.
When checking talent no one worries about having a talent or not having a talent, what they worry about is the rank or importance of their talent.
But ever since Leo's 'No-Talent' incident, many people started worrying whether they would end up like him.
But no such thing happened, so Leo's name became an object of ridicule and caricature. His name spread from town to town, village to village, county to county, and even From this empire to another empire in this continent.
What made it spread even more quickly was the fact that such a thing has never happened.
However, Leo maintained a strong front when mocked, he made sure not to give in to their mockery, and he made sure not to show them his weakness no matter what. So, it didn't take long for him to get used to it, being mocked no longer affected him, and all he would feel this time was nothing.
This made him unapproachable and also had a huge effect on him when he searches for odd jobs.
Despite all odds, never once did he give up, He accepted his fate, the fate of a 'No-Talent', a fate to be ridiculed and mocked all his life.
He later met the system and it changed everything for him, It changed his fate, Changed his destiny, it changed everything related to him, now his current path is different from what the 'No-Talent' Leo would pass through. He and his past self are no longer related.
But little did he know that everything had been planned millions of years ago. When he was a God! Little did he know that he had planned for all this to happen millions of years ago.
little did he know that he was someone else entirely, not the Leo that everyone knows, little did he know that he was transmigrated from a primitive world called 'Earth', and instead of choosing his Earthen Memories, he choose the memories of the real owner of this body.
Why? Because he dislikes his memories, but he is sure to want to know more as time passes by when the crystal would have revealed to him more about his past and present memories, and secrets he didn't know.
As a result of losing his Earthen Memories, he had affection towards all those the real owner of this body has affection for and hatred for all those the owner of this body hates would stop at nothing to fulfill all the wishes of the owner of this body, even if it costs him his life.
The time of transmigration is unknown, as that day had mixed well with his other days.
So now he was sure that with the System by his side things would become even easier for him.
But he will end up making Enemies, Much larger than the enemies he already has.
After being ridiculed for such a long time, it gives Leo joy upon the discovery of him not being 'No Talent'.

The Crystal is the physical form of the System.
And sorry for the inconvenience, but the game part of this novel might end up not starting early.

Back to his current situation.
'System, if am the only one that uses Mana in this world, then that means this world is not meant for Mana, is it true?' Leo immediately asked what first came to his head without wasting much time.
'Yes, you're right, But you're unique, you're a thief! and so, therefore you can adapt to any form of energy, stealing it and naturally converting it to pure Mana, all this is the function of your physique, The Super Thief Physique. You can take as many affinities, Talents, abilities, and also as many skills as you want without any side effects. That's what makes it powerful, if you take this seriously you will be able to rise to the very top of this world within a few years...'
Leo rolled his eyes and let the Crystal/System continue its ranting, he had heard this many times already and was already starting to get sick from hearing almost the same sentence over and over again.
But from what he is seeing it did not look like it was going to stop anytime soon, it was like it was waiting for even the slightest chance to tell him the function of the system.
Nevertheless, as much as the system has never ceased to irritate him, its benefits Are also many.
And from what he was seeing, the system took pride in all the things it was capable of doing.
But he would not try to hurt that pride anytime soon, though he did not know why it was calling him master...he was sure that both of them were connected somehow.
'So, what should I do?' Leo asked him, in an attempt to wake him from his ocean of thought.
'...'
The Crystal immediately drifted out from its thought of the future, when its host would have been almighty, would be chasing and killing gods, When the name 'Super Thief' would be feared throughout this universe.
He had wanted to explain things quickly so that he would get done with this and watch Leo finish those bosses, but he could not help but drift off at the thought of the future.
'First, calm your mind, think of nothing, try to feel your body try to feel the energies within you!' The crystal started mysteriously.
Sitting down in a lotus position, cross-legged, he tried to calm his heart and mind, he tried to remove all kinds of emotions that were lurking within him, From anxiety To curiosity...he tried to remove them all. When he was sure that he was in the best possible state he then tried to feel his body.
