Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path

Actions speak louder than words, so Leon decided to show rather than explain the process. Betty and Sasha looked at Leon, worried, but they couldn't stop him. They were aware of how inconvenient it was to live without an arm and a leg. Leon could move using earth, but it wasn't natural.

"Well... here goes nothing." Leon sighed to calm down his nerves.

This time Leon would try to regenerate his whole arm, so the pain would be much more intense and prolonged. So, he needed to prepare himself mentally. Otherwise, some unexpected things may happen in the process, causing some kind of anomaly. Precisely, Leon imagined that he would create a monster instead of his arm... Regardless, his fears didn't stop him.

Leon concentrated and focused as much as mana as possible on his right shoulders, and then he stimulated... then it happened. Little by little, Leon's arm started to regenerate itself. Leon felt like his own mana was damaging him from inside out, but in fact, his mana was just creating the path that connected his arm to his brain. The pain made Leon fell on his knees, but he kept himself concentrated all thanks to the fact that he could feel little by little his lost arm again.

The pain only stopped after half an hour, but despite the pain being gone, Leon felt like crap. The mental strain wasn't something to laugh at; he didn't collapse because he was prepared for it. Still, Leon felt like the pain was worth the trouble when he tried to get up and feel his right hand again.

Now Leon couldn't help but frown, he just wanted to find a way to heal his limbs, but it looked like he ended up discovering one hell of a useful skill. He would celebrate if he could, but he stopped when he finally noticed everyone nearby looking at him worriedly.

"I guess this is it…"Leon forced a smile. "I guess it wasn't so bad, right?"

"You looked like a fish out of water that was being electrocuted to the death…" Amanda frowned. "If you think that is normal, then perhaps you are not right. How do you feel now?"

"Pretty good actually, refreshed," Leon said while he checked his fingers and right arm. "I guess the skill really regenerated my arm to its original state… The process won't be easy, Gisela, since this skill forces your cells to regenerate to the point where they multiply. Are you ready?"

"Yes, I'm ready, master!" Gisela said, full of vigor.

"Wait a minute, sister…" Lennart said. "Shouldn't you prepare yourself mentally for a few days, you heard his moans of pain, but it is worse than you have imagined, you know."

"I know, but I can't wait any longer," Gisela said.

The pain would make her probably pass out, but since Gisela was so eager, Leon didn't hesitate either. Besides, they needed to heal her as much as possible, because there was no room to relax. From that day onward, Leon decided to train seriously, putting his life and his friends' lives on the line. He received congratulations for completing the job and protecting the survivors of the Atlantic Free Nation. However, he didn't forget that feeling when he saw those five hundred soldiers and many others dying in front of him. He hadn't been powerful enough to save them, and he never wanted to rely on outside factors to succeed in anything ever again.

Gisela stepped forward, and Leon touched her cheeks, that was another problem of Full-Recover, he needed to touch the person who he was supposed to heal. However, he already expected that much. With the full knowledge of the skill in his brain, Leon only had to think of activating the skill, and then it started to happen. Gisela started to moan in pain and sweat bullets; it didn't take long for her to fall on her knees and tremble too. But as if she wanted to make Leon less guilty, she endured the pain and got used to it as much as possible.

The area healed was smaller, so, Gisela only suffered for five minutes, but when the pain was gone, she collapsed. Lennart worriedly moved toward her and checked her pulse; it was normal. She just passed out due to the mental strain. However, such worries almost disappeared when Lennart took out the bandages Gisela had on her head. He got speechless… his sister's eyelids were there, and there wasn't a single sign of scars. He gently raised her eyelids, and then he saw the eyeballs.

"Oh my God… it's healed!" Lennart shouted.

"Don't celebrate yet; we have to check her eyes when she wakes up," Leon said.

"Yes! Yes! Thank you very much!" Lennart said and hurried to shake Leon's hands.

"Like I said…" Leon sighed.

Before Leon could finish his sentence, Lennart carried his sister to her room. The others approached to congratulate Leon, but they soon stopped when they saw his serious face. He just learned an unbelievable spell, but he wasn't satisfied with that, he wanted more.

"Is there something on your mind, brother?" Amanda asked.

"Yes, a lot of things…" Leon said. "However, don't worry. You guys only to have about keeping yourselves alive from now. We will train as much as possible to obtain the power to create our own luck. For the time being, you guys can rest. But from tomorrow onward, we will train while putting our lives on the line… by the way, you should only cook food for Maya from now on.

"… Why?" Amanda frowned.

"Because our food now will be dragon hearts day in and day out," Leon answered. "By the way, I will create an underground training arena under your house. I hope you don't mind."
