Dimensional Descent

"It won't be anytime soon, Coach. It's just that your Province is without a doubt the best launching point. The only trouble is I don't really understand my grandfather's ability. If he has the World Spirit, taking Earth from him will be difficult."

At first Leonel thought that his grandfather was able to display such strength because of the World Spirit. But now, he wasn't so sure. In fact, he was almost certain that during the attack that wiped out the entire fleet of Shield Cross Stars members, not a single ounce of World Force had been used.

Leonel could be certain of this now because he had experienced real World Force during his battle against Alexandre the Apex. After comparing and contrasting that strength, Leonel had come to understand that the energy he had felt that day wasn't like World Force at all and was much more like the energy of his King's Might Lineage Factor with some obvious differences.

Still, it was similar enough that Leonel was able to recognize it.

Such a reality was indeed a scary prospect. How powerful, then, was his grandfather really? And how had he managed to grow to such a point?

Leonel realized that his grandfather wasn't simple long ago. After all, he had known for a very long time that his grandfather, despite not knowing who he was, had had his mother with a woman from the Luxnix family. This family had a Sixth Dimension Lineage Factor and was, as such, most definitely at least in that Realm.

But, now that he knew who his grandfather was, it only raised more questions. How had his grandfather managed to interact with such a person as a human of the Third Dimension? Was this related to why his own father was on Earth? And what about his mother? Was her disappearance related to matters of this story?

"Hm? Your grandfather doesn't have the World Spirit. Your mother does."

Leonel, who had practically been mumbling to himself, suddenly snapped his head upward.

"What?"

At first Leonel was shocked by the news, then the fact Coach Owen knew this at all.

Then, Leonel remembered how much Coach Owen knew about himself, even down to the true origins of his father. If Leonel recalled correctly, Coach Owen had even commented on his father's vomit brew more than once before, clearly pointing toward something quite important about it in hindsight.

these things was just as if not more impressive than knowing his mother had the World Spirit. Clearly, Coach Owen's standing on Earth was not small. Or, it could be that his
