Dimensional Descent

This time, Leonel wouldn’t be leaving even a single one of his brothers behind. He had already decided that even if he had to carry them up the steps one by one, putting them on his back, he would do so.

Leonel didn’t actually believe that his brothers were untalented. Among them, there were several geniuses. Arnold was a genius of Universal Force. He had mastered higher levels long before Leonel did, and the only difference between the two of them was that Arnold had gone off on a wrong path because of a lack of guidance, while Leonel had been lucky to unlock it during his battle with Lionel.

Back then, Arnold didn’t know that you could have a ubiquitous form of Universal Force because no one talked about it. As such, he always focused his Universal Force on his palms until Leonel taught him that another route could be taken. It was only after that that he managed to start following the right path.

Then there was Allan. He had always been ranked number one in their class despite the fact both Aina and Leonel were in that class. Of course, Leonel and Aina had always been focused on other things… Leonel couldn’t bring study material back to the Paradise Islands, while Aina had been obsessively training since she was young. But this didn’t diminish Leonel’s views of Allan in the slightest.

That was because if they were focused on other things, couldn’t Allan also be? Allan had always been obsessed with working out and being meticulously dressed. Those sorts of things took up a lot of his day, and under normal circumstances, they would take precedence over anything else.

Even if he had spent more time on schoolwork than Leonel and Aina did, his intelligence wasn’t very far from their own at all.

Drake was literally creating his own Weapon Force, pioneering a path that was unprecedented and had simply never appeared before.

Raj’s Ability Index allowed him to create anywhere from the weakest Earth Forces to the absolute strongest.

James had literally created his own Lineage Factor.

No matter where you looked among his brothers, you could find monsters. The trouble was that in the end, when they had to be compared to Leonel and Aina, not only were they lacking in luck, but they were still lacking in talent as well.

Aina had Clairvoyance to lead them every step of the way, and Leonel’s body was stocked with so many talents that literally one of his main problems over the course of his journey was having too many paths to follow.

Leonel didn’t believe that he was lifting up the useless, and even if they were truly useless, he wouldn’t care.

In this world, he had already decided what type of person he wanted to be. That Leonel, who had lofty aspirations of becoming a King, hadn’t vanished. He had just been suppressed by a far darker side of himself, a half that preferred to watch the world burn.

But now, he had made peace with himself. He understood that he wasn’t a monster deep inside… he understood that not everything needed to be decided by who had the strongest logic… sometimes, you could do things simply because you wanted to do them, simply because they made you happy.

It had taken Leonel too long to realize this.

Why was it that his future self was so resigned? Why was it, despite the fact he had the greatest logic and a strength so strong that even the Northern Star could do nothing about him, that he was so… sad?

It was because he had lost everything. He had no parents, no wife, no brothers… no family. So what was the point in the end?

Even if he had the strength to exist into perpetuity, why not just die out along with everything else?

Maybe this was what his future self really wanted him to see, but he had been too blinded by his own pride to even care to notice. He had just been obsessed with surpassing his future self, to be able to accomplish what he had failed to simply by wielding a greater strength.

But in the end, he would just be led down the very same path. Then, he would find himself staring down the barrel of the Northern Star just like he had every other time.

Would this time be different?

He didn’t know.

But what he did know was that if he was going to die, it would be on a battlefield with his brothers. If he was going to despair, he was going to do it with them by his side. If he was ever going to give up… it was going to be when all of them breathed their last together.

That was his conviction, and from now on, it would burn the path he took forward.

Just like that, Leonel began to go from Incomplete World to Incomplete World. All of them had been marked by him in the last several months, and each one was absolutely perfect for the brother he chose.

Every time they fused with one, they entered the Ninth Dimension in a single bound, but it wasn’t just that either. Their constitutions… They evolved to a new level as well.

It was hard to tell with a glance whether they were Mortal, Demi-God, or God… only Leonel knew that they were very much still Mortal. In fact, it could even be said that their Constitution had regressed.

But when the time came, and Leonel began to pour resources into their worlds and they tended toward Completion as well, their strength would reach an entirely new Realm at once.

When that happened, he and his brothers would be able to walk through the world completely unhindered. The Royal Blue team would be back.

In the past, every time they stepped foot onto the field together, the other team would shudder. Now, it would be the same.

It was just that the field had changed a bit…

This time, it would be a bloody battlefield.
