Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path

Although the researchers didn't lower their guard even for a moment, and some of them were even holding their helmets with both hands, little by little, Leon borrowed their helmets. Using Haste, he could easily use Transfer every 0.1 seconds and appear and escape without letting anyone notice him. Even when someone saw Leon, they only saw a strange figure covered in earth. Since everything happened so fast, some of them started to question their mental health...

Before noticing that they couldn't do a thing to stop Leon, the researchers had lost seven of their ten helmets. They finally decided to get the hell out of there even without identifying the cause of the destruction of their turbines, but Leon didn't let them.

"Don't you think you guys are going to escape with my helmets."

,m "Is this a whole new level of finders keepers?" Celsius asked.

Before the researchers could return to their vehicle, Leon borrowed another helmet. Upon noticing what was happening, the soldiers decided to form a circle around the researchers, but they failed in preventing Leon from taking the helmets.

In the end, the half-mithril people returned to their massive spaceship with even fewer things... even though they had come in order to recover their vehicles. Regardless, now that Leon would have to wait for them, he decided to recheck the mithril helmets. It was kind of amazing that some species managed to develop a HUD interface that could show the exact information anyone could see by using the word 'status.'

"Interesting... there is a combat mode that helps the user to fight with the help of an auxiliary aim, there is also the search mode that focuses on finding things even farther away... thank goodness this thing can only track things that have mana. Holy shit... this can analyze the data of someone and even store some samples of mana of some targets to track them? This is insane."

Leon was speechless. That was one hell of a helmet. If using that helmet as like playing a game in an easy mode, the way Leon always played was like playing in the impossible mode while using his forehead to press buttons.

"Battery... battery... here it is, ninety percent?"

Leon tried to transmit his mana to the helmet, and only one thousand mana points had been enough to fill the battery. Leon played with the helmet for quite a while, and he confirmed that he could use it for sixteen hours straight. As expected, it was a very useful and efficient device. Leon couldn't help but wonder why the hell didn't install a program to identify the users of the helmets. Thanks to that, Leon could use helmets like that instead of just using it as a mana source.

"No time to play... I have to level up Sharp Eyes while I can."

Congratulations! The skill Mana Absorption has leveled up.

You obtained 01 status points.

Leon did the same when he found that other human, he concentrated a lot of his mana and put even more in his eyes while he was using Mana Absorption. Thanks to it, his sight improved by leaps and bounds, and he could even with more details the death-star-like spaceship. It wasn't as long as his zombie snake, but it was pretty large. Most likely, hundreds of thousands of half-mithril people lived there.

"Even though the vehicles they use to fly on this planet have a cubic shape, their main spaceship is round, I don't understand, but I guess it doesn't matter."

The same way it was annoying to expand the range of Mana Dominion, Leon felt like his eyes were burning when he forced to increase the capacity of Sharp Eyes. Before that could cause some damage to his brain or eyes, he deactivated the spell.

After that event, only after a few days, new scouts appeared. Since Leon's eyes got better thanks to Sharp Eyes, he noticed that they wouldn't investigate other areas until they secure that one. It was convenient, but it looked like he would have to stay awake for quite a while to deal with them. The half-mithril people took their time to return because they were advising a new plan, and the plan was to get rid at all cost the thing that was bothering them. Leon noticed when thousands of their vehicles landed, and Leon found groups of three warriors and two mages leaving from them.

"I don't know much about guerrilla tactics, but I guess it is time to use it here... at least for the time being. Going all out can wait."

"Aww... but I wanted to fight," Efreet said, dispirited.

"Just hang in there for a while. Once I increase my stock of mithril, I will let you guys rampage to your heart's content."

Leon's plan was to annoy Ilyana by ignoring her orders and making the mithril people leave by showing the difference in power. However, Leon couldn't do that for months. He would give them some time to decided, and if they don't notice that, Leon will kill them. They are soldiers, so they are ready for that. As long as someone steps on the battlefield, someone must be prepared to die.

"I should at least give them some chances since they will increase my stock of mithril and level up my skills. Anyway, this would be much easier if I had some spell like sleep or even curses... I should make a mental note to do that once I finish this job."
