Talents... the main reason that distinguishes a person's talent or rank perhaps is their unique talents.
[AN: um I know it's a bit complicated here since talent is like a talent , while the second talent means his unique ability].
Talent, this is the ability bestowed upon a person the moment they were born, not only is this ability necessary for their growth in the future, but it also defines the path which they will follow, for example a person with the Flare mage talent is known to become a mage and not a swordsman, or a person with the talent sword king, such individual cannot go along and become a mage.
Each talent will also be in one way or another superior to each other, each talent gives it's user a specific ability, this includes their stats in strength and mana, activation of the talent will give it's user a tremendous boost.
Thus, this was what layed the groundwork for adventurers, not only adventurers but also the place of every human in the continent. Both on terms of Talent, hierarchy, wealth, influence and strength.

Meanwhile, Julian charged forward, his A rank talent, Fearless Warrior, coursing through him. His confidence surged, and his strength and speed increased, making him a formidable force on the battlefield. He fought with reckless abandon, his sword slicing through the goblins with ease, and his fearlessness seemed to intimidate the goblins, causing them to stumble backward in fear.
Seeing her brother in battle, Lily couldn't help but support him. As Lily activated her unique talent, Lightning Archer, her eyes transformed, taking on an uncanny resemblance to those of an eagle. Her irises turned a piercing yellow, with vertical pupils that seemed to gleam like sharp gold in the dim light of the cave. Her eyes became incredibly sharp, allowing her to see even the smallest details from a distance.
Her vision expanded, and she could perceive the world around her with perfect clarity, tracking the movements of the goblins with ease. She could see the tension in their muscles, the twitch of their fingers on their bows, and the way they shifted their weight before attacking..
With her newfound visual acuity, Lily's hands moved with precision, her fingers dancing across the strings of her bow as she fired arrow after arrow with deadly accuracy. Her aim was true, and each shot found its mark, striking down goblin after goblin with unerring precision.
She could tell the urgency in Lylia's voice, that only means that they had to take care of this quickly and leave the cave as soon as possible, this was all Julian's fault in the first place, his rash behavior led them to this situation.
Lena's movements were a whirlwind of speed and agility, her sword flashing in the dim light of the cave as she darted between the goblin fighters. She focused on taking out the archers, her blade slicing through their crude defenses with ease. However, despite her impressive speed and skill, Lena's breathing was getting shallower, and her movements were starting to slow.
Her mana reserves were dwindling, and she knew she couldn't keep this up for much longer. She had been using her agility and quick reflexes to dodge the goblin's attacks, but it was taking a toll on her energy levels. Lena's eyes flicked towards Leon, she had to finish this up quickly and get out of here, or else her brother will be in danger .
The goblins were relentless, and Lena knew she couldn't hold out for much longer. She gritted her teeth, determination burning within her, but she knew she couldn't keep this up alone.
Although her mana and stamina were depleting, she still wanted to end this battle,
With a burst of determination, Lena channeled the last remnants of her mana
Silford Sword Craft: " Celestial Bolt." The air around her seemed to crackle with electricity as she spoke the words, and for a brief moment, it seemed like time itself slowed down.
In the blink of an eye, Lena appeared behind the goblin archers, her sword flashing with a brilliant blue light. A bolt of electricity shot out from her blade, striking the archers with incredible force. The goblins let out a collective shriek as they were electrocuted, their bodies convulsing wildly before crumpling to the ground, lifeless.
The other goblins were caught off guard, momentarily stunned by the sudden disappearance of their archers. Lena stood amidst them, her sword still crackling with electricity, her chest heaving with exhaustion. She had gambled her last bit of mana on that attack, and it had paid off, but she knew she was now completely drained.
Just as Lena's eyes began to blur and her legs buckled, Leon swiftly stepped forward and caught her in his arms, holding her securely. "Whoa, easy, sis," he said, his voice calm and soothing. "I've got you."
Lena's head lolled against his shoulder, her body limp with exhaustion. Leon adjusted his grip, cradling her in his arms as if she weighed nothing. For a moment, he just held her there, his expression softening with concern.
The battle seemed to fade into the background as Leon focused on his sister's well-being. He gently brushed a strand of hair out of her face, his movements tender. "You're okay, Lena. I'll take care of this," he whispered, his voice barely audible over the sound of the goblins' dying gasps.
The massive goblin, its body towering over Leon's, had been charging towards them with a vicious snarl. But before it could even react, Leon's eyes turned icy cold, and a faint blue glow emanated from his gaze.
In the blink of an eye, an ice sword materialized in front of him, its blade shimmering with a frosty light. With a swift and economical motion, the sword stabbed forward, piercing the goblin's forehead with deadly precision. The goblin's eyes froze in a look of shock, and its massive body crumpled to the ground, lifeless.
The ice sword vanished as suddenly as it appeared, leaving no sign of the swift and deadly strike except for the goblin's corpse. Leon's gaze lingered on the goblin for a moment before he turned his attention back to Lena, his expression softening once more as he cradled her in his arms.
...
"Hoh, so he finally decided to take action" Kirka Cackled.
'This human is truly interesting' he thought.
Just then Leon's gaze met this, Kirka felt a shiver run down his spines. They exchanged a silent glance, and in that instant The Goblin king felt fear, true fear.
"Who...Who is this human" .
