[Above the Forest - Damian's Observation]
Damian sat on Kuro's back, watching his students fight with something approaching pride.
'Ariana and Zavier both had traumatic experiences that should have broken them. But instead they became stronger… Their Will attributes must have increased significantly.'
He could sense it in their movements. The absolute conviction and the ruthless efficiency.
'So... Will really does improve when life hits you hard and when you're forced to choose between breaking or becoming stronger…
They chose strength.'
Occasionally he intervened – when a student got overwhelmed, when an attack would cause serious injury rather than educational damage.
Bam Bam Bam
Sounds of his gun roaring was reassuring for the students.
But never for the core members. Ariana, Zavier, Edrin, Ronan, Lysa, Marcus and Selena – they received no help.
They needed to prove they could survive without him.
And they did!
