Dimensional Descent

1789 Too Late

The gates flew up like artillery shells, falling in the distance with a deafening boom. At thatmoment, all the Florer family members that had been scrambling behind the gatesfroze, looking toward Leonel at the same time. They knew well how good their defenses were. It should have taken an entire troop of powerful warriors to even damage it. How could just a single person not only burst through it.

But even do so with such force that the gates flew from their hinges like that? Fear took deep root within them even as Cherie, Seaward and Rosellia all charged out from the depths of their family estate, their eyes widening when they landed on Leonel. Although they hadn't personally been there to see this young man back then, how could they not learn of the truth from others by this point? Leonel had been able to kill Belize at the Fifth Dimension, but now... now he was already in the Sixth Dimension.

Just what kind of monster had he become?The three head elders smiled bitterly in their hearts. They never thought that they wouldn't even get the chance to make the hard choice. Just when they thought they had time, their worst fears became a reality almost instantly. Even if they laid down their lives to battle Leonel right this moment, would it even change anything? The strongest among them,Cherie,was only at Tier 6 of the Sixth Dimension, the other two were still at Tier 5.

Cherie sighed. "Is it necessary to take things this far, Imperial Prince? Our family offended yours once in the past, but we haven't crossed any lines since then. Doesn't Earth need more allies now?"

Leonel gazed toward Cherie. His eyes couldn't help but narrow. When he looked toward this woman, he couldn't muster up any emotions outside of goodwill, she looked too kind, too fragile, too warm. But that was exactly why Leonel immediately put his guardup, there was absolutely no reason why he, who had such good control over himself, should be unable to make logical deductions about a person's character. At the very least, he should be able to make assessments deeper than what hecould see at a skin deep level.
