Kretos turned back into his Ren form, he did this because it was more important to feel the difference of mana and Spirit Aura using the actual body he was in. Chowan nodded his head in approval as he saw Ren in deep concentration. Leo who was watching at the side went closer to Chowan and spoke to him.
"How long do you think before he learns the basics of Spirit Aura?" Leo looked at Ren who was in a state of enlightenment and asked Chowan his question. He was confused as to how long other people get to learn something like Spirit Aura, since he himself learned it almost instantly.
"Well it's as expected of one of our incarnations, he is a true genius. Based on the rate he is going, it would take him around a week to fully comprehend Spirit Aura. Any normal person would have needed at least a year to comprehend the basics. If I had a student like this back when I was alive, I would've gotten to the end much easier." Chowan answered Leo with a hint of nostalgia on his face.
"I see... That's pretty slow." When Chowan heard Leo's comment he wanted to smack him.
'How is that slow!? Even I needed at least three days to comprehend Spirit Aura! Damn it, I always thought I was the strongest, but when I came here I learned that I wasn't even the strongest version of myself. Those guys from the top one thousand could f*cking destroy planets! While the guys on the top one hundred have battles with Gods for the fun of it. Not to mention the people like this guy, Leo, who are in the top ten, those guys seem to be unbeatable... Yet in the end none of them could win against the ORIGIN...'
While Chowan was complaining in his head, Leo was communicating with the original one. He was worried about leaving Ren's physical body out in the open without anyone defending it.
"Hey, so how about it? Can I take over while this guy is in training? I'm sure you can allow this. It's not like we haven't done this before. Last time we did it for Rei Kuraki, and it was you who took over his body. How about letting me go and take the wheel this time."
Leo was waiting for an answer, and then he heard it.
"Now that's' what I'm talking about!" After saying this Leo saw a bright flash of light, and when he opened his eyes, he was in a different location. This was the outside world, and right now he was controlling the body of the current incarnation.
The first thing Leo did when he took control of Ren's body was assess Ren's body.
"This body is weaker than I expected... Still, I guess I could praise him for actually gaining this kind of power so quickly, with the limitations of this world. Hmm, I can't really get an exact feel of this body. I guess if I'm to protect this body properly I need to test it out. Good thing there is a battle happening nearby, and it's being conducted by someone I know so well."

Leo excited to be out and about headed towards Silika, Hilda, and Lara's location.
...
It has been a few days since they started, but not once have Lara and Hilda been able to hit Silika. The two of them had bruises all over their bodies, while Silika didn't even have a scratch on her. The difference in skill was too much, she was too powerful for Lara and Hilda to handle. Not only was her close combat skills excellent her ability to control mana was near perfection.
"You two have improved a great deal. With your current abilities I guess you won't be too much of a hindrance to my master. If something like the time with the elder lich happens again, you two should be able to escape."
Hilda and Lara knew that Silika was trying to praise them, but it sounded more like an insult. They didn't want this spar to end like this, but their bodies could no longer move, as they lay down exhausted. When Hilda was about to say something, someone interrupted her.
"I guess that's it for today's training. So how about you play with me instead. I still need to figure out some things in using this body, so how about you help me out... What was it again... Oh, right Silika, how about you help me out?" Leo mumbled some parts of what he said.
Silika looked at the person who suddenly appeared, and as expected it was her master Ren, but for some reason she could feel that there wassomething different about him. Even the way he spoke was somehow different. For some reason the current Ren had a familiar yet foreign feeling to him, that Silika couldn't understand.
"If that's what you wish master, then I shall be your sparring partner." Leo hearing Silika's response couldn't help but smile, his iconic vicious smile. Right now they were both using weaker bodies, than what they once had, but still fighting someone of Silika's level excited Leo to no end.
Leo approached the exhausted Hilda, and took her sword from her hand, as well as her spare sword on her waist.
"I'll be borrowing these two for a while. I hope you don't mind." Hilda wanted to say something in response but was too tired to even talk at the moment. Seeing Hilda not responding, Leo took that as a sign that she's allowing him to borrow the swords. Leo then started swinging the two swords and sighed. These things were low grade swords, which look flashy on the outside but held no real substance on the inside. Well it really didn't matter to him.
"Okay then, let's begin." When Leo said this, Silika suddenly disappeared from her spot. Leo then shifted his head to the side and pointed one of his swords behind him. The blade of the scythe that struck was easily evaded with a paper thin margin, and the sword Leo casually stuck out almost hit Silika.
The sudden counter caught Silika by surprise. It was like her master was already aware of what she would do and acted in advance. Silika then continued her attack despite the shock she just received. Yet no matter what angle she attacked, and no matter how much faster she moved, her master seem to be able to predict everything, as he casually dodged everything, while not moving a step.
"Now that warm-up is over. how about we get serious." When Silika heard what her master said, she felt a heavy pressure assault her.
'This isn't mana, this is Spirit Aura! When did master learn how to do this!?' This thought suddenly made her remember what kind of person her master was. He was the reincarnation of that person she loved, and just like that person, her master was a genius of battle. So of course it was possible he could learn Spirit Aura just like that. Seeing her master get excited in battle, made Silika smile underneath her veil.
