"Peak human potential... and still not enough? Then what are these men? What have I stepped into?"
Alex was driving back home, but his mind was still reeling with Lilith's revelation... there were people out there stronger than him.
He hadn't gotten an answer about who they really were, but one thing was certain: he couldn't afford to be lazy anymore. He needed to push harder, complete his tasks aggressively.
A sharper urgency stirred in him, a hunger to climb higher. If finishing his revenge mission could grant him power, then maybe it was the key to closing that terrifying gap.
Lost in those thoughts, he barely noticed the streets passing by until he turned into his neighborhood.
He had just eased the car to a stop in front of his house when the sharp vibration of his phone cut through the silence. Glancing at the display, he saw the name.
Tisha.
