That pain wasn't like anything Leon felt before. It was like his very existence was getting crushed by the power of a black hole. Leon even lost the ability to think, but his heart that had turned into a magic item healed him before he could truly die. In the blink of an eye, using Telekinesis, his heart reattached his limbs and used Full-Recover. In the next second, Leon was back, almost completely fine, but he was only skin and bones again. Leon watched in shock the expression Sylas was showing while looking at him. There was nothing in his eyes: no fear, hatred, compassion, anger… nothing.
"So, you are Leon…" Sylas muttered, uninterested. "You must be soone really troubleso if you forced to use this."
Leon frowned when he heard that. Sylas not only looked different, but he also sounded different. His voice was calm and lacked any sentint, just like his eyes. It almost looked as if Sylas had forgotten about him, but that wouldn't make any sense since he still tried to kill Leon. Still, before Leon could understand what was going on, the sa thing happened again. Leon's body beca a ss in an instant. However, this ti, the very mont Leon noticed those effects. He also used Ti Manipulation on himself and made his body return in ti to the point where he wasn't damaged by whatever Sylas used.
Congratulations! You have beco a Level one Ti Lord!

"Oh… you also have the power of the ti on your side," Sylas muttered, showing a bit of surprise on his face. "It seems you won't go down as easily as the last one…"
Leon bit his lips in annoyance. Although he succeeded in countering Sylas attacks, it was clear who had the upper hand there. Leon had been using ti magic only to help on his training while Sylas was using to all kinds of crazy things. Most likely, he made his body age to a point where he reached the apex of his strength, even though that made him forget about Leon. Still, countering Leon's actions would be easy. Sylas would just have to slow down the effects of his attacks and make it continuous.
"Shit… this is bad," Leon clenched his teeth. "If only my replicas could work a bit faster."
There was also a way for Leon to counter Sylas' power. He just needed to have access to one million points of mana per second. That way, he would be able to reverse the ti in his body non-stop. Leon didn't know what would happen with him if he does sothing like that, but it probably would be better than dying.
However, much to Leon's surprise, Sylas took his sweet ti appraising Leon. There was a slight glow of interest in his eyes… as if soone extrely bored found sothing slightly interesting. By the look of things, Leon was right. Not only Sylas's body aged, his mind aged as well, but he didn't forget his original intent when he used that kind of crazy ability, and he intended to kill Leon.
"May I ask you sothing?" Leon asked in a hurry since he didn't have any other idea about how to stall for ti.
"It is useless," Sylas said. "You can't fool . Like my body and mind aged, my skill list also reached a point where it has all the skills obtained. I can hear your thoughts as if you are saying them out loud. I can feel what you feel as if you were . Stalling for ti is aningless."
That was insane, but Leon sohow didn't doubt Sylas' words. It was weird, but Leon couldn't even feel Sylas's presence anymore. He could see him, but his instincts told him that he was so far away that what he was saying was just an illusion. As if… as if Sylas' had beco a god-like existence.
"So, I can't defeat you?" Leon frowned.
"You can't," Sylas replied. "Just like you, I have the power of the Foresight now. I can see everything you might try to do right now as we speak. Attacking by using a conceptual attack with the power of teor, poison, using my companions as hostage… everything you might try to do is useless."
Leon frowned when he heard that. It looked like things would eventually make him so desperate that he would look for hostages in order to survive. It actually wasn't hard to imagine himself doing that. After surviving up to this point, Leon would do anything to succeed in achieving his goals.
"I guess Foresight can be used like that, huh," Leon sat on the ground and nodded. "Let's see if I can do it."
Leon didn't learn the skill himself in order to get rid of the cooldown ti, but maybe he could find a way now. Despite the limitations of the skill, Leon managed in a second, see the events that would happen in the next six minutes by using all his mana. That being said, Leon didn't see anything unusual. He just talked with Sylas.
Congratulations! You have beco a Level one Prophet!
Your intelligence and mana will increase by ten points, your control, health, stamina, and recovery will increase by five points whenever you level up your class.
"I see…, so this is what will happen if I don't do anything suspicious," Leon nodded to himself. "That transformation sure changed your personality… the previous you won't talk with for more than a few seconds without us questioning each other's intention."
"The future isn't set in stone," Sylas shook his head. "Although you saw the future where we talked, the future might change now that we know what might happen."
"I guess that makes sense," Leon shrugged. "Still, that doesn't change the fact that you are absolutely sure that you can kill , right? Or do you think that I future where I defeat you might happen if we talk a little?"
