Chapter 601

Spatial Manipulation basically distorted the dimensions of certain places inside of some objects. Although it was more accurate to say that Leon just surprised a certain space and sealed inside an item, Leon was pretty sure that the inverse could be done... in case someone gets trapped in a spatial trap.

"The problem is, I don't have much time to do this," Leon said. "The dragons are getting stronger by the day... much faster than me. If I use my mana to create weapons, I can counter that effect, but since I will need a lot of it to leave this place, I will end up putting myself in a dire situation if I fail."

In the end, Leon created a mithril spear that would help him along the way against dragons and that he would absorb to use Spatial Manipulation to its limits. If he fails, he would have a lot of trouble, but not much as if he tries to consume his only mithril weapon.

In order not to find later that his plan was impossible and end up using too much mana and time in something useless, Leon decided to run a test after he created a spear that weighs one thousand kilograms. Even though some concentration was needed in order to increase the scope of such skill, in the end, for the good or the worse, Leon was good at using his mana violently. So, he managed to increase and use in reverse the power of Spatial Manipulation while he also used Mana-Eater to restore his mana.

Leon smirked when he saw those notifications. That was a sign that he was doing things right. Although that was hard to confirm... given that Leon was making the entire area around himself tremble using a non-offensive spell. Increasing the size of a place was to be theoretically impossible. Still, Leon could do that with magic... he was certain that he was doing things right because he could feel the temperature around himself decreasing. His Spatial Manipulation was creating a vacuum, and that was making the temperature decrease.

Unfortunately... Leon would have to use much more mana, and he also would need to concentrate much to achieve the results he wanted. In the end, with that spell, he only managed to increase the dimensions of half of the island, and since he didn't complete what he wanted to do, the skill failed at the end, and everything returned to normal.

"This is definitely the key to leave this place," Leon nodded to himself. "I increased the proportions of this dimension for a brief moment, and I made the island become larger... it felt like was under illusion since everything looked so distorted, but it is probably because I want to destroy this dimension."

In any case, given that Sekundez didn't do anything until maybe she didn't lie that time would pass much faster in that dimension. That would explain why nothing happened while Leon was trying to destroy the dimension.

Regardless, even though it would be minimal, Leon could increase the effectiveness of his actions if he focuses on a single skill. It was dangerous, but he had no other choice but to restore his mana using soul eaters... that means he couldn't create another mithril spear to attack them. Soul eaters don't have any offensive power, and even though Leon could amplify the piercing power by using Gravity and Telekinesis, it wasn't enough to pierce the dragons' flesh, so Leon couldn't use them to directly drain the dragons' mana.

"In the end, the only option is to store my ow mana inside of soul eater," Leon concluded.

Fortunately, even though his corrupt mana trees were at the max level, a single dragon could grant him two mana fruits. The trees still had to have some time to digest the dragons, but considering that Leon summoned thousands of them, the preparations ended after a single day.

The best option would be to slowly level up Spatial Manipulation, but Leon didn't have time or the patience to do that. He wanted to get rid once and for all of his worries. Without holding back, Leon activated Spatial Manipulation and increased its scope to its maximum level. Leon felt dizzy countless times in a single moment due to the mana exhaustion, but the soul eaters restore his own mana at the same pace.

In the blink of an eye and even before the spatial manipulation could reach the boundaries of that dimension, Leon saw cracks appearing in the sky. As expected, he found the way to leave that place. Although he could use Transfer and leave that place just like that, Leon didn't want to risk since he couldn't see anything beyond those cracks. In the end, it was better to finish the job...

Fortunately, at the same pace Spatial Manipulation leveled up, Leon made his skill reach the boundaries of the dimension. In the end, everything around him started to chatter like glass. However, even though that was a good sign, it looked like Leon wouldn't leave that place until he destroys every single part of that dimension. Although it was quite scary to destroy a dimension being an imaginary one or not, Leon endured the goosebumps he felt while he was slowly getting surrounded by the darkness of the void...
