Leon finished another 'training' session with Ilyana wondering if something was wrong with him. Ilyana could even use curses, and even though it wasn't painful being cursed, it was very unpleasant. Still, he didn't feel all that bothered by it... Although he didn't trust her completely, Leon didn't imagine that she would attack him while he was in such a state. If she wanted, she could burn Leon to a crisp, after all.

”I'd better not overthink it... Efreet,” Leon shook his head and then materialized Efreet. ”You are up now, teach me some useful OFFENSIVE spells.”

”... Why did you have to say it like that?” Efreet frowned. ”I'm not Undine. If you become stronger, our duels will become more fun!”

It was refreshing to talk with a spirit that wasn't so troublesome... Although Efreet was noisy, he wasn't as difficult to deal with like Undine... maybe it was because he wasn't that smart, but Leon was thankful for it, anyway.

”You are not a melee fighter, but the first skill that I will teach you will help you surprise your enemies,” Efreet said and then punched the ground, causing an explosion that could be compared to the explosion of a grenade. ”This skill is called Explosive Touch; you create a dense but small sphere of fire in front of your hand and then attack the enemy. You already know Fire Explosive Arrow, so this should be easy for you.”

”Don't you think that spell is a bit weak?” Leon frowned, looking at the small hole on the ground.”

”I adjusted the strength,” Efreet explained. ”If I had used all my strength, I would have destroyed all your plantation. Bahahaha!”

”That is not funny, but it sounds like a powerful spell,” Leon said. ”Why didn't I see you using that before?”

”I tried to use on you,” Efreet laughed. ”But you never let me get too close.”

”Were you trying to kill me?” Leon raised his voice. ”Don't use something so dangerous!”

”It won't be fun unless we fight serious, so it can't be helped,” Efreet laughed again.
