Dimensional Descent

Leonel didn't force himself to make a decision, still focused on assimilating more. However, part of his mind still wanted to feel like he was headed in the right direction, so he allotted some of his thoughts to organize this information slowly.

Ultimately, the main difference between the two paths was that one was focused on physical manifestations of change while the other was more focused on ethereal manifestations.

'Wait…'

Leonel had quite a real world example of this, did he not? His grandfather's step by step progression from calligraphy to painting, which category did it fall into? Was a physical? Or ethereal?

There was no fundamental change to the way Leonel utilized his Spear Force. It was fundamentally a change that occurred on the ethereal level, changing the Artistic Conception that breathed power into his spear.

That was that, case closed… Right?

But when looked at from a different angle, it was also a physical change. After all, Leonel was consciously manipulating his Spear Force with the use of his Dream Class technique to form a different demeanor by which he could project a powerful Artistic Conception.

Due to this, he had found it difficult even to properly use his Spear Domain Lineage Factor as it required a more ethereal comprehension. On its face, this was clearly a contradiction. But maybe that was because his way of framing it was wrong from the very beginning.

Although the manifestation was ethereal, didn't it have a physical presence? Weren't the changes that happened "ethereally" used to catalyze real world changes?
