Unfortunately, like the Aurae Codex, this Aether Artifact was far too advanced, both in terms of grade and technology, for his body to replicate its properties. If he tried, severe physical and mental aftermath leaving him half dead was by far the most optimistic outcome.

There was a saying among Players who had completed their fifth Ordeal: "If you've killed someone, you've finished the tutorial. If you've killed 100 enemies, you've proven yourself. If you've killed 10,000 enemies, you're respectable. If you've killed 1 million enemies, you're dangerous. If you've killed 100 million enemies, you're strong. If you've killed so many enemies that no one can count them anymore, you're invincible."

In the meantime, the other recruits of their squad had also joined them, feeling safer around the four Players. When they heard what he had just said, one of them changed expression, stepping out of the role she had played so well until now.

'I've been considering that,' Jake chuckled, crouching to search the previous corpse for an item that might serve as a tracker for Anthace. 'But in a word, prestige. My enemies, as well as my allies, need to see me in action as a role model to appreciate and respect me. Plus, if I know the enemy is laying a trap, can we still say I'm caught in it? Once I'm aware of their plans, it's more like I'm ambushing them.'
