Dimensional Descent

Leonel smiled. "Luck?"

Though Leonel had said this lightly, the elders didn't seem to find it very funny. Even Elder Tobis, one of the few Leonel had seen that weren't so uptight, wasn't very moved.

For these elders, it must have felt like watching their legacies crumble before them all in real time. How could they be in the mood for jokes?

As much as these elders wanted to believe that so many freshmen could survive, they had already prepared themselves to be wiped out completely. But now, instead of being pleasantly surprised, they were just skeptical. And, after interrogating all of the freshmen about what happened, it all seemed to revolve around this one young man.

"Your explanation sounds perfect, but I still have some questions."

"Mm?" Leonel met this elder's gaze.

"What happened with your seniors?"
