YM778.TV 281 Chapter 280
The Earth spirit was called Gnome… Leon imagined that, but it looked like the spirits had the same names of the spirits of games and books. At that point in time, it was a waste of time to dwell on that. In any case, the Gnome of that world was just like Efreet, and a fragment of the original Gnome, and it also was a semi-transparent sphere, but its color was yellow.
Maybe it was because they lived similar lives and origins, but Gnome of that planet was just a chill spirit like Efreet. He had no intention of becoming Leon\'s pet, and he had no intention of leaving that planet either. That being said, Gnome also agreed to give part of his powers to Leon and Darya.

"Gnome of this world is stronger than Efreet… he granted us one more skill," Leon said. "I thought there wasn\'t much difference between Earth and Fire Manipulation and between Pyromancy and Geomancy… but I was wrong."
"Yes, it is much easier to control earth and fire now," Darya nodded. "The elements obey us much faster."
Leon and Darya will have an easier time learning simple spells from now on… the problem was, they didn\'t have time to invest in learning those simple spells since it wouldn\'t help them all that much. Besides, spells like Summon Lesser Fire Spirit were like Haste, they consumed a lot of mana every second. On the good side, they couldn\'t be attacked and could shoot fireballs like a machine-gun. Not only that, but they were also like drones that attacked everything that was considered an enemy.
For the first time, Leon noticed that he was also very greedy for power. He was considering looking for spirits in other worlds, he was pretty sure those would help in the long run. However, finding a world that had spirits was like finding a gold mine… close to impossible. That was even truer considering Leon\'s misfortune.
"I guess our business is over," Darya declared. "What are we going to do now?"
"We still need weapons to increase our Fire and Earth-based spells," Leon answered. "We will look for the monsters that grant us that. After that…"
"Return to the island and level up our new skills," Darya added.
"Yes, smart girl," Leon smirked. "I would give you a cookie if I had one."
"What is a cookie? And don\'t treat me like a kid." Darya hit Leon\'s hand when he tried to pat her head.
Leon\'s plans were progressing well, maybe in a few months, he would have enough power to surprise the harvesters. However, he was aware that he was neglecting one possible scenario… the scene where the soldiers of that world would try to stop him from capturing the harvesters.
"Considering what I know, most likely, my elemental spells will be countered. If I keep leveling up Telekinesis and Spearmanship, I\'m sure I will be able to defeat them with brute strength… the problem is, will I succeed in overpower a group of fifty soldiers or more?"
Leon needed a countermeasure for battles against a large number of enemies. Something that could be used constantly and doesn\'t consume much mana would be preferable. It couldn\'t be an elemental spell either… The problem was, the only skills that didn\'t fit that criteria were Summon Zombie, summon skeletons, and his physical skills.
"I need a new skill, one that can\'t be countered or even noticed… Ah… Mana Bullet!"
Leon wondered why he didn\'t try to learn that before… it was probably because he didn\'t have enough mana to keep training for longer periods of time. It was also because he could only shot five bullets per second, but with Multi-Conjuration, that problem was solved.
"Great, now that I have a clear plan of action, I just have to train for a while… again."
While Leon and Darya were flying back to the purple crystal, he tried to create mana bullets. He still couldn\'t see them, but inside his Mana Dominion, he could feel the shape of everything that had mana, so seeing what he was creating wasn\'t a problem. Usually, Darya would practice with Leon, but she was so tired that she left Leon under control of the earth platform, and she was sleeping using his back as a support.
"I guess it is better than the solid earth..."
Leon left his zombie devourer near the purple crystal, and the creature did a good job killing the others nearby. It was already close to death, but thanks to it. Leon didn\'t have to wake up Darya to approach the purple crystal.
Soon Leon and Darya returned to Miebos, so he started to wonder if it wasn\'t a bad idea to return to their base and look for the monsters to create magic items later. They would have to train their new skills anyway, and it didn\'t matter if Leon and Darya obtain the magic items now or a month later.
However, those thoughts disappeared from Leon\'s mind when he approached the entrance of the dungeon. Thanks to Mana Dominion, he felt the presence of hundreds of soldiers in that world. Leon had the means to defeat them, but among that group, he felt the presence of someone extremely powerful... it was finally time to meet Donan.
