Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path
203 Chapter 202
It wasn't the best weapon he could make, but Leon managed to create a single steel staff while the guy was hesitating between attack and protecting his friend. Still, it was heavy and thick. Leon was pretty sure he would be able to knock that guy down before the woman wakes up and restore her body.
Leon fired the steel staff, and the man blocked it. However, Leon saw that the impact damaged his hands. Leon's staff never landed on the man's body, even though two layers of gravity were slowing him down, he still was fast enough to block all Leon's attack.
"Well… I wonder for how long you will be able to do it."
While Leon was trying to knock that guy down with a single steel staff, he was creating another. The man clenched his teeth when he noticed that Leon saw in his eyes that he already accepted defeat. Leo was just trying to buy time in order to let his friend wake up and ran away. When Leon noticed that, he created earth and covered her whole body from the neck until her feet and then turned it into steel. Since they were physically stronger, perhaps three or four times stronger than William, Leon decided to make the layer of steel very thick.
That guy became enraged when he saw that, by his point of view, it looked like Leon had made his friend into a hostage. The man who fought even though the bones of his hands were all broken, dropped his weapon, and raised his arms. He surrendered, despite that, he looked at Leon as if he had insulted his ancestral.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Leon frowned. "Did you forget that you tried to kill me first?"
"You invaded our lands and still frown when we attack?" The man asked. "Not only that, to use a hostage in the middle of a battle… you are a coward."
"You are quite stupid… insulting the guy who can kill you with a single thought." Leon said. "Still… to think that we speak the same language."
"… We don't speak the same language…" The man frowned. "You are not from the world above, are you?"
"Who knows… maybe there is a ladder that connects this world and my world." Leon said. "Anyway, if you give me the answers I want, I will forgive you for trying to kill me. But first, let's make sure you won't try to do anything funny."
Leon covered that guy's body with steel, he noticed that he tried to increase his muscles in order to let some room for his body to move, but Leon wasn't so naïve to let him do that.
"My name is Leon, nice to meet you," Leon said. "I would shake your hand your if you weren't so stuck… so let's skip the pleasantries. If we don't speak the same language, how can we understand each other?"
"… Because of the will of worlds want that." The big man said. "After obtaining the power to receive and produce mana, the worlds grants its inhabitants the power to communicate with inhabitants of other worlds. If you don't know that, then that means you came from a world that just started to produce mana, right?"
"Sorry, pal," Leon said. "I'm the one asking the questions here if you don't want to stay like that for more time than the necessary, don't ask questions."
Although Leon defeated those two, he was at a disadvantaged position in the overall situation. Not all battles had to be won with brute strength alone, so since those two were from a world that hat a lot more experience dealing with mana, the chances of them having a way to defeat people like Leon using some tricks were quite high.
"Will of the worlds, huh." Leon frowned. "Why the heck the will of the worlds didn't let me understand Japanese? Anyway… how long ago this planet got invaded by monsters? You guys and the guys from above are from different species?"
"The monsters appeared seventy-two years ago…" The big guy answered. "We are from the same species; we are different because we evolved following different paths."
"Oh, I see now…" Leon nodded. "They are short and thin because they focused on using magic alone. While you guys are big and strong because you guys decided to follow the path of using brute strength alone… what a waste, why don't you learn both?"
"Some tried to follow both paths… but those on the top only wanted to use magic to survive and improve their society." The big guy explained. "People like us who didn't have much talent in using magic and people who tried to follow both paths got ostracized by the vast majority who decided to use mana alone."
"An advanced world where the leaders don't want to let the people decide things for themselves…" Leon sighed. "I guess this world isn't that advanced… Anyway, your skin is dark blue because your bodies adapted to the poison, or you guys did a customized your body or something?"
"We let our bodies evolved naturally, thanks to that the poison doesn't affect us any longer." The big guy explained. "But the people above inserted that stone on their heads using the medicine, all to obtain more power."
"Is that so… they don't look that strong to me." Leon frowned.
"You probably just met civilians and the police force." The big guy said. "We are still at war against monsters, and the real soldiers are several times stronger than the weaklings above us."
Leon frowned when he heard that. He had had a hard time trying to escape from them... If he runs into those that are fighting on the front lines, he would have an even harder time... If that was the case, why didn't the lizard transport Leon near them?
