Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path 134 Chapter 133

Leon's muscles were quite sore, so he stretched out only to find Yuki showing a fed-up expression and Betty behind as if she was about to die.

"Did you finally give up?" Yuki asked while frowning. "I'm tired of seeing you here every day."

"Can I stop this? I'm tired of meditating…" Betty moaned

It looked like Betty also meditated for three days, as for Ren, he was a busy person, and he didn't have the nerve to stay like that for three days in Makoto's home.

"We are done here; I believe I completed the first step," Leon said.

"Yeah, right…" Yuki smirked.

"See for yourself." Leon activated Mana Armor.

When Yuki felt the layer of mana around Leon, she couldn't help but frown. Although the result was a bit different, he could use that to feel mana to some extent. However, to reach her level, he would have to make that layer of mana less dense but bigger.

"Is it finally time to go home?" Betty asked.

"Yes, we solved most of our problems," Leon answered. "So, it's time for us to train as much as we can before the next problem arises."

It looked like Magic Armor could absorb physical and magic damage, at the cost of Leon's mana, he wouldn't suffer any wound even if a grenade explodes under his feet. It was very interesting, but it was still inefficient. Besides, if he wanted, he couldn't protect his allies with that skill. The mana shield was possible the long-ranged version of that skill, and Leon was quite certain he would learn it while he tries to expand that layer to feel other people's mana. Just when Leon was about to leave, he heard Yuki's voice coming from behind.

"Hey… if you manage to learn how to heal wounds, I want you to teach me." Yuki said as if it was a matter of fact. "You observed me learn that, so I have the right."

"I don't know if you have the right or anything, but… sure." Leon said.

It wouldn't be simple to teach something that he didn't even learn, but by doing so, he would make Makoto owe him a few favors. Although Leon could do a lot of things by himself, support from allies would save him a lot of time.

Although Leon was hungry and thirsty, he decided to buy just a few things and eat along the way, even though it wasn't that pleasant to eat inside a monster's mouth. However, they at least had to say farewell to Makoto. Surprisingly, he was having his breakfast alone and decided to invite them.

"You certainly are a hard worker, Leon," Makoto said. " I couldn't meditate for three days straight even if my life were on the line."

"It's just a matter of practice, Your Majesty," Leon said. "I want to help a friend, so I want to learn that as soon as possible. Besides, the knowledge of how to heal people will prove useful to humanity. Since your daughter gave me a few pointers, I will teach her once I learn it."

"You have my gratitude," Makoto said.

Although Makoto was the emperor, his breakfast was somewhat standard. Although the taste of everything was superb, he always eats simple things. Fortunately, he was a fan of pancakes, so Leon and Betty had a good time eating with him.

It looked like Ren was busy doing something, so they left without saying goodbye. That being said, they would see each other, probably… so there was no need to worry about such things. On the way back, Betty started a conversation while Leon was trying to expand the Magic Armor.

"Did I already meditate enough?" Betty asked. "How about some practical lessons?"

"… All right, is there some kind of element do you wish to focus on?" Leon asked. "I bet everyone can learn the four basics relatively fast, but it's better to focus on one. Gisela did that, and she learned one spell after training for one month."

"I want to learn fire spells," Betty said.

"Well, you do look like an arsonist, but we aren't in a good place to train fire manipulation," Leon explained. "You already know Earth Manipulation, you should try Water Manipulation now."

It was a bit more complicated than earth, but Betty learned Water Manipulation quite fast. However, she found some difficulties trying to control the wind. So, while she was practicing, Leon resumed his own training. Now that he learned the basics, he just has to be patient that eventually, he would reach the desired level.

Twenty hours later, Leon and Betty were finally back to Las Vegas, and the city was back to its feet. Everything with the exception of the destroyed buildings was back to normal. However…

"Hey, I see a lot of armed individuals…" Betty frowned. "I thought only fifty soldiers survived."

"I guess a few came here looking for someone to teach them magic," Leon answered.

New York had a lot of survivors, but Leon didn't expect that more than one hundred would come. When they arrived at Amanda's home, Leon finally understood what had happened when he asked her for explanations.

"It looks like Sarah and Tom also sent that message to several other cities," Amanda explained. "The survivors from Houston ended up going to all directions, but once they heard that information, they decided to come here. There five hundred soldiers and fifteen hundred regular citizens that wanted to learn magic from you. Most of them are interested in the steel weapons you can make."

Leon frowned when he heard and then he started to regret a little, the problem of shortage of human resources disappeared, but now he had to teach two thousand people magic… He finally found the thing he could do to make the world better.
