136 Chapter 135 (1/2)

After one week of lessons, all survivors could manipulate the essential elements... to some extent. After that, they decided to focus on training a single element in order to learn an offensive spell as fast as possible. Usually, that would mean that Leon's workload would increase. However, he already explained the theory dozens of times, so the only thing the survivors could do was to practice while he corrects them.

Leon also progressed after training his mana to cover the area around his body; he finally learned the magic that could protect himself from projectiles and all sorts of attacks with a barrier that also let his friends approach him.

Congratulations! You have learned the skill: Mana Shield.

You obtained 01 status points.

However, since it was a defensive spell, it didn't work to feel the mana of his allies. Leon was sure that he was on the right path, but he still had to let his mana become thinner to the point where barely any energy was spent.

”I still can't see mana, but I can feel my own mana around my body. However, considering that it can protect me, it means that it is too dense...”

Leon had never been good with delicate work; things would be even more difficult since he was dealing with mana, and the only to control it was with his mind. Still, he had no choice but to learn. Although it was a pity not to train the skills he just learned that could save his life one day, Leon made a promise and his mind; he would do everything in his power to learn how to heal severe wounds.

One random day while Leon was trying to make the mana shield thinner, Hector appeared to bother him. Since Gisela was meditating and Maya was sleeping on his arms, he decided not to make much noise.

”Leon, can you teach me an electric attack?” Hector asked.

”Dude... you can't even use an ice spell yet.” Leon frowned. ”Ice is easy to control and to make; thunder isn't it. Do you really think you can learn such a thing?”

”Can't you give some tips like always?” Hector asked.

”... I only know a single electric attack, and it isn't user friendly.” Leon said. ”I eventually will try to learn since the skill to paralyze an enemy is very useful, but for the time being, I decided to learn things that won't hurt me.”

”Can you show me?” Hector asked.
