It was only after dozens more of passes between the four women that Leo finally found it enough. He didn't care anymore to save face for Cassandra, Elizabeth, Ash, and Charlotte as he barges out of the place. 

Although it was great to be treated like that by a group of beautiful women, really. But he realized that if he let them continue on, then they won't know when to stop causing him trouble. And as a man himself as well, he obviously can't just let the women keep on bullying him, right? There would of course be times when they can, but naturally not almost all the time. 

"Hey, Leo!" Cassandra was the first one to call out Leo's name when he was leaving them.

"I think we have just caused him to be angry at us..." Elizabeth said to the others with worry. 

"Don't include me," Angel said before she continued to sip on her champagne. 

"That might indeed be the case." Ash agreed to Elizabeth's assumption.

"Remove the word 'Might', because I'm definitely sure that he thought we have already gone too far." Charlotte said before quickly following after Leo. 

Seeing this, Cassandra, Elizabeth, Angel, and Ash quickly followed behind as well.

However, it was already too late for them to chase after Leo because he has already hidden away from them. 

.....

At this moment, Leo can't help breathing a sigh of relief when he saw the 5 women passed by his hiding spot. 

Leaving because he had enough of them wasn't actually the only reason he wanted to leave. The main reason was he wants to go and cultivate somewhere else where no one can disturb him. 

Looking back at when he was fighting against the Black organization, he had mentioned a lot of problems he had noticed with himself. 

First, he hasn't yet fully adapted to being a Mage, hence causing him to easily get tired when combining Magic with his combat style. 

Second, he hasn't yet formed a Star after breaking through to the 1 Star level. Stars are one of the most important parts of being a Mage as it would help them tremendously. That's why he needs to form a Star before fighting against the Silver royal family. Though, he needs to look for some books to help him with that because teacher Marvin hasn't taught them yet how to form a Star. 

Lastly, he also needs to confirm whether his Elementals would indeed breakthrough to 1 Star level once he consolidates his cultivation and if not, then he would look for a way how to help them. His Elementals were one of the most important things in his arsenal right now. So, he needs to further strengthen them to increase his combat capability. 

"Although the Commander's Palace has been destroyed beyond recognition after experiencing two battles, there should still be a library somewhere around here, right?" Leo asked himself while looking around the destroyed Commander's Palace. 

One fact about him was, he is not yet knowledgeable about Magic, cultivation, Mana, and other related stuffs. That's why he needs to look for books to help him. 

Moments later, after moving the destroyed rumbles blocking his path to the side with the help of the Earth Elemental he had summoned, Leo finally found the library. 

Right now, the library was in a complete mess, with books practically scattered everywhere. Some books even had their pages destroyed beyond recognition, which is really unfortunate because he can no longer use them, or he can actually, but he can only use them as a reference at best in order to not possibly make mistakes.

"This would be troublesome..." Leo shook his head helplessly. If he wants to learn more about cultivation, with the current status of the library right now, he would need to look for the book twice the amount of effort he needed when everything was still alright. To be honest, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack. 

But obviously, every problem has a solution. And the solution to his current problem right now was very simple...

Quickly, Leo unsummoned the Earth Elemental. Afterwards, he quickly began summoning Wind Elementals, specifically 20 Wind Elementals.

What he needs right now was manpower to help him look for the books that would help him, and 20 Wind Elementals was the simplest answer to that problem.

"Go look for any cultivation related book. Magic spell books would also be fine if you can find any." Leo ordered. 

The 20 Wind Elementals nodded their heads before quickly flying away to begin looking for the related books.

"Now then, let's set up a comfortable place to read the books." Leo said as he began looking around for a table and a chair. And also a lamp for light, because reading in a dark place is really not good and not to mention very troublesome. 

Cringggkkk!

Puff!

Whooooosh!

Moments later after finishing setting up the place where he would be reading the books, a Wind Elemental finally arrived and handed Leo a book. 

"Oh, this is great!" Leo exclaimed in delight. The book handed by the Wind Elemental was coincidentally what he needed the most right now, specifically how to form a Star.

Quickly opening the book, Leo soon after began reading in focus.

"Stars, or otherwise know as, Mana Cores. Stars are the foundation of every Mage in breaking through to the next level in their cultivation, hence making them a must need to have. Forming a Star needs a lot of focus and concentration in order for a Mage to complete."

"But first, in order to form a Star, a Mage needs to break through to the next level of their cultivation. Like, for example, from No Star to 1 Star level. This is a requirement because only when the body is compatible with the Star to reside in could a Mage form a Star. Why? Because a Star stores plenty of manas, and if the body can't handle this amount of Mana, it would become disastrous for not only their body but also their consciousness. In fact, there are already plenty of cases where Mages die due to a surplus of Mana in their body. Though there are also cases where they can forcefully breakthrough due to having a surplus of Mana. But it's a very rare occurrence and is not recommended by many because it is very risky."

"Second, to form a Star, the Mage needs to fill their consciousness with Mana so as to have enough Mana to form the Star. Gathering Mana while forming the Star is also possible, but it requires an even greater focus and concentration. It also requires them to have the ability to do multi-tasking of not only two tasks but three, specifically gathering the continuous supply of Mana to form a Star that the Mage is satisfied with, suppressing the continuous inflow of Mana so that it will not cause any damages to the consciousness in the process, and the formation of the Star itself. So, if the Mage can't do those 3 requirements, then it is much better to not try it as it might just cause them to become a cripple, or worst just literally die."

"Third, to form a Star, a Mage needs to first suppress the Mana from not damaging their consciousness. Then, when the Mage is done with that, they need to gather all of the Mana they have gathered in a single point. This would be the beginning in forming the Stars."

"Fourth, when all the Mana has been used, a big ball of Mana which would soon after be called the Star would be formed. But, just like what is mentioned, it is not yet the complete Star, rather it is just a big ball of Mana."

"Fifth, to make this big ball of Mana into a Star, the Mage would need to suppress this ball of Mana, until all of the Mana is merged with each other. In this process, the impurities would also be pushed off from the ball of Mana, hence the Mage would need to push out the impurities away from the ball of Mana in order for it not to affect your Star by tainting it with impurities."

"Sixth, when the Mage is done with that, the Star would no longer separate from one another. By then, the Mage doesn't require to do anything else aside from cleaning their consciousness from the impurities because it would be the big ball of Mana itself that will slowly form something seemingly like a container or rather a shell for itself, hence finally completing the last step in forming the Star."

"If the Mage wants to further strengthen this Star, then they can simply consume some Magical resources in the process of forming the shell for the Star. It has been estimated that the Star would complete its form after 48 hours, normally. But if the Mage wanted the Star to become an even more powerful Star, then it would take weeks to complete, or depending on how much Magical resources they have consumed. Simply put, it's totally up to the Mage on how powerful the Star he wants to have, and the time requires for its completion would also depend on how powerful the Star would be."

"Take note, there is always a limit to everything. Despite the Mage being able to consume Magical resources to make their Star much more powerful, if their consciousness can't no longer handle this Star, then this would result in them becoming brain-dead, specifically, they would be in a vegetable-state forever, or at least until their consciousness can finally handle the said Star."

Leo closed the book after he finished reading it. The book also includes pictures and other more information to some related stuffs. But it wasn't important so he didn't bother reading those parts since it would just be a waste of time. Though there were some that he had indeed read, but just didn't bother reading it out loud. 

"Then let's begin forming the Star!"
