575 Chapter 573 (1/2)

Regardless, the other skills would be useful, but Leon wouldn't focus on them for the time being. Once Donan ended the lessons, his eyes were more dead than before. He was just looking at Leon, waiting for him to cancel the spell.

”... May I ask you a favor?” Donan asked.

”I will do everything in my power to protect her,” Leon replied.

”I don't think you have any use for it, but you will always have my gratitude,” Donan bowed.

Leon canceled the spell, and Donan disappeared. Although he didn't owe any favors despite everything, Leon indeed would do his best to protect Darya. He couldn't tell what happened to her until now, but she was a friend, and she was as important to him as the people he cared about on Earth.

”Well, moving on...” Leon said and then turned around to change his mood. ”It is time for the next experiment.”

To create a replica as powerful as himself, Leon had to spend twenty-five thousand mana points per second. Still, once he noticed that to keep Donan existing, he used less mana. Leon noticed that he could create a copy of himself with a lot less mana. The copy would have to be weaker, but that also meant that Leon could summon monsters from his memories and absorb their minds. Perhaps that would increase his growth speed. But for the time being, Leon decided to summon a copy from the moment he woke up on the island.

”AAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!” Leon's copy screamed in pain while lying on the ground.

”Ah... I forgot to summon a version that wasn't about to die,” Leon frowned.

In the blink of an eye, Leon healed his replica, and the replica looked at him astonished when he saw himself... things were about to get very confusing, so Leon decided to use Sleep and pass some of his memories to his replica. When he wakes up, he would probably understand everything and help Leon.

”Mmm... five hundred mana points are being consumed per second,” Leon said while he was analyzing his replica body. ”It is weird, but I guess instead of the power, the older the creature is, the more mana will be consumed.”

Perhaps the amount of knowledge the summoned creature had also influenced in that. It was hard to be sure... Regardless, when the replica woke up, it understood the situation. Although it was weak since the two Leon's had a massive gap in experience, both of them could feel a link connecting them. After processing everything for a while, the replica looked at Leon.
