Dimensional Descent

"This doesn't have to be the end if you don't want it to be." Leonel suddenly said. "You also don't have to rebuild everything from scratch."

Augustus' gaze narrowed. "What do you mean by this?"

"Well, that would depend on how much your daughter hates me and how much you value that hatred." Leonel responded with another hypothetical.

Augustus' frown deepened, but he didn't immediately look toward his daughter. He knew well that his daughter's feelings for her late fiancée weren't fake. And, he knew his daughter's temperament well. Bending wasn't something she took too kindly to. Even if she bent now, there was a good chance she would snap back in the future.

However, before he could think anymore, Heira suddenly spoke.

"Rie and Syl. Where are they?"

Leonel didn't need to think long to remember who these two were. Syl was Anared's younger sister and would have been Heira's sister-in-law. As for Rie, she was apparently Syl's best friend, but there was a bit of a scandal behind this.

According to what Leonel had learned, Rie was actually the child between City Lord White—who Aina had killed in her berserk state—and City Lord Kaefir, Syl and Anared's father. She was thus treated very well by the family as she was technically a part of them. But, Rie herself along with Syl seemed to have no idea about this.

Regardless, this was a story that Leonel had thrown to the back of his mind because, truthfully, he simply didn't care. It didn't seem relevant.

"They are currently both on Earth." Leonel replied lightly.

"And my father-in-law?"
