Ethan had always thought that Nicole was the most dazzling, confident young lady that he had seen in his life.
She had a certain charm and confidence oozing out of her body, which had made Ethan feel intimidated when he saw her for the first time.
During the Initiation Ceremony, when he experienced his first Dungeon Run, Nicole cleared it without even breaking a sweat.
Back then, Lily told him that if she wished for it, she could have done the same. But since she wanted to keep a low profile, she chose to be eliminated early in the competition.
Ethan had no doubt that his wife was telling the truth. But that didn’t change the fact that, among the Pillars of the First Years, Nicole stood out.
She was even hailed as the Strongest Pillar of the First Years back then.
Little had he known that, behind closed doors, the dazzling and confident young lady whom he had feared and admired the most was suffering because of the Legacy that she had acquired when she was young.
