One week have passed in the blink of an eye while Leon, Betty, and Sasha investigated so of the dungeons in South Arica. He also made his zombies lt, and he gave the excuse he planned beforehand. Anyway, it was ti to collect the dragon hearts and go ho, even though Leon didn't feel like that incident had been solved. After checking the dungeons in several parts of South Arica, Leon concluded that whatever caused the dungeons breaks wasn't nearby anymore.
"Well… I guess I shouldn't look for that thing so eagerly. That creature caused hundred of dungeons to break, and it also has the power to control monsters to so extent… that thing is clearly way out of my league."
After collecting thousands of dragon hearts in Porto Alegre, Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, and Salvador, Leon t Pedro again. Although only in Fortaleza they suffered casualties, Pedro still received him warmly.
"It's good to see you guys again," Pedro said. "Mission Accomplished, so it's finally ti to return ho, huh?"
"Yeah, I tried to investigate the dungeons, but I only found more questions than answers..." Leon sighed. "Anyway, keep in touch with us, all right? If sothing unusual happens, I want to hear it as soon as possible."
"Got it," Pedro nodded. "I didn't ask before because you were quite busy, but you are the one who is teaching how to heal wounds, right?"
"Yes… and you can send so of your n to learn it." Leon sighed. "But it won't be easy, so it is better if you send archers and mages first since they are more or less used to mana."
Leon only learned that afterward, but Pedro was one of the five representatives of the Atlantic Free Nation. He was a very busy person since he was also the best archer and one of the strongest survivors.
"Yes, we will," Pedro said.
Leon left Fortaleza carrying thousands of dragon hearts; he would have to eat only those for a while. Those were very convenient, but for efficiency's sake, Leon decided to share them with his friends.
Anyway, Leon could have obtained several magic weapons and a few tos, but he decided to leave them to the survivors of the Atlantic Free Nation since he didn't need them. However, those would be given to the civilians who wanted to beco soldiers, after facing such a threat, several of them decided to beco soldiers. That was good and all, but it would take a long ti before they obtain the power necessary to fight.
"I thought we would have to stay away from ho for several weeks…" Betty said as soon as they started to fly. "Although we more or less succeeded in doing what we ca to do, I can't feel like I did much."
"I'm the sa…" Sasha lowered her head.
Leon didn't say anything, he worked hard, but like those two, he didn't feel that victory ca thanks to their hard work. Still, there was no point in moping around, the only thing they could do was to keep training day in and day out in order not let sothing like that happen again, and by that Leon was referring to complete the mission thanks to sheer dumb luck or thanks to outside help.
Although Leon, Betty, and Sasha could have returned ho a lot faster, it took them five days to arrive at Las Vegas because Leon still wanted to check the dungeons on the way. Still, they found nothing. Regardless, Leon and the others arrived just on ti to see Amanda, Maya, Hector, Gisella, and Lenart lunching.
"Oh, you are finally back!" Amanda jumped from her chair. "Sarah told that you guys saved the day again… but you don't look pleased."
"Well, it is a long story…" Leon forced a smile. "We can talk about it later."
After lunchti, everyone reunited in the garden soon after Maya fell asleep. She was a kid who was growing fast every single day so that she couldn't skip her afternoon naps. Regardless, Leon explained to the others what happened, but he still kept the voice he heard as a secret. There was a chance that soone didn't use Telepathy to talk with him, and perhaps that voice was a symptom of him going crazy… either way, it was a good idea to keep that as a secret.
"I see… that is certainly suspicious." Hector rubbed his chin. " Did you see any sign outside the dungeons aside from the destruction caused by the monsters and those craters?"
"No, I doubt that even if the monsters hadn't destroyed everything we could have find," Leon answered. "The monster that caused the dungeon breaks can probably fly so that it wouldn't leave any trails behind."
"Why do you think that?" Amanda asked.
"Because I think the monster who caused the dungeon breaks has so really powerful magic skills," Leon explained. "I can't imagine a fist causing so much destruction, even if a fist caused that, why we didn't find any other signs of a lee fight?"
"That makes sense…" Hector said. "However, why the monster who caused the dungeon breaks left such signs of destruction? Dungeon breaks decreased here, but now and then they still happen, but the spies who cause them don't leave such obvious sign of their presences."
"That's the one million dollar question," Leon said. "We can't monitor all the dungeons, and we don't have enough information to figure it out such a thing… so we can only keep our eyes wide open and don't lower our guards… Well, enough of that. I finally discovered how to regenerate lost limbs, Gisela."
"Is that so, master?" Gisela asked excitedly. "As expected of you, master!"
"Yeah… but I don't think it will be a very pleasant experience." Leon hesitated.
