Dimensional Descent

A flashing light swirled between the two Valiant Pillars.

By this point, the crowd of individuals watching was considerably smaller than it had been two years ago. And though this was in part due to the fact it had been so long, it was also obvious that there was an air of heaviness around Valiant Heart that hadn't quite been there before.

When the group of geniuses appeared, the only two who were still on their feet were Leonel and Aina. But, on the 'bright' side, only three of their twelve geniuses had died. One was Sael's partner, the other two were both geniuses from Severed Heart.

Somehow, Radlis had managed to survive until the end, but Leonel hadn't really gotten around to asking Aina what had happened to her in these last couple years. They had both decided that things would be less annoying if they handled whatever these Valiant Heart elders would throw at them first.

As expected, the elders seemed to swarm the group the moment they reappeared.

To Leonel's surprise, though, after getting the other medical attention, most of their attention was focused on Aina, something that made Leonel laugh inwardly.

There were any number of reasons they were acting like this. But, it was likely a combination of them being consumed by Aina's talent and not having actually seen him in action. The final cherry on top was that these elders truly didn't dare to question Leonel and by extension didn't even consider asking Aina for her things.

As far as they were concerned, as long as they could win over Aina, wouldn't they win over Leonel as well?

Still, humans were also creatures of recency bias. It had been too long since they had seen Leonel in action. And, even if they remembered what he had shown, it was still nowhere near as impressive as what Aina had done right before their eyes.

That said, from the very beginning, Leonel's sights had been far beyond this Bronze Organization. And now, this truth was only truer than it had ever been before.

Even beneath the onslaught of questions from the elders, seeing that this was going to take forever, Leonel ignored them all and pulled Aina away. He hadn't suffered through two years just to suffer some more under such conditions.

The two soon vanished over the horizon, leaving the elders at a loss.
