Dimensional Descent

Orinik took a deep breath. Just this subtle action seemed to agitate the atmosphere itself, a sweeping wind flying about the arena.

"I will not explain to you all the weight the Title of Void Palace Disciple holds, because quite frankly, the majority of you all are not worthy of knowing. Instead, I will only tell you all that if you miss this opportunity, it will be one you regret for a lifetime.

"Today will be the first of three days of trials. Usually, we have something of a more elaborate planned, but this time around, we will use the simplest and most crude of methods."

What Orinik didn't explain was that this was due to the actions of Leonel's mother.

In order to allow the youth of Earth more spots to be selected, it could be said that she abused her power to expand the Selection. This wasn't' exactly rare, as many overseers would do similar things when they were sent back to their home Sectors. Due to this, the Void Palace usually had a policy of sending over those who could be unbiased.

Because of these factors, Alienor wasn't meant to return. But, due to the interference of Leonel's father and a series of events not many were aware of, the Void Palace ended up making yet another exception.

In truth, the Void Palace wasn't too worried about this at all because…

"There will be no absolute fairness. If you cannot make it through these rounds and rise to the top in just this Sector, you would have never stood a chance upon reaching the Void Palace. Don't think me out to be cruel. If anything, we are saving your lives. The Selection that takes place here could never match up to even a tenth of the difficulty in the Void Palace's True Selection.
