Things got a bit more hectic suddenly, but Leon finally managed to learn the skills he wanted from Sekundez while he also obtained new ones thanks to his replica. Putting his new offensive spells aside, that would only be useful to make Leon gain status points. He immediately tested Temporal Absorption and Temporal Variation. In the end, he confirmed that Temporal Absorption would only become useful once it reaches the level max. At a low level, that skill consumed too much mana to absorb the elemental attacks of dragons.

As for Temporal Variation, each level would make Leon's bodywork ten percent faster. Instead of waiting six hundred seconds to see his energy recover naturally, Leon just had to wait at level one 599.4 seconds. Given the cost of mana, it wasn't that impressive, but eventually, it would be.

Although it was noon when he talked to Maya, Amanda, and Hector, as soon as Leon appeared in the middle of Europe, it was already dark, and Leon could hear the sound of battle in the distance.

"Dragons really are nocturnal creatures…" Leon frowned.

It was weird given that he had fought against hundreds of thousands of dragons, but since Leon fought them in unexpected situations, it couldn't be helped. Regardless, Leon approached but just watched the battle instead of helping. His friends, Gisele, Lennart, and Tom, were fighting alongside hundreds of soldiers and repelling dozens of dragons.

Leon couldn't help but feel proud watching Gisele swinging her massive sword at a speed he barely could see. Every time she swung her sword, big chunks of the dragons' flesh would fly in every direction… Lennart and Tom weren't quite there yet, but they were good at watching and protecting Gisele from the sidelines since he was a bit too wild like Yuki.

In the end, Leon only watched them for one hour. He still had to talk to Yuki and Ren, after all. Besides, it was impossible to know when the other harvesters would come, so he had to use his time wisely. After they cleared that group of dragons, another pack that had thirty or so monsters were approaching. Without wasting time, Leon used Teleport and killed the beast one after the other in mere instants and without even damaging their scales… Leon just created a small Black Hole inside their heads, and that had been more than enough.

Gisela and everyone else frowned when the dragons fell dead, but at least her, Lennart, and Tom understood what had happened when Leon appeared before them.

"You guys improved," Leon said.

"You always appear and disappear so suddenly," Gisela frowned and then sighed. "Well, we improved quite a lot, thanks to you. We are thankful for your help, the number of casualties decreased a lot thanks to the power you gave us, but some individuals are starting to complain about it."

"I suspected that would happen…" Leon shrugged. "Deal with them as you see fit. I'm not their leader."

Gisela studied Leon for a while as if she wanted to ask him something. Probably, she wanted to ask if he had given the same powers to Yuki and Ren. In the end, Gisela decided to stay quiet… Although their rivalry didn't end, it was hardly the time to think about such things.

"Excuse me, you said that Earth would reach the next stage after a few hundred of years, but things happened a lot sooner," Lennart stepped forward. "We have a few theories as to why that happened, but we would like to hear the explanation from you."

"You already know the answer," Leon said. "The corpses of monsters that appeared one year ago were being sent by the guys who want to use the human race. My zombie snake got killed by them, so you can imagine how powerful they are."

"Yes, but… where are they? We only fought dragons so far," Lennart frowned.

"My… partner and I dealt with four of them," Leon hesitated in using Ilyana's name. "Fighting with them here on Earth would be catastrophic, so we made sure to take the battles to somewhere else where we wouldn't be bothered or cause the deaths of bystanders."

It looks like Gisela had become quite the muscle-head as well, since he didn't look that interested in details. Lennart could understand and imagine how they did that, but Tom seemed a bit suspicious of it. It couldn't be helped, if the enemies were as troublesome as Leon made them to be, they were supposed to have noticed some signs of them, but they didn't. To solve that problem, Leon decided to use Skill Bestowal and give them Mindscape Transportation.

"With this skill, you can forcefully transfer the consciousness of most beings to a dimension inside your head," Leon explained. "You can also make time move faster inside that dimension, so you can imagine the possibilities of using this skill and time magic at the same time. However, if you move your consciousness, your body will be vulnerable. Only use that when you have someone trustworthy to watch over your bodies. I guess using this power to help other survivors will help you guys deal with those who are complaining as well."

In the end, Leon thought about telling them how to make spirits evolve, but he gave up on it. He didn't know if his enemies had that kind of knowledge, but they could learn if Leon talks too much. It was a pity, but humans would have to have only lesser spirits.
