Dimensional Descent

Leonel completely ignored the crumbling world around him. The moment he sensed the Zone had been cleared, he shed the body he had been using all the while and pulled his wife out from the Segmented Cube.

Aina didn't even have a chance to react before Leonel wrapped his arms around her tightly.

He breathed in her scent and only now did he finally feel at peace. He didn't even really care about his success, nor did he care to pay attention to the changes in his surroundings.

It had been ten years since he saw his wife. A day was too long, let alone so much time.

Aina bit back the words she was going to say and hugged Leonel back, burying her head in his chest. She could feel his emotions clearly.

This last year had been hard on her, but how could it match up to the ten years of Leonel?

Not being able to sense whether he was dead or alive was probably the hardest. She just kept staring at the tattoo of her finger, wondering if it would disappear in the next second.

Leonel took a deep breath and smiled.

"You didn't go and find another husband, did you?"

Aina pinched his waist, and Leonel winced.

He coughed. "You've grown stronger."

Aina smiled, cheek still buried in his chest.

"Of course."

Leonel grinned. Aina had returned to the Eighth Dimension.

Unlike Leonel, Aina had been in Anastasia's world, a perfect world equivalent to a God Realm. With so much time to meditate and focus on her progress, she had managed to find a new breakthrough path and had finally stepped out of the Fourth Dimension, returning to the Eighth.

Not only that, but she was several times more powerful than the last time, as expected, thanks to her rebirth method.

"Okay, stay right here," Leonel said.

"You're leaving again?" Aina frowned.

"Hell no. I just want eye candy while I change the world."
