After arriving in the Training Center in his disguise, Leo set up the Magic Absorbing Dummy.

'I didn't have the time to fully test this passive skill out in the Wilderness, but now that I am back, I can test it as much as I want.'

Leo started off throwing a single Void Spear at the dummy, which immediately pulsated with a dark red light, suggesting the Void Spear was far above 5,000 magic power.

Then he threw another Void Spear.

And another.

On his fourth try, the moment he released his mana, one Void Spear appeared, then came another almost instantly after. However, Leo didn't multicast.

When he saw this, Leo immediately turned to look at his mana.

'Only 200 mana was used just now even though two Void Spears had happened. This means that Double Cast doesn't consume more mana when it activates. This is great news.' Leo smiled to himself after confirming this.

And in order to make sure he wasn't mistaken, he would repeat this several more times until he was absolutely certain.

Leo turned to look at Lilith and asked her, "What do you think of my casting speed?"

"Huh? What about it?" She asked.

"Is it noticeably faster than before?"

"Do it a few more times."

Leo proceeded to throw several more Void Spears with barely any pauses in-between.

"What do you think?" He looked at her again.

"Hmmm" Lilith rubbed her chin with a pondering look on her face.

"It's hard to tell since it's just a Tier 2 magic spell, and as far as I'm aware, you've always been this fast. Why don't you try something different? Instead of throwing Void Spears, try overcharging it. Your cast speed also affects your overcharging rate."

"Alright, I'll try it now."

After taking a deep breath, Leo began overcharging his Void Spear until he could no longer do so, and in less than ten seconds, he'd managed to fully charge the Void Spear.

He casually tossed the overcharged Void Spear at the Magic Absorbing Dummy.

"Ah! Don't do that" Lilith suddenly panicked for some reason.

However, it was too late, as the Void Spear had already left Leo's grasp.

BOOM!

For the first time ever, the Magic Absorbing Dummy did not absorb the impact, and the Void Spear caused a pretty big explosion that shook the entire room.

When the explosion subsided, Leo looked at the Magic Absorbing Dummy, but it looked completely different like it was burnt. Indeed, the Magic Absorbing Dummy had suddenly turned completely black, almost as though it had spent a day in the cremator.

"What happened?" Leo asked Lilith, who seemed to know it was going to happen before he even threw the Void Spear.

"This quality of Magic Absorbing Dummy can only absorb so much mana at once. If you overload its capacity, it will break," she said.

"Oh I never had this problem before, so I didn't really think about it." Leo mumbled after realizing the truth.

"The limit is probably around 20,000 to 25,000 magic power." Lilith then said.

"I see Anyways, it took me 9 seconds to fully charge the Void Spear just now, which is twice as fast as previously, not to mention that my magic power had increased significantly since then, so it's actually much faster than that." Leo said a moment later.

"That's pretty good." Lilith agreed.

Sometime later, Leo stopped his experiments and started practicing for real.

Since his mana regeneration is so high now, it was almost impossible to experience mana fatigue no matter how many times he spammed his magic spells.

Eventually, Leo gave up on casting Void Spears and started focusing on increasing his skeleton summon skills.

Since he needed 5,000 mana to summon 50 skeleton warriors and 2,500 magic to summon 5 skeleton mages, he would summon as many skeleton servants as he could before deactivating them and summoning them again, and every time he did this he would lose 7,500 mana, which was more than his mana regeneration could handle. Of course, since his Double Cast works on all magic spells, some of his summons wouldn't cost mana at times, but it wasn't consistent enough to let his mana regeneration fully recover his mana.

After training in this manner for several hours, his Summon Skeleton Warriors reached Mastery Rank B, and his Summon Skeleton Mages reached Mastery Rank C.

Not only did his Mastery Ranks increase, but he also completed a quest for spending 1,000,000 mana.

In fact, he'd used over 3,000,000 mana in just a few hours, so he finished the quest three times, reaching its limit.

His quest upgraded after his 3rd completion.

'Hmm? Elite Monster?' Leo raised an eyebrow after seeing this new quest.

He decided to ask Lilith.

"Hey, Lilith. What's an elite monster?"

"An elite monster? They're basically mutated monsters. They're exceptionally rare as well as incredibly powerful. For example, an elite monster of an F-Rank monster could be as powerful as a C-Rank monster. Furthermore, their mana cores contain a special kind of mana that is widely sought after."

"Mutated monsters? Can any monster out there become an elite monster?" Leo then asked.

"Yes. Any kind of monster can spawn as an elite monster, but as I said, they're exceptionally rare. Perhaps one out of a million monsters will be an elite monster."

"One out of a million?" Leo swallowed nervously. He's killed hundreds of monsters with Nina during the training course, yet they haven't encountered an elite monster.

Sometime later, Leo returned the broken Magic Absorbing Dummy to one of the workers there.

"...Seriously?" The worker looked back and forth between Leo and the burnt dummy.

"Sorry I didn't know it had a limit and accidentally broke it."

'He accidentally broke a Magic Absorbing Dummy?! These dummies can absorb up to 20,000 magic power with ease, and he accidentally broke it?! Even an Elite Student would need to deliberately try to break it if they want to damage it! Just who is this student? How come I don't recognize someone with such talents?' The worker wondered to himself with a dazed look on his face.
