"Well, since I didn't receive the notification of learning the Dempsey roll after this while, it is clear that I won't receive it even if I practice it for hundreds of years," Leon said. "It is time to return to my magical training."

"Learning Poison Generation was the right choice," Leon nodded to himself. "It isn't as efficient as Poison Creation, but I guess it doesn't exist since I didn't find it yet. Anyway, with this type of skill, I can learn many others with relative ease. So, I guess I should focus on learning similar skills."
Although Leon concluded that, he was decided to learn Omnilingualism. Even if they were monsters that had been created by himself of by the imaginary space Sekundez's created, Leon wanted to hear or at least feel some voices. Even if he had a sweet voice, Leon would feel tired of hearing only his voice and thoughts for over a decade.
Regardless, Leon was also tempted to learn Mind Summoning, and if he doesn't keep his feelings in check, it will take a while before Leon learns anything using a tome. Although Leon some idea of spells, those were only based on the knowledge he had of tabletop games. They weren't as simple as just giving the shape of energy, changing its elemental properties, and make it fly toward a target. So, Leon had no idea how to replicate them. Thanks to that, Leon was slowly getting less stubborn about the idea of creating a second mind inside his body. That would help him think faster and develop new spells quite frequently.
"It still sounds like a bad idea..." Leon said. "I can customize the memories of that split personality, but would be that even be necessary? As long as it has my memories, it still would be me. I don't know why I keep thinking that such skill would only grant me the chance to create an evil alter ego."
Leon didn't have confidence in his mentality, but it was only acceptable that he could feel that way. Leon made many mistakes in the past, and some of his mistakes indirectly caused some deaths. Although it wasn't that bad of an idea and it would only solve the problem for a while, Leon decided to check his memories after the plane crash. He wouldn't be able to use his senses and feel the difference in the monsters' mana, but he could have some ideas of spells by recalling those memories.
Congratulations! You have learned the skill: Pierce.
Cost: 10 stamina

It didn't take long before Leon could learn a new skill. Pierce was a relatively simple skill, and Leon saw Hammath using it many times. Although Leon felt satisfied that his idea was working surprisingly well, he also started to wonder how things were on that planet. Hopefully, Darya was still leading everyone. Everything was fine... but it was hard to be sure since the people there lost decades being too lax.

"Well, well... I thought it would be difficult creating ink," Leon frowned. "Thanks to Transmute, it isn't. Anyway, it is just the lower-tier version of Blind, but it will be useful to obtain status points."
At first, Leon had some difficulties learning skills like Adhesive Touch and Steel Tentacle, but once again, Transmute helped him. By changing the properties of the humidity around his hand, Leon learned Adhesive Touch... even though he was sure that he would never use that in battle. As for Steel Tentacle, Leon didn't have tentacles, but he could transform into animals that had. Besides, he just had to strengthen the mana around his arms to have a similar effect.
Much for Leon's surprise, he learned a lot more skills than he thought he would. Things could have progressed a lot faster if his spirits were with him, but Leon managed to learn several types of skills he thought only spirits could grant.

"Unlike the elemental armors, this kind of spell doesn't damage me since it is just an aura that envelops my body, not real fire or thunder," Leon rubbed his chin. "Still, the cost is the same, and it doesn't increase my status... I guess it can't be helped."
Still, Leon was satisfied with the result of his training, he obtained more skills, and that meant more status points. Regardless, Leon decided to put aside his recent achievements in order to practice some variations and the spells he still could learn by reading his memories. Some skills in the past seemed impossible to learn, but that kind of challenge would only make Leon more eager to insist on learning it.
