Dimensional Descent

Leonel exhaled a breath before stretching his neck.

Of course, he had no idea who Cynthia Omann was, but he most definitely recognized Yuri's name. It seemed that girl was doing just fine. That was good since Aina would be sad if she had died in the Zone.

Leonel wondered if Yuri was still here or if she had returned to Earth. Of course, he also had no idea that the Brazinger name also held much more weight now than it had before as well. If he had known, he would also know that returning probably wouldn't be very safe for Yuri.

Leonel yawned.

He had a bit of that good feeling of euphoria one had after a workout, but he also wanted to collapse into a heap after devouring a ton of food as well. It was about time he found Aina, whose cooking would be better to enjoy now than his girlfriend's?

Leonel stretched and took a step toward the stairs to return. He expected someone to stop him because that was just the kind of luck he had. But surprisingly, no one did. Everything felt quite eerily silent and no one said a word as Leonel vanished down the steps. That said… that didn't stop their brows from being touched with a hint of solemnity.

Leonel made it down to the bottom of the stairs quite quickly. His eyes were somewhat droopy and he yawned from time to time, but ultimately, his state was still far better now than it had been in the past where he could barely move.

A while later, he returned to the Spear Faction and nothing much seemed to have changed. He had half expected for a war to have broken out by now, but once again, his expectations were dashed. It was, once again, oddly peaceful.

Leonel was very used to this. In reality, it was just about an hour of peace but it felt off as though he didn't deserve this much.
