Leon didn't have time to create steel spears, he could have created them earlier, but since the moment he discovered his hometown had been nuked, his mind stopped working like usual. That being said, Leon had to be careful. He didn't have potions or herbs with him so that he could run out of mana.

First, Leon decided to focus on the eye-ball monsters, their thunder attacks were powerful, but since their entire body was a weak spot, he knew he could kill them fast. After confirming that they could easily die after being hit by a single Water Bullet, Leon spammed that without remorse.

Eventually, the monsters noticed that something was attacking them from above. Soon, they saw Leon above them. Despite being able to fly, the eye-ball monsters were quite slow. Leon finished them before they could approach and attack him.

"I see... so their attacks have a certain range of effectivity."

Despite that, the tide of the battle didn't change. The number of monsters was too big, killing them one by one wouldn't be enough, Leon noticed that when he saw several survivors dying one by one. He needed an Area of Effect magic, but he didn't have one…

"Ah… I have one…"

Leon grabbed his sword and activated the skill hail. He focused on the range instead of power; he needed to slow down the monsters as much as possible, due to that, a massive cloud appeared above him and then hail started to fall. Leon didn't recognize the survivors as enemies, so the hail only hit the monsters and slowed them down significantly. The damage was meager, but the effects were powerful.

Noticing that the spell wasn't touching them, the survivors started the counter-attack. Thanks to the hail, survivors who had bows and similar weapons managed to hit the monsters with more ease. However, Hail only lasted for one minute, and Leon had to wait for another minute.

"Damn cooldown time! That is why I would rather learn the skill myself…"

Despite Leon's worries, the tide of the battle had already changed in the survivor's favor. Thanks to his skill, another group of survivors gained time to arrive and help. One minute later, when Leon used Hail again, the result of the battle was decided. The moment the flying monsters got slower, they lost one of their best weapons, their mobility. Without that, they couldn't offer any decent support. In just five minutes, a horde of two thousand monsters got wiped out. In the end, Leon didn't even have time to run out of mana, but he learned his lesson… it was time to learn an Area of Effect spell.

Regardless, the battle was over, but despite that, the survivors weren't celebrating, they were watching Leon cautiously. Leon slowly moved downward not to scare them, but the more he approached, the stronger the survivors held their weapons. Leon didn't look to be a stranger, but even if that was the case, it looked like survivors didn't like the visit of an outsider.

"Hello, I come in peace." Leon forced a smile. "Can I land without being attacked to death?"

"Who are you?"

historical

"What are you doing here?"

"Where do you came from?"

Instead of answering his question, the survivors asked their own questions, unlike Leon, they didn't try to be polite, but he was kind of used to that kind of behavior. It was a pain to introduce himself like the time in that port in Japan, but he had no other choice."

"My name is Leon; I'm from Phoenix in Arizona, and I'm looking for my family," Leon answered.

Leon made sure to hide the fact that he stayed in Japan for a few weeks. Otherwise, he would have a hard time finding the criminals Makoto wanted to punish. He also tried to hid his accomplishments since those were quite dubious, and he didn't want to prove himself to anyone again. He just wanted to find his family and be treated normally while looking for the criminals.

Despite his cautiousness, the survivors still looked at him dubiously. That kind of development was kind of making Leon tired, but he had to be patient. Perhaps the fact that Leon was flying and used such a massive spell made the survivors wary of him, but what was done was done.

While Leon was hoping for the situation to solve itself, a man who looked to be around Leon's age appeared. He had a red glaive on his back, and his muscles were quite well-forged. Despite his physique, that man looked a little familiar to Leon, but he couldn't tell why. He had short black hair, and his eyes were light-green… Leon felt like he had such a combination before, but again, he couldn't pinpoint where. Regardless, the man was showing a serious face. He had a few scars on his face, but it looked like he could have healed these scars but left there to make himself look more imposing.

However, Leon frowned when he saw the man's armor, it was light blue and it some areas, it made Leon think those had been made of scales. While Leon was thinking of that, that man stepped forward and let the soldiers behind.

"My men said your name is Leon, is that true?" The green-eyed man asked, furrowing his eyebrows.

,m "Yes, I'm from Phoenix, Arizona." Leon forgot about the armor.

"… Are you twenty-six years old?" The green-eyed man asked.

"Yes, how do you…" Leon frowned.

"Did you study abroad for four years, but then disappeared four years ago?" The green-eyed man asked.

"How do you know that?" Leon looked at that man, suspiciously.

"You have a sister and her name is Amanda, right?" The green-eyed man smirked.

"Who the hell are you?" Leon grabbed his sword.

"Hahaha, you are slow like always, Leon." The green-eyed man laughed. "Does the name Hector ring any bells?"

"Hector… Hector… Hector?" Leon frowned.

Leon finally understood why that man looked so familiar… he was Leon's best friend when he was in high school.
