Moonlight Scattering Sword?
He hadn’t expected this Magic to appear as a reward out of nowhere.
Leon changed his mind and opted for the Magic Book.He had already experienced the Moonlight Scattering Sword’s power extensively.Above all, wasn’t its synergy with the Wooden Sword exceptional?
Leon opened the dark-colored book where he sat.
There were five Moonlight Scattering Sword Magic techniques that Leon had obtained from the Ancient Magic Archive.
Pierce, Swell.
And a simple slashing Magic, Blade.Split, which multiplies the number of swords like clones.Luna, which infuses Moonlight Magic Power.
Of course, they were all half-complete Spell Formulas, so Leon had been using them by filling in the gaps arbitrarily.
The Moonlight Scattering Sword (Intermediate) had all those half-complete Spell Formulas filled in.Surprisingly, they weren’t much different from the arbitrary Spell Formulas Leon had created.
Could it have been created by someone with a talent similar to mine?
There was one key difference, though.
Leon’s eyes widened as he saw the Spell Formula that followed.
Combination Magic!
How often had he wished he could use Pierce while using Swell?The Magic Book he received as a reward even included instructions on how to combine the five Magic techniques.
And that wasn’t all; there was Magic beyond the Basic level.
Magic that could alter the sword’s shape, and Magic that could launch sword waves in the form of moonlight.
And after that, Arcane Magic......
“No!”
The name of the Magic was written.Moon Flower Dance (月花亂舞).But the most crucial part of the Spell Formula was half erased.
Since it says [Intermediate], does that mean there’s also a [Basic]? And what I got from the Ancient Magic Archive is [Advanced]?
The Intermediate version also contained information about Grand Magic that Mystic Mages could use.This didn’t even have a name written, and most of the Spell Formula was erased.However, the sparse Spell Formula that could be seen was in a form that had become quite familiar recently.
Runic Script?
Was this Ancient Magic too?
I have one more reason to learn Runic Script.
But before that, finding the Basic version would be the priority.
Leon emerged from the Magic Orb after stabilizing his Realm.He wanted to find out what had transpired while he was training.
“Oh- I was wondering why I hadn’t seen you for a while, but you’ve grown even stronger?”
As Leon exited the room he was using as his personal Training Room, Velix greeted him.
“You can sense that too?”“Of course. I can instinctively tell whether an opponent is strong or weak.”
Is it like an animal’s instinct?Leon sat across from Velix, who was tearing into some unidentifiable monster meat.
“Has anything happened?”“Nothing in my territory.”“Didn’t you say it was chaotic because the Rulers had fled from the Central Forest?”“That’s still the case. They can’t return to the center, so they’re spreading out in all directions, taking over others’ territories.”
Velix cleared his throat with a ‘hmm’.
“Well, they wouldn’t dare to challenge my territory.”
Leon also knew that Velix had originally resided in the Central area before moving west.
“The reason for this hasn’t been discovered yet, right?”“If they’re shaken to that extent, it means an incredibly strong monster has appeared, but there’s no way such a monster would suddenly emerge...... Did a Witch come?”
Leon thought he had misheard and asked again.
“A Witch?”“The place where Witches gather is close to the Empire established by humans, but occasionally Witches come to the Beast Forest and cause trouble. Most of them are Apprentice Witches trying to gain experience, so it wouldn’t be in the Central area, but it’s not entirely impossible.”“Could an Advanced Insight Witch rampage in the Central Beast Forest?”“Insight? What’s that?”
As Velix tilted his head, Kito appeared out of nowhere and took over the conversation.
“It’s possible. It depends on what Magic they use.”“......How far is it from the Central Beast Forest to here?”
Velix answered while munching on the meat.
“Why? Did you get on a Witch’s bad side? It’s far from here. Even if it’s a strong Witch, they can’t drive out all the Rulers.”
Leon was somewhat relieved by Velix’s words.In fact, there was no reason to be anxious.
It’s not even certain that the Witch of Ruin has come.
Leon calmed his startled heart.
“Are you done with training? Are you going to beg for another sparring match?”“I’m up for sparring now.”“How much longer do you plan to stay?”“I’m not sure.”“At this rate, you’ll be here for a full year.”
Velix’s grumbling was silenced by Kito.
After hearing some news, Leon returned to the Magic Orb.
It was to master the rest of the Moonlight Scattering Sword and Ten Thousand Leaves, and to start exploring the Secret of Creation.
Ten Thousand Leaves was a Wood Attribute Magic, specialized in defense and recovery.It was inevitable that learning another Magic from 1-star would take time again.
Ordinary Mages use one Arcane Magic. It takes a long time to complete even one Arcane Magic.Having already completed one Arcane Magic means reaching the end of Early Arcane.Learning several more doesn’t help much in raising the Realm anymore.Rather, honing that Arcane Magic further is more beneficial in raising the Intermediate Realm.
That’s why multi-attribute Magic is desired.Because one Arcane Magic would encompass multiple attributes.
