Lines of Fate
Ryu's senses flourished, after what felt like eons of battling it out in his own mind, he could finally feel the freedom of having full control of his faculties once more, and quite frankly, it was exhilarating.
Up until this point, the Protector Spirits had caused minor changes to his muscle memory, they didn't actually change anything fundamental about his body and he expected that this would continue.
Whatever the Diamond Protector Spirit gave should be far beyond what the other spirits had been capable of, but whether this was a good thing or a bad thing, still remained to be seen.
Until now, the focus that Ryu had toward increasing his own muscle memory and increasing his battle prowess while working with what he had was great. However, the breakthrough in his understanding of his Bloodlines and how they might be related to the Seven Corporeal Souls made him less enthusiastic about it.
