Dimensional Descent

Leonel collapsed almost immediately. He couldn't be bothered to care about anything else; he barely had the strength to appease Aina for a bit and calm her before his heavy eyes fell closed.

He was in the Third Dimension now, the fact he could even stay awake for so long in the first place was nothing short of a miracle. He was completely relying on his strong Dream Force and his Vital Star Force. The two were able to bolster his baseline, but there was only so much they could do.

His Dream Force right now was in the Higher Impetus State, but it could barely exhibit the strength of the Lower Impetus State, and that was only because of his Dream Sovereignty. If not for this, it wouldn't even be that good.

His Vital Star Force was in a similar state, as were his other Forces. His current body was just too much of a bottleneck.

These were some of the last thoughts Leonel managed to have before his body ran to the end of its rope.
