Dimensional Descent

Leonel was quite speechless for a long while.

Aina looked down at the ring in her hand before looking toward Leonel's side profile. Though she could sense how surprised Leonel was as well, she also felt that this had to do more with him than her. It left her feeling quite curious.

But, when she suddenly remembered Leonel's words from earlier, she blushed and looked away as though unwilling to acknowledge the fact that she had been curious in the first place.

"Oh right, I also forgot to mention the last thing. The ring also asks as a life saving treasure, but it won't be activated quite yet. The first time it will activate is when the recruitment process is over. When that happens, the ring will glow.

"Once it begins to glow, you have a day to prepare. Within that day, you can activate the ring at any time and be transported directly to our Core World. That's the place you will register.

"After the registration process is over, the ring will be able to function normally. As long as it's charged, or depending on the level to which is has been charged, it can teleport its wearer to either a random location within range or to a set location."

Leonel was still quite absentminded during this explanation, but he understood the gist of it.

Regardless, for now, the abilities of the ring were useless to him until the registration process ended. Only then would it activate and begin to work normally.

"Is there no set date for the registration process to be over?" Aina asked.

"Ah, about this..." Sael sounded somewhat embarrassed. "... I will be honest. Normally, a place like Terrain wouldn't even be worthy of gaining one of our recruitment stations. But, we've been forced to widen our net recently due to various circumstances. It's much easier on us if we bring everyone in at once... the cost is much less.

"So, until we meet a certain number of new recruits, we won't activate the formation. It will probably take between one to three years before the next mass teleportation."

Sael coughed slightly and looked toward Leonel. It was only after seeing that Leonel didn't react much to this that she sighed a breath of relief.

'It seems that he cares more about this Aina's opinion than anything else. I should tell the higher ups to focus on pleasing her, then...'

"Oh!" Leonel's eyes suddenly brightened. "Can you help me get rid of this thing? There must be certain privileges in being one of your members, right?"
