Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path

672 Chapter 670

Netro was an asshole, but he sure managed to do some crazy things despite his limitations, but then again, that much as expected, given that he was probably the strongest of a race of dragons. Leon felt that he was giving too much credit for Netro's bloodline, but it was a fact that dragons were formidable enemies at all levels.

"It looks like I will face the same problems he faced while using conceptual attacks," Leon said. "Still, I can understand why aiming isn't difficult… it is like attacking while skipping the principal steps, after all."

In any case, Leon succeeded in performing a conceptual attack, so he could keep improving. Although there was a problem with the attack's aim, he could think of numerous ways to decrease those drawbacks. However, instead of confirming that, Leon had to confirm if the distance would only make things even worse.

Leon took a few steps backward and tried the same thing he did it before. This time, he used his mana, but nothing happened. However, when he tried again, a small part of the grass got destroyed by an invisible Water Bullet. As expected, the area wasn't even wet. However, Leon confirmed that the distance between him and the target would make things even more complicated.

"Netro canceled the need to aim with Absolute Accuracy, but by relying on that skill to solve the whole problem, he sacrificed the chance of destroying the opponent's head or heart," Leon concluded. "By the look of things, the places I can hit can't be controlled by normal means…"

Maybe Sekundez and Ilyana know a way to counter that. Still, the chances of them giving him such useful information were close to none, given that they didn't share the knowledge of how to succeed in using conceptual attacks. Regardless, considering that Netro used a skill that had such a name would make his attacks hit his opponents no matter what and still couldn't kill them in one shot, Leon would have to work even more. However, instead of worrying about the problems, Leon was already thinking about other new ability applications. Now that he could skip some steps of several things, Leon decided to create a copy of Ilyana's vault. Now that he could use space magic, time magic, and could use conceptual attacks, perhaps he could replicate and customize to improve it.

In the end, much to his surprise, Leon succeeded on his first time. By using all those skills at the same time, he created a space like his mindscape. However, Leon had to create some rules to access such a place. He could only store and take inorganic things there, and some mana had to be consumed to take certain things. Also, only those who had a part of Leon's mana in their bodies could access it.

"This was much easier than I expected…" Leon frowned. "I guess I just need to change the currency from mana to coins… coins are just mana, after all. Tattooing, everyone will also be a pain. Instead of that, I should just create a ring that has my emblem engraved."

Again, things progressed pretty fast. Leon created the ring and could tell just by feeling that the ring's wearer could access the mindscape he had created to store all kinds of things. Now Leon would be able to help all humans and even obtain some mana from it. Also, since that mindscape existed in another plan of existence, Leon could change coins to mana at will, and the reverse was also possible.

"Perhaps Ilyana transformed my coins into mana, and the mana I had used thanks to her were the coins I had spent previously," Leon nodded to himself. "Anyway, when does she plan to return? It has been a week already."

Although Leon found something nice to play with, he has begun to worry about Ilyana. She was probably fine, but given that she already became a part of his routine, it was weird when he doesn't hear her voice.

"Whatever… time to replicate those rings and distribute them among the people of Earth," Leon smirked. "I bet I can make even better items than the ones they can find in the dungeon shops."

Without wasting time, Leon began to create mithril items that could increase status by leaps and bounds. However, the very moment he put the first item in the shop he created, Leon received an unexpected notification.

Congratulations! You have learned the skill: Mana Creation.

You obtained 01 status points.

"What the heck…" Leon frowned. "Mana Creation?"

Leon didn't recall doing anything special to learn a new skill, and if that name was correct, it looked like he created mana without using mana… was that even possible?

After thinking for a while, Leon understood that the space he had created was auto-sufficient somehow. Even though it couldn't exist physically, it required mana to exist. It was only obvious… but then again, Leon was confused because he couldn't understand how he created such a feature without wishing for it.

While Leon was creating the rings, he understood how his shop could exist without consuming his own mana. However, after several hours, Leon didn't find an answer. He was only a newbie in such matters, after all.

"Sekundez," Leon said. "Do you know why this is happening?"

"Do you think only Sekundez has the answer, and all the other spirits are stupid?" Celsius asked.

"No, I just asked because it was related to her power…" Leon frowned. "If you have the answer, then I don't mind in hearing it from you."

"It is so obvious that I feel annoyed in saying something like this," Celsius sighed. "You just reached the level where you can create mana."

"Create instead of infusing?" Leon asked. "I always wondered how come people could get stronger by using mana. Somehow, I always felt that mana was related to our life experiences since those were the only things that changed the more we fought."

"You are not wrong," Celsius said. "Mana is the power of your spirit since we spirit are made of mana, something like that should be already obvious to you. In any case, a spirit can become stronger in many ways by accumulating hard experiences or by getting old, and the stronger the spirit, the more energy it can contain and produce."
