Leon made his choice, and when he did it, he approached the ocean. A few moments later, the same sea-snake that attacked him came to chew his body, but Leon made it eat twenty-four lightning bolts. Leon had to use all his mana, but he killed the beast instantly... at the price of almost losing his hearing. Leon's lightning bolts were so powerful that their movement made the entire air in several kilometers vibrate.

"Phew... I guess I have to return to Earth and ask Yuki if they are selling headphones there. My ears won't last long if I keep using this kind of attack often and keep them unprotected."

Leon solved that problem thanks to Multi-Casting, but he had time to notice that the last lightning bolt was the one that killed the beast. Since the skill level up, he would be able to save a little more mana, but it didn't change the fact that he would waste a lot of time making that ocean of that world explorable and secure.

In order to save time, Leon started to absorb the mithril of his equipment and flew around that world. Five minutes later, he found another sea-snake, and things repeated itself. However, this time, Leon escaped the Water-Beam. The creature fell on the ocean, but after a few seconds, it returned to annoy Leon, but his presence was ready to be delivered and then once again... Leon killed another beast using Lightning and Multi-Conjuration.

Although it wasn't good for his heart, Leon used that strategy to lure and kill the sea-snakes for an entire week. After doing that for so long, the tax of encounter decreased from twelve every hour to one per hour. It wasn't one hundred percent safe, but Leon couldn't keep going like that, he had to find the spirit of water because time was something he couldn't afford to waste. Leon decided to take some risks.

"I think I'm walking in circles being stubborn not to use Summon Zombie and still thinking that I don't have time to waste... in the end, I'm putting myself at risk two times more..."

Since Leon couldn't feel the mana of other living beings and keep Mana Concealment active, he had no choice but to swim and accept the risks. Well, floating was probably the correct way to say it, since he was using Mana Barrier. In the end, he wasn't that unprotected.

"I heard that some animals get scared when they feel the smell of their own blood in some enemies... Shall I do that? Will those monsters even feel the smell underwater? Can they even feel fear?"

Much to Leon's surprise, several hours passed, and he didn't find a single sea-snake. Maybe along the previous week, he managed to show all of them who was the boss... or if they were cannibal monsters, they were eating the corpses of the monsters Leon killed. However, Leon was pretty sure the second option wasn't the case. He found several bodies intact, after all.

"I wonder what it will be this time... A turtle was carrying Celsius' temple on its back, now would be what? A whale?"

If that was the case, Leon doubted that he would need Mana Dominion's help. Although his eyes weren't that good underwater, it was impossible not to notice such a massive thing moving.

After exploring for quite a while, Leon noticed that there was no sign of small animals in the ocean. Most likely, the sea-snakes devoured even the small fish. Suddenly, Leon felt a presence under him. It was massive and powerful. So, that caught Leon by surprise. He looked below, surprised, but didn't find anything aside from a coral reef.

"Could it be?"

Leon approached the coral reef and eventually found an underwater cave. However, when he approached, suddenly, a pair of eyes appeared in the middle of the coral reef. Leon almost shit his pants, because that scared the shit out of him. The eyes of that thing were bigger than Leon's body. It was an ancient eagle ray, so old that would spend a massive amount of time sleeping underwater that it gave time for a coral reef growing on its back and to become a sort of disguise.

"It must also have Mana Concealment... there is no way that such a disguise would work against every single other monster on the oceans."

While Leon was thinking about that, the creature started to swim away from him. Despite its size, it was quite big and not violent. It didn't even try to attack Leon, after all. Regardless, after returning to the surface to fill his Mana Barrier with air, Leon used Transfer and appeared inside the cave.

Moving around inside the underwater cave wasn't easy since everything was so dark, and Leon couldn't use any spell because it could damage the temple or the massive monster, his Mana Barrier bumped against the walls of the place more than a few times, and that made his mana decrease. Regardless, Leon didn't know how he would be able to talk with the spirit of water, underwater, and inside the Mana Barrier... he could only pray that they would reach some sort of agreement after talking with their eyes.
