609 Chapter 607
It took him a full week, but Leon eventually managed to endure the pain while recovering enough mana to keep Mindscape Transportation and Accelerate active non-stop. Although that was quite a progress, Leon still wasn't satisfied because he couldn't stop worrying about Earth and his friends.
"Ilyana didn't contact me, so things must be under control, but even so…" Leon sighed and then dropped his shoulders.

At that rate, it would take a few months for Leon to master Accelerate… Although that also was excellent progress, Leon could only think about how he had messed up by almost killing Sekundez by losing the opportunity to become much stronger in mere moments. Regardless, thinking about it wouldn't change anything. According to Sekundez, he was damaging himself by restoring so much mana with his current body, so he didn't have time to think about past mistakes.
"I'm kind of hungry… I should have enjoyed more those dragons' meat," Leon sighed.
When Leon thought about that, he noticed that perhaps things weren't so bad on Earth. While some humans were dying, the survivors had the chance to obtain valuable loot and even the dragons' hearts. Considering the overall appearance of Hector, Amanda, and Maya, Leon concluded that they were having a hard time, but they didn't give in yet… so perhaps things weren't as bad as he thought.
"Even if that is true… there is no reason for me not to increase the pace here," Leon nodded to himself.
It was time to move on. Even though Leon got used to keeping Mana Magnetism with that scope active non-stop, he still had other things to do, like finding the spirit of light and the spirit of darkness. To find them, Leon would have to recover even more mana, so that he would need a few more days for that.

"Mmm… my replica is progressing much faster than I expected," Leon said, surprised. "As expected of me… I guess. Two new passive skills and a variation of Mana Armor that can be used to protect allies, not bad."
Although Leon's own mana would be spent whenever someone he wants to protect gets hit, that wasn't a problem since now he found a way to increase the scope of his Mana Magnetism. Even though Sekundez said that kind of thing might damage his spirit, Leon couldn't care less about it. Nothing would damage more his spirit than the death of his family and friends, after all.
"Protecting every single person on the Earth will be impossible with this skill, but at least if I manage to keep Amanda, Maya, and the others safe, it will be more than enough," Leon nodded to himself. "At least for my self-satisfaction."
Regardless, after increasing the recovery speed of his mana a little more. Leon decided to begin his search for the remaining spirits. Most likely, they wouldn't be as powerful as Sekundez, but the mana necessary to keep them in physical form would still be quite high.
"Ilyana said that I would be able to find them alone," Leon rubbed his chin. "I will probably need Mana Dominion for that… I just hope no one will find me by doing so. The last thing I need now is to fight someone. Even though I'm itching to kick some bastards' asses."
Just in case, Leon used Foresight at the same time he increased the scope of Mana Dominion. That way, he would know beforehand if something troublesome is about to happen.
"Now that I think about it, I also should use Foresight along with Clairvoyance to confirm now and then the safety of my friends," Leon concluded. "I can't rely too much on Ilyana despite everything, after all."
Putting such worries aside, Leon quickly found some signs of massive mana pools. The scope of Mana Dominion had increased tremendously without Leon could notice… it was because his intelligence, control, and mana increased a lot… but the fact that such skill drained little mana was also important.
"I don't believe that using the same directions outside Earth is accurate, but whatever," Leon shrugged. "There is one spirit-like presence at the north and another one at east… Although that is very convenient, I can't believe Mana Dominion can cover entire galaxies now…"
Even though that was convenient, the cost was a massive headache. Leon could endure it, but it wasn't one hundred percent convenient. Without wasting time, Leon activated Clairvoyance and tried to see what was on the location where he felt those two spiritual-like presences. However, he found nothing… in one place, he just saw endless darkness, and in the other, he saw a dazzling light. Most likely, the spirits created such environments to hide themselves, but both places were a pain in different ways since, in one, his eyes wouldn't work for lack of light, and the other, his eyes wouldn't work because there was too much light.
