'Even with all my efforts I still failed...'
Ethan gritted his teeth hard, jaw trembling with the pressure.The pain in his body roared, but the bitterness in his chest was even louder.
What use was Fate-Breaker if he couldn't even use it when it mattered most?
He was an Awakened, yes— But two of his so-called skills were so damn hard to use they felt like a cruel joke right now.
'Maybe I should've just killed beasts to get enough Fate-Breaking points…' He nodded stiffly at that useless thought. Mocking himself. 'As if that was even an option.'
He was a smart guy—
Sharp enough to know when a path was a dead end. Choosing to fight now, to rack up points while surrounded in this nightmare...
That wasn't a plan.
That was suicide. While racking up points he could easily get surrounded by beasts of unimaginable strength and ability.
His mind scrambled through options— fight? Dead end. Break free by force? Against this many? Another dead end.
