Although Leon's new skills had powerful names, he couldn't help but sigh while looking at those notifications at that point in time. Doing things right for the sake of status points made him lose some time… conceptual magic wouldn't be easy to learn and replicate since he wouldn't be able to use it just by learning a single spell would need a lot of time to understand it. But even with Ilyana's help, things weren't progressing as fast as he wanted.

Leon started to wonder how someone could recover so much without risking herself… She certainly wasn't using Temporal Variation, and Leon couldn't feel any signs on her that she was using Mana Magnetism by increasing the scope of that skill to its limits. The only possibilities remaining were…
