If Leon could learn Mana Manipulation and Mana Transformation… he immediately concluded that he could learn Mana Creation, but was that really possible? Would that help him in any way? Regardless, it wouldn\'t be simple to create even more mana if that was possible… so Leon decided to focus on the things he could do using Mana Transformation.

"Let\'s see… if I can create coins, I will most likely increase my status permanently using mana," Leon rubbed his chin. "Well, Mana Sacrifice can do that already, so that also proves my theory."

Unfortunately, just using Mana Manipulation to increase his status wasn\'t working, so Leon had to do something else. Giving that order for his replica to learn the ins and outs of that skill would save him a lot of time, but since the replica was busy training several skills, it wasn\'t a good idea.

"The transference rate won\'t be as high as it is with coins, so eventually, I will have to leave that kind of thing to my replica," Leon said. "Still… I have a feeling such effects won\'t be permanent unless I do it myself. It would be weird if my replicas obtain status points, and then I get them once he disappears, after all."

After a while, Leon finally discovered the tricks behind Mana Manipulation. In order to increase certain status, he would need to concentrate a vast amount of mana in certain areas of his body. For example, to increase his speed that had 390 points, Leon would have to sacrifice 39000 mana points to increase a single point in agility… the current level of the skill multiplied by one hundred.

"It is good to increase the status that are on low-levels, but eventually, it will be too inefficient…" Leon sighed. "Eating dragon hearts is much more efficient."

Leon also thought about using that skill and create dragon hearts, but that wasn\'t something he could do just by wanting either. He couldn\'t understand the process of creating another lifeform of another species.

However, much to Leon\'s surprise, he managed to spend one million mana points to increase his intelligence by a single point… it still was terribly inefficient, but it was something.

Although it was weird and curious about why his replica only trained physical skills this time, Leon decided not to ask. As long as he assimilates the experience obtained, the replica would most of the time do the things Leon planned, but now and then, some unexpected things would happen.

Regardless, Leon learned how to increase his status directly using mana. The chances of Ilyana know how to do that were already quite high, given that she wanted to use coins to create things that don\'t even exist, so Leon didn\'t bother reporting that to him.

"Well… now what?" Leon rubbed his chin.

Although it seemed like an interesting idea, Leon started to wonder if he was doing the right thing focusing on that. Creating a similar system might make him understand what was the end goal of the creator of the system, but would help Leon directly that late in the game?

Perhaps the system he might develop would help other humans, but Leon was already spending too much time analyzing and giving the spirits\' powers to those who would cause problems in the future.

"Well, I should be thankful that I have the leisure to think about this kind of thing…" Leon shrugged. "While I didn\'t have many options on the process of becoming stronger, many others had even fewer choices."

In the end, Leon decided to continue and develop a system even more convenient than the assimilation system. Since he had the power of the spirits, he could add some features that might save his life more than once, but he was yet to discover how to make things like a \'retry.\'

"Now that I think about it… you are pretty good at things like this, right Sekundez?" Leon asked.

"I\'m good at what?" Sekundez asked.

"At creating process and rules in a system," Leon replied. "How come you made the monsters spawn every minute in that dimension? I also would like to understand how you managed to increase the number of zombies that attacked me every week."

"You just have to wish for it when you use Mindscape Transportation," Sekundez explained. "Of course, the rules of the ambient must be decided beforehand, and you can\'t change while the skill is active."

In the end, Leon just had to do the same thing he always does when he sets the speed of time in that dimension. However, it looked like Sekundez couldn\'t apply that kind of thing to reality… unless Leon manages to alter the rules around his body, he wouldn\'t be able to create the system the way he wanted.

In any case, Leon already could bend the space to some extent, so the first step had already been taken. The only thing left he would need was time to finish that, and it looked like he wouldn\'t have.
