383 Chapter 382 (1/2)
”I wonder why I didn't notice this sooner...”
Leon was inside a gigantic creature; it was obvious. However, it was impossible that something alive as large as the solar system could exist... a living being couldn't become that large, it didn't make any sense. So, Leon reached a conclusion... he was inside a living trap.
”I don't know if this is a pet of that bastard or not... but it is clear that this thing can distort the space inside himself. The only thing I can do to leave this place is to explode the whole thing... or find the key to cancel this power.”
The shadowy figure wanted to make Leon stronger... why? It was impossible to find the correct answer, but Leon had a few hypotheses. Maybe the shadowy figure would find another way to control him once their level of power gets close to each other, or he would just kill him to become stronger. Usually, one could only grow stronger fast facing stronger opponents, but the stronger the one gests, the harder it becomes to find anyone who could be worthy of their time... Although it wasn't the best option, it was better to use spells on weak targets than practicing them against nothing.
”I guess that bastard wants to use me as a guinea pig to practice some skill or spell he developed.”
It was insane that a living being could think of another living being just as a tool to get stronger or to reach such a simple goal, However, it wasn't surprising that the sense of morals of someone would deviate after living for thousands of years. Leon could easily imagine humans acting like that if they have thousands of years to nurture their ego. In the past, even though some people weren't actually more powerful, but just rich, some individuals gave no value to other people's lives.
”Since he sent me to this place, does he want to level up a fire-type spell? No... I can't just assume things. Regardless, that bastard wants to kill me, and I can't leave this place. What can I do to solve those problems?”
Leon's best option not to die was to level up Heal and Regeneration in order to save some mana from using Full-Recover. Harming himself was easy, Leon just have to stay near the magma, but would that solve the problem? Wouldn't that just prolong his torment in case he becomes a guinea pig to the shadowy figure? Leon found the answer; he shouldn't search for the exit... he must kill the beast.
”I lack the mana to do that... but if I manage to learn how to absorb mana, then I will have a chance to succeed before that bastard teleports me again.”
Leon created another hideout, but this time he created it very close to the monster's flesh. The creature was so big that even Mana Dominion couldn't recognize its presence since it was much bigger than the effective area of the skill. Despite that, even though Leon's hand was starting to burn, he could feel the mana inside of it.
Leon tried several things, inserting his mana and forcing the mana of the monster to go to his body, envelop his mana on the cell of the creature, and consume it... Leon even tried to use mithril as a catalyst to drain the mana. After trying that for several days, he gave up. The answer wasn't something so simple.
