Even Leon was shocked when he noticed that he managed to stop Necro by using Telekinesis. Although Dragon Mode increased his status, he didn't expect that he still would be able to do that… it didn't make any sense. However, Leon soon understood what had happened. He had used too much mana and much faster than usual… Leon didn't know how, but it looked like Dragon Mode increased not only his status and the resilience of his body but also his ability to control mana because his body was almost as similar as one of the dragons, after all.

Leon's ability to expand the scope of Mana Magnetism increased as well, so Rem and Shadow still had enough power to do what Leon asked them. However, the difference of power was still too big… in just a few moments, Netro freed himself from Leon's Telekinesis and opened his mouth to use the skill the dragons were known for… Dragon's Breath.

Leon immediately teleported to dozens of kilometers away from there, but surprisingly, nothing came from Netro's mouth. Still, Leon felt the danger for his life. Without a hit of hesitation, he used the few scales he obtained from Netro's body and used them to protect his vital organs. As expected, in the next moment, Leon's body, legs, and arms became dust.

"Shit… another conceptual attack, but at least I managed to protect the other parts of my body that would need a lot more energy to regenerate."

It looked like Netro couldn't use the same skill as before, but he had an alternate version that he could use on his dragon form. Although that been a terrific attack, Leon knew that he had a few seconds left before the next one. So, he began to eat the slightly bigger chunk of dragon's tail that Rem and Shadow brought to him.

"There is an exception for every rule, but as expected… even that guy can't use an attack more powerful than his body can withstand. If he were a mage like me who is only good at destroying things, I wouldn't have survived his dragon's breath, but that also means that he won't go down that fast."

Regardless, thanks to all that, Leon learned a lot, and he could see firsthand the power of the conceptual attacks, something that he always wanted to see but never asked even Ilyana to show. Not only that, Leon eventually saw that Netro wasn't healing his body… he wondered if the dragon was waiting for recovery to do its magic in order to conserve energy or if he was trying to fool Leon. Nevertheless, after surviving thus far, Leon wouldn't get careless.

Still, the last thing Leon needed was to let that battle get longer than necessary. Although that might be good because that would give Ilyana plenty of time to save things on Earth, he couldn't let her expose herself all that much… the final battle would eventually happen, but Leon didn't have to let that happen even sooner.

"If his breath can damage me no matter what… then…"

After healing himself, Leon teleported and approached Netro again. It looked like since his body was massive, he didn't want to move all that much in order to conserve his energy, but Leon knew how fast his paws could be. Regardless, he still charged forward because the scales wouldn't last that long. Those probably could withstand one or two more attacks, so time was of the essence.

Netro opened his mouth again, but that only gave Leon a chance he had been looking for. After using Teleport again, he appeared inside the dragon's mouth and activated every single skill that increased his strength and then grabbed the Netro's tongue to use as a shield. However, the power of a conceptual attack was even more amazing than Leon had imagined. Even though he was behind the tongue, only his body got destroyed.

"This isn't over yet…" Leon muttered while he withstood the pain of having his limbs being destroyed down to a molecular level.

Even without asking, Rem and Shadow did what Leon wanted and attacked the interior of Netro's mouth. The best option would be to damage his brain, but Leon was fully aware that they wouldn't have enough time. So, they only attacked the same point above Leon. When Netro's mouth was about to close and smash Leon, they finally damaged the dragon's left eye.

The pain made Netro close his mouth even faster, but it was already too late when he did. Leon had already escaped, and his eye was already destroyed.

"Kuh! You bastard…" Netro glared at Leon as if he was trying to kill him with his eyes alone.

Leon ignored the bloodlust of that dragon because he was too tired to care about it. He had been close to death so many times in the last few hours that he got used to it. Regardless, Leon didn't waste time and teleported to attack the remaining eye because even the dragon's meat wouldn't let him recover his body fast enough if he continues to get hit by that conceptual dragon's breath.

Leon attacked the right eye using several Plasma Lances while Shadow and Rem tried to get another chunk of the dragon's tail, but the beast had been waiting for that. Netro protected its right eye by using both of its paws and swung his tail to smash the spirits. Thanks to Shadow's power, they escape unscathed, but that confirmed that the same trick wouldn't work that easily anymore. It looks Leon would need the power of another spirit.
