Dismember. Horizon.

At some point, Lu'card stopped grumbling entirely. He didn't know where Ryu had gotten his hands on such good stuff, but at least he was showing some real sincerity. At the very least, Ryu didn't seem to be stingy with its use. Whenever he really was at his limit, he would use another. 

What was the most shocking to Lu'card was that he could feel his Bloodline returning to its origin. Every drop came with it a deepening of his talent that was astonishing. 

He already felt that he was on another level talent wise, but now he was truly becoming a monster. 

Deep into the journey, Lu'card began to wonder about his eyes. Much like Ryu had speculated, he had yet to unseal all 999 seals. In fact, he was still shy of 99, the second watershed. 

He had spent most of his time rebuilding his foundation, and for many Heavenly Pupil wielders, reaching 99 unlocked seals was already their limit. He thought he was doing well already.
