Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path 129 Chapter 128

Leon spent the whole night trying and failing numerous times, he couldn't control his mana to leave his body, and he could control it to strengthen his body with Mana Reinforcement. But, he couldn't control the mana of a single part of his body, because he couldn't feel the mana of a single part. He could feel the mana of a leg or an arm when he uses Mana Reinforcement, but only that wasn't enough, and Mana Reinforcement didn't heal wounds.

Regardless, Leon stopped when he noticed Gisela waking up. Leon could imagine how scary it would be to wake up and not seeing anything, so he held her hand.

"Master?" Gisela asked.

"I'm back," Leon said. "How are you feeling?"

"I'm fine. Excuse me; I will make breakfast." Gisela tried to get up.

"Nope, it is fine if you want to exercise a little, but you don't have to do anything else," Leon said. "I'll solve a few things today here, and then I will return to where my sister is, do you want to come with me? The current me can't do it, but I'm trying to find a way to heal your eyes."

"Heal my eyes… is that possible?" Gisela asked.

"Well, there is one way to find out," Leon answered. "Learning that will be convenient for me, and it is also a way to apologize since my actions caused this. I promise you, while you try to obtain the strength to go to your home, I will learn how to heal your eyes, and I won't learn anything else until I succeed."

"… Thank you, master." Gisela showed a weak smile.

"Don't worry about it, we are friends, so it's only obvious." Leon held Gisela's hand tightly.

It has been years since Leon walked holding the hands of a girl; despite that, he didn't feel anything. If anything, he felt like in the past, when he would take Amanda to school. Before doing anything, they ate some pancakes and drank juice in the market, and then they went to the main building. A lot of people recognized him, but they looked away soon after.

"Very different from the time I was a just regular soldier…"

Leon didn't want to feel feared, but being alienated was quite troublesome. Anyway, since Leon destroyed a few floors of the main building, Sarah and Tom were using the building in front of it. Before going there, he created a massive steel sword. It was fifteen meters long and five wide, Leon made that just to scare the troublemakers, the spear's steel was rather thin so that it couldn't be used for combat. Fortunately, Leon and Gisela found Sarah in the lobby of that building.

"I never thought you would come and with Gisela no less," Sarah said.

"She needs some exercise. Anyway, are the copies ready?" Leon asked.

"Yeah… but there are some problems," Sarah said.

"Problems?" Leon frowned.

"Follow me," Sarah said.

The building Sarah was working was pretty big too, but a lot of things had to be done before it could be fully operational. For the time being, they were succeeding in sending troops to protect the city boundaries and clear dungeons, but they were having a hard time registering the data required to pay the soldiers.

After reaching the last floor of that building, they entered an improvised meeting room. There Leon saw Tom reading a few pages and making a complicated expression when he occasionally looked at a certain box.

"Oh, it's you." Tom got up and greeted Leon. "In the end you really did it, you kicked the asses of the directors alone."

"Is that what I think it is?" Leon asked.

"Yes… the data the three directors had about how to create magic items and how to create the new engine of the choppers." Tom crossed his arms. "You were right, those three were doing some shady work, but that isn't everything."

Leon didn't know what he meant by that, so he picked up the papers. There wasn't a single note of how to make the engines, and to create magic items, they had to use another magic item that was inside the box. The papers were just instructions on how to use that relic.

"Is there some chance that they don't register the important information?" Leon asked.

"Yes," Sarah said. "However, considering that I tried to find those who produced the choppers and didn't find single information about them, it looks like the directors did that themselves, or… they received them from someone. We always thought that they had a science division to study how to use and how to create objects that use mana to help our new society. But there is no trace of them."

"I see… I guess they were only the tip of the iceberg." Leon said. "Betty said that she fought alongside William before the Allied Forces were formed, so I will ask her if she noticed someone suspicious approaching him."

"Well, we will try to make some individuals study the engines and the choppers to see if we can replicate them," Sarah said. "What are you going to do with that?"

By that, Sarah meant the relic inside the box. It was another ring that could capture souls from monsters and lock them in items. Unfortunately, with the instructions they had, they could only create cursed rings. So, it was almost useless to Leon.

"You guys can study that too; my goal is to find a way to heal Gisela's eyes," Leon said. "I won't try to learn anything else until she can see again."

"Okay, but I can't promise you anything," Sarah said. "We thought the best chance to figure out how to use that item fully would be with a mage of your caliber, but we will see what we can do."

"Master, please try to study the ring," Gisela said. "Although survivors can find magic items and buy them in the dungeons, it isn't enough. If the master discovers how to produce magic items, you will save many lives."
