Dimensional Descent

As much as Leonel wanted to ignore everything else around him and focus on the monuments, there was only so long he could dodge Syl.

Not long after Leonel found out the truth about the monuments and was planning on travelling through them one by one, the remaining seven members of the Keafir family's selections finally made it through the gates.

Aside from the petite girl who had confronted Leonel initially who became a Royal, the rest were either Generals or Soldiers. With all of them now here, Leonel couldn't continue to stall Syl and had no choice but to follow her through the Eastern Sector and into the more luxurious regions.

"Jerach, why are you following us?" Syl said, seemingly a bit displeased.

Apparently, she still hadn't forgotten about the words Jerach had said to take advantage of her earlier.

"Wherever Leonel goes, I go." Jerach said matter factly.

Leonel didn't refute this. If things went south, Jerach was maybe the only protection he had. He was under no delusions that he would be able to handle Syl's elder brother on his own.

Unless Heira had a way to contact her husband, it was unlikely that the Keafir family Heir was even aware of Leonel's existence. And, Leonel had a bad feeling that Heira wanted it this way.

Leonel wasn't oblivious. He knew of the underhanded tricks Heira was pulling behind the scenes. One of the things he was best at was reading people. And, he wasn't new to women being fond of him.

As a Five Star Quarterback, there were plenty of women, even those from noble families, who were willing to throw themselves at him. Even though the occupation wasn't as respected, that was only a matter of relativity. Not every woman would be able to find a husband from a Five Star Profession of high standing. And, as a quarterback, Leonel was guaranteed to become a very rich man in the future.
