Dimensional Descent

The Quasi Life State was worth so much more to Leonel. Because of his Sovereignty, it was as good as a true Life State. It was akin to two halves coming together to make a whole.

According to what El'Rion had said back then, Sovereignty was the representation of the Life State. It allowed much lower-level Forces to display some of the strength of the Life State ahead of time.

It could also be said that a Force that was both in the Life State and maintained a Sovereign air was on an entirely different level than both. The truest strength of Sovereignty wouldn't be seen until one entered the Life State and maintained it.

Thanks to this, Leonel skipped over Tier Four entirely and gained Tier Five strength, catching up with the foundation of the Owlans. It had not even been a quarter of the day, but he didn't feel complacent at all.

Remembering how much progress the Nomad Race had been able to make so quickly, he understood that he couldn't afford to get complacent.

He looked down at the net of runes before him.

'Hm... This could be useful even if I don't fuse it with myself.'

Leonel picked it up and shot into the distance. His Tier Five status plus his 100% booster was showing its strength right now and he shot right back up the mountain to where a certain Tier Six beast was still rampaging.

The moment it spotted Leonel, it lunged at him, but just as quickly, it was suppressed by the Life Tablet.

Leonel didn't want to control the creature for information. Ironically, precisely because it was the strongest creature of this mountain, it knew the least about the surrounding areas. That was because it never left the Forgetful Orb.
