Just before the Goddess Themis gave the signal to fight, rows of text appeared in front of William.
[William, don't underestimate your opponent.]
The Half-Elf paused for a bit after reading the warning from his friend, Optimus.
His powerhouse status now could mainly be attributed to his "System".
Optimus was hailed as the Strongest System. Even Thirteen acknowledged that he was the strongest among them.
When the System of Cannon Fodders had rampaged in their homeworld, Optimus had received the SOS signal from his siblings.
However, he didn't do anything.
He had been ready to intervene but decided against it when he noticed that Thirteen only destroyed the vessel of the other Systems, leaving their Soul Cores intact.
As long as a system's Soul Core was unharmed, they would suffer no significant damage. Reconstructing a new vessel was also just a matter of time.
Of course, Optimus had more than one reason to stay back and just watch the System of Cannon Fodders.
