Dimensional Descent

Somnus had never been so humiliated in his life. He thought that the moment he started to bring out his full strength, it would all be over-that was why he had never panicked despite his shock.

But the truth was beyond his expectations.

Leonel suddenly took a step back and became a support while his wife took the vanguard. One wielded a ruby battle ax and the latter formed a bow from thin air.

The worst part was that the Domain was still effective.

One after another, Leonel unleashed a barrage of arrows that Aina herself didn't seem to have to slow or care for in the slightest. She fought all out, and from what he could tell, she didn't slow her speed or change her cadence in the slightest. There were even several moments where she would erupt with jerky, unpredictable motions and sudden changes in battle philosophy or approach, and yet it never seemed to faze Leonel at all.

He hung in there, hoping that Leonel would eventually slip up and end up injuring his own wife...

But that moment never came.

In fact, the two only seemed to grow stronger, especially when Leonel did something inexplicable and began fusing his [Finality] strikes into one.

The vast majority of Leonel's [Finality] Force Arts were formed of Scarlet Star Force... but who said those were the only ones he had formed?

A twin pair of Force Arts began to take shape before his bow every time he pulled back a new arrow, spinning in opposite directions like ancient magic circles.

At that moment, the immovable earth of the Inbetween World became akin to clay beneath his will, forming chilly black arrows that were quickly wrapped in flames.

Beneath the simultaneous barrage of Aina and Leonel, Somnus simply couldn't hold up. Even after growing to almost five meters tall, Aina's Dharma manifestation made an appearance, causing his eyes to open wide with shock.

At that point, he tried to run, turning tail and disregarding any dignity as a Demi-God that he might have thought he had.

Unfortunately, it was worthless.
