Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path

Things were going well, perhaps too well. Leon was living such a good life that he started to kind of fidget, he was still working to solve several problems, but even so, he was having an easy time. He was the kind of guy who couldn't get used to a lifestyle where nothing caused him any trouble; it was all thanks to that island.

But in the end, that was just his instincts warning him that soon he would face some serious problems. He understood that when one of Makoto's ninjas suddenly appeared at Amanda's house when they were having breakfast. Everyone with the sole exception of Leon picked their weapons, even Betty, who already knew them. She was quite the scaredy cat...

"Relax, guys," Leon said. "He is one of Makoto's subordinates. Did something happen? Did he sent a message?"

"Lady Yuki has been kidnapped; His Majesty requests your assistance." The ninja said.

"… Who is Lady Yuki?" Amanda asked.

"She is the princess of Japan," Leon answered. "How did that happen? I've never seen her leaving the palace."

"The contents of the situation are confidential." The ninja said.

"I guess people like us can't get involved," Hector said. "What are you going to do, Leon?"

"You should go and help them; I can teach the survivors while you are away," Amanda said.

"…Yeah," Leon nodded after thinking for a while.

"I want to help, but I guess His Majesty doesn't want to spread information more than the necessary," Betty said.

"Be careful, master," Gisela said.

Leon was quite troubled by that situation, he and Makoto didn't owe anything to each other, if anything, Makoto would be the one who was owing Leon more than a few favors. However, in times of crisis, it is common for a nation to help an allied nation. The Allied Forces of North-America were still organizing themselves after losing the directors so that Makoto couldn't rely on them. He wanted to rely on Leon… it couldn't be helped, but Leon would have to stop his training.

��If something happens, contact me immediately," Leon said to everyone.

By the look of things, Makoto wanted to solve that problem quietly, even though his daughter's life was one the line, he was aware that he couldn't make an international commotion. That was why he requested Leon's help alone. Anyway, Leon didn't have many things to carry. He already had two big weapons, so carrying the shield of dawn would be troublesome. Aside from his sword and scythe, he decided to take the gloves, the rings just in case. It goes without saying, but he also was using his armor, cape, and amulet.

"Well, then, I'm going," Leon said.

"Be careful and try to return as soon as possible," Amanda said.

Leon nodded, in a little more than one month, would be Maya's birthday. Leon wanted to be present so that he would work hard for it, but he was aware of the fact that defeating the guys who captured Yuki wouldn't be a walk in the park.

"I'm sorry, Gisela… even though I promised you…" Leon said.

"It's all right, master." Gisela smiled. "We'll be waiting for you."

Leon nodded, and then he and ninja guy left Las Vegas using a platform of earth. Although those guys could cross distances faster, Leon was aware of the weaknesses of such a convenient skill.

While he was flying, Leon was concentrated on the job to reach San Diego as soon as possible, but once they were in the mouth of the megalodon, he resumed his training. The best thing he could do was to learn how to heal wounds faster and level up the Mana Dominion. Mana Shield would also help him in the mission. However, he decided to keep his new cards hidden.

"I doubt that she was kidnapped so easily without the help of someone inside the palace… I have to be careful in order not to let information about me spread too easily."

As of late, Leon didn't hold back. So, Makoto's spies and spies from other nations knew more or less what Leon could do. With that kind of knowledge, they could find a way to counter his skills, he was training daily in order not to let that happen, but caution was still necessary.

"Fortunately, Mana Dominion can level up just by being kept activated, and I can recover mana while keeping it active."

Leon thought of leveling up that skill later, but once he realized he could let that working non-stop even while he was sleeping, he changed his plans. Unfortunately, Mana Shield and Mana Armor didn't work like that. It could only level up by blocking attacks.

When Leon arrived in Tokyo, it was already midnight. As soon as they left the megalodon's mouth, the ninja teleported them to the palace, and there Leon saw Makoto arguing with his advisors. Surprisingly, Makoto was arguing and looking viciously at Ren.

"Your Majesty, I brought Leon." The ninja said and then disappeared.

"Leon..." Makoto sighed to calm down his nerves. "I thank you for answering my call so fast."

"It is alright," Leon said. "I believe we don't have time to waste, so, shall we get to the business?"

"Yes, two days ago, the palace was attacked by a group of Russian spies," Makoto explained. "We managed to repel them, but the attack was only a distraction, they had an agent infiltrated, and that agent kidnapped my daughter."

"Who kidnapped her?" Leon asked.

"Seiji...he and his soldiers struck down the imperial soldiers and fled to Russia," Makoto said while he was clenching his teeth. "I trusted him, I considered him to be my right-hand, and still he betrayed me, he betrayed all Japan! I cannot forgive him..."

"So, the baldie did…" Leon murmured.
