Chapter 230 - "Power Hierarchy"
Seeing Ainsley's shocked face, the Godfather sighed.
[You are surrounded by a lot of geniuses. No wonder you don't know this, lass.]
[What do you mean, though, uncle Godfather?] Ainsley tilted her head. Indeed, her people were powerful despite the family being a poor one on the brink of collapsing.
She had never met ability user experts from a low-ranked family.
Not wanting to waste time, the Godfather immediately explained. [You recalled those people using fire arrows, water spear, rock skin, and other specific skills, right?]
[Yeah.]
[Hum. They can only use that one skill. Take the example of the guy using the fire arrow. He can only create fire arrows with his fire ability. He can't create fireballs or other things!]
Ainsley instantly gasped.
So weak? If they can only use that one skill, isn't that too weak compared to other ability users??
[That's why I told you that they're weak. Lass, don't think that everyone can control elemental power like your fairy friend and the five brats.]
The Godfather shrugged.
[Those that can use the complete power of the elemental abilities are all at least dual-ability users!]
[What?! So...those that only have one ability can't create an element as their wishes?]
Ainsley's eyes widened in shock. She had seen Finley using his fire, wind, and water abilities. He could shape it to form whatever he wanted…
How come the others can't? Isn't this too unfair?
Seemingly aware of Ainsley's thoughts, the Godfather curled the corner of his lips.
[It's indeed unfair, lass. Those people who have one elemental ability can only have a fragment of the real elemental ability.]
In other words, there would be a lot of elemental ability users, but those without two or more abilities could only use one specific skill, such as the fire arrow or the water spear.
Whereas those who had the complete elemental abilities could shape their power to countless other forms, as creative as they could be.
From this alone, one could see the power difference.
No matter how large a person's energy source was, no matter how good their control over their power...if they only had a fragmented elemental ability…
When they faced someone with a complete elemental ability, they would undoubtedly lose.
It's called power hierarchy.
The Godfather had also told Ainsley before that those people with the same abilities could have different strengths.
It depended on their energy source's size, their precise control, and the power hierarchy born from their talents!
That's why, dual-ability users and more would always be superior to others. The more abilities one could acquire, the stronger they would be.
Ainsley gradually understood more about this world's special abilities. It turned out, Fin and the five buds were stronger than what she could imagine!
Marietta could control a complete nature element, but others might only be able to create and control a vine...or control a specific plant…
They're definitely not as powerful as Marietta.
[You see your loyal nanny, that Ely-thingy?] The Godfather suddenly spoke as he pointed at Elliana.
The group was currently walking down the corridor of the ninth floor, about to enter the casino venue.
[What's with her?] Ainsley subconsciously asked.
Elliana is okay, right?
[Heh. You know her purple fire? That's a deadly poisonous fire, a rather high-level ability among fire ability users.] The Godfather nodded at Elliana with a face full of satisfaction.
At least this woman was rather talented with such a good fire ability.
[Your nanny can create a lot of skills with that ability, but well, your fairy is stronger than her.]
The Godfather casually blurted out Finley's name, even revealing a bit about that guy's power.
After all, Finley's fire might look like an ordinary red fire, but deep inside, it was actually golden.
That fire...was the mother fire of all fire in this world.
All fire ability users would have to bow down in front of that fake fairy once he decided to reveal the golden fire hidden inside his red fire!
Even his wind and water ability was also at top level. Such power could only be countered by royal fairies or royal elves.
No wonder he's the heir of the strongest mafia family in this era. That boy's talent was terrifying!
Of course, the Godfather didn't know that Finley didn't acquire such good quality abilities in his last life because he awakened them first before contracting a fairy.
Now, he had already contracted Chronos since birth and only then awakened his elemental abilities.
The fairies were the favourite children of the world aside from elves and dragons. They were especially gifted in elemental abilities.
Thus, when Finley, who had life and death bond with a top-notch fairy, awakened his elemental ability, this world also favoured him!
Even when he's not a transmigrator, which was often a unique case in this world, his 'main character' halo shone brightly.
[Anyway, once you get a decent offensive ability, you can protect yourself better than now.] The Godfather added.
Actually, Ainsley's charm and luck ability was already super good when used in a frontal battle, but she hadn't reached the realm where she could use those abilities as offensive abilities.
Once Ainsley's energy core became bigger and her comprehension toward her abilities improved as well, only then she could use her existing abilities as an offensive type.
[It will be nice if you can be a shaman, lass. Or get more offensive, defensive, scouting or production abilities.]
The Godfather sighed as he recalled the powerful and balanced abilities he acquired in the past.
Ainsley wouldn't be able to be the best in this world if she didn't become an all-rounder!
And that means...she might end up just like him.
The Godfather's eyes flashed with a mysterious light.
