Dimensional Descent

Alejandro stayed silent for a long while. It would be one thing if Leonel asked this question based on something Velasco had said, but he knew that man too well. And considering Leonel had just tried to give over something he shouldn't have, it was safe to say that his level of understanding toward the family was nearly zero.

This meant that Leonel had deduced this on his own from the outside.

Alejandro wasn't sure if this was impressive or maybe even a bit said.

"The reality is that the ability to assimilate the elements with your body is a... demonic ability. For humans, the root of our affinities should be our Ethereal Glabellas.

"This is far more comparable to demons whose affinities are rooted in their bodies."

Leonel's gaze flashed. That was true, now that he thought about it. When Aina refined the Force Pills to refine their foundations, the most important aspect was the flesh and blood of the demons, they had already been the foundation of the strength of demons.

Leonel had never really seen things from that perspective, but indeed, the Metal Synergy Lineage Factor truly did align much more with demons than it did humans.

His mind couldn't help but drift to the Demoness once again and the connection between the Silver Empire's Inheritance and that of the Morales family's. Was it a coincidence? Or could it be that demoness wasn't just referring to the personality of this mysterious woman, but also her race?
