Leonel's eyes snapped open. His first instinct was to jump up, but the creaking of his bones and his splitting headache made him think twice.

"Hm?"

The sound of a breathing rhythm Leonel was certain was his caught his attention. He turned to the side, only to find Aina curled up like a kitten, her mask still on. Leonel couldn't blame her though, it was probably far more comfortable for her to sleep with it on rather than off.

Leonel's bed was quite large, enough for even four people to sleep on without bothering each other. So, though Aina was curled up to his side, she was still about half a meter from him.

Leonel couldn't help but smile. The little mink and Aina cuddled up together was definitely an adorable sight to behold.

Leonel's stirring seemed to alert Aina. Her eyes opened only to see Leonel's smirk.

A deep blush colored Aina's face. She couldn't help but be thankful that she had this mask now.

"Are you alright?" She asked.

"Good as n --" Leonel hardly finished his sentence before he grunted. His whole body felt like it was cramping, he never thought such a thing could be so painful.

Aina frowned. "You pushed yourself too far."

Leonel smiled bitterly. He didn't think he had in the moment. He was just doing whatever was necessary to win. But, he hadn't thought that the impact on his body would be so severe.

Ultimately, using the Four Seasons Realm to display combat prowess beyond his means was like pushing his body past its breaking point. The more he did so, the greater the backlash would be.

Though the Four Seasons Realm allowed a person to challenge those in Dimensions beyond them, there, of course, had to be a price to pay.

Luckily, Leonel's body and mind were already within the Fourth Dimension or else the backlash would have been even worse.

Four Seasons Realm was beyond anything Leonel could have expected it to be. It was only right
