The hero state, it was no ordinary state, no, it was a state by which the hero harnessed the divine power of the goddess for a small time, pushing his body beyond all known limits and giving him power unlike what he had before.
"Lance awakened that state in a battle to save Vermilion, yet somehow he has awakened it already, this isn't good," Riven thought.
Lance looked at him and pointed his sword at Riven, it kept vibrating even more. "I wanted so badly to defeat you, so badly that I pushed my body to the max, and I got to the second circle.
But I knew that that wasn't ever going to be enough, and there was no way that I could get to the third circle, going that fast would shatter my spirit zone and probably kill me.
So instead, I focused on harnessing the divine power of Lumis, with the help of the church. While you were away, I finally connected to her and awakened this state.
