Dimensional Descent

This dilemma had stalled Leonel for a long while. No matter what, he didn't even think of taking the easy way out.

With 20 years left, even if he didn't force a Sea Goddess to lie in his bed, it still wouldn't be difficult, not to mention leave with enough time to still try several times to birth the child that he needed.

There were certainly plenty of men who would have done it. No one ever accused Sea God women of not being exceptionally beautiful, but Leonel simply had no interest in taking such a step.

In his opinion, part of protecting his wife meant protecting her heart. That was just as important as anything else. It was the very same reason he was so enraged every time someone slighted her, even in the smallest way.

Even if he was willing to force his wife to take on such a burden, what would happen to his child? Could he just leave them in the Zone, using them like a one-way ticket to strengthen himself? What kind of man would he be then? Wouldn't this child likewise be part of his family?

There were multiple things wrong with this path.

Knowing that this path would bear no fruit, Leonel thought of many other things.

Maybe attempting to pass on his Bloodline, maybe studying his body to try to replicate the Lineage Factor, he even thought of using the replication abilities of the Cloud Race to attempt to reverse engineer the Northern Star Lineage Factor.

But each of these paths took more time and expertise than he had.

Maybe if he had Aina by his side, he could rely on her to make the attempt. But he didn't.

It was difficult enough to create a systematic method of helping the humans separate their souls from their bodies-at least one that didn't require being eaten alive like he had.

Doing this felt like a bridge much too far.

That was when Leonel realized something.
