Leo quickly noticed that his right palm was suddenly absorbing something, though it was slow, it was still something that he can feel.
Observing closely in what it was absorbing, Leo then became astonished as he realizes that it was actually absorbing the Mana around his surrounding.
The Mana within the Wind!
Wind Mana!
It wasn't only that! As Leo's palm continues to absorb the Wind Mana around his surrounding, something was also slowly forming inside his consciousness!
It started from its feet, leg, waist, body, and arm until its head was finally formed. After finally finishing forming, Leo quickly studied it. He soon shockingly discovered that it was some kind of entity made of wind. Its entire body was covered in wind that somewhat looked like a Human.
Realization downed Leo immediately, Wind Elemental!
It was actually an Elemental, a type of Magical creature, but much more powerful than the former. Elementals are also called Magical Entity. Their bodies were made of a specific element from which they were born from. The most important thing of all about this Elemental, this Magical Entity, were beings that won't die as long as it has enough stable supply of the specific Mana it's made of.
A Fire Elemental would never die as long as it has a stable source of Fire Mana, Wind Elemental would never die with Wind Mana in the air, etc...
However, this type of Magical Entity was super rare in the Silver Kingdom simply because these entities were the epitome of Disaster!
Specifically, a Natural Disaster!
It has another name called Natures Wrath. The Elementals were Entity formed when the Mana around the environment continue to merge with each other because some kind of phenomenon was gathering them to a single place. This phenomenon specifically only happened when there was currently a natural disaster happening in an area, hence it was called Natures Wrath.
Leo became dumbfounded, ��Why the heck is this thing formed inside my consciousness?!"
While Leo was questioning the reason behind its mysterious formation, the Wind Elemental, on the other hand, has suddenly disappeared from his consciousness and has then appeared out of thin air in front of him.
Leo became panicked when the Wind Elemental appeared out in front of him.
It was a 2 meter tall Wind Elemental. Its entire body was made out of the wind, while some wisp of wind was continuously circling around its whole body. It had a formed like that of a Human being, and it even had a head that had somewhat formed a face.
Yes, it has a freaking face!
Though the face was hard to distinguish, it was still like a Human face, more or less.
The Elemental was just standing in front of Leo, doing nothing aside from staring at him. It was just staring at him, nothing more, nothing less. It wasn't wrecking any kind of havoc such as what he had heard about them; it wasn't even affecting anything in his room. It was just staring at him silently with its hollow eyes.
Since it wasn't doing anything Leo suddenly thought, "Since it was formed inside my mind, then maybe I could control it!"
Leo's eyes lit up with such a thought. He quickly said to it, "Pick up that vase!" He pointed towards the vase on the top of his study table.
Just like what Leo had thought... The Wind Elemental soon after started moving towards the vase. When it arrived in front of the vase, it also followed what he had said as it slowly and carefully picked up the vase until it reaches its elbow height.
Leo became overjoyed while looking at the Wind Elemental! He had unexpectedly gained such a powerful ability! With this, he could create disasters for himself! However, he still needed to check its power, though...
No pie would suddenly fall out from the sky unless someone threw it towards that person on purpose. Hence, Leo ordered the Wind Elemental to follow him outside to test its power, in order for him to know whether what he had received was really a delicious pie or was just a pie made out of plastic. Since the Elemental was born from his consciousness, then it should not be as powerful as those born from natural disasters, Natures Wrath!
It was a good thing that there was currently no one in the Manor at this moment when Leo got outside. Because of his change of plans yesterday, Butler Xiao and the others have left really early to adapt to their new duties. The Manor also doesn't have any maids because Lep doesn't have enough money to pay for hiring them. Because of that, he can freely test his new given ability now, unhindered and without anyone around.
Also, Cassandra was still nowhere to be found at this moment. Maybe she was still sleeping or had gone out to tour around Heart city. No one knows, and Leo was also not interested in knowing such detail since he was specifically focused on his new ability.
Arriving in the Manor's backyard, Leo immediately spotted some barbells that he had always used. It was a group of barbells in a wooden rack with each having different weights ranging from 10kg, 20kg, 30kg, 40kg, and 50kg.
