52 Immortality
In the middle of a small Japanese styled courtyard, the figure of Leon could be seen seated in a lotus position. He had a Japanese male kimono on and his eyes were closed.
—crack!!!
In front of him, a wooden dummy made from lumber could be seen visibly cracking gradually.
It was a strange scene, there was no one there and Leon had not attacked it, so why was it still bending in such an unnatural way?
This was the result of the Anaconda Grip spell.
Only Leon could see it, but an ethereal Anaconda had wrapped wrapped around the dummy like a tightly notted rope.
Leon had gotten this spell at the heaven devourer mountain range Hunter camp. But he didn't have the chance to practice it back then. However, on their journey to the royal capital he had enough time to practice it, and his other spells.
He had achieved a great level of success in the wind arrow spell, allowing him to summon about 15 to 17 Wind Snake Arrows simultaneously, and now he had achieved success in the Anaconda Grip spell.
As for the blood rage spell, he had practiced it a little but decided it should only be used as a last ditch effort for anything he had planned.
The spell was too much like Liana's Bloody parade spell. Leon didn't want to go mad from using it. Then there was the spell Leon was most excited about.
The Life devourer spell.
This spell was absolutely spectacular. It held the ability to suck off life energy from any and all living things, this was the dream of every warlock.
Warlocks, regardless of which level, would often reach a talent block, this would force them to refine their bloodline with life-energy treasures to advance. But with this spell? Leon didn't need to go finding any treasures, as long as he could absorb enough life energy, he would be able to constantly improve his bloodline power.
It was a one-way ticket to becoming an extremely powerful Warlock. One could only wonder where the first elder got such a powerful spell.
"Cough cough"
"A job?" Both Arian and Gunta asked simultaneously with a look of confusion on their faces.
What did Leon need a job for?
"Yeah, a job. What? Do you think we can afford to stay in a place like this for more than two months without a job?" Leon asked while flipping through the book in front of him.
The cost of living in Duan city was outrageously high, just the fee for this courtyard cost them 2,000 silver coins. If his estimations were right, that was half the amount of money Gunta still had on him.
This was two months of rent money, not to talk about feeding and other expenses. They had to find a way to make money.
"Oh" Arian nodded in understanding. He wasn't lying, they really couldn't afford to stay in this place for more than two months.
But they could just downgrade into a more affordable room when they needed to, all this luxury was uncalled-for if the main problem was money.
She believed that Leon was just covering up his intentions again.
And of course, she was right.
Leon couldn't tell them his plans because it had to do with something he held dear to his heart. His number one conviction in this life.
Immortality!!
In this part of the world, no one really spoke or thought about Immortality, they only looked for ways to improve their life spans and so on.
Only one kingdom's royal family boasted of having a method to attain Immortality, and this was the Duan royal family.
According to some legends, the royal family had a treasure that increased the life span of whoever was close to it. as long as they stayed close to it. and for those crazy enough to consume it, they would live forever.
This treasure was called
The Purple Heart eternal flower.
