"There is two of them this round."
Leon for 2 years looked around corpses and possessed them than took their memories, maybe because he was a ghost and he doesn't feel any fear towards corpses. While he was taking their memories he also got used to it, his mentality doesn't got affected by corpses remaining wills.
After possessing the two corpses and digesting the memories, he looked to the sky depressed
"After two years I didn't found any soul strengthening techniques, maybe I should go the center of the forest."
Leon was satisfied with knowledge he gained for two years and his mentality also changed due to experiences which he absorbed from the deads. But because he was a spiritual being he couldn't exercise the cultivation techniques. He also learned a lot of things about Blackwood forest, it was not always filled with ghosts and death mana but it was lively thousands years ago. There was a school which educated magus but because of a mishap during a world conquest, it has turned a forbidden land. At the center of the forest there is the main building of the school, Leon was hesitant to go there, he doesn't know what could he encounter there and which dangers will he be faced. From the memories that he got, he knew the destroyed school was a colossus at the time.
He also couldn't leave the forest, for that he needs a body. And the bodies he possessed without vitality will rot outside of the forest. Thinking this was magical world, he only had one chance to have functional body might be in the center of the forest. Steeling his resolve, he took the spatial bags and tossed inside his bag. For this two years, he got a small fortune for himself from looting dead bodies, but none of he could use at the moment. Not just materials he also gathered the experiences of the whom he possessed.
After taking all he has he started to his journey towards the center, While he was walking sometimes he would stop and got used to the density of the death mana then he would continue to walk. After walking three days he saw outline of the school. The schools outer wall crumbled and the sign of the main gate fell down. Because death mana abundant here the plants also scarce there was a lot of dried up plants but also there was other kind of magical plants growing. Some plants adopted to the new environment and survived.
Slowly entering main with guards up, he saw tens of corpses lying around the garden. They didn't look like they are dead but sleeping. Leon looking to them but he didn't tried to possess any of them but he wanted to find the library and find any body construction technique. He slowly looked around and if he find any valuable things he would took them into his spatial bag, while he was collecting the loots he saw something that shocked him to his core. A giant lying on the ground.
But the weird thing was the giant was full of death mana, after seeing this Leon got curious about what happened when they attempt to world conquer. Looking around of the giant he saw a elderly man also lying down and from the garments he could tell that he was at least a teacher at the school.
"Maybe I would learned what happened back then by possessing him than I would find treasury and library easily by searching through his memories."
Leon walk to the corpse and sat down than he leaved the body and started to possess the corpse. When his soul entirely entered the body unfamiliar memories started flash inside of his mind. He didn't immersed in the memories, after a while he cut of the stream of memories and passed his time by digesting them. This was a technique that he learned after two years stealing others memories. After fully digesting, he continued. After continuous stopping and continuing, he finished and he was shocked when he learned what happened to this school.
When the school find a coordination of a new world, they wanted to colonize it, the school always done that but for the this time, things didn't go well for them. Inhabitants of the world didn't pose much threat to the school, they've destroyed their powerhouses and they were so close to dominate it but some students woken up the giant who was sleeping in that world. Giants powers was immeasurable a lot of students and teachers died under his attacks, soon the giant found the portal and came to Aroan world and started to his destruction attacks didn't made any damage to him then school-head used an ancient weapon to kill it. The giant died but aftershock of the weapon also killed any living creature around the school and turned the land a place filled death mana.
After learning truth, Leon shook his head and only said "unlucky fellows" for them.
The body he possessed was the school-head who killed the giant and in his memories he found out whereabouts of the library and treasury, he also found out that school had a body construction technique in the library but before that Leon got curious about the giants memories maybe after he acquired a body he might lose his ability to search memories. Then he slowly got near the giant and sat down and leaved the body then his soul entered the giant. After he inherited everything, Leon was shocked to find out; the giant was a Titan and the titans have inheritance in only body tempering. The titan inheritance was spiritually connected to their bloodlines, actually the titan babies didn't much differ from humans after they started to cultivation their bodies can change their sizes and have immeasurable strength. The titan body tempering is the best body tempering that he found, body tempering had 5 layers and the giant only completed the first layer, but even with that he could destroy a colossus school despite his death.
Previously Leon thinking about being on the road to become a mana magus but when he found this inheritance his views has changed. But he still doesn't want to let go mana magus road, he wants to become a dual magus. After taking memories for two years he knows a lot of mana cultivation techniques and he also have theoretical knowledge about them too. After he received the inheritance he was thinking about creating a mana cultivation technique that would go with his titan cultivation technique. But first he needed to clear the treasury and found the body construction technique in the library.
