"You really think that kind of threat would work on me?" Evon laughed, the smile on his face stretching wider, amused rather than intimidated.
There was disappointment buried in that expression too. His exoskeleton-enhanced blows had dealt with Na far too easily. It left him unsatisfied. During their fight, Evon had confirmed something important, the superhumans he'd heard about, and even seen once or twice, were far beyond what Na displayed. Na was strong, sure, but he wasn't that level. Perhaps a half-step. A diluted version. Something unfinished.
And that meant Evon still had not tested the full potential of his exoskeleton suit.
Now, with Aron stepping into the ring, Evon's intrigue sharpened. If Aron possessed strength similar to Na, and if the two together represented some hidden organization, then perhaps they would mimic the level of a true superhuman. That idea excited him. It meant he finally had a worthy test subject.
