Dimensional Descent

In the face of such overwhelming pressure, Leonel and Aina were unmoved. If before it had been difficult for Aina to climb this mountain pass, at this current instant, she felt like she was walking through field of fragrant breeze.

Hand in hand, the couple glided forward, a number of the other twelve following along with them.

Counting the number of individuals who took this pressure in stride, there was Aphestus, Raylion, Sael, and two others that Leonel did not recognize. But, from what it seemed like, one of them was from Bear Rose and the other was from Severed Heart.

Among those struggling, there was the remaining member of the former Valiant Hall, a member of Bear Rose and Severed Heart, along with Radlis.

Of all these, there was just one person Leonel didn't account for, and he was the fourth individual to gain a spot of entry alongside, Leonel, Aina and Radlis.

And that person was King of Ores, Sarrieth.

Sarrieth seemed to be at the very center of the pack. He didn't seem to be mightily struggling, but he also didn't seem to be having an easy time either.

Even to Leonel, this in between state seemed genuine. If Sarrieth was faking it, he'd have to be on a completely different level entirely.

However, after this thought, Leonel didn't pay any more attention to Sarrieth. In his opinion, he didn't have any life or death struggles with Sarrieth.

The King of Ores Faction targeted him so that Sarrieth would have an easier path toward blue belt promotion, and they had succeeded in that regard.

In retaliation, though, they had to face Leonel's wrath. They lost their prestige and their hold on the Ore market in one sweep. It could be said that Leonel felt that he had dealt them a devastating enough blow.
