After the change in his fundantal beliefs about mana and elents—or rather, the whole magical world—slowly but surely, the rate at which his control over the elents increased.
Not instantly, but he saw only little changes over ti, which made his belief even stronger over the past year.
Realizing what was correct and fully believing in that fact—leaving behind his previous beliefs—was a different matter, and it took a year to fully change his core understanding of mana, elents, and magic, which made the speed of learning elents many tis faster.
And the feeling of an unknown power drawing closer as he made progress in the elents was getting stronger and stronger, especially in his lightning elent, which he had the most control over among all the elents. He knew the unknown power was the concept of elents, the first level of which was Aura, which he was about to reach in the lightning elent.
That wasn’t all, as over the last year, he had focused on practicing his Rajin’s Descent, hoping to bring it to the Grandmaster level, and it felt like he would reach that level in a few weeks.
His control over the lightning elent was now three tis stronger than before, compared to the other elents.
He could reach the limit of controlling 1,000 mana in the lightning elent, but he had never truly launched an attack with it; he had only created a huge, towering spear and canceled it right after.
But this was now his strongest attack, and the devastation it would cause would be many tis stronger than the one he used to destroy the small mountain. That wasn’t all. With all the other elents, using 700 mana at the sa ti was now possible.
The only reason he couldn’t reach 1,000—sa as the lightning elent—was due to his control over those elents, not because of ntal pressure.

Another two months had passed. Leon was standing in front of a large mountain, using the Rajin’s Descent technique. The horn made of lightning was pulsating with intense energy as he punched the gigantic mountain, 200 ters tall, in front of which he looked like an ant.
Every punch made the ground beneath him tremble with the shock. Small craters, five ters wide and one ter deep, were being imprinted on the surface with each punch.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
More
He continued, pouring every ounce of his power into every attack while completely focused on maintaining the circulation of the lightning elent within his body.
Suddenly, the horn on top of his head burst into lightning particles and entered his body. His eyes glead with excitent as he saw the ssage floating in front of him. He ignored it completely and continued punching.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Now, instead of the horn, only faint lightning crackled all over his body—thin as threads of silk—but the color of the lightning was no longer glowing yellow; it had reached a hue closer to gold.
Another punch.
The devastation it caused was many tis stronger than before. Instead of five-ter craters, the surface was now marked with ones closer to twenty ters wide and three ters deep. The tremors it caused to the surrounding area were even greater. Small rocks shook and floated in the air with every punch.
Seraphine, from a distance of fifty ters, could clearly hear the loud booming sound. She realized that he had reached the Grandmaster level in Rajin’s Descent.
She had thought it would take him at least two years to achieve that, but the growth he had experienced from a single fundantal realization was far more than she had imagined.
And she knew reaching Grandmaster in another technique would take even less ti, as he had told her two months ago that he had completely overco his beliefs from the previous world, and there was nothing holding him back anymore.
So these past one year and two months were not uniform—his speed had only reached its peak in the last two months.
Seraphine had just achieved Master rank in the Skybreaker Draw technique two days ago, and now she was aiming to reach Grandmaster level in her Mana Body Enhancent. She knew it would take years to achieve this.
She just hoped that by the ti her six-year period was over—which ant eighteen years for Leon—she would have reached the Grandmaster level of mastery. It would definitely make her twice, or even thrice, as strong. It was the most fundantal technique that required no skill scroll to learn, as it would automatically appear in your system once you learned to control mana.
People called it a gift of the system. She believed it was the best choice for her to train this, as it would also improve her mana control, allowing her to spend less mana on her techniques and skills. She didn’t think she needed to advise her disciple, as with the rate of his progress, he had so much ti that he would definitely attain Grandmaster level in Mana Body Enhancent, too.
She was excited for the day they would reach the Kingdom of Champagne. She even felt now that her disciple might actually take on an army by the ti they reached there, as his strength was increasing at a terrifying pace.
Her shock didn’t end there. Suddenly, she felt a familiar energy coming from the direction where Leon was training. She recognized it imdiately.
Aura.
She hadn’t felt the increase in sound from the devastating punches he had been landing on the poor mountain for days, but she knew that reality up close would be much different.
Suddenly, a faint yellow, mysterious Aura appeared around his hands, only covering his fists. He recognized it as the first level without even needing to read the ssage from his system.
But unlike his master—who could cover her entire body and weapon with Aura—and whose intensity was many tis stronger, his was limited. He punched again, maintaining his Aura with full force, while Rajin’s Descent remained continuously active.
The result made his eyes widen in shock, as the difference was imnse. A thought crossed his mind. If Seraphine had managed to catch him that day, he would have had no chance of stopping her attack, no matter how much mana he had poured into his ice elent.
Now he believed it was only because of his space elent that he was able to stop her.
He realized how overpowered the space elent actually was—it could render even Aura useless if he had enough mana, as he had used three tis more total mana than she had to make her completely immovable.
