Veda, Nickolas, and Bobby stood near the edge of the castle wall as they watched Ezra climb the rope back up from the ground.
Ezra moved smoothly.
His hands shifted along the rope with steady rhythm while his legs pushed against the stone wall to gain height. His body moved like someone who had climbed walls and cliffs many times before.
It didn't look forced.
It looked natural.
Nickolas narrowed his eyes.
Ezra wasn't just getting stronger in ability. Something deeper had changed.
Ever since the memories of his past life began unlocking, pieces of knowledge and skill seemed to surface along with them. They didn't come as thoughts alone. They appeared inside his muscles and reflexes.
His body reacted to situations before his mind even finished thinking.
With Ezra's fast mind, the two things worked together perfectly.
He could process the reflexes immediately and use them without hesitation.
Soon Ezra pulled himself over the wall and stepped onto the stone floor.
