Chapter 531

It took a while for Leon to recover for that low blow. He clearly wasn't a sex beast and until now managed to endure the hardships... but after confirming that he had been plagued by a cosmic disease that couldn't be cured by magic, Leon couldn't help but feel depressed for a few days.

"Well, it isn't like Eromancy would have much use here..." Leon said while showing a self-deprecating smile.

Leon had a lot of time to waste, but he was tired of staying depressed like that. Instead of just moping around without doing anything, Leon decided to mop around while leveling up some skills.

"One year passed since I came to this place, but it felt like a lot less... I guess what I heard before was right, the older you get, the faster time seems to pass."

Instead of marking trees, Leon was marking the days he was on the island behind the statues of mithril he created. Although the statues of mithril weren't that big, it was enough for Leon to mark every single day the monsters appeared. Still, Leon was beginning to worry if that island was large enough for that task. Sekundez said that Leon would have to endure that for thousands of years until now, only small monsters appeared so far, but they were increasing in size as they were increasing in power. Although his golems still were able to hold them back, eventually, Leon would have to fight for himself. Before that happens, he had to obtain as many spells as possible.

"I should start to think more seriously about new offensive spells and abilities, soon my coins will end, and I can't rely on Ilyana's vault forever, and I definitely can't let Lion's Pride decrease in level again."

Although it was hard, finding new, summon tomes and think of new offensive spells were the only difficult things Leon had to do. Using magic was like breathing to him, so it wasn't tiring. Training his body wasn't that efficient, but it was easier than keep using his brain trying to be creative. Regardless, Leon continued to help his golems to level up until he had a new idea of a spell. Although the scope and damage caused by his new spell were impressive, he soon learned thanks to the mana fruit and his high intelligence and control.

By making small darts of fire fall over a certain area, Leon received that notification. Even though the power behind it wasn't like Fire Meteor, the spell had a lot of potentials to decimate several enemies at the same time. It also didn't take long for Leon to learn the other versions of that kind of attack. He just had to change the element used.

"Although it is cool and all to make rain fire and lightning, the cost of those skills is insane and keeps increasing... Fortunately, there are numerous ways to restore my mana. Otherwise, it would be a massive pain the ass to train such spells."

For the time being, everything was fine thanks to Leon's recovery, mana fruit, and his ring that granted him Zen at the max level, but eventually, not even all that would be enough. Although it wasn't his forte, Leon would have to train his physical skills even more frequently. However, since Ilyana was a wizard, she didn't put many tomes that taught that insider her vault, and Leon wasn't even less creative to think of new physical skills.

Around the time Leon's water golems reached the level max, the killer bees were level seven hundred. It would be tough, but he had no other choice but to make his new level one summons suffer a little.

"Yep, they aren't all that great... but they do have some magic potential," Leon nodded to himself.

Although the cost to summon them was higher than the golems, Leon quickly increased the population of mimics while he absorbed the mana of them golems. The killer bees had the power to kill Leon's monsters in a single strike, but while they could kill ten mimics per minute, Leon could create the double of that. In the end, thanks to the killer bees, Leon had to stay focused on the task of creating mimics for a long period of time, but that only helped him to level up the skill even faster.
