BXBX NOVEL 297 Chapter 296
Leon finally discovered how Elurelle and her friends managed to use Transfer and come to a far away planet. At first, he had imagined that they had killed and put millions of monsters inside a massive magic circle… but that obviously hadn\'t been the case.
"This is a weapon we obtained after killing an angel," Alurelle said. "We were lucky, without this, none of us would be here. For years, we struggled with how we would be able to return to our world, even though we are not powerful yet, but with you here, we have someone who can use Transfer."
"So, you guys came without knowing if one day you would manage to return…" Leon sighed. "I guess with a weapon like that I will be able to obtain the mana needed to create the things you want… but first, I have to deal with some unfinished business."
"Well, since we are going to work together, we can help you," Alurelle said. "What do you want-"
"Wait… before we decide anything, I want to see you creating a mithril weapon," Jorhorn said. "We need to confirm with our own eyes your skill."
"All right then, give me the sword…" Leon sighed.
Alurelle hesitated a little bit, but she ended up passing Soul Eater to Leon. It looked like the sword was made of Titanium, so it couldn\'t be helped that the sword had only the power to drain mana from the corpse of the targets and didn\'t increase his status even a little bit. Regardless, it looked like they were quite confident in the amount of mana the weapon had at the moment, but Leon managed to create a single weapon… and it wasn\'t that useful to warriors like them.
Mithril Needle
It grants you Agility +90, Dexterity + 40.
Everyone in that room frowned when they looked at the needle, but they opened their mouths widely when they used Appraisal, but they frowned again when they used Appraisal on Leon and the Soul Eater. A lot of mana had been used just to create a single weapon.
"If you guys want something more practical, work hard while I finish my business," Leon said and then left the tower.
It looked like the weapon could store an infinite amount of mana; it only had that ability, after all. Leon bet that he could speed up his training quite a bit with that weapon, but considering the words he heard, Leon decided not to ask for it.
"I need to find a way to counter Appraisal…"
That skill was useful, but being the target of the ability was annoying. Alurelle and friends discovered that Leon could use Transfer, so they became even eager to work with him. Still, despite their sweet words, Leon knew that he couldn\'t trust them.
"Well, considering what they want from me, it won\'t be hard to make some counter-measures…"
Putting aside the problems Leon might face in the future, that conversation gave him quite a few ideas. Considering the weapons and equipment those guys have, Leon could make an even better version of technology products added with the power of mana. The first thing Leon decided to create was a telescope, a massive one that would allow him to find far away planets. Making glass was easy, so that wasn\'t a problem. Even if it takes a while to build a telescope that would help Leon find Earth, it wasn\'t like any he had another choice.
"Regardless… before dreaming big… I have to deal with Donan."
The group of harvesters knew that they would probably need billions of mana points to create equipment for everyone, so they probably wouldn\'t mind if Leon returns only a month later. That being said, Leon wanted to put his plan in action in two weeks.
"They need a lot of mana to fight for several days, so they probably won\'t attack Miebos. I won\'t be able to use them as a distraction… Still, I doubt that the soldiers guarding the barrier will arrive on time to protect Donan. I will just have to deal with regular guards, and they won\'t be a problem. Aside from Donan, the only problem will be…"
Leon sighed and decided not to think about it. He needed to focus in order to take the next step without a somewhat clear conscience. At first, Leon had decided to challenge Donan using only his mithril bracers as equipment. However, since he wouldn\'t be able to attack him and keep Mana Armor activated, he decided to increase his defense a little bit… just in case someone manages to catch him off-guard and hit his back or the back of his head. With the help of monsters\' hide, Leon succeeded in creating a breastplate and a helm. With those, he would be able to protect his vital points, even if he wanted, Leon couldn\'t use more equipment, because he wasn\'t used to wearing several pieces of armor.
Light Mithril Breastplate (+6)
It grants you Endurance +150, Mentality + 120.
Light Mithril Helm (+6)
It grants you Endurance +120, Mentality + 90.
Leon decided to focus on raw defense because it would be impossible to create countermeasures to all elements using only two pieces of gear. Still, that much was enough for Leon… and after two weeks, he headed toward the center of the continent.
