Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path

In the end, Leon soon gave up on that idea. It was too reckless, and he wasn't strong enough to do it. Even if he manages to pull something off, Sekundez's fragment could easily undo time around Leon and make him forget about that. Besides, he couldn't kill another spirit, or he would show to his own spirits he could do such a thing in case things don't go the way he wants.

Leon started to run again, it was clear that eventually, Leon would think about such a stupid thing again, but at least until then, he had to become powerful enough to endure or destroy the spirit of time power. But it looked like that was impossible. He didn't obtain skills like time resistance, after all. Time was something Leon couldn't do anything against it...

"Shit... shit..."

It was only obvious, but on the test of the spirit of the time, Leon felt like he was wasting time. Earth was in a pinch, and Leon wasn't obtaining status points like usual. The speed had decreased a lot since he needed mana to spend more stamina and tire his body faster. But then, Leon recalled that it was a quicker way to make his body reach its limits more quickly and even train his spells at the same time.

"Another crazy idea, huh," Celsius said.

"If you have any better suggestion, I'm all ears," Leon said.

Leon sat down and took a deep breath. He couldn't believe that he was about to harm his own body to reach a near-death stage. Obviously, he would heal his body before his life is in danger, but the damage caused would be faster than when he just runs at his top speed. Without wasting any time, Leon started.

It wasn't the best way to use magic to damage his own body, but Leon used Earth Wall because it was one list of his skills he had to level up to the level one hundred. He created Earth Walls and damaged his limbs... thanks to the nature of that space, the Earth Walls disappeared after a while, but that didn't matter. What did matter was the fact that his body was getting covered in bruises at a scary pace, and he was healing his body even faster? Thanks to that, he collapsed seven days later. He decreased the days he would collapse of exhaustion and lack of nutrients in three days... that had been insane, but Leon, fortunately, wake up on that same world a few hours later, and his body was back to normal.

"Come on... isn't this enough?" Leon shouted. "I know that your power is amazing, but for how long do I have to keep doing this?"

Leon was sure that Sekundez's fragment could hear him, so he shouted for a while. He had to deserve its power, but he couldn't sacrifice months of his life just to obtain his cooperation. His family and friends were probably fighting at that very moment. If a spirit couldn't understand how much they were necessary for Leon, he didn't need their help. Such a heartless and annoying being would only cause more headaches than help.

Unfortunately, there was no way out of that trial. Leon couldn't see a purple crystal or anything like it. Perhaps he could escape using Transfer moving toward other planets, but his eyesight wasn't good enough to find them. Unfortunately, every magical thing that touches the ground of that world disappears, so Leon couldn't be built a telescope either.

"Shit.. shit..." Leon bit his lips and resumed his crazy training.

Little by little, Leon was getting used to the pain and even making his healing skills more efficient. Despite that, the number of days he had to torture himself didn't decrease because his elemental resistances were also leveling up. Leon could take some drastic measures and destroy his limbs and then recover them by using Full-Recover, but he decided not to do that in order to keep his sanity.

"It is okay... I just have to endure this for a few more days."

Leon told himself that imagining that not even the powerful spirit of time would be vicious enough to make Leon experience that kind of terror for more than a dozen times. At the end, when that cycle repeated itself ten times. He heard a single and very calm voice saying one thing...

For a second, Leon thought that he had finally gone mad, but it was clear that that voice didn't belong to him. Despite all that, nothing happened.

"Is that it?" Leon asked. "Are you fucking kidding me?"

If anything, the owner of that voice seemed to be mocking Leon's efforts. Even though Leon was trying to restrain himself, more and more, he felt like killing the spirit of the time. It was okay, Leon told himself, that little bastard was the only fragment in the universe... he could find others and force them to join his side, even if they refuse, it was fine. They would become his strength in one way or the other.
