Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path
627 Chapter 625

Leon's mind started to get foggy… it had been a long time since he felt like that. His body was getting hotter because Rage was already at the max level. Despite that, the bonuses it granted for Leon's physical status were still increasing.

"You…" Leon said while he clenched his fists. "Death will be a mercy that you won't have… I will be sure to make you suffer much more than you actually deserve."

"This was much easier than I expected," The shadowy figure said. "But it is not over yet."

Several shadows started to appear nearby Darya. All of those were zombies, but they didn't belong to the same species. Leon could see demi-humans that had the features of many species, ants, centaurs, minotaurs… Leon could even see angels there. Most likely, all those people were the best fighters of their respective species, and the shadowy figure made sure to strengthen as much as he could before turning them into zombies.

"Sekundez…" Leon muttered.

"The current you can't do anything about it," Sekundez replied before Leon could even ask. "You fought against angels before who were trying to revive their god, bringing someone back from the dead. You would have to sacrifice that amount of mana."

"Is that so…" Leon bit his lips.

In the end, Leon would have to deal with another failure. He obtained beyond his wildest dreams, but even somethings were impossible for him. Regardless, saving Darya was impossible, but at least Leon would free her from that torment.

Leon used Teleportation, but instead of himself, he moved Darya to his side. Without wasting time, Sekundez began to use Time Manipulation. According to her, zombies were basically bodies without souls. They weren't much different from objects, thanks to that, a lot less mana was used to make her body turn back to a regular corpse, but that cost ninety percent of Leon's mana. After that, Ilyana moved Darya's body back to reality.

"Oh? So that is the power of the spirit of time’" The shadowy figure said, visibly impressed. "But you used a lot of mana to save a single one of them… do you think you have enough time to do the same with those?"

Even if he wanted, Leon was fully aware that the shadowy figure wouldn't let Leon do the same to his ever-growing army of zombies. Leon could see thousands of zombies in front of him. That was the result of working behind the scenes for thousands of years. Most likely, each one of those zombies was stronger than the dragons Leon had faced in Sekundez's dimension. So, it wouldn't be easy…

However, Leon didn't want to save those people. They were strangers for him. The best thing he could do for them was to make the shadowy figure lose control over them. The best way to do that was by making sure that the bastard wouldn't have any more corpses to use.

"Efreet…" Leon muttered.

"Hahaha! Leave this to me! I will burn them all!" Efreet suddenly appeared while falling, and then he hit the center of the army of zombies.

"Don't use too much mana…" Leon said.

The amount of mana Leon could recover there was limited. To make things worse, the shadowy figure wanted his zombies to make him spend even more mana than he can recover. Although he was stronger, he needed to be careful because he didn't know if Ilyana could intervene.

In his previous form, only Leon could see Efreet, but now that he evolved, things changed. The army of zombies tried to attack him, but whenever they tried, they burned their hands, and their bodies started to melt. That surprise the shadowy figure a little bit, so he granted his undead army a small portion of his power. It wasn't much, but now they had a weaker version of Dark Aura. That would prevent them from dying too soon, and they also would make Leon lose more mana since Efreet's existence was directly related to it.

Leon decided that he wouldn't kill the bastard. He would torment him for as long as he can. However, he couldn't defeat such a creature without, at the same time, trying to kill it. So, he could only hope that the son of a bitch would survive what he was about to do.

Pointing both of his arms toward the shadowy figure, Leon began to concentrate. A small flame appeared in front of him, but the small flame was so powerful that it could make all the space around it vibrate. A few moments later, the sphere became round and now had the same size as a baseball. It was a mini-sun. Even though it had the power to decimate the zombies one after the other, it wasn't enough to take down that bastard.

"It looks like I will cause some problems for Ilyana…" Leon muttered.

It was insane, but Leon was determined to fuse a spell that he hadn't even learned yet with another that he barely could control. That could easily cause his death, but unless he goes to such lengths, Leon won't defeat the son of a bitch.

The red sun suddenly started to get dark, and the atmosphere of that dimension begun to change. Everything started to be pulled by the dark-reddish sun, even the dark aura of the zombies.

"Shadow…" Leon muttered.

"What a pain," Shadow sighed.

Before the dark aura could be pulled by the magic and disappear into oblivion, Shadow absorbed it and transferred the mana to Leon. The shadowy figure finally understood what Leon wanted to do, and due to it, he began to sweat cold.
