Dimensional Descent

The two Seventh Dimensional overseers stood with their hands clasped behind their backs as Leonel left, but hidden flicker danced within their eyes as they did so. It was clear that they weren't happy with this result either, but there was little to nothing that they could do about it. Attacking with their strength was another taboo of the Void Palace, they simply couldn't do it.

The both of them were also members of the Bow Constellation Alliance. One of them went by Abelion and the other went by Sankas. Although neither of them was a member of the Tarius family, they still held quite a bit of strength in their own right.

Years ago, they could only watch the White Lion Bow be taken away by that woman. And now, her son had come by, seemingly to rub it in their faces. Suspending him for 10 years was about all that they could do, but Leonel didn't seem to care about it at all.

"Should we have really let him go like that?" Abelion asked.

"And what were our other choices, exactly?"

"This is already the second time you've given me that answer and it's just as frustrating as the first time."

"It is what it is. When someone climbs to the 12th floor, they're allowed to try their chances at claiming the White Lion Bow. Before, his mother had done it for him, and we could have used that as a pretext to take it away from him… if not for the fact that he seemed to be capable of using the bow just fine.

"Some thought that it was because his father used some nefarious means, but we have no way of proving that, or at the very least, there's no obvious method of doing so. And now that he's legitimately climbed to the 12th floor on his own, there's even less that we can do about it."

The two fell into silence, their teeth silently clenched as their expressions remained unmoved.

"The White Lion Bow is the last beacon we have of the Alliance's former glory. Allowing it to fall into the hands of an outsider like this is a disgrace."

These were the last words the two said on the topic, there was simply nothing else to be said.
