217 Chapter 216 (1/2)

”Hammath, Ava… return to the village… now.” Gurr ordered.

”Grandfather, this isn't what you are thinking,” Hammath said. ”We followed Leon. He didn't make us enter the dungeon. He ordered us to stay behind.”

”I didn't come here because of that.” Gurr declared. ”I came here because it looks like he doesn't care about the problems he may cause and keep on using mana indiscriminately.”

”I see…” Leon closed his eyes and massaged his eyebrows. ”We can't help each other, but it looks like you don't have any intention of overlooking my actions either. You don't look that old, but I guess your brain aged… it doesn't make any difference if I use mana or not. Many in the city above have even more mana than me, and they keep using… why don't you try to stop them?”

”I can't stop them; they are too numerous…” Gurr said. ”But I can stop you and delay the evolution process of this world. If I delay it, even for a single minute, I'm fine with it.”

”…Whatever,” Leon sighed. ”This will be a good session of training… but remember, I didn't start the fight. So, don't complain later about what will happen to your body once you die… I will give you a hint about what will happen. You will become an undead minion…”

”Despicable… you even have that kind of spell.” Gurr looked at Leon, disgusted.

Gurr still wanted to fight, even after hearing that, then there was no reason to keep talking. So, Leon started to create his sharpest and most powerful Steel Spear. He wondered what would be the best method, turn Gurr into a zombie, or Seal his soul into one of his weapons.

”… I guess, soon, I will become a truly disgusting person.”

If Leon was considering doing that so a living being that closely resembled a human, he noticed that he was on a dangerous path… Still, he couldn't afford to spare the life of someone who wanted to kill him.

Leon wanted to create five spears to deal with those five warriors, but before he could even finish the first, Gurr attacked. As expected, the difference in years of fighting was too big… Leon didn't even see Gurr moving. He just saw him hitting against Mana Shield. Gurr's spear was blocked before it could even get close to Leon, but his target was clear… it was Leon's heart. A single attack made Leon lose fifty points of his mana, and it decreased a little more when the others attacked with their respective weapons, which were two swords and two hammers.

”Mana Shield…”Gurr said, annoyed.

”So you do know… I guess I will play with you for a while.” Leon said.

Leon still had some mana potions inside his magic box, so he decided to make good use of them. Gurr and his friends were, without a doubt, the most powerful enemy Leon had ever fought. He couldn't even see him moving, after all. So, to win, Leon would have to use his brain. Besides, staying like that for a while wasn't a bad idea.
