Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path
694 Chapter 691

Currently, Leon was just a spiritual being who couldn't do anything, but weirdly enough, he could feel his blood boiling when he saw his sister and Sasha's corpses. It was only obvious that he would feel mad beyond reason. Showing him that wasn't only cruel. It was disgusting, despicable… something only a low-life would force him to watch.

For some reason, even before they would wipe out all the humans, the angels tried to create that massive magic circle on Earth. Using the mana of six planets wasn't enough to revive their good by the look of things. In any case, Leon and that Leon couldn't care less about their goals.

After fighting for dozens of years, the human race finally killed all the angels. That Leon and his friends finally had their revenge, but they didn't feel anything over it. Not only that, Hector changed. He was the group leader who now only had a couple of thousands, but slowly, he abandoned his position and eventually even disappeared, leaving Maya behind.

Things didn't get any easier after that. Although Leon's control over magic was increasing, there was only so much he could do given that he had to fight and protect the few humans who were still alive. Around that time, that Leon finally mastered his area of effect and healing spells. So, he began to research spells that increased one's status, and movement spells like Transfer and Checkpoint.

"Yeah… this one here is very slow in comparison to me," Leon sighed.

Leon was fully aware that he had some talent when it comes to magic, but it looked like the same way he had all the misfortune of the others. He also stole all their talent. Again, it was the only explanation.

At that point in time, Leon began to wonder if Ilyana really wanted just to torment him. If that were the case, there wouldn't be any reason for her to show him an alternate version of himself who wasn't very good at learning new spells. Despite that, the big picture was still unclear, but Ilyana's words began to echo inside his head.

"When you wake up, I hope that you still will chase our dream."

Although her intentions were unknown, at least Ilyana's behavior could make one thing that she was thinking about Leon. The black-haired woman's words also made Leon think that. However, Leon couldn't let himself in assume that so easily.

"You really are pathetic, Ilyana. You always take your sweet time when he is involved."

Those words were weird, but considering their meaning and Leon's goal that he had dreamed of many times but had forgotten about it due to the circumstances made him think of a few hypotheses… Regardless, perhaps that dream would give Leon some insight and the opportunity to chase that dream still.

The dream continued, and Leon managed to replace Hector a few times. It was only obvious, but he had changed to the point that he could barely listen to Maya. She asked him to come back many times, but he ignored her all those times. Until eventually, no one saw Hector anymore. That Leon concluded that he had died, doing what or why that he couldn't tell.

The fighting for survival lasted for seven hundred years. That Leon and the few friends he had managed to survive until the planet reached the fifth stage of the assimilation. Although that wasn't unexpected, Yuki and Makoto didn't appear in those dreams a single time. Not only that, Leon was supposed to have met Ilyana, but he didn't… and then they returned… the dragons. As if those beasts weren't troublesome enough, the lower-class harvesters also came to Earth and used it as their playground.

That Leon was powerful enough to drop fifty meters long meteor on his enemies, but his spells didn't do a thing against the harvesters and dragons. Gisela could split mountains with a swing of her sword, but she couldn't block a single attack of the harvesters. Maya could fly fast around the globe in a couple of seconds, but the dragons could easily block her attacks… after coming this far and obtained such power, only to be easily crushed by his enemies, only left them with a single thing. Utter and total despair.

Without any other choice, that Leon, Gisela, and Maya were forced to leave the planets. As the sole survivors of their group, they were forced to do so. However, not even the right to escape was given to them. The harvesters chase them in several planets for weeks. Fighting back wasn't an option, so the inevitable happened… Gisela and Maya died, and that Leon was the sole survivor… perhaps of the whole human race.

"I guess this guy wasn't that lucky…" Leon said and then sighed. "To think even this alternate version of myself would have to endure this…"

It was like a sickening joke of destiny, but if it was, no one was laughing. As one would expect from someone who had fight monsters his whole life, that Leon swore revenge on all monsters and the harvesters, they took everything away from him, and Leon would take their lives in exchange for it. However, that Leon was fully aware that he was weak and couldn't even take down a single dragon on the fifth stage of assimilation… he needed more power, and to obtain it, Leon would have to train a lot.

"Well, at the very least, this alternate version of myself has the guts to face the odds," Leon said. "I guess this is the time for another fast forward…"

As Leon had expected, time began to pass faster on that movie. While he was trying to escape from the harvesters, that Leon traveled from planet to planet and studied everything he found. Ancient registers about magic, runes, even monsters' skills…
