Soon, morning came, and Leon had a clear view of his home country. However, everything in every direction was the same... destroyed cities, destroyed vehicles, and the grass was covering everything. Basically, it looked like the cities were made of lego and the dragons didn't like to see those pieces so organized... they destroyed every single building that it was taller than ten meters. As if that wasn't enough, the number of monsters in that region was ridiculous. Leon avoided all the monsters on the land, but in the skies, he had no choice but to kill pterodactyls, harpies, and even beasts that only had one eye, and their eyes had almost the size of their heads...

"To think there are harpies here too... well, I should feel grateful that I can't see signs of dragons."

To save mana, Leon decided to use his sword as much as possible, he wasn't skilled, but his sword added with the strength of his arms was enough to kill those, one by one... the sooner he gets used to that the better. He could control his spears since he created them, but he couldn't infuse his mana in that sword, so he had no choice but to use it with his own hands. At least until Leon learns the true telekinesis.

At noon, Leon finally arrived at his hometown... or at least, what was left of his hometown. There was nothing to be seen; everything was destroyed and became just a huge pile of rubble. Leon flew around, trying to find where his home was supposed to be, but it was impossible. There wasn't a single landmark that could help him localize himself. Monster destroyed some parts of his city, but human hands doomed it...

Suddenly, Leon felt his body becoming sluggish. He knew that feeling; he felt that a lot in the island when he barely could see his progress... it was depression. Somewhere in his head, Leon recognized the fact that he would never live a normal life again, but only that day, he confirmed that.

"Why..." Leon asked no one.

It was a pain to control the thin layer of earth under his feet, so Leon stopped flying and just sat down in the middle of the city. Suddenly, monsters started to appear, trolls, golems, velociraptors, and even wolves that had the same size of the Frozen Dire Wolf... Leon began to wonder if it wouldn't easy just to give up. He could bet that those monsters could kill him before he could even feel the pain.

"Ah... not yet." Leon got up.

Leon wanted to believe that he got mentally stronger, but once again, he confirmed that wasn't true. Now and then, he felt like that on the island, but after leaving that place, the first setback made him feel like that. Like he had worked for nothing..

It was useless, but Leon massacred the monsters. They weren't the ones who pushed the button, but they were also to be blamed for the state of his hometown—besides, the fewer monsters, the better. After using the monsters to relieve his stress a little, Leon flew above the city looking for any clue, but he only found bones of monsters and humans.

"I guess there is nothing for me here.. I will have to look for them while I also look for clues of those who killed Makoto's son."

Leon headed Northeast, toward Las Vegas. However, before he could reach his destination, it got dark. Since it would be too suspicious if he shows up in the middle of the night. Leon decided to camp in the middle of nowhere since even small buildings like gas stations and hotels between cities got destroyed and the number of monsters in the small cities was too high. Along that night, Leon only got attacked a few times, despite that, he didn't manage to fall asleep. He couldn't forget the image of his hometown completely destroyed. The bastard who nuked Leon's hometown didn't use an ordinary one; he used a hydrogen bomb. A bomb capable of disintegrating even bones, Leon noticed that because he didn't find any signs of bones near the center of the city where there was a vast crater.

"Forget about it.. I have to find my family and the criminals Makoto wants. I don't have time to things like revenge.."

Since Leon spent years studying abroad and four years on the island, he hadn't many memories of his old friends or neighbors. There was no point in thinking about them or looking for the person who caused their demise, Leon decided to follow the advice he gave to Makoto..

When morning came, Leon moved toward Las Vegas. Although he didn't have a map, he quickly found it. The city was immense, after all. Unfortunately, his timing was terrible. A horde of monsters was attacking the Southside of the city.

"Me and my luck.. I don't have time for this damn it."

A few dozen survivors were fighting the horde, but it wasn't nearly enough to stop them. Harpies, desert wolves, sand slimes, and those monsters which had their bodies in the shape of an eye were attacking. The survivors were strong; they could cut the necks of those wolves and kill the slimes in a single strike. But due to the harpies and eye-ball monsters who could attack with Wind Blades and lightning attacks, they were losing the fight.

"Well, if I help them, perhaps I can obtain the information I need."

Leon didn't want to play a hero, it was too uncomfortable, but he would do anything to find information about his family.
