Unlimited Power: The Arcane Path - Chapter 695
Just as Leon wished for it, his alternated version used runes in different ways, and while watching that, Leon received some notifications.

Everything was fine, and all, but Leon couldn’t help but frown while looking at those two. Ilyana knew how to summon monsters, and she was always developing a new technique in that regard, so it didn’t make sense that she hadn’t a single spirit with her. The fact that they hadn’t been mentioned a single time bothered Leon deeply. As if that wasn’t crazy enough, after training together for a while, Leon saw his alternated version learning something that he wasn’t supposed to learn alone: light magic.
“What the hell is going on here?” Leon frowned.
Although his alternated version trained really hard and for hundreds of years, it didn’t make any sense that he could learn that. However, the surprises didn’t end there. After a couple of decades, that Leon also managed to learn dark magic.
“It looks like I was mistaken…” Leon muttered. “I didn’t steal all the talent of my alternated versions… I knew that I shouldn’t have trusted the words of strangers. I don’t regret finding the spirits, but perhaps I could have learned those types of magic alone.”
Soon Leon realized that his alternated version was about to reach his own level of power. However, that Leon trained for what seemed to be one thousand of years without using time magic… so, something like that was to be expected. Instead of something that cannot be learned alone, light and dark magic were something that comes naturally to their users naturally after a long life of continuous training.
At that point in time, it wouldn’t be weird if that Leon learns time magic. However, that didn’t happen. Who learned time magic first was Ilyana, while Leon learned space magic. That happened when Ilyana decided to use the same strategy Leon was using. However, instead of capturing random dragons and harvesters to continuously receive their health, mana, and stamina, Ilyana used that on her summoned monsters.
“So… this Ilyana also had that idea that I have?” Leon frowned. “I guess it would be much more convenient than capturing monsters… she didn’t have to use mind control spells on their monsters, after all.”
Once Ilyana used that, she suddenly got much more powerful and even stronger than Leon. After thinking for a while, Leon noticed that such an event was deeply connected to the moment she learned time magic. Maybe it wasn’t a rule, and it was just a coincidence, but Leon was having a hard time confirming that. However, he noticed that he learned light magic when he could use half-million points of mana per second, while Ilyana learned time magic naturally when she could use one million points of mana per second.
After a while, Leon confirmed that his theory was right… Ilyana tried to teach Leon how to use time magic, but he failed. He only succeeded when he reached that power level. Once that happened, their training speed increased by leaps and bounds, that was good, and all, but Leon was already worried about something else. That Leon and Ilyana were getting way too comfortable near each other. Eventually, both sides were looking at each other without hiding their intentions… and then it happened. Ilyana and that Leon slept together.
“This is so weird…” Leon frowned. “It has been hundreds of years since I watched porn, but I didn’t expect to see someone who looked like me doing the deed. Well, it was only a matter of time, those two aren’t machines, and unlike me, this Leon’s body is healthy.”
After losing all his friends and his wives, that Leon didn’t think he would be able to love someone else again, but after working with someone who had the same goals for so long, that Leon recovered more than a little bit of his humanity.
“Now it is a good time to use fast forward, but knowing Ilyana, this won’t happen” Leon shrugged.
Watching a life where he and Ilyana hooked up and worked together as equals? That wasn’t something Leon wanted to watch because he couldn’t find a single explanation as to why she lied and hid so many things from him. Still, even though it was annoying seeing another version of himself with Ilyana, it was better than keep watching him have a miserable life. Someone once said that misery loves company, but Leon wasn’t someone who would wish that for others, even though he only had that for who knows how long…

Now that they could train together at every moment possible, that Leon and Ilyana’s skills grew by leaps and bounds. When his alternated version reached the level max in some spells, Leon received those notifications and the status points. It was convenient, but Leon couldn’t help but think that Ilyana was trying to bribe him by giving him power so shamelessly.
