Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path

30 Chapter 29



After one month, Leon finally managed to cover all the walls with steel plates, and since he had nothing better to do, he decided to practice his control over the spears while creating his first line of defense. While he was doing, he got attacked by a few groups of pterodactyls, but only that. He killed them, but he didn't find other tomes. It looked like the drop rate was low, and he got the Freeze Lance purely by chance.

One day, while Leon was wondering if he could replicate the Freeze Lance in order to use it without worrying about the cooldown time. However, he wasn't interested in using that skill; he was curious if he could learn new skills by creating magic projectiles and using them to attack.

"Considering that I didn't learn anything while using the steel spears and the earth sphere… I need to create the magic projectile at a fearsome speed and shot it almost immediately. It will be difficult to reach that level of mastery, but it is better than calling the name of the skill and losing the surprise element."

Although Leon didn't learn new skills while using the steel spears, his Spearmanship was increasing, and he was quite happy with that because the speed and power of his attacks were increasing. Regardless, he still wanted to learn those offensive spells by himself, since once again, it was getting hard to obtain free status points.

Like always, Leon decided to begin with small steps. Since the element earth was too dense and a lot of mana was used to create it, Leon decided to start with water since wind and fire were hard to control for the opposite motive. The secret of spells like Water Ball and Freeze Lance was speed; everything had to be done extremely fast, the creation and the firing. Leon decided to create a water bullet as quickly as he can and fire it as soon as it was ready. After several days of training, he reached the point where he could create a water bullet and fire in just one second, but he didn't learn a new skill.

"I'm still too slow, huh…. What a troublesome and pesky system."

That being said, Leon wasn't frustrated. He could understand why the system didn't recognize his attack at a fully-fledged spell; it was because any enemy could see and counter-attack before Leon could finish the spell. Again, it took Leon a few weeks before he could reach the system's standards. Despite that, he endured because he was leveling up his other skills at the same time.

Regardless, the system's standards were quite high. Leon had to create and fire the projectile in an interval of 0.2 seconds. Another problem with offensive spells was the fact that they could only be used at full power, and once they hit the target, Leon would lose control over them. He couldn't even control their trajectory.

"I guess everything has its advantages and disadvantages… but the power of the bullet is quite decent."

Leon could see a hole of the size of a bullet in the tree he used as a target, and considering that the skill would grow stronger while giving him free status points, there was no reason not to use it.

The next morning, Leon put another mark on the tree he was using to count the days. While he was training, he never felt like counting the days he was there, but after succeeding in learning an offensive spell alone, he decided to count.

"…363, 364, 365… I have been here on this island for one year."

Leon immediately started to regret his actions, because of a single success, he dropped his guard only to notice the reality of the situation he was in at the worst time possible. Leon felt like someone throw at him a bucket of cold water. All the results of his ward of work of the last year immediately disappeared from his mind, and Leon felt like his body became sluggish.

Once again, Leon started to question the point of everything, why he was struggling so much? Despite the powers that he acquired, he still couldn't imagine himself surviving the trip back to the continent. Leon had never imagined that he had so little willpower. Although he worked hard to receive the chance to study abroad, he was once again ready to give up. Even if he returns to his home... his home, his hometown probably wouldn't be even there. He could see a dragon crossing the oceans quite frequently, so the situation in the continents was supposed to be far worse than his actual situation. Even if he returns, he won't find his home, his family, his hometown…
