"Why did you conclude this?"

Gwenu looked toward her master, feeling her lip twitch.

She had been with Gralith since she was a little girl. She had lost count of the number of conversations she had hadwith him, and how many times he had guided her.

But never once—not a single time—had she ever heard him ask a question of someone. At the very least, he had never asked one that wasn't rhetorical or in some attempt to guide her to the right answer herself.

But this… this was the master she had always respected, the master she felt knew and understood everything, asking something of an F-tier he didn't understand himself.

She didn't know how to deal with this at all.

"I've fought the Tiger Lineage before on my home world." 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Gralith's eyes narrowed.

When Sylas said this, he seemed to have thought of something, but Sylas himself was also paying attention to Gralith's reaction.

Until this moment, Sylas still had no idea how the Scorpion Warlord Lineage had even ended up on Earth in the first place. But the fact Gralith was asking this question at least struck off one possibility… The odds that the Sanctum as a whole was related to the invasion of Earth were unlikely.

"And?" Gralith pressed.

"I didn't know enough about Warlord Armors back then, but my memory remains. Every Lineage, even if they follow the same Beast Path, has their own unique fingerprint. The tweaks and changes made to the mesh of a Warlord Armor are hard to hide, and it's especially obvious in one's Will. As you've said before, the Sanctum is less of a hub of Rune Masters and far more of a hub for masters of Will.

"The 713th Tiger Warlord's Will was far too similar to that person's. It mapped onto it one for one. The only difference was in power.

"The odds that they were guided by the same person, or at least follow the same philosophies, is better than 90%.

"But what's been obvious these last few months is that this is the first time the Thryskai have been a part of this Sanctum 073. So there's only one explanation left."

Gralith observed Sylas for a long while, his breathing steady and his expression unreadable.

Sylas spoke of it so simply, but feeling out the intricacies of a C-tier Will wasn't something that should be possible even for another C-tier, let alone an F-tier.

Just how sensitive was Sylas to Wills?

It was easy to speak of his talent in Runes, or his intelligence, but just what was this Will talent? Gralith had simply never seen an F-tier at this level, not even at the Emperor Sanctum.

It wasn't just that Sylas' Will was Marked—a level that not even the C-tiers of the Sanctum were at. In fact, throughout the universe, reaching this level was incredibly rare, on the order of one in a trillion.

But with his True Pride Seed, all Wills were culled under Sylas' presence. Trying to subtly use such a powerful Will to target him… well, it was like willfully exposing yourself to his senses.
