Dimensional Descent

The expressions of the Ancestors continuously changed, and soon they became unprecedentedly determined. The silent Beast Domain Ancestor growled, its scales lifting up as though they were peeling before settling back down. It looked as though it was breathing through its skin. They seemed to have made a decision right then and there.

At that moment, Leonel wasn't idle. Much like the Cloud Ancestor had said, before he did anything else, he went through every human, painstakingly, one by one. Every time he found a Cloud Race member, he slaughtered them without mercy.

There was a limit to how many people he could control with his seals, and the Cloud Race was too skilled in these matters. He had to take his own cautions.

After he had resurrected Maia after her death, she was far more obedient than she had been in the past, but this didn't make Leonel relax. If anything, it made him more attentive. It made sense for someone to change after experiencing death, but it was when things seemed the most calm that the greatest caution needed to be taken.

Maia had never been so close to the Cloud Race's core since she began her mission. In addition, her uses to Leonel currently were limited. She was a great power in the Heir Wars, but she was ultimately of little consequence here.

The first day passed in a blaze and it was only at its tail end that Leonel finally finished expunging the frontlines of the Cloud Race. The harsh reality of this, though, was that once the other families came, it would infuse the army with another huge load of them, it was an infestation that would never give out.

However, half way through the second day, Leonel's expression was quite dark.
