Dimensional Descent

Leonel handed Aina a letter. "Here, go give this to those three bastards."

Looking at Leonel, who was gritting his teeth as though someone had just beaten his mother half to death, Aina didn't even know how to react. She wanted to ask Leonel what was wrong, but when she saw that deadly sort of look in his eyes, she stopped.

"Okay," she said after a while.

Taking the letter, she turned and left.

Leonel went back to work, one part of his mind focused on Aina and the other focused on his tasks. He looked completely focused and dutiful again as though he was never enraged to begin with.

...

Mo''Lexi suddenly sensed a flash of rage that rippled outward, but it disappeared just as quickly. When she checked, she found Leonel working alone as usual, but to her surprise, there was also that little girl. Oddly enough, she wasn't with Leonel. Instead, as he completed both of their workloads, she had gone off to do gods know what.

Mo''Lexi sighed and shook her head. She had seen this sort of scene play out a million times before, so she shut her mind off to it. It didn't matter.

...

Aina didn't know what Leonel put in the letter, but judging by his rage, she had some guesses. Even so, she didn't ask. She would just have to teach that man a lesson when she next got a chance. How dare he do this to her?

The three young men Leonel was referring to were without a doubt Bogrum, Bryan, and Elek. These three, aside from Alastar, seemed to be the only others in the hangar. And unlike Leonel, they didn't spend their time lifting heavy loads, but were rather responsible for double-checking that he had stacked everything correctly. As a result, their lives were quite leisurely.

They didn't expect that Aina would come up to Bogrum all of a sudden, hand him a letter, and then vanish into the wind like she was never there.

Bogrum was dazed by Aina's beauty and couldn't even react properly to her approach, not to mention the fact her speed was... ridiculous. If not for the fact his hormones were raging, he would have questioned how someone from the lower worlds could even possibly be so quick in the first place.

But he was completely enraptured. He would have only looked like more of a bumbling fool if drool began to leak from his lips.

He had known that Aina was a beauty just by half her face. After all, the other half had been pressed against Leonel's back, so he hadn't seen clearly. To make matters worse, her figure had been obscured by Leonel as well.
