Dimensional Descent

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Streaks of black and silver launched across the Lab Setting.

Leonel usually kept the Lab Setting exceptionally tidy. His father's blueprints were always neatly arranged, the ores he used were always placed within the snowglobes after he was finished, and any scraps he had remaining had their own place as well.

However... the Lab Setting was currently an absolute mess.

Leonel's Craft table was overturned. His father's blueprints were scattered and by some miracle managed to remain undamaged. At the same time, the snowglobes which were once neatly arranged by category and type were sprawled all along the ground.

The two clashing entities continued without a care in the world as though not noticing Leonel's presence at all.

Leonel's brow twitched several times..

"HEY!"

Finally unable to take it, he roared out in full force, fusing his Spirit Pressure into his voice.

As expected, it completely disrupted the rhythm of the two fighting streaks of light, causing them to fall over.

After rebounding along the ground, the streak of silver shot toward Leonel, landing on his shoulder and bouncing up and down as though venting its frustration.

By that point, the identities of the two became obvious to Leonel. The silver streak was Leonel's Metal Spirit Familiar, Little Tolliver. As for the black streak... well...

The little mink landed on the ground, a dissatisfied expression on its little face as though it was unhappy with the sudden change of events.

It shook its little head, clearing its vision. When it saw Leonel, its eyes lit up with a hint of fondness.

Leonel frowned. "What's going on? Is it possible to overshoot the entry limit of a Zone?"

Leonel took out the dictionary. He was extremely confused at this moment.

First, there was the fact the little mink exited the snowglobe without his permission. This was already questionable. But, beyond that, this Zone should have a limit of 12 individuals.
