Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path

638 Chapter 636



Although only two days have passed since Leon saw them, Amanda, Maya, and Hector looked much better than before. They didn't look exhausted, so the power of the spirits was proving to be useful as expected. Even though they could only summon lesser spirits…

Their camp also seemed pretty much fine; Leon could see hundreds of dragons being dismantled only a few human corpses. Although no casualties were the best option, Leon wasn't naïve enough to think that fighting against dragons and not losing some lives was something possible.

p Even though Leon appeared suddenly by using Teleport, Amanda, Maya, and Hector relaxed a little bit when they recognized him. Although that was convenient, that wasn't. They should do just by recognizing a face. So, he used to Transform and become a kitten.

"Don't lower your guards," Leon said, still in that form. "Recognize your allies by their mana, not by their faces. I'm not the only one who can do this, you know."

"… You really can do a lot of things," Hector said, surprised while he watched Leon returning to his real form.

"Thanks to you, and the power you gave us, the battles became a little less messy, and now we can prevent many deaths," Amanda smiled and then bowed slightly. "Thank you for your help… even though we treated you poorly more than once, you helped us more than we can recompensate you."

Leon felt that her natural smile was more than enough, but he couldn't get all that sentimental in front of his little sister. So, Leon only nodded and showed a small smile. Maya still seemed a bit cautious of Leon, but that was only a sign that she wasn't dumb or naïve. However, it wouldn't make any difference if her guard was up or not if the enemy was someone who had the same power as Leon.

"Sorry for not coming sooner. I spend a year trying to find the spirit of the time," Leon said. "That being said, her powers were worth the hassle, as you can see. The moment we noticed that Earth was about to be attacked, we hurried to make me find the other spirits, but…"

"One year… I suppose it couldn't be helped since you tried so hard for a year," Hector said, visibly impressed. "Still… somehow you look a bit different than before, your overall appearance didn't change, but I guess your behavior matured… no offense."

Hector's instincts were right, and it was quite surprising that he could tell that. Still, it was a bit too much to hope for that he had to endure four hundred years of solitude to obtain Sekundez's power. Regardless, Leon changed the subject by forcing a smile.

"How many new dungeons appeared? Are the others still active?" Leon asked.

"We know the locations of ten dungeons that became active and that are spawning dragons," Hector showed a serious look in his eyes. "All the other dungeons became inactive, so we can only hunt dragons for meat and other resources… Well, it is not like we can ignore them."

As expected, dragons were most likely the ultimate race of monsters they would face. Although they were spawning like mob monsters, their power was the real deal… Leon had to ask the details about the sixth stage of assimilation, but he could already imagine what would happen… a battle royal of all the species that managed to survive.

Considering the power anyone could obtain as long as they have coins, most likely, the big guns would use summons to weaken people like Leon and Ilyana. So, they would need human help to avoid that. That gave Leon another idea… dragons would be the best monsters to hunt for the sake of status and coins, but it was too risky. So, he decided to use his own summoned monsters to help humans while he can.

"How are your forces? Do you guys think that you have enough soldiers?" Leon asked. "If you need to train some recruits, I can help you with that."

"Really? That will help a lot," Hector replied. "Some people had a late start, so that will help those. However, since dragons tend to attack at night, sending your monsters between noon and sunset would be more convenient."

Leon nodded, and then he passed them the knowledge of how to learn Mindscape Transportation. Most likely, Leon wouldn't be able to help all that much, but Ilyana would… she had plenty of monsters lying around on that planet, after all. Regardless, Leon also gave them the knowledge of several buffs they could practice with relative ease. Some other skills would help a lot, like Mind Summoning, but since that kind of spell might make humans turn a wrong turn somewhere, he refrained from doing that.

After that, Leon transported his friends' consciousness to his mindscape and let them train there for a few days. Meanwhile, only thirty seconds passed in reality.

"Use that power to help the others," Leon said. "As much as I wanted to help, I have to focus on myself since that will help us all."

"Thank you… brother," Amanda said.

Leon had turned around and was about to leave, but thanks to those words, he hesitated a little bit. It wouldn't be weird if Amanda had some dreams of some events triggered the memories of the past, but Leon couldn't help but think that Amanda was told that because he was strange who helped them a lot but also claimed to be her brother. In the end, Leon used Teleport and vanished.

Now more than ever, Leon couldn't fail, but he couldn't drop his guard either. It was impossible to know how or when his enemies would strike, so he couldn't slack off.
