Fallen Star City…
Inside the Fallen Star Squad's enhancement chambers…
Everyone stopped training. They just stood there, watching Ethan with open expectation, not daring to make a sound.
Ethan, meanwhile, had slipped back into that void space again. He stared at the dense scatter of light points and started searching carefully for what he wanted.
At this point, he had mobility, control, and damage. What he was still missing was reliable AOE and—more importantly—something that would keep him alive.
Sure, for crowd-clearing he could use Telekinesis to control multiple daggers at once, but that was manual. It wasn't the kind of casual, lazy swipe that deleted a whole area. Convenient AOE could wait. Other people could cover that role. Ethan's real job was decapitation—cut the head off the snake.
What he needed now was a true survival tool.
His speed and offense were way ahead of his Tier… but his defense wasn't.
