Capítulo 26: Unexpected Development
Time passed,
Very quickly, Days turned into weeks and weeks turned into months
3 months after Blaze had left, Leus was awake at night thinking about his progress so far
'My mana pool has increased considerably, But my Life Force didn't increase by much'
'My training is getting stale as well
Using Vivify is not increasing my Life Force anymore, And increasing my Mana Pool has become so difficult
I have to silently cast a spell of the ones I know for 8-10 times to feel that my mana is decreasing, And that's probably not because I'm so great but because the spells are so basic and weak, I must find another way to train'
Over the next few days, Leus have come up with a new plan
'First, I will learn how to silently cast Mana Vision'
'I just have to focus on how it feels, Then try to replicate it'
'I roughly understand the concept behind it, So it should be fine'
'After I learn how to silently cast Mana Vision, I'll silently cast other spells at the same time'
'If I use many spells at the same time then my Mana Pool gets depleted extremely fast, This should be the best way to train for now'
After Leus started following his new plan, He began to faint again like before, however, because of how experienced he has become and his sharp control over Mana, He managed to always feel it coming beforehand and be in bed before fainting
Sadly, He couldn't find any trick to increase his life force
Just like that, Another 3 months passed
But by that time, A couple of things changed.
Currently, Leus was one and a half years old, And he began feeling something strange
Every time he trained, he felt as if his Life Force was hitting something like an invisible wall
It felt strange
As if water was pressuring a dam and it was about to break,
He didn't understand what he felt or why he was feeling it, So he ignored it and just continued training
Few days passed like that, But one night, Things went different
Leus was awake in the middle of the night, Like always, He was using Vivify and channeling his Life Force to his sleeping mother
But while he was doing that, Something happened
It felt as if something broke inside him
He felt as if his Life Force was put in a box, But suddenly it grew so large that it broke the box and came out
As if a dam broke inside him, He felt Mana flood his body
From all over the room, Mana entered Leus' body
He started to panic
'What the hell is going on? Every part of my body is paining!'
He didn't do anything different today, Yet, He was feeling so much pain and tiredness all of a sudden
Leus stopped using the spells and tried to walk back to his bed, But he couldn't
' ... My body feels so sluggish'
Helpless, Leus fell to the floor
His breathing quickened, And his mind raced trying to understand what was going on, But to no avail
After a couple of seconds, His eyes felt heavy and even breathing became a monumental task
Leus was scared
'Am I dying? ... Did I do something wrong?'
'But Sal said that nothing wrong should happen as long as I'm careful with my Life Force ...'
'I used the same amount of Life Force as always ... What's going on'
Slowly, Leus' consciousness began to fade, His mind went blank and his eyes closed
Few hours later,
Viorica got up from her sleep and found Leus on the floor
She quickly carried him but then she noticed something
'He feels heavier today ...'
After putting him on the bed, She began trying to wake him up
"Leus, Leus, Get up, Why were you on the floor?"
For a while, Viroica kept tying to wake Leus up, But he didn't wake up
She panicked
'Blaze isn't home ...'
She forced herself to keep her composure and tried to think straight
'I can't scare Amethyst and Merlin ... I have to calm down'
She took a deep breath and asked herself
'Think Viorica, Think ... What would Blaze do in this situation?'
Quickly memories from the last time came to her mind
'Right!'
She checked Leus' breathing and heartbeat
She first put her hand on his mouth and felt his breath, Then she put her ear on his chest and she heard his heartbeat
Doing that calmed her down a lot
After she calmed down, She remembered what Blaze asked her the last time
'Wake him up with Magic'
She didn't hesitate for a second and started chanting the only incantation she knew of, Water
However, As water poured on Leus' face, He still didn't get up
That left her with a single option
'I have to go and bring Remedy here!'
Initially, She considered taking Leus to Remedy, But because she didn't know what was wrong with him nor if that would be the right thing to do, and because she used Magic and felt that it'd be too tiring to carry Leus all the way to Remedy and back, She decided against it and rushed to bring Remedy instead
She quickly reached her clinic and went inside, Then she went and explained the situation to Remedy
Remedy didn't want to come and suggested waiting until their next weekly appointment, But Viorica was adamant that she comes
'Ughh ... It's my fault for not checking their background properly'
Leus' condition sounded worrying, And Remedy couldn't just let him die
'He's a direct descendant of the Inferno household ... And I don't want my record to be tainted with the death of someone like that ...'
She could only sigh and helplessly follow Viorica to her house
'The first thing I'll do after becoming Elite is cutting all my connections to this unlucky family!'
She vowed that to herself and went inside
Viorica quickly led Remedy to where Leus was and closed the door behind her.
