Dimensional Descent

CRACK!

Leonel hurriedly retracted his hand, but it was already too late.

A massive fissure snaked across the crystal, expelling with it a hardly noticeable fog.

The moment Leonel retracted his hand, the blinding lights lingered for a moment before quickly receding. Soon, his figure was clearly seen once more, allowing several pairs of eyes to fall on his body.

Lionus, especially, was speechless. Everything happened too fast for the others to get a clear understanding of what had happened, but he had been able to catch a faint inkling.

The reality was that having just a single affinity was impossible. Most people had many different affinities. The only difference was in how those affinities compared. In fact, the truth of the matter was that much of the reason affinities were so low among the majority of the population was because these differing affinities would clash with one another, making it more difficult to excel in one.

What set Childes apart was their ability to filter out the noise. Ironically, their affinities for secondary or tertiary elements was much lower than their counterparts, but in return, they gained great affinity in just one aspect.

However, Lionus was certain that what he had seen was correct. In that brief moment, Leonel formed a blinding dark gold halo.

This should have all been fine. After all, the formation of a halo was the marker of a Childe. To be both a Holy Son and a Childe… Leonel would be the only one in their entire Kingdom! Even Lionus' own father wasn't considered a Childe of the Light Element when he first started. It was only after years of meditation and practice that he reached this standard.

But… The issue was that dark gold wasn't the symbollic marker for the Light Element… It was the marker for the Earth Element!

Lionus' brows involuntarily trembled.

Earth Element was actually obscene to the point of directly suppressing his Light Element. Not only that, but its affinity was so far beyond the standard of a Childe that

the Earth Element should have been a dirty yellowish brown color. But that was most definitely a bright bronze or dark gold color… That means that Leonel's not only an Earth Elemental Childe, but

finally broke the silence. But the word he spoke caused Lionus to be speechless. Eventually, the Crown Prince laughed bitterly and shook
