Final Battle (13)

Even though Ethan had faced countless enemies, he had never faced one that ignored his defenses like that… his armor wasn't even being affected.

The enemies' ability to unleash such devastating attacks and display intricate knowledge was rooted in their access to the essence and knowledge of countless individuals who had perished with unresolved regrets. As agents of chaos, they possessed a unique connection to the collective consciousness of those lost souls, tapping into their combined experiences and wisdom.

Through this connection, the enemies gained insight into the battle's intricacies and their adversaries' vulnerabilities. They drew upon the departed's knowledge and regrets to enhance their power, leveraging the collective essence to develop formidable techniques and tactics.
