While Leon was practicing Mana Eyes, he tried many things to learn Foresight. Considering the requirements of the skill, trying to replicate the skill without Mana Eyes seemed a waste of time. But even if Leon fails, he knew that he could obtain some insight into that skill.
Unfortunately, just increasing the amount of mana wasn't the key. Concentrating on the skill didn't change anything either. Since Mana Eyes was a very objective spell, Leon didn't have many ideas on how to customize it.

Although he could, Leon decided not to focus too much on leveling up Mana Eyes. He had already spent eighteen months working for the sake of Foresight. So, he decided to take things slowly this time.
"I want to understand why Foresight's tome can be bought... It was supposed to be part of Sekundez's power," Leon said. "Maybe if I discover why it doesn't belong to her domain of power, I will find some hint."
Leon started to wonder if he wasn't wasting too much time seeking such crazy abilities and slacking off in his training. The last wave of zombies was difficult, and the fourth one would be even more difficult and will probably last for more time... perhaps one hundred years. Regardless, Leon could forget about Foresight and ignore his training because he still needed a lot of points to have the basic requirements to learn Foresight.
Unless Leon learns a few more tricks really fast, he would be forced to ignore his recovery for a while, which would be troublesome. Because after so long, his health and stamina were about to surpass his recovery. With his rings in their current state, soon, Leon would be able to improve them a little bit. Even though increasing one point of health and stamina every day was enough to make Leon lose twenty pounds.
Although those rings were useful for some gluttons, it wasn't easy to keep them. For example, while wearing the rings, Leon felt like he was being bitten by a tiger non-stop, and he couldn't his fatigue disappearing either. It was like he was in a constant fight where he couldn't use anything aside from his body, and that wasn't something Leon was used to.

"Oh, boy... to think that I would be able to change the environment like this..." Leon frowned while looking around and seeing a grassland.
Although the best option was always to buy tomes, Leon could try to replicate them on his own. It wasn't easy, but he managed to learn spells that not only changed the environment on a larger scale while also increased greatly elemental attacks. That being said, those elemental fields could also cause problems. If Leon fights alongside allies or even his summoned monsters, the fields could make them lose their balance, which was just one of many possible outcomes.
Changing the terrain would be advantageous, even though Leon mostly fights while flying. So, he would have to train those spells, and it would take a long while before they reach the max level, but considering that the level of the field increased or decreased the power of certain elemental attack by one percent per level, it was more than necessary to do so.

Although it wasn't a good idea to use skills that had consumed his health while he was also feeding a ring that was consuming his health with every passing moment, Leon still learned those spells in order to speed up his progress.
While Leon was training those spells, he had another idea. Right now, the only skills he couldn't train were the skills that granted him the power to summon his spirits and the passive skills Light and Darkness Resistance, but now that he had skills like Mind Summoning, he probably could summon monsters that could help him train those passives. Although training those will be easy once he obtains Sekundez's power, Leon wouldn't feel much like training once he leaves that imaginary dimension. So, he decided to summon a Donan's copy and an angel's copy.
Even though Leon had decided not to play with lives, he couldn't care less about the lives of those who caused so many problems to him. There was a possibility that something could go wrong along the way, but Leon was sure that he could deal with the issues Donan and an angel could cause.
