Once leon was absolutely certain that neither glenda or the baby growing in her belly lacked for anything he headed out to the beacon lake. his goal was whatever was there that drew the surrounding grim and had apparently been unaffected by the nuking leon had done right above it. besides ozpin not even salem was aware of what relic was stored beneath beacon merely that there was one. salem had her people digging into the hard bottom of the lake roughly below the area ozpins office once stood but it was slow going.
Thankfully the strange "heat" that the grim went into ended a few weeks ago so salem didn't need to ignore her forces any longer to hide from the grim. she graciously replaced cinders lost arm and leg with grim versions since despite cinder enraging leon she had technically completed her original mission. salem had made sure to have regular contact with her forces after that to prevent any other misunderstandings from happening. salem had noticed the hatred that cinder was harboring towards leon but when cinder tried to suggest attacking vale and the new beacon academy salem scolded her harshly.
Salem's agents in vale had informed her of how protective and caring leon was towards the headmistress of the new beacon academy who apparently was bearing his child and she knew that cinders plan was no different from suicide with extra steps. salem had to admit that she was rather jealous of glenda goodwitch who went from being mostly insignificant to being one of the single most sensitive people in the world at the turn of a dime because of leon. instead of cinders original hope salem instead sent her towards vacuo to get the relic under that academy after she had made a deal with raven brawnwen who had the maiden needed for it.
Leon could see the energy of whatever the thing below the lake was only when he activated his mangekyou and even then it was very faint. this faintness wasn't from the item being weak but rather from leon being unqualified to lock onto it's energy with his eyes. this realization surprised leon greatly and made him curious as to what exactly ozpin could have hidden below his academy. unlike salem's people however leon drew the attention of the still recovering wyvern that recognized him in an instant.
This made leon suspicious since he had originally assumed that the wyvern simply hadn't noticed the people at the lake because it was trying to recover but this proved that wrong. something simply didn't add up with this situation and leon didn't know what. 'not that it really matters in the face of overwhelming power' leon thought with a malicious grin at the wyvern that was charging a breath attack. in an instant leon used rakurai to slam the wyverns mouth shut the moment it tried to launch it's attack. the furious flames burst inside the grims throat since it had nowhere to go causing severe internal damage.
The wyvern ignored this to fling leon off of it before snapping at him with it's jaws making leon used rakurai again to avoid it. 'not as hard as before but i still need to be careful not to needlessly get hit and waste life force.' he thought seriously. merely having the mangekyou active was burning through his lifeforce quickly as it struggled to prevent the damage to his eyes that the cursed state did. leon summoned his susanoo and slammed a glowing gray fist into the wyvern in retaliation for it's attempted attack knocking lose a tooth.
The wyvern roared and charged at the massive full body susanoo with it's legs since it couldn't fly anymore. It was a brutal slugfest between leon and the wyvern but leon held out long enough to land a killing blow. leon deactivated his mangekyou and landed on the ground covered in sweat and panting as the exp and life force of the wyvern flowed into him. compared to any other grim he had ever killed the wyverns life force and exp were of a whole different quality not to mention quantity.
