296 Chapter 295
Leon couldn\'t help but frown, if dragons could exist, then it was evident that angels existed as well. Despite that, Leon didn\'t know if they could be considered monsters, they indeed weren\'t human beings, but…
"They spawn in dungeons, or did they invade your world like you guys invaded this one?" Leon asked.
"They came through dungeons," Alurelle answered. "Although their main weapons are bows, sword, and lances, their principal weapon is light magic. Most defensive gear can\'t withstand the power of their light magic attacks, but we believe that mithril can since it is made of condensed mana. It will endure their attacks for a while."
Light magic… it probably was considered elemental magic, and Leon knew that most likely, it was a mix of all other elements except for darkness. Leon saw Amanda using the holy bow and shooting light arrows, those could explode demons, probably because of compatibility. However, it wouldn\'t be weird if light magic also has all the attributes of other elements and cause damage like lasers… it was scary to imagine something like that. However, the chances of his mana armor being able to block that kind of magic projectile were high.
"Considering that Mithril won\'t be able to grow like our equipment, then you will have to create armors and weapons with that can be used by us on our giant form," Alurelle explained. "Our first goal will be to recover my planet, and there we will show you that we will do everything in our power to make you reach your own goal."
"You talk as if I\'m going to accept this no matter what…" Leon frowned. "How do you intend to show me that."
"You are not the only one who can use Appraisal," Alurelle said. "We know that you have the power of spirits, so I imagine that you may want more of that. When my planet reached the third stage of assimilation, two spirits awakened. One of them was Gnome, and the other was Volt. They only appeared at that time because the world didn\'t have enough mana. Considering that, we knew that they would give us powerful skills. However, to receive that power, they wanted to test us… we didn\'t have time for that."
"So, you guys killed them…" Leon let out a long sigh. "You guys killed five spirits when by some miracle, you guys found six spirits in your solar system… I\'m quite impressed that any of you still managed to escape."
"Don\'t test my patience, kid," Ivolaer said. "Use your tongue a little more, and you will end up losing it."
"You are quite confident, considering that you abandoned your planet and now is using a weaker race to grow stronger safely," Leon said.
This time Ivolaer was the one who got pissed to the point where he enveloped his arms with electricity. After hearing what Alurelle said, Leon was quite confident that he would endure a few hits of him. In-game terms, all those seven were tanks. They could survive long battles, but without their giant forms, they probably didn\'t have enough power to kill Leon.
"Stop this, Ivolaer," Jertien looked annoyed at him. "The boy is right; we abandoned our world and failed to protect our families and friends. Getting angry won\'t change that. It will only prove the point that we failed pathetically and made bad choices."
"Tsk…" Ivolaer clicked his tongue in annoyance.
"… Back to the topic," Alurelle sighed. "The angels probably made a pact with the spirit of light; that is why they can use light magic. So, we are quite certain that they wouldn\'t attack another Spirit. With our help, you will probably succeed in Volt\'s test, and the power you will obtain from him will be much more impressive than the ones your current have."
Everything was starting to make sense, but in the end, those guys were just tempting Leon with the promise of power. Besides, for how long would he have to work to obtain a means to return to Earth? If Leon didn\'t want to be fooled, he would have to go with those guys to their planet, after all. And to recover not one, but several worlds from the clutches of angels was something beyond insane.
Despite all that, Leon had no other choice. Leon\'s luck was too low for him to even obtain tomes on Miebos, and to make things worse, he didn\'t want to rely on something so uncertain like luck. He would instead work actively to find a way home. One of those ways was to go a world that was on the third stage of assimilation and hope the Alurelle and her friends would obtain a tome that could help Leon in some way or the other… even though that was quite uncertain.
"There is nothing in this world for me… I just want to punch Donan and break his teeth to satisfy my own ego. Darya won\'t even… ah."
There was no point in dwelling on certain things, but Leon couldn\'t help it. Come to think of it, why he was so sure that he could survive those guys attacks? Leon failed so many times that thinking that was insane… even more insane than going to another world where his chances of dying would increase.
"…Even if I wanted to help, it would take far too long to craft equipment of your size," Leon sighed. "I don\'t have nearly enough mana or resources to create them."
"That won\'t be a problem, as long as you use this," Alurelle approached the wall, and then a sword glowing in dark-blue tone appeared.
