Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path

While Leon was creating the mimics, he thought of new spells. Unfortunately, Leon was the type of guy who could only assume that making more powerful attacks was the best solution. That worked pretty well to create Area of Effect spells, but it was bad because he couldn't learn as fast as he wanted some more delicate spells.

Using those skills with a single thought, Leon could envelop the area around him with the elements he wanted to use. Those skills could even amplify and decrease the power of certain spells within its radius, and that was quite surprising since Leon just thought and practiced a spell that could decimate all enemies that may approach him. Regardless, Leon spent a few weeks training those spells, but he was out of ideas again.

"I have two options... buy other tomes or level up the skills I already have."

It was pretty early to run out of ideas for offensive spells. Just one year had passed inside that dimension, after all. Leon recalled the months he spent inside the galactic snake. When he was there, he had the idea to copy some moves and skills he saw in games. Although it was pretty crazy, he learned a few skills. So, Leon decided to try to replicate some of those.

"Let's see... if I combine Fire Armor, a jump, and an uppercut..."

Leon used his skill and jumped while trying to perform an uppercut, but as expected, he didn't receive any notification. Maybe it was because he used the spell instead of trying to cover only his arm on fire, or perhaps it was because his posture sucked... Either way, Leon tried it for several hours until he finally obtained the notification he wanted.

Congratulations! You have learned the skill: Rising Fire Dragon Uppercut.

Cost: 100 mana and stamina

You obtained 01 status points.

"What a long name for an offensive skill... Well, it is cool, and it is pretty useful as well." Leon smirked while he tried the skill several times.

Putting the name aside and the fact Leon couldn't use Multi-Conjuration using physical skills, Leon had a lot of fun practicing that skill. It worked even in mid-air, so Leon could rise toward the sky until he runs out of mana and stamina. It could be used to fool an enemy and make them think he can't fly, but it sounded a bit inefficient since a lot of mana and stamina would be used. Regardless, while Leon practiced Rising Fire Dragon Uppercut, he also thought about the next skill he should learn. There was another video-game move he wanted to try but that one would be more difficult.

"This one defies gravity to some extent. So, the best way to replicate would be using Telekinesis or Gravity... but I can't use those directly," Leon said.

Instead of using magic, Leon just used his physical skill, and on the first try, he actually succeeded. By running as fast as possible and then leaping while aiming to hit the head of an imaginary opponent with a single kick, Leon learned one famous skill.

Congratulations! You have learned the skill: Flying Dragon Kick.

Cost: 50 stamina

You obtained 01 status points.

"Not bad... the cost isn't that high, too," Leon nodded to himself.

Although some momentum was necessary to activate the skill, as usual, it was pretty fun to use physical skills like that. Still, Leon had to stop his practice after a few days because a new enemy appeared, and Leon didn't have finished the mithril statue that had the shape of a killer bee.

"Woah... they can suck blood. What a cliched monster." Leon frowned.

Bloody Bats were essentially like the average bat, but they were red and also five times bigger. He didn't recall seeing that kind of monster on Earth, but then again, he didn't goblins and killer bees either. Regardless, Those creatures didn't pose a threat against the level three hundred mimics.

"Mmm... there is no Night Vision in the tomes of Ilyana's vault," Leon rubbed his chin. "Did she forget or passive skills can't be learned by using tomes?"

Leon fought for countless times at night, and he didn't learn that skill, so it was evident that there was a trigger somewhere to learn it. Although Mana Dominion was all-purpose, every single skill that could help Leon to become stronger was more than welcome. Well, almost.

Congratulations! You have learned the skill: Night Vision.

You obtained 01 status points.

It took a few days, but since Leon wasn't in a hurry, everything went smoothly, and he learned that passive skill. Although there was no cost, the effects of the skill were quite meager. Leon would have to use it for quite a while before it becomes really useful at night.

"The fact that I only can train at night is also a problem..." Leon analyzed the changes after the skill leveled up ten times. "Oh, well... I can't always have everything I want."

Although that was a problem, Leon didn't sleep every single night. So, that was just a minor nuisance.
