YM778.TV 233 Chapter 232
Creating a thin layer of mana around his body was easy, but moving the same layer at high-speeds wasn\'t. So, Leon was having difficulties learning that spell. Still, he wouldn\'t stop until he obtains it. Leon was sure that Haste wouldn\'t decrease the time he recovers his health, mana, and stamina. But his goal was to increase his perception and speed in order to at least duplicate his training speed. However, he couldn\'t do that all day, and since Darya finally learned her first offensive spells, he decided to change his routine a little.
"The best way to level up skill is by using them in stronger targets," Leon explained. "So, I want you to use your offensive spells on me."
"Why?" Darya frowned.
"I want to train my magic resistances," Leon answered. "While I can protect myself from attacks using Mana Armor and Mana Shield, I can\'t use them forever since they consume my mana."
"I understand the logic, but..." Darya looked away. "We have been doing nothing but practicing magic, and you don\'t let me fight against the golems... is this how you spend your entire days?"
"... This is how I expend the entire day when I have an impossible goal to reach." Leon sighed. "Cross the universe using magic or using brute strength will be much more difficult than invading the city above us. Anyway, it looks like you want to do something else, but exactly you want to do?"
"I don\'t know..." Darya lowered her head.
"You said you wanted to be some kind of explorer, right?" Leon asked. "Exploring your planet will be meaningless since the people here probably explored everything... but you can still explore other worlds through dungeons."
"You are right... but won\'t that be dangerous?" Darya frowned.
"How can you experience something new without exposing himself to some danger?" Leon shook his head. "If you don\'t want to die, but still wants to see new things, there is just one thing for you to do."
"Keep training, right?" Darya forced a smile.
"That\'s right... in worlds were dungeons and monsters exist, those who have power can do pretty much anything," Leon said. "Just don\'t let power become your goal..."
"I understand." Darya nodded.
Darya\'s grandfather probably wasn\'t a person who became influential just because he pursued power, but even if that was the case, he used his granddaughter as a tool... he couldn\'t be considered an evil person, but he couldn\'t be considered good either. With an example like that in her family, Darya probably wouldn\'t follow the wrong path.
Leon deactivated his Mana Shield and then let Darya attack him using Fire Bullets. Although Leon\'s Fire Resistance was level twenty-five and his mentality reached a decent level, he felt an annoying pain on his chest when he got hit. Darya\'s skills didn\'t even reach level five, and she already could cause damage in Leon.
"Well... this is a bit frustrating and annoying, but I need to get used to the pain."
Congratulations! The skill Fire Resistance has leveled up.
You obtained 01 status points.

Faster than Leon imagined, the pain increased, and now he was being forced to heal the wounds almost after every shot... the potential Darya had was terrific, but...
"... I can\'t keep doing this." Darya stopped. "I can\'t keep wounding a... f-friend."
"... What are you? A bullied child who just moved to the neighborhood?" Leon frowned. "Although I feel thankful for the consideration since you would scare me if you liked this, this is necessary. For you and me."
"Why?" Dary asked.
"You have no battle experience, and eventually, you will have to fight for your life... and you can\'t hesitate in taking the life of an enemy," Leon explained. " If you wound someone in the middle of a battle and hesitate while an enemy is suffering, he will use that chance to kill you."
"But still…" Darya hesitated.
"Geez… you have to understand that unless we make some sacrifices, we will never obtain the power we want." Leon sighed. " A certain person on my planet once said: \'the more you sweat in peace, the less you bleed in war.\' Do you get it? If we suffer just a little now, we will suffer much less when the time comes to put our lives at risk."
"Okay… okay." Darya sighed. "Just don\'t blame me if you regret it later."
Although Darya said that, she made sure not to hit Leon\'s vital points. Unlike her magic skills, her accuracy wasn\'t leveling up at an astonishing pace, and Leon sighed in relief. She was talented in magic, but even genius had to work hard.
From that point onward, Leon and Darya spent several hours every day to train her attack and his magic resistances. Although Darya was progressing much faster, Leon didn\'t feel bothered by it.
