After eating the food made by Charmy, Leon felt mentally invigorated.
He began refining data while recovering his mana.
Finally, feeling that more than half of his mana had recovered, Leon resumed his simulation experiments.
Ultimately, after a night had passed, Leon looked at the sphere flickering with black light in his hand and laughed with excitement.
“Finally, I have done it!” Then Leon threw it with all his might into the distance.
Upon impact with the ground, a black light radiated within a half-meter radius of the sphere.
Then it quickly vanished, and the entire area covered by the black light simply disappeared into thin air.
This time there was no explosion and no thick smoke.
There was only instantaneous annihilation.
Seeing the power he had wrought, Leon’s tense spirit instantly relaxed.
A wave of exhaustion and sleepiness surged into his heart.
Just like that he lay on the ground and fell into a deep sleep.
Even in his slumber Leon continued to murmur to himself, “Success, I have finally succeeded.” The rising sun cast its warm rays upon Leon.
“Honestly, has this successfully surpassed the limits?” When Leon woke up, he found himself lying on a bed, and the clothes on his body had been changed into clean pajamas.
Before Leon could check where he was, the door suddenly opened.
Pushing it open were Charmy and the Sheep Cook carrying food.
“You have not eaten this morning, so you must be very hungry, Mr.
Leon.” Hearing Charmy’s words, Leon did indeed feel that his stomach was a bit hungry.
After saying thanks, Leon took the food and began to eat heartily.
“Mmm, so delicious.” “Hehe, of course it is delicious.
The food made by the Sheep Cook is the best!” After swallowing the food in his mouth, just as he was preparing to take another bite, he suddenly heard a noise coming from outside.
This made Leon unable to continue eating.
Without even changing out of his pajamas, he scooped up Charmy and rushed out of the room.
Upon reaching the hall, Leon was just about to ask what had happened.
But upon seeing Fanzell, Leon instantly understood the whole situation.
After putting Charmy down, Leon asked Yami gravely, “Captain Yami, can I use lethal force?” Yami, bearing a rock on his head, said nonchalantly, “As long as they do not die, it is fine.” After receiving the response, Leon followed the others and rushed out directly.
After rushing out of Noelle’s Water Dragon’s Lair, Leon looked at the enemies and thought that since he could not kill them, crippling them would do.
“Metal Creation Magic: Great Mercy Gatling.” Looking at the brand-new Gatling in his hand, Leon put the thermal imaging goggles on his face and directly initiated indiscriminate firing.
After the Great Mercy Gatling warmed up, the next second countless blue fire serpents spewed out from the muzzle.
Upon seeing the weapon in Leon’s hand, the enemies were immediately terrified.
“What is this?
What kind of magic is this?” “No, this is not magic.
This is a monster!” For the people of this magical world, the firearm in Leon’s hand indeed transcended their imagination.
Feeling the recoil of the Gatling in his hand, Leon felt it would be better if he had a cigarette in his mouth.
After a while, feeling that there was no one left standing within the thermal imaging range, Leon placed the Gatling on the ground and grinned.
“Who told you to dare disturb my meal.” Afterward, putting away his magic, Leon went straight back to his room to continue his life of eating.
Do not ask why Leon was previously fed and fled the base but now flies into a rage because others delayed his meal.
If you must ask, it is because Erha is contagious.
Returning to the room, Leon enjoyed the pleasure of eating delicacies while replicating the Annihilation Bomb he had researched earlier.
“Mmm, the data for the Annihilation Bomb is roughly perfected.
Next is to add the tracking template to it.
Mmm, so delicious.” [“I agree too.
It seems Leon has also become a foodie just like me!”] “Mind your own business!” After finishing all the delicacies Charmy brought, Leon looked at the unactivated Annihilation Bomb in his hand.
His face beamed with a smile.
Finally he had the ability to protect himself in this world.
“Bang!” “Brother Leon!
The old man says he wants to talk to you about something!” Seeing Asta push the door open and enter, Leon thought to himself that he did not even know Fanzell.
However, adhering to the principle that being idle is just being idle, Leon still went with Asta to see Fanzell.
Upon seeing Leon, a flash of fear crossed Fanzell’s eyes, but he quickly concealed it well.
“Yo, Asta just told me.
Your name is Leon, right?” Leon nodded to confirm this.
Then he asked Fanzell suspiciously, “Um, I do not think I know you.
What did you want to talk to me about?” Upon hearing this, Fanzell placed his hand on the back of his neck and said slightly embarrassed, “Ah, you indeed do not know me.
I just saw that you look a bit like an acquaintance of mine, so I wanted to confirm if it was him.
But seeing how healthy you look, it definitely is not him.” Hearing this, Leon felt completely speechless.
So you called me over just to confirm if I was an acquaintance you know.
[“Leon, there is a familiar aura on him.
That is the aura of Devour Magic.”] Hearing Erha’s grave words, Leon’s gaze also became serious.
Seemingly influenced by Leon’s serious gaze, Fanzell smiled bitterly and said helplessly, “It seems you really are the acquaintance I know.
Asta, you go back first.
I will have a chat with this little brother.” “Eh?
Alright, old man.” After Asta left, only Leon and Fanzell remained in the clearing.
Leon sighed and sat down on the spot.
“Now can you tell me why?
Why do you have the aura of Devour Magic on you?” Upon hearing this, Fanzell also sighed.
Then he sat down and slowly revealed the truth of the matter.
“It was about five years ago.
When I was still in the Diamond Kingdom, I encountered a devil during an outing mission.
The appearance of that devil was almost exactly the same as yours.
If I had to say there was a difference, it was just that he was a bit younger.” “That devil at the time, no, you at the time were surrounded by ominous mana and seemed to have lost consciousness.
The magical aura you sensed on me must have been left behind during that battle.
No, that time could not really be called a battle.
Because at that time no matter what kind of magic I used, after approaching you it would invariably dissipate in the air.
But fortunately you did not pay attention to me at the time but kept moving in one direction.
Thinking about it now, if you had attacked at that time, perhaps I would have long since been buried there.
Ahaha.” After listening to Fanzell’s account, Leon’s mind was in great turmoil.
At the same time he began to communicate with Erha in his heart.
“Erha, what Fanzell described is…” [“That is right.
It was a loss of control.”] “But is not Devour Magic something that only appeared after you were born?” [“Perhaps we have forgotten one thing all along, Leon.
The injuries on your body at that time might now have an explanation.”] “You mean those injuries were all caused by me when I lost control?” [“That is the only explanation.
Otherwise why would we have no memory of that period, and why would you have been severely injured at the time.”] Leon was silent for a moment and then accepted Erha’s explanation, because only this situation could explain the scene Fanzell saw.
“Then Uncle Fanzell, did I go on a rampage at that time?” “Ah, probably not.
Because I observed for a while, and then I found that you only kept moving in one direction.
No matter what attacks or magic were around you, they were all inevitably devoured by that mana of yours.
Even if there were obstacles in front of you, they would also be devoured by your mana.” “Alright, do not dwell on it too much.
After all, that was five years ago.
Now there is not a shred of ominous mana around you.” After saying this, Fanzell stood up and left the place, leaving Leon alone to ponder.
After thinking for a while, Leon also stood up from the ground and turned to look at the sunset.
“Yeah, after all, I now possess the Annihilation Bomb!” [“Leon, I will definitely master Devour Magic completely!”] “Then let us work hard together towards tomorrow!” …
