472 Chapter 470 (1/2)
”Because I also don't fight using my fists all that much, I didn't cause much damage when I punched his neck. He messed up my stance when he activated Anti-Mana Field.”
Leon decided to increase his health and stamina little by little, but he didn't expect such an event would happen so fast. He doubted that it would happen again, but he couldn't just rely on such possibilities. Until now, from the very moment, the monsters appeared, several things that Leon didn't wait for happened. Instead of imagining when that kind of thing may happen, he has to work and prepare himself for it.
”Still, prepare myself without relying on tools or weapons is difficult... that kind of problem will only disappear once I learn how to absorb mana from the ambient. But until then, I have to manage to solve the problems using my body and mana alone.”
It would take a while before Leon learns or discover a way to counter Anti-Mana Field directly, so he decided to experiment with it to find its weakness. First, Leon created an earth sphere and let it float above his hand, and then he activated Anti-Mana Field. At the same time, he lost control over the sphere. Unfortunately, when deactivated Anti-Mana Field, the sphere didn't float again... Leon lost control over the mana inside of it.
”I can't use unless I put my mana inside of it... that means...”
Leon tested that using the Auxiliary Earth Swords, as expected, he lost control over them, but they didn't lose their shape. They fell to the ground, but Leon could control them with his hands.
”It isn't the best weapon... but it is better than my fists.”
Unfortunately, the more that skill leveled up, it only increased the number of swords Leon could summon. It didn't increase their power or durability. That kind of strategy would only work against weak foes. Leon would have to think of another way to counter that spell while he trains. Although his hesitation helped, he ultimately failed because he wasn't strong enough to overpower that other human. He didn't feel like learning new spells the hard way, so he decided to buy some tomes.
