My Little Lion

Alienor appeared by Aina's side and fell to her knees. By this point, even Anastasia had appeared, and she was already a sobbing mess. She was trying her best to wipe her tears away with her little arms, but she couldn't seem to move them fast enough.

There was a peaceful smile on Leonel's face as though he had already done everything that he could do and he was content with the outcome. There wasn't even the slightest unwillingness remaining in him.

"I'm sorry, Aina," Alienor said softly, knocking the young girl out with a palm strike. She then suppressed Anastasia into the Segmented Cube and sent Aina in with her along with Leonel's brothers.

Tears fell from Alienor's eyes as she picked up her son, holding him close to her chest. Worrying that her armor would harm him, she put it away, not caring about the blood that soaked her through. She cradled Leonel's head, her sobs choking her breath.
