Wrath noticed that he was in a good mood, so it said, "I'll take it that his ability was fantastic."
Kelvin nodded. "It was."
Kelvin was indeed happy at acquiring an alpha ability that can match omega abilities in raw power.
Wrath asked impatiently, "Are you going to tell me about it or do I have to beg?"
Kelvin laughed. Then he decided not to keep Wrath in suspense any longer. He quickly explained the basics of the ability to the shadow spirit.
Wrath had a lot to say about the ability. It started by correcting him. It said, "I don't think the conversion of force is limited to speed and strength of the body. It might be possible to convert it into something else, like a forcefield on the body or for telekinesis. It might even improve abilities like invulnerability, super strength, super speed, and many more."
Kelvin shrugged and said, "I guess we will find out when I fuse other abilities with it in the future. It will definitely enhance them then."
Wrath was excited about the prospect. It said, "I can't wait to see what it can become. You can fuse it with other abilities that convert the force to stamina so that you won't get tired. Something like invincibility will go a long way for that. If you add invulnerability, your limit might become unlimited. You will be unstoppable."
Kelvin rolled his eyes at it. "You have outdone yourself this time around. You are calling out omega abilities that I can't acquire instead of the usual alpha abilities that I can't acquire."
"I can't help it. I am just so excited to see what it can become in the future. This guy, Zain, is clearly unranked and hadn't acquired the other abilities to complete the set, but he could already defeat F-ranks and E-ranks. He might even be able to tussel with the D ranks with his granite body and great strength. If not for his weaker body and inability to heal, you would be the dead one."
Kelvin asked with a smile, "I defeated him. Doesn't that mean that I could tussel with D-rank before?"
Wrath didn't agree, "No. You could only take a beating from the D-rank at best. Your defense and endurance were high enough to take a lot of beating, and you could easily heal from the damage due to your shapeshifter ability."
"Your might be able to survive an encounter with D-rank supers and defeat them by utilizing their weakness, but it is only now that you can match E-rank supers in strength. I reckon that you should be able to go further than that with the combination of Juggernaut's Heart and Steel Physique."
Kelvin nodded in agreement. F-rank supers have at least 1,000 total power ratings. This is something that only supers who have decided to advance to the professional league or exceptional amateurs can get.
1,000 destiny is a lot of power, but that doesn't mean F rank will always be able to defeat unranked supers. This is mainly because that 1,000 total destiny will be distributed among the many stats. Then there is the uncertain factor of abilities.
His steel physique is a beta ability with a limit to its usefulness, but it is enough to make him capable of taking hits from more powerful foes.
Even without it, he could already defeat F-rank supers. The first person he killed after awakening his ability was one such person.
Her ability was a beta ability that granted her the physique of an eagle. It granted her wings and some other features of eagles, like excellent eyesight. But it also granted her hollow bones and a weak physique.
Her massive amount of destiny also didn't fix her weak body because she put most of it into strength and stamina. She needed the strength to life herself and the stamina in order to be able to maintain her flight.
That's the most common destiny allocation of supers with wings. They don't need vitality has it is rare for them to be hit or hurt since they are always high up in the air. They also don't need speed since they can escape by flying away. Unfortunately, she couldn't use her main talent underground. This led to her quick demise.
Steel physique has clearly improved his power, and he would be able to defeat her faster. But if he had the inorganic transformation omega ability of shapeshifters, he would be able to increase his endurance by transforming his body to diamond.
In that case, not even the S rank will be able to defeat him easily. So power rating is not everything that can determine the outcome of a battle.
He said to Wrath, "You're right. But I have a lot of weaknesses. Especially the lack of stamina and focus. That fight didn't last five minutes, but I was already drained. I need to fix that."
Wrath didn't think much of that weakness. "That's what usually happens when you are beaten within an inch of death. You need to fix a lot of weaknesses, not just your lacking stamina. But the best thing about you is that you have potential. With it, you can fix your weaknesses. Others are stuck with their abilities, so you can't complain."
Kelvin smiled, "What can I say? I want more abilities. I am just greedy."
He and Wrath chatted as they rode away. They were in a good mood, but the same couldn't be said about the information broker waiting for the outcome of the pursuit.
Someone came up to him and whispered in his ear. What he heard surprised him. He couldn't keep his voice down as he asked, "Zain is dead? Isn't that a little too quick?"
He went through the information about the target again.
It made him ask, "Didn't my sources say he only had steel claws? I selected Zain because the boy should be of moderate threat to him. I didn't expect that he would be able to kill Zain. Certainly not so quickly. There must be something fishy going on here."
