Dimensional Descent

"I can't take it anymore, Sael! This brat needs to be taught a lesson!"

Not a small number of those who had followed Sael to this place took a step forward. First, their junior had been beaten half dead to the point his eyes rolled to the back of his head. Second, even after they appeared, Leonel dared to strike a near fatal blow on a senior of his. And third, he was now blatantly threatening their captain.

"Wait…!" Sael tried to step forward to stop things again, making another effort.

"That's enough, Captain! I know you have your reasons for acting like this, but I don't give a damn what special background this brat has! We'll take the heat for you!"

Growling several members of Sael's squad stepped forward, glaring at Leonel as though they were a pack of wounded animals. They wanted nothing more than to tear him limb from limb.

Leonel had been absentminded, still trying to put the pieces together when he heard those words.

'Background…? What do…' Leonel's eyes flashed with a bright arc of lightning. It almost seemed to manifest itself into a spiraling whip, beating against his mind for taking so long to come to the proper conclusion.

'Is this about Earth…? No, if Terrain could just attack us because they felt like it without any sort of intervention, that should be impossible. If anything, since Sael had alluded to troubles Valiant Heart had been having, they would be salivating at the prospect of Earth entering the Fifth Dimension so they could send an attack force of their own.

'If this was about Earth, they would just kill me off. There would be no need to allow a talent from there to live.

'That means this either has something to do with my maternal grandmother's Snowy Owl Lineage Factor and the family it came from… Or… dad's Metal Synergy Lineage Factor…'

Leonel didn't know which one it was. Technically, both could have been exposed during his talent assessment. Now that he thought about it, Sael didn't read his results aloud back then either.
