Hollow

Leonel's eyes opened with a flash, his presence causing the surrounding region to tremble mightily. However, the frown on his face hadn't vanished. 

He could feel the weight of a Life State level of comprehension, and it was heavy. Heavier than he expected. 

It wasn't that he felt like he was burning from the inside out. In fact, his Innate Nodes felt more in control than they ever had, and he even felt like he could finally begin using some of their true power. 

It was more so that it was like a veil on the world had been lifted and he could feel some of that helplessness that his future self should have felt. He could finally see the top of the mountain, or at the very least, one of them. And yet, it felt so… 

Hollow. 

It should have been an amazing accomplishment. He had done something that only a select few had ever done, and he was probably the first human since King, at least in these Bubble Worlds, to have succeeded in such a thing.