But if Leon had an advantage stronger than anyone else’s, it was time.First of all, he was young, and according to the reward system, he had obtained the best talent, and time flowed differently inside the Magic Orb.Moreover, aging didn’t progress inside the Magic Orb.
I need to solidify my Realm firmly while I have this opportunity.
Even if he could only perform Ninefold Incantation with different Arcane Magic, he wouldn’t fall behind others in growth.And eventually, those various Magic techniques would be combined into Leon’s own system.
He was laying the foundation for that time.
The Secret of Creation was a Magic that combined Magic and handcraft in a subtle way.
When Leon briefly looked at the Basic edition of the Secret of Creation, he thought it was worth trying here.He couldn’t learn the Advanced edition anyway because of the Runic Script.
The time to learn Runic Script will be when I leave this place.
After all, the powerful Magic Leon currently possessed ultimately came down to Runic Script.
To create a Golem, basic materials were needed to form the skeleton.The body of the Golem was made of minerals.
Create parts of the desired shape with minerals, and sculpt the Golem.At this time, Mana circuits had to be engraved on each part according to the blueprint.
And for the most important Core, engrave patterns according to the blueprint, and finally breathe Magic into the patterns through a unique Magic spell.
At this point, it could be divided into two methods: one was to insert simple commands to make it follow a predetermined behavior pattern, and the other was to control the Golem at will through activation Magic.
When the power of the Core ran out, the Mana of the Core had to be recharged.
It would be nice if it charged naturally.
Unfortunately, Mana had to be injected directly.The tubes stuck all over Gigantes’ body were for charging the Core’s Mana.
Still, if the patterns from the Secret of Creation were engraved on the Core, it could be used for a very long time with just one charge.Considering the Golems that were still operating in the Ancient Lair, its effectiveness was sufficiently proven.
As Leon mastered the Basic Secret of Creation, the Golem blueprint that had looked blank became visible.Leon, who had unfolded the blueprint, tapped his temple.
......This is giving me a headache.
It was visible, alright.Half of it.
This is only half visible too?
Half of the blueprint collection was still blank.It seemed that Advanced Magic needed to be learned to see it.
Will Gigantes become visible when I learn the Advanced version too?
It had to be.
Why am I spending time learning this?

Fortunately, Scorpion, Armor, and Gargoyle were Golems that could be created just by learning the Basic Secret of Creation.This meant that Leon could try it right away if he wanted to.
Although he couldn’t prepare a separate Core for the Gargoyle Golem, it wasn’t a big problem.The Core itself was a very common material.It was none other than a Mana Stone.The important thing was the pattern to be engraved on this Mana Stone.
The pattern engraving technique is difficult, but...... let’s give it a try.
Leon immediately decided to create the simplest Scorpion Golem.
There were nearly 100 materials to form the body.Since the Core was also intact, it could be operated just by injecting Magic Power.
However, Leon wanted to learn the technique, so he left the Core as it was and started practicing engraving patterns on a new Mana Stone.
The Scorpion Golem could block all Apprentice Magic, but it was difficult to face an Arcane Mage.This was because it lacked a long-range attack method to challenge Mages who could fly in the sky.
I can use it as a guard around my residence.
Of course, the Gargoyle Golem could challenge Arcane Mages, and if a large number of agile Armored Golems were created, they could threaten Arcane Mages.
As time passed, the remains of Scorpion Golems piled up around Leon one by one.
The technique of engraving patterns on Mana Stones to create Cores was more difficult than expected.
But knowing the power of Gigantes, Leon couldn’t give up.It was a process he had to go through to ultimately create a Gigantes that could face even an Advanced Insight Mage.
After mastering the Secret of Creation and immediately attempting it, 50 attempts ended in failure.
“Engrave.”
Leon incanted while floating a Mana Stone in midair.
Leon’s Magic Power seeped into the Mana Stone.
Scratch- Scratch-
As the pattern was being engraved on the Mana Stone according to the Magic, at some point it crumbled with a puff-.
“Ugh.”
A subtle harmony of Magic and technique.It was harder than learning the potion-making technique.
When he had used about 200 Mana Stones, Leon created the first Core for a Scorpion Golem.
The operation method was autonomous.It was a Golem that would only move when Leon used activation Magic.
When he used the activation Magic, Leon felt a connection of consciousness between him and the Scorpion Golem.Just like when Kito became a Servant Beast.
When Leon gave a command with his consciousness, the Scorpion Golem started dancing, lifting its front legs.
It moves well according to my will.
It seemed he had made the Core properly.Only then did Leon put on a satisfied smile.
Still, I need to try many more times to get used to it.
Leon had prepared 1000 Mana Stones so far.He needed more Mana Stones, if only to purchase minerals to compose the Golem’s body.
But there wasn’t much to worry about.
Leon turned his gaze to the items he had kept aside.
The Spatial Pocket obtained from defeating the Black Mage.
Come to think of it, he had also received Laidra’s Spatial Pocket but hadn’t opened it even once.
Should I take a look at the Spatial Pockets I’ve collected so far?
