Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path

Thanks to Tyrselle's support, the fourth Leon managed to recover Las Vegas just one month after the monsters appeared. That was one hell of an achievement, and that made everyone that heard about him run as fast as possible toward the city and join his side. Despite that, the fourth Leon was at least smart enough not to get ahead of himself. After all, he obtained knowledge from someone else, and he only survived until now, thanks to Tyrselle.

Tyrselle also gave him a lot of information about dungeons and monsters. When they would break, what type of attack was the weakness… Tyrselle even revealed to him the location of all dungeons near Las Vegas. After just one year, ninety percent of those who survived until that point was now living in Las Vegas. That was roughly five million people.

As one would expect, many problems began to happen, but Tyrselle also told Leon who were the troublemakers, and he dealt with them. Those who threatened the peace just vanished every night without leaving any sign of their existence. Thanks to all that, after just two years, all thoughts of cautiousness about Tyrselle had disappeared from his mind.

"I should have expected that…" Leon facepalmed and then sighed." Why am I so gullible? This guy never saw her face… but although she is as pretty as Ilyana, and does have a sweet voice… and… whatever…"

It doesn't matter who Tyrselle looked like, she summoned the dragons, which caused his parents' death, and that also forced Leon to stay four years alone on a tropical island… he didn't have to worry about how she looked. Tyrselle had to die, end of the story. Still, it was only natural that he would be forced to ponder about such things while he had to see things from another perspective.

Regardless, even though he waited for troublesome guys like William to appear, only small fries tried to cause problems, and since the fourth Leon was quick to eliminate them, the problems never escalated. It took a while for the rest of the world to deal with the problems of their own territories, but once they recovered a few of their cities and managed to create a decent network to collect intel, most world leaders decided to contact the fourth Leon… Makoto was one of them.historical

"Let's see how things will play out this time…" Leon sighed. "A lot of things changed… so maybe my interactions with them changed as well."

Just as Leon had imagined, Makoto and Yuki were different. It was due to the fact that Makoto's son died when the Earth Dragon's dungeon broke a few months prior. Makoto had become an emperor who would seek strength for himself and for his soldiers, no matter the cost, and Yuki was also following the same path… weirdly enough, she didn't have her healing powers.

"Now that I think about it… she didn't have it before when I watched the third Leon's life. "Leon rubbed his chin and nodded to himself. "More and more, it is getting obvious that Ilyana is probably the one who gave her those powers…"

Although that made sense in Leon's head, he couldn't explain why Ilyana did that. Based on the life of the first Leon, she was a bit of a jealous wife… so why give power to someone who once married Leon? After thinking for a while, Leon realized that such powers granted Yuki the chance to stay more on the backline… although Yuki had talented at fighting with her fists, that was something she only noticed after Leon disappeared… Perhaps Ilyana knew Leon would be mesmerized by her while she fights or something.

Makoto became a powerful ally and a good friend, but much to Leon's surprise, the fourth Leon and Yuki didn't get along all that much. There was no chemistry between them. That Yuki was only interested in getting stronger, so even though she was supposed to become the next leader of Japan, she wasn't interested in political affairs.

Several years passed, and Leon noticed that the fourth one seemed to be destined to remain single. Leon was too busy training his skills and learning new ones while teaching other people. Despite all that, not a single woman tried to get closer to him more than necessary. It was really sad, but Leon could relate to that one.

"Anyway…" Leon said and then sighed. "No signs of Betty yet… Gisela didn't appear until now either. This isn't unexpected, but it is very sad…"

After a while, Earth finally reached the second stage of assimilation. New dungeons appeared, and new monsters began to attack the human race. Despite all that, the number of casualties was minimal. It was all thanks to the fact that Leon taught magic to everyone without discrimination.

"How many years have passed here? Twenty?" Leon frowned. "I guess Hammath's grandpa wasn't wrong when he concluded that mages could speed up the assimilation process."

The human race didn't have a lot of time to get stronger, but thanks to Leon's hard work, they got powerful fast enough to deal with the monsters' power-up. Leon recalled that during Sekundez's trial, the monsters grew stronger each day, and that was something that also happened in reality. The more mana a planet has, the stronger the monsters there get. However, given that most human beings could fight and defeat the monsters alone, the prospects of the human race finding doom at the end of that journey seemed quite small. That was even truer considering that their leader was receiving privileged information from someone from the future… Despite all that, Leon never dropped his guard.
