"Give me Soul Eater," Leon declared. "I already know that you guys can't approach Volt's temple, so you guys can't help me on his test. Given that you lied to me and didn't help me all that much, I demand Soul Eater as payment. Since I decreased the number of your enemies, I deserve that."

"No," Jorhorn looked at Leon in the eye and smirked.

"Last chance... give me the Soul Eater," Leon said.

"No," Jorhorn smiled triumphantly.

"... It is a pity that your brain didn't increase with your size," Leon sighed.

Leon looked around and confirmed that no one was against Jorhorn's decision. Alurelle looked conflicted for a while, but soon she seemed away uninterested and looked at the angels ready to fight. Leon sighed and again and then shook his head, it was a pity, but things would get much messier.

Suddenly, Leon disappeared from the battlefield, and everyone frowned. It didn't look like he had any intention of running away, so even the angels got caught off-guard. While everyone was confused, Jorhorn's spear suddenly left, his hand flew upward. After getting out of Jorhorn's reach, the spear stopped, and Leon appeared above it.

"Let's see how well you can fight without this," Leon smirked.

The harvesters looked at Leon astonished, even though he had a high-level in Telekinesis, his skill wasn't powerful enough to make the spear escape from Jorhorn's grip. He did something to make that possible, but they didn't know what.

"How did you..." Jorhorn said, astonished.

"You have a nice expression there..." Leon smiled. "Regardless, I don't need to explain anything to you."

There was a reason why everyone thought that their weapons were lighter than they were supposed to be considering their size. It was because Leon created them hollow; there was enough space inside them to Leon fit inside. He transferred himself to the inside of the weapon and then filled with his mana. With the help of Telekinesis, he managed to take back the mithril spear. It was his, after all, and if the harvesters didn't intend to follow their path of the agreement, he would take his equipment back... even though he used their mana to create them.

"HAHAHAHAHA!" Sanvi laughed as if she had heard the funniest joke of the universe. "I can't believe this, they are fighting amongst themselves in front of us... a single small human has those creatures on the palm of his hands!"

"Well then, until later..." Leon waved his right hand.

Before Leon could use Transfer again, Ivolaer turned into a massive sphere of lightning and jumped toward him. Despite his size, his speed was almost equal to Malahk's when he was in his sphere form. However, Leon managed to escape the direct hit. He didn't escape from the region but moved a few hundred meters away.

"I will take care of him," Ivolaer declared. "Just hang in there, this will be quick."

Leon used Transfer again and again, but since he had to look at the direction he wanted to go, Ivolaer managed to follow him on his 'electric' form. While he was running, he left a path of burned earth and lava, because everything that got close to him burned or melted.

"I guess he is the fastest and physically strongest using that skill... that is why he is confident that I won't take the sword away from him."

Leon wondered for how long Ivolaer could keep that skill active. However, even if he had a time-limit, Leon wouldn't keep running until he runs out of mana. He would fight once he confirms that no one of his friends will try to get on his way. Much to Leon's surprise, they were being followed by a sphere of light... it looked like Adellum wanted to fight against Leon no matter what.

"Things may get even messier if they team up..."

Half an hour later, Leon, Ivolaer, and Adellum reached the extreme north of the central continent. Leon felt that was more than enough, so he stopped. However, he made his massive spear fly toward Ivolaer's forehead. It looked like even Ivolaer's reaction speed increased. He managed to react on time and block Leon's attack. The area trembled, and the air vibrated due to the impact… but Ivolaer suffered no damage from it.

"I guess even if I can control the massive spear with Telekinesis, it doesn't compare to Jorhorn's strength…"

Ivolaer and Adellum finally returned to their 'ordinary' forms, Leon waited for a second, trying to understand how things would proceed. Ivolaer was also wary of Adellum, but it looked like the angel just wanted to observe the fight. His hammer was on his back, and his arms were crossed.

"Go on," Adellum said. "Fight to your heart's content. "I will face the winner."

"Face a weakened winner, I see…" Leon frowned.

While Leon and Adellum were talking, thunderclouds started to appear above the area. Ivolaer was wild and quite reckless, but he knew how to make good use of such chances. However, before any lightning bolt could fall, Leon used Transfer and reappeared above those clouds, and once again, he fired his massive spear. He decreased the weight of the weapon at the moment he shot and increased the moment it was about to be blocked by Ivolaer… once again, the area trembled, and the air vibrated to the point where small sparks of electricity were emitted when the weapons collided.

Leon used a lot of mana, but he caused some damage, and he even obtained the chance to use Transfer and appear behind Ivolaer very close to his nape. A single attack wouldn't help him much, even in that position. However, Leon could decrease Ivolaer's defense, and so he did it. Using Telekinesis from that distance, he managed to steal Ivolaer's helmet.
