Finally, there was the answer to the question he had always asked himself.
Do monsters have talents?
Apparently, according to what he saw of Koll's profile information, he now knew—monsters have talents too.
'Of course they do, else it wouldn't make sense how I'm able to absorb talent fragments.'
Which meant the only reason why he didn't see it in lower-rank monsters was because their talents were not yet fully formed.
The different case was if the monster had a True Name.
Northern believed that a True Name gave a monster a more definite essence, hence their talents could manifest, but not to the extent of a fully formed talent.
Another question that now bugged him was how does he copy monsters' talents?
Because he was sure he fought Koll and gained nothing from it.
Or maybe throughout their fight, the Castle Lord didn't use his talent abilities at all.
