What is going on? How can a scrawny kid like him be this strong?
Wallace's eyes widened uncontrollably from shock.
Earlier…
He had forced himself to stay calm.
He kept brushing away the uncomfortable feeling growing inside him using his years of experience as reassurance.
But after watching Ezra casually destroy his earth spikes and kill multiple of his men without even breaking a sweat…
The confidence Wallace built through years of bloodshed suddenly started cracking apart.
'He looks weaker than you.'
The words he proudly told Zara earlier inside the gang hideout suddenly resurfaced inside his mind.
"This bullshit…"
He gritted his teeth hard.
Boom!
Ezra landed onto the frozen street while his dull black eyes calmly locked onto Wallace.
And strangely…
Wallace flinched.
Just slightly.
But he still did.
I'm… scared? No… no… no…
Impossible.
I'm Wallace.
A Binder-rank Alchemist.
How can I possibly feel fear toward some little brat?!
"ATTACK HIM YOU BASTARDS!"
