Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path

Since Leon didn't lose much time, he returned quite soon, and Ilyana was back to her cross-legged position. However, she wasn't creating elementals anymore. Instead, she was summoning Ghost-Swords... which was weird since Ilyana said that she didn't have any intention of creating living creatures.

"You have come at a good time," Ilyana said. "Kill those creatures. Their level is too low, and the inhabitants may frown if they look at them and notice how weak they are."

"What happened to the elementals?" Leon asked. "I also thought you wouldn't create living creatures."

"They aren't living beings," Ilyana frowned. "Ghost-Swords are born when the swords absorb too much monster blood, and their wielders die full of regrets. They aren't much different from my elementals."

"How can you create such monsters without regrets and the monster's blood?" Leon asked.

"Mana can create anything, as long as you have a clear understanding of that thing you want to create," Ilyana said. "About the elementals... that skill already reached level max, so I decided to train others."

"How come the skill reached the level max, but the elementals only were level three hundred?" Leon frowned again.

"I can decrease the power of the things I create..." Ilyana looked at Leon as if he just said something pretty stupid. "Can't you choose how much heavy your mithril spears were?"

Leon nodded, but he didn't feel like creating a weapon, and a monster was the same thing. He also couldn't even imagine how mana could emulate the feelings of regret of someone... Regardless, even though Ilyana could control the level of the monsters she created, she couldn't just raise their levels if the level of the summoning skill was low.

"Just make your monsters move toward my plantation," Leon said. "I will ask my spirits to attack your creatures."

"All right," Ilyana said.

That would be a good chance for Leon to train his spirits and even think while he harvests the blue angel leaves and creates the mana liquid.

"Sylph, Celsius, Efreet, Gnome, Undine, Volt." Leon summoned them and then started to harvester the blue angel leaves. "You guys can attack Ilyana's ghost swords as you see fit."

"Hell yeah!" Efreet said, on fire. "It is time for a death battle!"historical

"We should get away from each other, or our attacks will nullify each other," Celsius said.

Ilyana just started to practice that summoning skill for a few hours, but a horde of those monsters was already moving toward Leon and his spirits. While Leon was trying to recover his mana faster than his spirits were spending, things got really noisy since they got stronger, and their spells could cause a lot of damage in a large area.

"Mmm... now that I think about it, I don't have to harvester those leaves. I can just absorb the mana of the ghost-swords."

Although that was true, when he looked at the ruckus his spirits were causing, Leon understood he wouldn't escape from their massive Area of Effect spells unscathed. If he receives damage, he wouldn't be able to focus and use Mana Absorption, so it was better not to do that.

Regardless, even though Leon was working fast, he couldn't recover his mana faster than six spirits could consume. Thanks to that, the horde of ghost-swords didn't stop coming... in fact, they were waiting in line for their turn to be destroyed.

"Although it is convenient to use my spirits to fight for me since they can take their own actions, I can't level up skills like Fire Creation or transformation. Because I'm not the one creating it... Fortunately, skills like Geomancy and Cryomancy can level up."

The logic behind it was weird, but it didn't take long before Leon could understand it. It was because part of the spirits' bodies was made of that element, and since Leon's mana was being used to keep them materialized, it made sense that Pyromancy could level up while Efreet was summoned. It would be more efficient if they don't use too much mana when they attack, but Leon knew that it was impossible that things could be so convenient.

"It doesn't look like Ilyana has any intention of stop sending her minions... fortunately, I'm also obtaining some coins, then this can be counted like a.... wait a minute, why I can obtain coins?"

"Didn't you know? "Celsius asked, surprised. "You can obtain coins from every creature that you kill that has mana. If that creature were created or summoned by someone, the killer would obtain coins, even if the creature doesn't have."

"Although you complain a lot, you always answer his questions, Celsius," Undine smirked.

"What are you trying to imply?" Celsius frowned.

Leon was about to say less talking and more working, but he couldn't say that to his spirits, they weren't his workers, after all. Besides, he was the one who started the conversation. Regardless, that was very strange because it was evident that two summoners could grow a lot stronger, just making their minions fight against each other, and now he discovered they could obtain coins... that system was becoming weirder and weirder.
