Dimensional Descent

Leonel expressionlessly met Amery's gaze before his own shifted toward the latter's hand.

Amery obviously hadn't had a chance to properly heal himself. His right hand was now useless to him and wrapped up in several bandages. The two of them were ironically the same in this facet.

Amery didn't seem to react very much to the appearance of Leonel and Aina. It was clear that he had been expecting as much. The light in his eyes didn't seem to have faded at all despite his loss, being just as starry as they always were. Maybe the only difference between now and then was the fact he actually looked at Leonel this time.

Both men looked away at the same time, observing their surroundings.

Aina, who had been observing this scene, shook her head.

'Men…'

If you want to kill each other, just do it. There obviously wasn't a chance to do so now, so in that case, what was the point of the dick measuring contest continuing?

Her lips curled into a smile despite her thoughts. Seeing Leonel act like this was adorable to her. Sometimes he seemed less than human, but it was things like this that grounded him a bit.

She didn't know which was the real Leonel, and it somewhat worried her that he was only able to be this 'human' at all because of the restraints his father had placed on him. However, what she did know was that no matter what the answer was, she wouldn't be changing her mind about whether or not to stay by his side or not. That much was already decided.

Despite spending some time observing the world, Leonel couldn't' pick out anything. There was nothing but an endless blackness in every direction.

The only good news was that at least Ossenna wasn't just messing with him again. Since Amery was here as well, it meant that he didn't get a chance to rest either. Though, there was a gap of few hours, that much could only be blamed on Leonel himself.
