Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path

p After a while, Leon saw he was the only one left alive on the American side. All the people he fought alongside in the previous four years had died. Yet… that Leon didn\'t feel anything about that. Makoto was still alive and had two other soldiers on his side, but instead of letting them weaken the enemy in front of him even more, Makoto stepped forward and gave his men the order to fall back.

Both Leon and Makoto didn\'t say anything to each other. There was nothing to say. They were enemies and nothing more. Leon couldn\'t care less if Makoto\'s wish for justice was right, and Makoto couldn\'t care less if the man in front of him didn\'t have anything to do with the death of his kids.

Suddenly, Makoto dashed forward, and Leon barely had time to move his arms and aim at his head and torso. A Thunder Bullet flew toward his head while the Frost Lance was aimed at his stomach. However, with a single swing of his katana, Makoto blocked the projectiles. His arms got electrocuted, and he was forced to slow down, and that was the chance Leon had been waiting for. In the blink of an eye, several Frost Lances coming from all directions surrounded Makoto. However, much to Leon\'s surprise, Makoto only protected his head and ignored the pain and the wounds when he got hit by them because they barely pierced his body. Makoto was bleeding a little, but nothing more.

Leon had been fighting for a while, so he didn\'t have much mana left. Given that Frost Lance and Thunder Bullet were his most powerful spells and still weren\'t powerful enough to stop Makoto, he would have to risk himself in order to succeed.

"I wonder why even those versions of me also don\'t like to rely on weapons all that much," Leon frowned. "Is that an instinctive action or something?"

Instead of trying again, that Leon just pointed both hands toward Makoto. Since he couldn\'t see any sign of resignation in Leon\'s eyes, he concluded that he was plotting something. It was only obvious… despite that, Makoto couldn\'t bring himself to fall back or hesitate in front of his soldiers. Thousand of his warriors had died in that battle, so his pride didn\'t allow him to do that either.

Makoto had hoped that he would force those who killed his kids to fight against his army by causing a war. Even though he didn\'t have any idea who did that, he thought that they had been forced to fight and died since there was only one enemy in front of him. Makoto didn\'t know if he had accomplished his wishes, but he felt that it was time to end everything once and for all.

Concentrating all his strength in a single moment was what Makoto was good at, and since the opponent didn\'t intend to attack first, he couldn\'t have asked for a better moment to do that. After concentrating for several seconds, Makoto raised his sword and then disappeared. Despite that, Leon didn\'t panic. He was fully aware, based on Makoto\'s stance, how and where he would attack. When Makoto appeared before him and swung his sword downward to split him half, several Frost Lances appeared on Leon\'s right hand and stopped the attack. Makoto managed to cut down several of them, but he lost his momentum in doing that. Suddenly, Leon grabbed Makoto\'s head with his left hand and then grinned when he completely covered his mouth.

"Thunder Bullet."

A direct electric attack hitting the inside of his mouth was enough to kill Makoto. Although humans could train their bodies, once their heads and hearts are damaged beyond repair, everything is over…

Once again, Leon felt complicated things while watching other Leon tossing Makoto\'s body aside while smiling. Most people would feel proud of themselves by defeating a worthy opponent, but not Leon… not even when he had the power of pride. The two other soldiers tried to avenge their emperor, but they failed… Amidst thousands of corpses, that Leon sat on the ground and begun to laugh maniacally. He was the strongest… he was the sole survivor of a war of beasts. He defeated countless warriors that could use all kinds of crazy abilities… he deserved to be called the strongest. However, that feeling soon disappeared.

When his head cooled down, that Leon finally realized that he had become a monster himself… emptiness. That was what he felt inside him. He killed hundreds of soldiers for no reason. Although it was a war, he had no reason to hate his enemies or smile while killing them. In a sense, that Leon caused more deaths that many monsters. With his head down and while letting the tears of his face flow, that Leon left the battlefield.

"Shit… this is so messed up," Leon said, annoyed. "Although it is better than watching myself become even worse, it isn\'t unpleasant to see this either…"

Once again, Leon felt that not only he deserved to watch himself endure so many hardships, but this time he also felt that he had the duty to do that. It was a weird feeling beyond explanation.
