Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path

It didn't take long for Leon to realize what was going on. Tyrselle was getting reckless… using all the power she could muster. She turned that planet into the most powerful magnet in the universe… making all the nearby planets getting attracted by it.

"I don't like this," Ilyana muttered. "She knows this won't kill us, but she is doing it anyway… Still, at the very least, she will destroy several of the monsters under my control and cause a massive blow to my mana pool."

"I'm more worried about what she will do after all the planets and stars in this galaxy finally become a single massive object…" Leon frowned.

Ilyana finally noticed that. Tyrselle's actions would probably create the largest massive cosmic body of the entire universe. She not only would deal a massive blow to Ilyana and Leon's power, but she decides to make such a body go kaboom. Perhaps a good part of the universe would be destroyed.

Knowing Tyrselle, Leon was fully aware that anything he used against her in the past wouldn't stop her. Still, Leon didn't want to go too far and cause the destruction of other planets. If he does, he would end up destroying Miebos and perhaps even Earth since those were close enough to be destroyed if he uses anything as powerful as a Supernova.

When Leon finally had an idea of how to deal with that situation, something unexpected happened. Sylas returned, and as if that wasn't weird enough, several distortions appeared around them, and in each of those distortions, someone else appeared. Being of all kinds of species appeared and put themselves between Leon, Ilyana, and Tyrselle.

"You bunch of idiots…" Tyrselle bit her lips in exasperation. "What is the meaning of this, Sylas?"

"We can't abandon you, Master Tyrselle," Sylas said. "Not now when suddenly our goal is finally so close."

It was quite surprising, but thousands of warriors of several species nodded at Sylas' words. By the look of things, Tyrselle had been quite busy gathering several individuals that picked her interest and were talented in certain areas. Those individuals weren't as powerful as Sylas, but all of them were at the level of the most powerful warriors of Earth.

"Suddenly, I feel like I'm the bad guy here," Leon frowned.

"Fools…" Tyrselle lowered her head and said. "I cannot back down here… leave now, or all of you will die!"

"It is okay, Master," Sylas smiled. "At the very least, we will buy you some time."

"I… I used all of you," Tyrselle said in a barely audible tone. "All of you were only stepping stones for my plan! None of you know that, but I was the one who summoned the dragons in your planets. I'm the one who caused the death of many of your comrades. I'm your enemy, not your master or leader… now get the hell out of here and don't show yourselves in front of me again."

Leon frowned. That already had become a habit, and, in that situation, he couldn't really do anything else. If that was an act, Tyrselle could gain the Oscar in all categories because she really looked conflicted and sincere in Leon's eyes. However, the reaction of her followers only made Leon feel more puzzled.

"Is that so…" Sylas closed his eyes and then nodded to himself. "I'm sorry to say this, master, but I don't believe you. You may have indeed caused the destruction and death in our planets, but you didn't do anything similar after we met you. If you had walked the wrong path before, you chose another after some point. We survived until now, thanks to you, master. You gave us the power to reach our goals and didn't ask anything in return. For that, I will always be thankful, and at the very least, to show my gratitude, I will help you reach your own goal."

,m Leon looked at Ilyana, hoping to hear some explanation from her, but she looked as puzzled as him. Her memories seemed fresher than Leon's, and given that Ilyana studied Tyrselle's battle style, again and again, she probably didn't delete any memory related to her.

"Many weird things happened after the last time I used Reset," Ilyana shrugged. "Maybe she indeed recognized the value of friendship while she was looking for useful pawns to help her."

"Weird things? Such as?" Leon asked.

"The fact that you got involved with Netro and the other guy much sooner is one of them," Ilyana replied. "Also, as you remember, this time was the only time your airplane got delayed and, thanks to it, got attacked by a dragon. Do you remember when the other harvester began to teleport dead monsters to Earth to make the fifth stage start sooner? That also never happened before."

That wasn't surprising. Even though Ilyana and Serena could manipulate time, they didn't have total control over it. That was why they couldn't keep their memories all to the point where the time was reset. In any case, now the number of opponents had increased exponentially, and despite the things Tyrselle didn't do on their planets, they were willing to fight for her until the very end.

"What do you think of this, Ilyana?" Leon asked.

"There is strength in numbers," Ilyana replied. "Even if we counter her spell, those guys will make things complicated for us."

"I suppose it can't be helped…" Leon sighed. "I will summon them."

"Are you sure?" Ilyana asked. "I thought you have been fighting until now to protect them."

"I can't just take responsibility for their lives anymore," Leon said. "This is probably the last battle… those who want to keep living, have to earn the right to keep living."

"Let's just hope that we will solve this before the nearest planets crush your friends," Ilyana said.

In the blink of an eye, and with the help of Ilyana, Leon summoned all humans from Earth… the population of her planet just increased by several millions.
