It took Leon several hundred years, but he eventually mastered hundreds of spells and even learned how to use Plasma spells. However, the surprises didn't end there. When his alternate version learned something that Leon didn't know, he saw something unexpected.

"What the…" Leon frowned. "I can see how this skill works, but… it is not like I tested and practiced. So, how…"
That was strange… it wouldn't be weird if Leon learns a spell that let him learn the skills of his alternated versions, but he didn't learn that spell yet, and that was why he couldn't understand what was going on. At that point, his alternate version was probably as strong as Leon was when he took Sekundez's test. So, it wasn't weird that his alternated version could learn spells that Leon didn't learn yet.
Leon thought it was a bit soon for him, but that Leon began to hunt down and kill all the harvesters he found. However, after returning to Earth, he didn't find a single one of them, nor did he find other humans. The planet now only looked like a black marble that had no life and could explode at any moment. Seeing his home planet like that made Leon feel only more resolute on his revenge. So, he began to travel through the stars by using dungeons.
"Mmm… I wonder why he didn't find a single spirit," Leon frowned.
Again, it took a while since it was rare for a plane to reach the fifth stage of assimilation and still have survivors, but Leon found one that was on the verge of collapse. Just like before, dragons were rampaging and eating the few survivors left and right. Meanwhile, the harvesters were killing both inhabitants of that planet and dragons as if that was the world's greatest sport. Strangely enough, the people of that world resembled humans quite a bit. The only real difference was their pointy ears and the fact that all of them had red hair. Amidst that carnage, Leon found a single woman that was exploding the dragon's head with a single movement of her hands while she was also stopping the harvesters who were chasing the few survivors who were trying to leave the planet… that woman was Ilyana.
"Is this… her home planet?" Leon frowned. "If this isn't an illusion… then that means…"
Unlike the Ilyana, he knew, that one was a lot more savage. It was only obvious that someone sane wouldn't smile on the battlefield, but that Ilyana looked like a war goddess or a war demon since she was covered in dragon's blood from head to toe. However, since she wasn't as strong as Ilyana Leon knew, she eventually collapsed from overusing her mana. Despite the fact that she fought for who knows long, not a single of the survivors she fought to protect turned around to rescue her while falling on the ground. That was the complete opposite from that Leon's life. Leon fought hard but ultimately failed to protect those he loved, but in the end, those he tried to protect died to give him the chance to survive.
