News of the battle at Silverlake City reached Atlas City almost immediately.
Maxwell and the others had expected it… but they were still shaken.
Especially when they heard that Ethan—and some other person—had casually blown apart three powerhouses from the Void Realm. The looks on everyone's faces were… complicated, to say the least.
"…Are we sure we didn't misjudge it?" Arthur asked quietly. "Maybe those three weren't actually that strong?"
Maxwell shot him a look. "A single slap wiped dozens of Tier 9 and Tier 10 Enhanced into paste, and you're telling me they 'weren't that strong'?"
He snorted. "We should let them slap you once and see how 'not that strong' feels."
"Uh…" Arthur coughed, instantly backing down. "I was just saying."
Gabriel's expression stayed serious. "I never imagined Ethan's strength had reached this level. If we keep relations smooth with them, it'll be a blessing for The Atlas Federation."
"Agreed."
