Dimensional Descent

Chapter 2995  Sinister

The good news was that he could already sense the laws of the Gods encroaching. He could sense the Forces clearer, he could feel himself improving with much greater speed, he could even feel that the suppression on Drake had already loosened considerably and would only continue to do so as time continued to pass.

In addition to this, the plan of the Owlans and the others could be cut short. That was because they no longer had to power up for the sake of cracking the barrier, because the barrier was already cracked. As such, their preparations until now were more than good enough to get a handle on the situation and move their worlds up. It could be said that the ones to benefit the greatest from this was them and their alliance… at least on the surface.

As for the issues… there were too many to count.

If there was no longer a barrier between the worlds, then Leonel\'s plan to use the Owlans and the others as his backdrop had to be thrown into the trash.

Initially, Leonel wanted to distract the God Realm with the rise of the Owlans and the Fallen God Beasts. That was because their existences wouldn\'t be casually accepted on the God Realm.

The Gods were obsessed with holding onto power, and they were especially stingy with how they chose to do things. Just the fact that the edict had appeared before Drake said everything that needed to be said.

Normally, someone who formed a Dharma would have a few months, at the very least, to set their affairs in order and prepare to ascend. But because Drake had formed an Idol from the very onset, the God Realm lacked patience at all to let him do anything. As such, they basically ordered him to come within the next few days. Though, of course, Leonel had ignored this.

If they were so up in arms about Drake, it could be imagined how they would react if another whole family and race of people ascended.

But now, if the connection was formed like this, then there would be no escaping the wrath. Even if they worked as a distraction for a small time, it was impossible for it to last very long. With the convenience of crossing over now, they could even divide their attention to deal with him as well…

This was especially so considering the Void Race was far from the only Race that Leonel had offended. On his wrists right this moment, there was not just one Sylvan heart, but two of them.

However, this was still just one issue. Leonel had already thought of methods he might be able to use to combat this. He still had the Barbarians at his disposal, and with the passage opening now, using the Demi-God Races to throw the God Realm into turmoil wasn\'t actually all that difficult.

The Demi-God Races would know that this was their best shot at rising to the God Realms, and it would just be a case of the God Realm reaping what they sowed.

After all, the God Realm had been suppressing the lower Realms for so long, even culling their generations. Even if the Demi-Gods had yet to suffer from these cullings, it was only a matter of time before their backs were pressed against the wall as well.

The God Realm thought themselves to be all-powerful, so they didn\'t consider such things too greatly. However, they had already greatly dissatisfied many powers in the lower Realms…

There was a reason there were so many underground plots brewing at the same time. Existence had been a powder keg ready to explode for a long time now.

No one was willing to die, but by the same token, no one was willing to become the sacrifice for others to live.

If the Gods thought that this status quo would exist for long, they were too naive…

At that moment, a flash sparked through Leonel\'s mind and his heart shook.

Could that have been the purpose all along? Was he the only intelligent person in existence? How could that possibly be true? Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn

If he could see it, there were certainly others that could see it as well, and if there were others that could see it, but they weren\'t pushing back very hard…

\'The majority faction in the God Realm, according to El\'Rion, is the neutral faction that just wants to wait things out. And yet, even with the neutral faction being the majority, the culling was still approved.

\'In the past, I thought that this was because they had to force a compromise. After all, killing off a few worlds every few hundred years was far better than just massacring the entire lower planes in a single sweep.

\'But… what if the neutral faction isn\'t so neutral after all? What if they just wanted a better reason to cull? Or maybe… they have other plans that I\'ve yet to see through.\'

The more Leonel thought about it, the more he realized that this was likely to be the case. This was what the God Realm wanted, a surge to the God Realm so that they could justifiably kill large swaths of people and extend the life of Existence by weakening the burden on the Northern Star. By the same token, if their enemies came to them instead of the other way around, then they would not only not have to face the suppression of the lower Realms, but they wouldn\'t have to invest very much at all…

And in this sort of situation, they seemed to be getting exactly what they wanted.

\'Truly sinister…\' Leonel thought.

Unfortunately, this was still very much only the first and second problems.
