Strange Worlds-Chapter 320: Flickering Light Magic Spell (3)

Evan and the others came out earlier.

Evan and Dean didn’t think too much about the fact that Yun was able to learn a rank 4 magic spell so quickly. After being beaten up so badly by Aya in that formation, Evan believed that he would be able to learn other magic spells in the future.

Even if a rank 4 magic spell was more difficult, they just have to train and train again.

Dean himself didn’t have much mana and didn’t have much hope for himself. He knew very well that it would be better for him to focus on his physical strength. Rank 4 was still so far away from him based on his own rate of improvement.

Luckily, Aya gave him a stack of potions too.

It would help him to increase his mana amount to a certain degree.

Only Leon was thinking hard about how to increase his mana faster. The potion given by Aya had clear instruction and Leon also didn’t dare to drink too much.

He knew very well that the amount he had was limited and his body might not be able to bear it if he forced himself.

The problem is...

Leon wished that he could grow stronger at the fastest speed possible.

He didn’t want to lag behind.

His friends had all managed to reach rank 4 so quickly, so he couldn’t be lagging behind.

"Brother." Lilac saw her brother was deep in thought when he came back. She looked at him up and down and felt that he seemed to look different.

Even though he still looked a bit cold, he seemed to have found his own determination.

Hearing his sister’s call, Leon raised his head and looked at Lilac in front of him with a faint frown. He knew very well that the main reason why his father chose to abandon him was because Lilac was more capable than him.

Otherwise, the Black Family Patriarch would choose to train him harder.

Be it for the good or the worse.

It would be a lie if Leon said that he was not jealous of his sister. Everything he wanted to get seemed to be so easy to obtain in Lilac’s eyes. She was also far more capable than him, making it look like he was a useless person.

But what could he do?

Leon knew very well what his capability was.

"Yes, Lilac?" Suppressing his thoughts, Leon looked at his sister.

"The food is ready and it’s already late. Don’t train for too long, Brother," Lilac said calmly and then left.

She could see that her brother might not have a good feeling for her because she took over his position. She has been very smart ever since she was young, so she could see the struggle in Leon’s eyes.

Rather than staying here and making her brother feel worse, Lilac would rather go back.

Lilac knew that she couldn’t control their father’s thoughts.

But at the very least, she didn’t want to make her brother feel more resentful towards her. Besides, Lilac knew very well that the responsibility to become the family patriarch was really big.

"I see." Leon looked at his sister’s departing back and said nothing.

To be honest, he didn’t really want to see anyone. Even if he acted like normal in front of Evan and the others, only Leon knew that he only wanted to train more and more.

He couldn’t accept being so weak.

At the very least, he wished that he could improve in the same rate as the few others in the same team as him. From Aya, Evan, and now Yun... he felt that they were all leaving him behind one by one.

After eating, Leon went to the training room.

As for Lilac’s reminder?

It has long been thrown away from Leon. He couldn’t afford to have a lot of rest. If he wanted to catch up with the others, he could only work harder and harder.

Otherwise, it would be highly impossible for him to follow in their footsteps.

...

The night passed by quietly.

The next day, Aya stayed in her room a while longer to meditate. She had sneaked out to the forest and hunted a few more magic beasts.

’There are still more ghosts appearing.’

Aya sighed deeply.

She suspected that another dimension door had appeared, leading towards more ghost realms. In this way, there were more ghosts in the deep forest.

Aya really hated those ghosts.

But she also knew that it was impossible to deal with all of them so easily. She could only take one step at a time and try her best to kill as much ghosts as possible without affecting her practice.

Though...

Aya didn’t really need to practice physically.

Her system was still operating all day long and Aya felt that even if she calculated the mana she used to maintain her system, the leftover mana was still a lot. It seemed that as her rank was higher, the burden to operate the system had also decreased.

This is a good thing for Aya.

Though, Aya still kept most of the mana inside her mana heart, into the core that all rank 7 magic warriors would make. She would not dare to take it out when she was in Wansu City in case someone found out about it.

Living this kind of dual life was still pretty good in Aya’s opinion.

’Once the competition is over, I’ll go back and focus more on the deep forest. Aside from that, I still have to appear occasionally to take missions... uhm, one or twice a month should be enough.’

Aya didn’t lack money at all in the eyes of others.

Besides, there was no one who didn’t know that she spent most of her time meditating because she wanted to surpass her teammates in mana.

This excuse was quite good and Aya felt that if she showed rank 3 mana in a year or two, no one would suspect her.
