Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path

658 Chapter 656



"You… are you not afraid of being eaten alive?" Netro asked.

"If you could do that, you already would have done it," Leon replied.

"Hahaha! As expected of Leon!" Efreet laughed. "I did well in following you. If I knew where a human who was this brave, I would have accepted to become your ally without even fighting."

"Your ability to think of crazy plans always surprises me to no end," Celsius sighed. "If we die here, at least we would die by fighting a worthy opponent."

Although that was troublesome, Leon decided to cancel Mana Barrier and trust his ability to keep his body working properly, using only mana to create everything necessary. He needed to accept those risks because he also had to drain Netro\'s mana, and he couldn\'t do that without touching his body directly.

"If I return to my normal size, you will be crushed like an insect!" Netro shouted. "At least die while fighting!"

"I don\'t care about that, just do it, but I don\'t think you can," Leon replied.

It would be weird if Netro would have that much vitality even if his humanoid form. Just like Leon\'s abilities increased while he was using Dragon Mode, he also imagined that something similar would happen to Netro. In his half-dragon form, he probably wouldn\'t be able to make Leon attract a sun… and as expected, he didn\'t do it. Everything he said was just a bluff.

In the end, Leon had to abandon the idea to drain his mana because the bastard could do that too. Leon wouldn\'t be able to make Netro suffer a little more, but at the very least, he managed to make his life as hard as it could possibly be.

While Leon was waiting for both of them to be damaged by the sun, he activated Mindscape Transportation and Summon Replica. At the same time, he tried to read Netro\'s mind, but he couldn\'t since he was much more powerful than him. So, the only thing Leon could really do was to obtain as much mana as possible by using Mana Magnetism and use it to increase the speed in his mindscape.

By obtaining some status points and allocating them into the mentality, Leon would be able to decrease the pain and increase his chances of survival if Netro was crazier than he had imagined. Still, instead of that, Leon bet on finding the answer as to why the son of a bitch was so confident in his survivability.

Five minutes later, Leon has begun to feel his insides literally burning. The sun finally hit that planet, and both Leon and the dragon were being hit by it. There wasn\'t actually an impact, only the pressure and heat… even though he was using all his defensive spells, it barely nullified all the energy emitted by such a star. While being damaged, Leon lost control over his mindscape, and the spell deactivated. In the blink of an eye, he received sixteen years of memories of his replica trying to evolve Dragon Mode or discover why the dragons were such resilient bastards… unfortunately, he didn\'t discover anything.

Both Leon and Netro began to use Full-Recover every single moment to nullify the pain they were feeling, but that didn\'t end well. Leon couldn\'t even see what was happening anymore because he couldn\'t regenerate his eyes faster than the sun could destroy it, but he could feel it. Netro\'s body, despite being one much stronger, was suffering from the same fate… only one part was still working despite everything properly, it was his heart.

Thanks to that, Leon had an idea… it was risky, but it was the only thing he could do to survive. Eventually, even his brain would stop working, and then he wouldn\'t be able even to use mana. So, he made a copy of all his memories and used Seal… he sealed all of those in his heart, turning it into a magic item. Something like that Leon didn\'t even know if it was possible, but he did it.

After his body begun to evaporate, Leon\'s heart begun to work on its own… producing blood using Transmute, creating oxygen to make the heart continue work, and using mana to protect itself and repair from all the damage. All that while using Mana Magnetism.

It was insane and hard to believe, but Leon managed to make his body turn into something that could survive using mana alone. It was a pity that he couldn\'t feel or think anything about that since he no longer had a brain or even a body… only his heart was working. It was impossible to know for how long he stayed like that, but eventually, his body began to regenerate using mana to construct every cell. Full-Recover could do that, but it took quite a while for his heart to obtain all that mana to create everything that was necessary.

When Leon opened his eyes again, he saw himself in outer space. It looked like. Fortunately, the sun didn\'t explode and created a supernova. If that had happened, he probably would be stuck inside of it forever, trying to regenerate itself. His heart finally stopped working on the automatic when his brain finally recalled everything that had happened.

"I am still me… right?" Leon checked his body, having a hard time confirming that he survived the power of the sun.
