In the end, Leon only managed to help his friends for ten minutes. Ilyana appeared again to inform that the harvesters were about to reach Earth. So, Leon canceled Mindscape Transportation for a second then used again, but this time he asked his replica to let his friends rest.

A few moments later, he canceled the spell again. Leon saw his friends before, and they looked like they were about to die, but now they looked quite refreshed, but Yuki and Maya seemed pretty mad for some reason.
"How much time passed here while we were in that dimension?" Yuki asked, visibly annoyed.
"Ten minutes… you can complain later. The harvesters are about to come," Leon said. "Do what you can to organize your troops."
Before anyone could say anything, they disappeared, and Leon was left alone, still suffering from the effects of using Mana Magnetism with that much power. His ears were ringing, and even though the pain decreased, it was barely bearable.
"What is the plan this time?" Leon said while tried to endure those uncomfortable feelings.
"We are talking about the future of your planet," Ilyana appeared again. "You decide what we should do."
In the end, Ilyana and Leon were alike in that aspect. They didn't want to take responsibility for some things, and that was why they would let others take responsibility for their actions after helping them for a while.
"Sekundez, how did things proceed during the training?" Leon asked.
"Their elemental resistances and immunities reached the level man," Sekundez replied. "As for their elemental absorptions, it only reached level seven hundred."
"I see… you guys must have worked quite hard, huh?" Leon frowned. "My replica didn't level up several elemental spells, after all."
"When spirits do things, they do it seriously," Sekundez added. "Although those humans aren't related to us, they are important to you, and since our existence is connected to you, their fate could make things different for us. So, it couldn't be helped that we tried hard to increase their survivability."
"What a roundabout way to say that you also care about them," Efreet frowned.
"Well… Sekundez is always trying to play cool, after all," Undine added.
Although it wasn't time for that, Leon laughed quite a bit. However, he soon became serious to think about the things he could and should do. The enemies' level was too high this time… even if the training helped his friends a little bit, things wouldn't solve itself that easily. The enemies didn't plan to decrease the Earth's forces by using summoning creatures, so Leon had to make sure as many humans as possible will survive that battle.
"I will take care of the Netro, and I would be grateful if you help my friends preventing casualties as much as possible," Leon said.
"… What part of that you are not ready you didn't understand?" Ilyana asked after a long sigh. "The enemy this time isn't a coward who uses cheap tricks to overpower his opponents. The opponent has the strength of one thousand dragons, and don't fool yourself by thinking that you can outsmart him. Netro had thousands of years of battle experience. The last thing he will do is underestimate you."
"I wasn't planning to outsmart him… I just thought that it might be possible to defeat him with the power of friendship," Leon shrugged. "Anyway, at this point in time, we don't have more room to take things slowly. We already in the late game, and it is clear that I don't have the power to face the big shots yet… So, I have to use that chance to obtain the power necessary."
Ilyana sighed again because she knew that Leon had a point. As expected, solving things herself wouldn't actually help all that much. Even if she defeats Netro, others will come eventually, and Leon wouldn't be of any help to defeat them.
"Don't get the wrong idea here, but I don't have any intention of letting you die…" Ilyana said, showing the tension in her eyes. "I spent too much time and resources on you to let you die here. If you are about to die, even if your friends were dying as well, I will leave them behind and save you."
"Well… then I can't let Netro push me that far," Leon shrugged.
Although it was kind of surprising for Ilyana to say something like that, Leon didn't let that get to his head. He didn't have time for that, anyway.
