"Gruesome deaths too." Cero commented, seeing the state of the cages and rats. "Did they blow up or something?"
"Something like that. You seriously have to be careful with that ability."
"Yeah…" Cero clicked his tongue. "I know." He massaged his face silently for a moment. "I haven't used it since."
"Good." Raya nodded. "We've been running tests for the last six months, but the real testing only starts now. In any case, we noticed that the subjects survived longer and longer as your ability got stronger."
'Through the use of Skill Points.'
Raya moved a hand to her chin.
"This one died after a month. This one after three weeks. This one survived for two weeks…"
"And this is the one from two days ago, right?"
"Yeah. It barely survived two full days."
"We've seen worse."
"Yes, the quickest death of the subject was less than a full minute later."
"It's a good thing I didn't start overusing it right away."
"It's a good thing that you told me about it as well."
