In the end, Leon had to return and learn new \'offensive\' spells. The researchers managed to find some nice non-combat spells, but Leon didn\'t find much use in learning them since his current goal was to defeat the shadowy figure. Although he had to prepare himself for all possible situations that may happen during the battle, he more or less had the means to avoid the worst possible outcome using Sharp Eyes and other spells combined.
Regardless, based on what Leon knew, the chances of the shadowy figure having the means to drain elemental attacks were quite high. Even if that wasn\'t the case, he was pretty sure that using the element shadow, he could nullify those attacks greatly. The same probably couldn\'t apply to Plasma Bullet and the spells of the light element, but Leon still wanted other tricks. Things like Acid Sphere would be nice, but the researchers didn\'t develop anything like it.
"Using one of my magic bows, I can use Poison Arrow. Acid Sphere will also help me... I wanted to learn more spells of that class, that being said, I won\'t have time to level them up."
Leon actually had time; he just didn\'t want to train because it was more efficient learning several easy spells and obtaining some status points by leveling them up. One month has passed since Leon returned to Miebos, and even though he was focused on the task of getting stronger, he barely could endure the weight of his worries and doubts. Was Earth still fine? Were his friends alive and well? He didn\'t do much, but he worked to make everyone work together... he was hoping that someone worked hard to keep the nations helping each other. But that kind of thing was hard to achieve... even before the monsters appeared, only people with power could influence others to that extent.
"Amanda, Hector, Sasha, Gisela, Lennart, Yuki, and Ren... all of them had the potential to become strong. The rings I gave them should have helped them with that... but I can\'t help but wonder if they obtained the necessary strength on time to become influential..."
Leon was losing his focus, but it couldn\'t be helped due to his current situation... Fortunately, he recovered his focus when he found a group of new spells.

"We discovered those spells soon after grandfather died..." Darya explained. "When you cast them, the elemental swords stay near you and attack anything or anyone that wants to attack you. You can cast one more sword after leveling the skill ten times, the cost of mana will increase, though."
That was kind of obvious; it would be weird if he could cast more elemental swords using the same amount of mana. Regardless, it was very cool to keep those magic swords floating around Leon, and it was even better than he didn\'t have to control them to attack or to protect himself.
"I don\'t think Multi-Conjuration can cancel the weakness of the spell, but it is still handy… even I can\'t summon more than one at a time, but I can cast several of them one after the other since there is no cooldown time."
Those spells would help to increase Leon\'s offensive capabilities; it was worth leveling them up past level thirty? It was almost impossible to reach a conclusion… Leon didn\'t know much about the shadowy figure, after all.
"I wish I could obtain some information first before facing that thing… I could create a powerful zombie, but I won\'t be able to see anything unless I use the purple crystal too. The best option would be the undead trent since the most powerful monsters are krakens and ancient whales… but they can\'t cross the dungeon. Besides, can I turn into a zombie, an undead creature that is already working for someone else?"
It was very unlikely, even if Leon manages to create a zombie using an undead trent, the chances of that thing coming back to life under the control of the shadowy figure were quite high.

"In the end, I\'m already taking too many risks fighting against an unknown being... I don\'t need to take more risks leveling up skills that I don\'t know if it will be effective or not."
Leon decided to put the plans of strengthening the elemental auxiliary swords aside; those would probably be useful in the future. But instead of using that, Leon decided to count on \'his\' most powerful attack, which was the Sword of Light, and on his absolute defensive spell, Mana Armor.
"Just to be safe, I guess I should also leave Mind Armor activated..."
Although Leon didn\'t know much about the enemy, he knew that it would be his end if he ends up falling into an illusion. Unlike against the mermaids, Leon probably wouldn\'t escape the illusion of the shadowy figure.
