It took Ethan almost two years to reach level 2 in his ability. However the time taken to reach level 3, really tested his patience quite a lot.
'8 years. It took me 8 years to reach Level 3,' Ethan sighed as he wondered how long it would take him to reach level 4.
His current strength had reached the higher tier. All aspects of his physique had reached the higher tier. With his current strength and combat technique, he could easily defeat Emmett.
The only reason being that his entire physique had levelled up.
Moroeover the exp required to upgrade his talent had also gone up by 15. Still Ethan knew that he had long time before he could even reach the top tier.
The leaders of Volturi mainly Aro could be said to be at the top tier. In the movie, he was able to fight Edward, who was at top tier in speed and Bella whonwas at top tier in physical strength at the same time. Although he got killed in the end, it could demonstrate how strong he actually was just based on his physique.
Ethan had no idea why this was so. Was it because they drank the human blood? Or did the Vampires get stronger as they grow older?
Alongside Aro, the Volturi coven boasts other vampires of incredible physical strength. Caius, for example, is known for his ruthless and brutal combat tactics, often using his immense strength to overpower his opponents. His imposing stature and quick reflexes make him a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield.
Then there is Marcus, who may not be as overtly aggressive as Aro or Caius, but whose physical strength is no less formidable. Marcus possesses a silent but deadly power, his movements fluid and precise as he navigates the chaos of battle. His strength lies in his strategic mind and his ability to anticipate his opponent's every move.
Beyond the leaders of the Volturi coven, there are numerous other vampires whose physical strength is equally impressive. Some, like Jane and Alec, possess a different kind of strength, focused more on their supernatural abilities to inflict pain and incapacitate their enemies. Their agility and speed make them lethal adversaries, able to strike with lightning-fast precision.
Felix and Demetri, on the other hand, rely on their sheer brute force to overpower their opponents. Their muscles ripple with power as they move, and their strikes are enough to shatter low level vampires. Their physical strength is unmatched, making them formidable opponents in hand-to-hand combat.
As for the rest of the Volturi guard, each vampire possesses their own unique blend of physical prowess. From Santiago's lightning-fast reflexes to Renata's almost impenetrable shield, the Volturi coven is a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield. Their physical strength is a testament to their age and experience as vampires, as well as their relentless dedication to honing their skills.
Over the centuries, they have honed their bodies and abilities to perfection, becoming masters of combat and physical prowess. The human blood they consume may also play a role in enhancing their strength, granting them a more potent and primal energy that fuels their formidable abilities.
As he was comparing the strengths of the vampires in Volturi, hisbears suddenly twitched.
Ethan's heightened senses caught a faint sound coming from deep inside the forest, a sound that was filled with the clash of metal against metal, grunts, and the rustling of leaves. His sharp eyes narrowed as he honed in on the source, the primal energy within him roaring to life as he commanded his bear to remain in its position. With careful and deliberate steps, he moved closer to the epicenter of the commotion, the sound intensifying with each passing moment.
As he entered a small clearing, his eyes widened at the scene before him. A shape shifter and a vampire were locked in a fierce battle, their movements a blur of speed and precision.
The shape shifter, a massive wolf-like creature, was badly wounded, blood matting its fur and staining the forest floor. Despite its injuries, it fought with an unwavering determination, a testament to the fierce spirit of the shape shifters.
On the other hand, the vampire who was pitted against the shape shifter moved with a calculated grace and predatory efficiency However, despite the vampire's formidable prowess, Ethan couldn't help but notice something off about their fighting style. The movements lacked the fluidity and finesse that were characteristic of the seasoned fighters, instead, they seemed to be more raw and unrefined.
Their strikes were powerful, but lacked the strategic cunning and calculated efficiency that defined a proper combat style. It was as if the vampire was relying solely on their brute strength, foregoing the disciplined approach that made the vampires so formidable in battle.
Ethan's curiosity piqued, and he studied the vampire's every move with a keen eye, analyzing their fighting style and looking for any weaknesses that he could exploit. As the battle raged on, the vampire's inexperience became more apparent, their movements becoming increasingly reckless and uncoordinated.
It was clear that the vampire had never been trained in fighting, or had never fought a shape shifter before.
Ethan smirked as he realized that both of them had already sensed his presence but had decided to ignore him like a fly in the air. After all, according to them, what could a weak human with a beating heart do to them?
