Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path
359 Chapter 358
It took Leon one week for him to level up all his skills to level thirty, he was a bit satisfied with his progress, but to change the mood of the last days, he decided to take a break from his never-ending training. Since his only days off on his eight years were the days he was depressed on the island, he decided to take a day off for a change of pace. However, Leon didn't have any hobbies, and there was nothing nor even anyone to talk to.
"So, my only option is to go insane talking to myself or keep acting like a workaholic who doesn't feel anything..." Leon sighed. "I don't think I sinned so much in this life to deserve this..."
Still, Leon tried to relax even for a few hours... looking at the starry sky. That didn't help him. It only made Leon feel like he didn't have time to waste. Regardless, it looked like only impressive accomplishments would make him forget that...
"This will be a bit troublesome... but I guess it is the only way to avoid myself from getting too lax."
Instead of thinking of new spells, Leon decided to look for them on the dungeon shop and try to replicate them. He would do that once every three days and would only return to his task of filling Soul Eater with mana once he learns a new spell. That would add the sense of urgency Leon was missing as of late.

"I guess I also should level up this to the level thirty..."
Much faster than he expected, thanks to Electromancy, Leon learned a new spell. Although the cost was a bit high, Leon leveled up the skill until level thirty within a day. Thus, he had two days to keep draining mana from the magic circle.
Congratulations! You have learned the skill: Thunder Slash.
Cost: 50 mana
You obtained 01 status points.
Two days later, Leon learned another skill and again leveled up the skill up to level thirty. It was thanks to Electromancy, so it couldn't be helped that he was learning new skills fast. In the end, Leon decided to learn other types of the spell, because he wasn't feeling accomplished doing that.
"I don't even know what I'm doing anymore… I'm trying to go home by making myself motivated, or am I just trying to feel proud of myself?"
Trying to learn spells like Ice Meteor would take too long, and if Leon keeps failing, he would only feel depressed and make things worse. So, he decided to keep things as simple as possible.
Congratulations! You have learned the skill: Orb of Magma.
Cost: 50 mana
Duration: 5 seconds
You obtained 01 status points.
Orb of Magma was a skill that Leon developed by combining a Magma Bullet and Telekinesis, by using both, he could keep using the same projectile for a certain period of time. It was quite a good way to kill small fries while saving his mana.
Unfortunately, the same type of attack with other elements wasn't that useful. The same thing couldn't be applied for Fire Slash, Ice Slash, and Earth Slash, so Leon practiced those for the next ten days. However…
Congratulations! You have learned the skill: Fire Slash.
Cost: 40 mana
You obtained 01 status points.

"Yep. Although I'm getting stronger, this isn't changing my mood… I lived an irregular life since that dragon crashed that plane… only random and surprising things will change my mood. Only real tension will motivate me to keep me working hard and let me stay focused."
It was pathetic, but Leon would never feel that way as long as he stays alone on such a planet. There were no challenges for him there… he finally understood why he felt so motivated and focused on the island. It was because he was never safe. He didn't know at the time that dragons suddenly disappeared, but he thought that he would see them the very moment he leaves the island. At that time, two species of Apex-predators dominated the skies and the seas, so he couldn't help but feel motivated to obtain the power to defeat them.
"I guess I will have to return to Miebos much sooner than I planned… It is a massive waste to leave all the mana on those four planets, but I guess it can't be helped…"
In the end, Leon decided to at least absorb all the mana in the magic circle on Dasaliv. Still, quite surprisingly, he didn't feel all that bothered anymore. He soon would get close to another enemy, and this time the enemy had for sure the means to send him back to Earth. Although the monsters were weaker and the mana Leon will be able to collect, there couldn't be compared to a world on the third stage of assimilation; everything wasn't just bad news. Leon could obtain access to knowledge of the researchers on Miebos, after all. He already kicked Donan's ass once, so he can do it twice if he has to. Of course, he would negotiate, but when someone doesn't listen to reason, the chances of that someone listening to painful lessons increase.
"Well, I should get going… I'm quite scared of what long periods of isolation can do to my psyche, considering that those four years sealed my holy sword…"
