Dimensional Descent

[I lied, here's number 3]

As Leonel caught up with Aina, he slowed, eventually coming to a halt by her side. He smiled a bit, seeing that her cloak of gold had indeed become violet.

Leonel knew that she was already close, so defeating those last four individuals should have put her way over the edge. If she took out her Golden Token now, it would most definitely be Amethyst.

Leonel looked down at his metal encased arm. He didn't know what else this journey would have in store for him, but this would definitely be a problem. He could only sigh toward his bad luck. He had never really consciously trained his left hand and his right always took the lead.

'No, I should be able to if I… Alright, I'll name this Dream Mirror.'

Leonel closed his eyes for a moment, a focused aura concentrating around him. It took a few minutes, and he even had to come to a stop, but when he opened his eyes again, the feeling of his left arm was completely different. It was almost as though he was looking through a mirror world.

The control Leonel had over his body had definitely increased. Just now, he rewired his proprioception and reworked how he received signals from his nerves. He didn't physically change anything about his body, he only put the signals he received through a filter he built in his Dream World.

Dream Mirror allowed him to now use his left hand as though it was his right. It felt as though nothing had changed at all.

'Good.' Leonel nodded to himself.

"Ready?" Aina asked. She didn't bother to ask Leonel what he had just done, she assumed that if it was important, he'd say. If wasn't so much, it was fine.

Seeing her trusting expression, Leonel sighed inwardly. He knew he would have to tell her what he had tried to do with her father soon. He didn't feel right keeping it to himself.

"Aina."

"Hm?"
