after Ethan had left beacon,he had first travelled all the Grimm populated areas that were reported to the city
all his suspecions were proven correct as he learned that there were many white fang bases spread through out the area,
after capturing a few high ranking members, he learned about the horrific plan that they had cooked up but he had still failed to catch the main culprit so he decided to investigate even more, in the meanwhile, he killed every Grimm that he found so that the invasion force would be thinned down,
he soon discovered that the one behind the attack was none other than the tranfer student he had seen before, cinder fall
he immediately transformed his god ark into it's rocket form and flew towards beacon, but what he found there enraged him to no end,
beacon had fallen, many civiians were either dead or injired, but what infuriated him the most was the sight of pyrrah about to be killed by cinder,
in his rage, he had unknowingly activated his blood arts for the very first time,
a blood art is a special power that belongs to a god eater child, it is unique to an individual just like a semblace,
in Ethan's case, the blood arts allowed him to multiply all of his abiloties by over 10 times for a short amout of time, it also allowed him to actively drain the power of his foe while activated,
the activation of the blood arts caused physical changes to happen on him, but he was too deep in rage to notice any of the changes,
he first charged towards the flying Grimm called wyvern, he used the black devil to sever it's wings,
and then under the stupefied gaze of cinder devoured the Grimm using his god ark,
but then, just as he was about to attack cinder, emarald used her semblance to project illusion on him long enough to escape with her,
meanwhile, the oracle cell in Ethan was already working to evolve him to be immune to such illusions again, it did this by giving ethan infrared and ultraviolet vision that could not be effected by illusions,
he then headed towards the bullhead where everyone was being evacuated to

in the land of darkness
the one controlling the Grimm, salem, stood solemly near her table,
she looked at the pools of grimm from which new Grimm were being born but she could see that the number was significantly less than before,
normally, when a Grimm is killed, it's essence is transfered back to the pool, thanks to the power of the god of darkness, this essence would then give birth to a new grimm,
but since a few months ago, she sensed that there existed someone who disrupted this process,
everytime he killed a grimm, instead of the essence returning to the pools, it was insted absorbed by this man, making it so that the grimm cannot be reborn,
the recent demise of the wyvern was a mojor hit to this cycle as it contained thousands of years of essence which was now lost forever,
salem turned towards a faunus with scorpion tail sitting near her,
" go and find information about this 'Ethan' person" she said to which the maniac nodded with an insane grin on his face
