Chapter 413

After running for one month only stopping to sleep and eat the leaves that restore his energy, Leon finally noticed one thing, physical training wasn't that efficient as he thought it was. In the beginning, thanks to Haste, Leon could increase his stamina and endurance after running for ninety minutes. However, the more his endurance increased, the less the effects of running decreased. After raising his stamina and endurance by two hundred points, Leon had to run for six hours, even while Haste was active, to increase them again.

"I guess I can compensate that carrying weights to increase the difficulty as I did before, but... it is clear that the system was implemented for the people to make use of the status points to grow strong. Why? I have no idea..."

Leon understood why despite having fought for nine hundred years, Yuki and the others didn't have more mana than him. It was because the effects of regular training would decrease the stronger the body gets. Leon couldn't help but wonder why he didn't realize that after seeing the warriors from Miebos and the harvesters. Hammath said they could increase his stamina quite fast, but it was probably because he trained more while fighting against monsters than properly running or swinging his weapon.

"This is so stupid... imagine how much stamina would have if they could increase their stamina every day for nine centuries... a human being would have a monstrous three hundred million points of stamina. This is just insane... Regardless, I guess I will have to put some points into stamina and health from now on. I already am back to Earth, so I don't have to worry about my mana pool anymore."

Leon also doesn't have to worry about his family and friends anymore; they are alive but forgot him, so he was feeling less and less human. Leon had been born on Earth, but there was nothing there for him anymore. Besides, he wouldn't reach his current goal by staying nearby.

"Even though stamina and endurance aren't increasing fast enough, other skills are... I have to train here for a while since I don't want to rely on tools anymore, I don't have much choice. Obtaining status is relatively easy by facing more powerful monsters, but if I go to another dungeon, I won't make good use of time dilation."

Besides, it would be a waste leave now after creating the environment to train for two months. Regardless, Leon had to look for fragments of spirits, but in order to do that and not lose his plants, he had to secure the area.

Leon had no idea how or what speed the ogres could reproduce, nor did he have any interest in it. So, he did the only thing he could really do... he hunted them down without remorse.

In the end, it took Leon two weeks to explore all that world... Once again, he found no signs of fragments of spirits. But since he was making good use of time dilation, that wasn't much of a problem.

"Alchemy is making the liquids I create more potent... but considering how much mana I have, it isn't enough. If I didn't find better plants until now, I doubt that I will find it in the future. The only option is to find a way to improve things with what I have..."

Using less water to create the magic liquids wouldn't solve the problem, the powder produced by smashing the leaves wouldn't be dissolved, after all. Leon also doubted that just mixing all the three types of liquid would improve anything.

"Since I don't have to drink the liquid... I guess I can mix it with all kinds of things... like monster's blood."

Surprisingly, Leon didn't hesitate to do that. His common sense was slowly falling apart now that he was just a relic of the past, forgotten by his family and friends. He didn't have to worry about his conscience or becoming a vicious monster. He would have to become a vicious monster to fuck up the bastards who messed with him, after all.

It didn't take long before Leon obtained some results. Ogre's blood could increase the effects of mana liquid by ten percent, and the stamina liquid by twenty percent. However, it could increase the effectivity of health liquid by fifty percent... it was very weird that their blood could get mixed with those liquids so easily.

"I guess the effects will vary according to the monster. If they have more stamina, then their blood will be more effective in increasing the effects of the stamina liquid. The same logic will apply to monsters who have more mana... I should have collected the water of the ice skeletons."

Leon could only sigh, but it couldn't be helped.
