Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path

Leon couldn't understand the logic behind Yuki's words, but it was obvious that the katana had a lot of sentimental value… It was her father's, and if he hadn't died, it would belong to her brother. It was proof of Yuki's trust…

Emperor's Katana

It grants you the skills: War Cry Lv 30. Strength +40, Speed +40.

Cost: 200 mana

Cooldown time: 600 seconds.

As expected, it was a pretty useful weapon. Leon didn't know how it fell on Makoto's hands, though. Regardless, War Cry was very useful; it could boost all physical-related status of all allies nearby Leon. He wasn't used to fighting in groups, but that skill would help a lot when the time comes.

Several hours passed, and around 07:30 AM, things started to get noisy outside the building. A crowd was starting to form in front of the building; it was time to end that. Seiji and Alexei already knew that there was no way to escape from their destinies, so they only accepted the inevitable… in the end, Yuki decided to back down; she didn't want to dirty her hands. Still, she made a complicated expression by making Leon do all the dirty work.

"Don't make such a face," Leon said. "I will do it with pleasure."

The crowd was too close, so Leon created a few stones and made it fall. When the crowd moved away a little bit, he let Seiji and Alexei fall. Since Leon managed to survive the fall from ten kilometers of height on the day the monsters appeared, they wouldn't die by the fall. Still, that wasn't his goal. He just dropped them to make the population of Moscow see them for a while. After confirming that the people saw those two, he dropped two steel pillars above them, smashing them to unrecognized pieces of flesh. In the end, Leon could bring himself to behead or to hang them. He could be, but the population didn't need to see such a vicious execution.

After that, Leon and Yuki left the building toward the steel pillars. They landed on one of those pillars, and Leon had planned a speech, but then he finally noticed that no one would understand him. Noticing Leon's troubled face, Lennart approached and then frowned when he saw him without an arm and leg.

"… I will translate your words." Lennart said.

"All right…" Leon nodded. " First of all, I would like to say that I'm sorry for the destruction I caused yesterday. I'm the one who created those skeletons and made them attack your city. I wish I could have done things differently, but I had no other choice since I wanted to help some friends."

When Lennart translated that, the people got nervous, and several of them decided to attack. However, only those who had bows did since they couldn't be seeing in the middle of the crowd. However, Mana Shield blocked those attacks.

"… I will forgive you guys this one time, but the next people who try to attack me, I will make some steel pillar fall on them." Leon said coldly. "Anyway, I made my skeletons stop several times to give time for the citizens to escape, so, I truly hope that only soldiers died… You guys certainly know one of those who are buried under those steel pillars. Alexei was your previous leader, I don't know what kind of leader he was, but he tried to kill me, he killed a friend and kidnapped another friend… therefore I killed him."

The crowd got suddenly quiet, as expected, by the look of surprise in their faces, they didn't know what Alexei did.

"Alexei worked with Seiji," Leon said. "A Japanese soldier who worked directly under the emperor Japan… Seiji is the other one who just got killed. He kidnaped the princes and killed the emperor with his own hands. I guess that makes him an accomplice. Anyway, I said and did this to give a warning for all greedy bastards who want to mess with my friends and me. If you follow that path, prepare yourself. I won't hold back… Anyway, I will try to repair all the houses I destroyed while I stay here. I will also try to repay all those who lost their things in some way or another. Until the next leader of your nation is decided by you guys."

Things got noisy again; a person killed their leader and was pretending to leave as if nothing had happened. It looked like that at least they wanted Leon to take his place in order for them to keep living their own lives… Alexei wasn't that popular, it seemed.

"Some people are asking what they should do now without a leader," Lennart said. "They are worried that the Chinese and Indians might attack and destroy all their nations."

"Didn't they hear what I said?" Leon frowned. "Choose a new leader. As for the other problem, the next guy will have to deal with it. I originally intended to make Alexei an ally, but he refused through and through. I'm assuming that the next leader won't join forces with Japan and the Allied Forces of North-America. If that person doesn't want to become an ally, then we don't have to help."

"Some people are asking if they can return to their homes and reclaim the lands of their countries that they lost when Alexei invaded," Lennart said.

"Why are they asking me?" Leon frowned again. "I'm not from here; I can't decide that for anyone. If the people are divided, they can do whatever they want, but like I said. Any greed bastard will die if they try to cause problems. We don't have time to fight against ourselves, after all."

Since he started that, Leon had to stay for quite a while, answering the questions the population made. Leon thought most people in Moscow were Russians, but he was wrong. Many important figures lived there because it had become the new heart of Europe.
