Northern's Warning

A small pale smile appeared on Northern's lips.

"Despite your arrogant front, you have well-polished instincts, something that could not have been gained without dancing at the edge of death every second."

The smile on his lips slowly transitioned into a grin.

"So, I take it that you know what it means to die?"

Northern's cold voice caused tingling tendrils of fear to curl around Nel, shuddering his entire being.

Nel was a personality created by the strain put on the brain—a personality created to propagate the true potential of a talent without emotional limitations.

Storing impacts of strikes was not easy; it required a durable mind, else the impact would take its toll on Lenn's mind before he could return it.

But Lenn was strong; in fact, he surpassed his family's expectations. He was able to handle the ability for an extensive duration.

This caused him to be favored and even be named heir. He was the strongest after his father.
