Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path

After spending one more week on the gremlins' world, Leon decided to make good use of his new bracers somewhere else. The perfect place would be the minotaurs' dungeon, and so he headed there.

"I think I'm going to regret this... but It is the perfect way to train Pain Resistance," Leon said after a long sigh.

As expected, the minotaurs' dungeon was in the same way. Their numbers were massive, but at least it looked like it wouldn't increase. Regardless, Leon looked for a solitary minotaur. Although that wasn't necessary since he could just sneakily approach using Invisibility and then become invisible again once he defeats the monster, Leon decided to do things slowly since fighting up close wasn't his area of expertise... he didn't even know if magic was, but liked to think that was the case. After finding the perfect test subject in the perfect situation, Leon readied himself when the beast charged at him.

"Mega... Punch!" Leon shouted.

...

As expected, Leon felt shivers when a sharp pain traveled through his arm to all parts of his body, but one moment later, a torrent of energy filled his body and immediately healed his destroyed arm. As for the minotaur, Leon's punch broke his nose and made the creature lose one-third of its health.

"I guess the result isn't half-bad."

"Why did you shout the name of the skill?" Celsius asked.

"I would bet that the reason is pretty stupid," Undine said.

"Hahaha! You two can't understand the spirit of a warrior," Efreet said. "To get in the mood, a warrior has to do things like that. Otherwise, his blood won't burn in the middle of a battle area."

Leon shouted the name exactly because of that, but since the reason was stupid, he decided to keep quiet about it. Regardless, the enemy wasn't dead, but before killing it, Leon decided to increase his health to see the difference. He already had increased it a lot in the previous month, but it looked like it didn't have been enough.

This time without trying to look cool, Leon waited for the minotaur's charge, and when the beast was about to swing its ax, Leon stepped forward, activating Mega-Punch. As expected, the pain decreased, but it was still enough to make Leon sweat cold since the pain was internal and not external.

...

Much for Leon's surprise, the cause fifty percent more damage and even stunned the minotaur since the bones of its face had been destroyed, and the brain received shook due to the impact. A regular Bash had been enough to finish off the beast.

"Although my health is much bigger than before, the effects of the Mega-Punch are still stupidly powerful. The pain didn't decrease all that much... so I guess increasing endurance is the only way to decrease the pain."

That was a problem because Leon didn't want to increase the number of statuses he had to spend his free status points. In the end, Mega-Punch was just a hidden card that Leon wanted to use to surprise some opponents. Since the pain only lasted for a moment, he decided to endure instead of getting rid of it. Besides, Pain Resistance had to been put to good use.

"Let's just hope this skill won't damage my nerves and blood vessels..."

Since Leon was already there and the minotaurs wouldn't use magic unless he uses first, Leon decided to train his physical skills. It was the perfect moment to do so... even though he was barely causing damage. Despite that, Leon had a great time using them. There were few things more pleasant than kicking a monster that was made of flesh and bones instead of metal.

In order not to waste the mana he was recovering faster than he could spend fighting up close alone, Leon decided to level up his other weak spells. Despite their cost, they could prevent Leon from being surrounded by enemies, and he also needed more status points, so he killed two birds with one stone.
