Ruler's Awakening: Inheritor of the SSS-Rank Dimensional Talent-Chapter 193: Meet Their Leader
Aaron was silent for a moment, his eyes fixed on looking to the side to discover the meaning behind Aerith’s approval. Yet, Aaron had no ability to read facial expressions, let alone read minds. The man had no idea what Aerith was planning.
Since it had already been decided, Aaron was forced to go along with what the woman said. Emily leaped for joy, even though she was moving from teenager to adult, but her attitude was very similar to that of a 12-year-old girl —her attitude had not yet returned, and she was not fully used to it.
"Thank you. With that, come with us," Aldo pleaded.
Aaron shook his head. Coming with them would only cause suspicion in the eyes of the city people, let alone the Night Liberators.
Aaron’s magic fluctuations were pretty unique; the slightest bit he released his magic, they could discover his location.
In the end, it would end up in a huge battle that was devastating and terrifying. Aaron didn’t want that to happen, not at the moment.
"What do you mean?" asked Aldo.
Aaron turned to the side, Aerith cleared her throat in agreement, knowing what Aaron was planning. With a brief hand gesture to the side, the maroon-eyed woman brought up a dimensional rift.
The rift’s location close to the raid team had startled them. They and the others jumped away to avoid the area near the rift, making Aerith chuckle in response to their awkward behavior.
"I’ve already been there. I know what that place looks like."
"Then?" asked Aldo, confused.
"I’ll go there with Aerith. You guys can follow us," Aaron explained.
Emily was confused, so Aldo had the same expression. But seeing Aaron and Aerith’s whereabouts disappear without a trace made them understand the situation. Aaron and Aerith used the power of the dimension to move.
The rift closed and disappeared after being shrunk down to the smallest particles. Emily held her chin while both eyes squinted, curious about their dimensional abilities.
"If it is indeed a dimensional ability, can he travel to other places?" asked Emily, her face serious.
"I doubt that, Ms. Emily," Aldo replied.
"Why? Do you have your own conclusions, Aldo?"
Aldo explained that when Aaron said he had been to Sky Sword’s HQ, he mentioned that there was a possibility that the dimensional abilities could only reach places the user remembered.
"So that’s it, huh? I didn’t expect that."
"However, I don’t know if the ability is limited by floor or not. That is, can he use the dimensional ability to travel across floors by deceiving the system? I don’t know the exact answer," Aldo replied, turning around and staring at the majestic Lilith City.
Emily summoned her Griffin beast servant, then sat precisely on the beast’s back, "We’d better go back to find out the answer."
Aldo nodded. He and the other members left the place. Some went on flying weapons, some on beast servants, and some on foot like common adventurers.
Elsewhere, in the throne hall of the 25th Sky Sword Branch HQ, Eloise was sitting in her Sky Sword uniform dress.
She sat with her legs crossed, her hands continuously sliding over the mission panels appearing before her, the general missions of the guild.
"Three of these five general missions can be taken by Sky Sword," she muttered, separating three of the five general mission panels before her.
She sent the mission panels to a group messenger who came with the missions. Eloise said that the person who would decide which team went out would be her; the messenger nodded in understanding.
The man walked away from the beautiful hall with the three mission panels Eloise had chosen. One guest was done, and another one from the White Sword group wished to negotiate with Eloise.
The door opened, the leader of the White Sword group walked in accompanied by two persons beside him.
It was their first time coming to the Sky Sword throne hall, they marveled at the architectural beauty of the place.
The three reached the front of the stairs connected to Eloise’s throne chair. The location of the throne seat was quite high compared to the average floor surface in the room.
CRACK!
Just as the White Sword leader was about to speak, the three were startled by the appearance of a dimensional rift before them.

Feeling the power of the rift so strong, they stepped back to avoid the place.
Eloise rose from her seat, her eyes squinting sharply at the oddity that had occurred. The Sky Sword members guarding the place were on full alert, drawing their magic spears to surround the dimensional rift location.
"Hold it!" commanded Eloise.
"Tch! You invited my lover to come, but is this such a welcome from you?"
Aerith stepped out while changing her clothes, wearing a long black dress again with the dress tails sweeping the floor. The slit at the front of the dress skirt showed Aerith’s white and slim legs, adorned with her high heels that gave off a glamorous and luxurious look.
The woman stood with her arms crossed, her eyes shining bright maroon, looking back at Eloise, who was staring at her with a blue light in her eyes, the power of ice.
’She is not an ordinary woman. Her power feels familiar to me,’ said Eloise.
Although Aerith was stronger, Eloise shouldn’t show her fear. The slightest flinch would show to the members that Eloise was no better than the mysterious woman.
"I don’t understand what you’re talking about. Who are you?" asked Eloise sternly.
The power of darkness and the power of ice clashed in the hall, even though neither of the two women had done anything —not even moved a finger.
Everyone could feel how strong they were. The guard members of the room even slammed into the hall wall with force from the boom of the two magical forces.
From the main street, they could see a bright mix of lights in one of the rooms in the Sky Sword 25th branch HQ.
Aldo and Emily saw the two lights —purple and blue. They hurriedly quickened their flying speed to get there soon, preventing misunderstandings.
From within the dimensional rift, Aaron appeared as he took a stride followed by a small magical pulse.
He swung his left hand forward, neutralizing the powerful magic of the two women at the dispute.

"You’re over-testing her abilities, Aerith," Aaron said.
"She’s capable. At least she can withstand my magical pressure," Aerith replied, relaxing as she closed her eyes, no longer showing aggressiveness.
Eloise did the same even though she gasped with exhaustion during Aerith’s magic pressure. The woman turned her head towards Aaron, the man’s presence shocking her quite a bit.
"Aaron? What the—"
"I met him near the Dark Pillar’s gate, Sis," Emily interrupted, coming over and dismounting the Griffin. She stepped closer to Eloise.
"Is that so, huh? So, you’ve completed the floor boss challenge?" Eloise asked Aaron.
"I did."
The Sky Sword 25th leader’s woman asked the White Sword leader to wait outside. Eloise needed to talk to Aaron and didn’t want anyone to overhear.
The leader understood the situation. They returned and waited their turn like the other guests.
Eloise stepped down the stairs to be right before Aaron. Aerith squinted with the maroon light back in her eyes.
"I know, I’m not a good sister. I haven’t given you anything to thank you for saving Emily," Eloise replied.
"I’ll give you anything, whether it’s items or abilities? Or privileges in the city? Or anything else I can give you," Eloise expressed, her face blushing.
"Anything else you can give him? Excuse me! Are you out of your mind?" snapped Aerith, realizing the meaning of Eloise’s last question to Aaron.
"That’s my oath. I’ll give him anything he wants because Emily is everything to me."
Aaron was silent momentarily, letting the two women with different elements continue arguing about Aaron’s request. Aaron looked towards the fish pond, looking at the beautiful fish filling it, all in groups.
"Grouping up makes things easy."
"With a group, many benefits can be obtained."
"Because of a group, one can feel self-preserved."
Aerith and Eloise turned to Aaron, curious why the man said that. Aaron sighed softly, then turned his head to the side to look at Eloise.
Eloise had held the title of the leader of Sky Sword 25th for a long time, which had given her valuable experience. Aaron planned to ask about her experience.
"I have a wish," said Aaron.
"What is it?" asked Eloise.
"Help me establish a group in this city!"
