Reon remained motionless, thoughts quietly turning behind his calm eyes.
"Since awakening the Core Void Eye… I've unlocked three Abyssal Absorption Arts. All still at Level One… and already terrifying."
He exhaled slowly.
"The cooldown's long—twice a day max. And the effect only works on enemies within two major realms above me. Anyone beyond that… This art won't hold."
Luna's voice echoed again, soft and soothing like moonlight on still water.
"Don't worry, Master. That weakness will vanish as you grow stronger."
He smiled faintly in thought.
"Yeah. You're right. That can wait…"
Then—he looked up.
His gaze locked onto Yi Ran.
And he took a slow step forward.
"Do you have anything else left to try?"
The words came out smooth, sharp—like a blade she hadn't seen until it was already drawn.
He tilted his head slightly. The corner of his mouth curled into a cold smirk.
"Oh. Right."
"You don't even have any Spiritual Energy left."
