Dimensional Descent

Aina didn't say anything toward Leonel's words. But, seeing the state Little Blackstar was in, her expression, too, turned cold. She had been too wrapped up in her initial guilt to feel the same rage Leonel did. But, after that faded, it wasn't a surprise that she didn't feel too differently.

However, for the three listening to this conversation, they felt like they were listening to an insane pair of people.

You wanted to meet a Shadow Sovereign? Excuse me?

Just judging by the state Little Blackstar was in, this Shadow Sovereign was most likely at least within the Sixth Dimension, if not higher. The fact they had deployed their Shadow Domain here also likely meant that they were a Rapax!

It had to be understood that Rapax with non-physical type Ability Indexes were extraordinarily rare. Often, they were taken to be cripples by their race. However, there were a small percentage of this already rare contingent that were seen as even more valuable than those with the most powerful physical type Ability Indexes.

In this case, a Shadow Sovereign would most definitely be among this number. This meant that this Rapax wasn't just a Runed Rapax, it was definitely an elite amongst Runed Rapax and would be treated as such.

But, this was just the tip of the iceberg. That was because there was a hidden struggle between Shadow Sovereigns that only involved them. Each Shadow Sovereign was a unique sort of existence, but it was also very difficult for them to improve as a result.

However, swallowing another Shadow Sovereign's Domain was an easy shortcut to this sort of improvement. It wasn't a matter of if this Shadow Sovereign was coming, it was a matter of when. With Little Blackstar in such a vulnerable position, he was practically easy food.

The fact that Little Blackstar was a beast only made it all the more enticing because his Beast Crystal could be taken and swallowed as well, allowing the Rapax to benefit twice over.

They should be running for their lives, not standing menacingly out in the open as though they couldn't wait for confrontation. That was suicide!