Spotting those barbells, Leo quickly ordered the Wind Elemental to carry the 10kg weight first. Just like what he had expected, the Wind Elemental carried the barbell effortlessly.
Next, the 20kg. He could see clearly that it was already putting in some strength when lifting the barbell.
Next, the 30kg. The Elemental could still lift it, but with half or more than of its total full strength.
Next, the 40kg. The Elemental could still lift it. But this time, Leo could clearly see that it was at its limit.
"So 40kg is its limit in carrying an object. Next, explosive strength!" Leo said as he ordered the Elemental to punch a punching bag.
The same as the Barbells, each punching bag has different weights ranging from 50kg, 75kg, and 100kg.
When the Elemental punch the 50Kg punching bag, it could only make it move forward for a little more than half a step. So, Leo immediately determined that its explosive strength was maybe just around 30-40kg. He wasn't really a professional at determining such a thing, hence he was only making logical and reasonable guesses after the test.
"Next, its defensive capability. Move over there, my Elemental!" Leo ordered the Wind Elemental to move in front of a sack with a target logo drawn on its middle. The target sack was specifically 10 meters away from Leo.
The moment after the Wind Elemental moved in front of the shooting sack, Leo on the other hand went to grab a bow and arrow before quickly shooting it towards the Wind Elemental.
The moment the arrow hit the Wind Elemental, it just went through its body, while leaving a hole in where the arrow went through its body.
"Oh, it doesn't have any?" Leo said in disappointment. Such a powerful creature actually can't defend itself? Weapons that were thrown at it could easily damage it, no matter how hard it tries to defend itself.
Leo looked at the Wind Elemental, again. While staring at the hole that isn't regenerating itself at this moment. He quickly fell into deep thought. Based on what he had heard from the others before, Elementals were somewhat like an undying being as it would never die as long as it has a stable source of Mana with the same element of what it was made of.
However, Leo noticed clearly that the Elemental wasn't regenerating itself to repair the damaged part despite having Wind Mana around its surrounding.
"Stable source..."
"The Elemental was formed due to my right palm absorbing the Wind Mana around the air, so..." Leo said as he quickly made his right palm absorbed the Wind Mana around the surrounding after realizing something.
At first, Leo was having a hard time trying to absorb the Mana, since in the first place it was his first time, hence he didn't know-how. But soon, he realized that it was actually like absorbing the Mana in the Mana stone before. Just like what he had anticipated, the moment his right palm started absorbing Wind Mana, the hole that the Wind Elemental received from the arrow had also started regenerating.
"Since I can regenerate, can I also create more Elementals?" Leo thought while feeling excited about his idea.
Quickly, Leo made his right palm absorb Wind Mana, again. However, nothing had happened this time, unlike the last time. Also, nothing had happened to the Wind Elemental that he had summoned too, and neither did something happened in his mind. He could not create another Wind Elemental in his consciousness, nor could he affect his existing Wind Elemental after fully healing the hole before.
"Maybe it's because I'm still weak." Leo said after he stopped absorbing the Wind Mana around his surrounding.
Leo thought that it was reasonable that he cannot summon more Elementals, since if he can indeed summon more, he would be destroying the balance of the Celestial World.
Imagine Leo, despite only being a Mage for around 2 days, could summon unlimited numbers of Elementals. Though they were surely weak and nothing to compare to those Elementals formed by Natural Disasters, it was still a force to be recognized. There were a lot of strategies to use when someone had the numerical advantage, such as zerg tactics, chipping enemy forces, and etc...
Moreover, the fact that Leo can continue to summon such Elementals as long as he has sufficient Mana around his surrounding should also be considered, too.
It would really destroy the rules and balance of the Celestial World!
Leo could just shake his head at this moment to end finally his full of expectations thoughts. Since he needed to become strong, then he will just become strong. There was nothing wrong with that. Even if he can summon unlimited Elementals, powerful Mages or people would just target him directly than bother with killing his weak Elementals.
"I need to become stronger!" Leo said before he unsummoned the Wind Elemental.
