Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path

It was starting to get hard obtaining spells and skills even from monsters, and it was also getting hard to remember the moments Leon was struggling in learning new spells as well since he deleted most of those moments.

Although learning spells and skills from tomes could free Leon from that kind of problem, Leon was determined to learn Mind Summon and Mindscape Materialization. Although even that kind of skill had limits, Leon was sure that he could find ways to use those powers well.

Years passed, and Leon finally had enough coins to buy Mind Summoning, and so he did it. When he received the notification, Leon couldn't help but feel like he was obtaining an absurd power, something that he didn't deserve to have yet. But that feeling was probably because he was deleting his memories of constant training.

Congratulations! You have learned the skill: Mind Summoning.

"Putting the stupid cooldown aside... it is kinda surprising that the skill doesn't have a cost of mana," Leon rubbed his chin. "It is probably because it depends on what kind of thing I want to summon."

Leon had a lot of mana, but the skill still was at level one. Considering the cooldown, Leon would have to summon something complex from his mind, but if he ends trying something far too complex, the skill will fail, he would be forced to wait for almost two hours to use the skill again, and he also would spend all his mana. In the end, Leon ended up being a little too careful and summoning a soccer ball, and he only spent a few hundred mana points. The skill leveled up a few times, but Leon a headache thanks to his stupidity.

"Woah... the texture and the weight are perfect," Leon said while he was touching the ball. "It is the exact same thing I felt when I bought that ball for Amanda."

Leon watched some of his memories when he was still in high school recently, and among them, he saw one where he bought the nine years old Amanda a soccer ball. Leon wasn't good at sport, and even though he played a little bit using that ball with Amanda and Hector, Amanda was the one who used it the most since she was really into soccer when she was a kid.

In the end, Leon made the ball explode when he tried to kick... he got too excited thanks to his memories, and he didn't control his strength enough. Although the mana fruits were quite good, Leon decided to summon some lemon juice this time... maybe it was because the skill was at level ten, but Leon didn't spend even one thousand mana points to summon it. Weirdly enough, the juice didn't taste weird at all... it was insane, but now Leon could create his own food and eat everything he once had when he was an ordinary guy.

"Well, I shouldn't get drunk on this power..." Leon warned himself once he realized that he was a bit too far amazed at his own skills. "I didn't learn this on my own, so I shouldn't feel proud of it. It is only thanks to Sekundez and Ilyana's power."

That was a good reminder, but it was clear that Leon would need some mental training to fully realize that. In any case, Leon didn't stop there. He could summon organic and inorganic things from his mind, so it was time to summon something else. Something more complex and that could move by itself would be a perfect test subject, so Leon summoned the first slime he met.

The creature moved around from one side to the other. It looked confused, but soon found a new goal when it saw Leon. The slime attacked Leon with Stone Arrows and Fireballs, but he didn't feel anything.

"I guess I can't learn summoning other monsters like this... I knew it wouldn't be so convenient." Leon said.

Leon spent one thousand mana points to summon that, so it looked like he could something far more complex. Perhaps even a smart monster... Still, Leon hesitated in doing so. As usual, he didn't want to play with lives, not even for science. Although testing the limits of his skills was something Leon had to do sooner or later, he was decided that he wouldn't cross certain lines.

Although Leon wanted to be careful, he ended up testing the limits of the skill in a way that caused him a lot of headaches. After trying to create the mithril helmet he got from Crik's men, Leon spent all his mana, and the skill failed.

"Shit... it looks like mithril can't be produced on any other way," Leon his eyebrows to get rid of the headache. "Although I probably can create something similar to that helmet, I still can't spend less mana than the necessary to create that amount of mithril."

To end the first day of the test, Leon tried to create Makoto's katana, and he succeeded... Leon just had to spend half of his mana, and he obtained an exact copy of it. It wasn't the same, and Yuki didn't even remember about the weapon. So, it wouldn't change anything.
