680 Chapter 677 (1/2)

However, in the blink of an eye, without Sylas doing anything. His arm was back to its rightful place and completely healed. Obviously, he did it, but Leon was having a hard time believing in that. Based on his experiments, Sylas would have to spend 70 million mana points to make the time of his arms move in reversal, and he didn't have that.

”It looks like you are quite cherished,” Leon said. ”To think that she would spend so much mana on you even though she is fighting right now.”

”Are you jealous?” Sylas smirked.

”Jealous for being protected in the middle of a fight?” Leon frowned. ”Not really…”

Although Leon didn't have time to talk in the middle of the fight, he needed to buy some time in order to check his friends. As expected, after using Clairvoyance, he confirmed that some weird looking guys attacked all of his friends. Although none of them got heavily wounded, the fights aren't being easy since the opponents have the power of low-ranked harvesters. Much to his surprise, Leon saw Yuki fighting against the rat-people. They seemed much more different than before. The kids have grown up and now had the bodies of people who fought for decades. They also had some impressive mithril weapons.

”I see…” Leon sighed. ”So, you have come to my friends. Let me guess. She said that they are being controlled by someone evil and that you need to kill the leaders of this world to save humanity.”

Sylas didn't say anything. However, he wasn't surprised either. As expected, even though he was resolute in his mission, he had considered that perhaps Yuki, Hector, and Gisela weren't bad people. He probably thought that they just joined the wrong side because they didn't have any other choice. Even if they had ill intentions, it didn't change the fact that they had protected many lives. Sylas's serious expression showed Leon that he had considered all of that. Still, he had made his choice.

”Since you are a human, I thought we could reach the middle ground,” Leon said. ”You are resolute in killing them, so I won't show mercy.”

Leon's words didn't faze Sylas; it was only obvious that they reached a point where they couldn't solve things just by talking. However, given that Earth's population decreased from seven billion to only a few dozen million, Leon felt the need to try it. Too many humans had already died, and even though Sylas was an enemy, their positions could have been the opposite.
