While Ves was experiencing a crisis sparked by the possibility that his wife might overtake him, the duel between the two ace mechs had become more cruel and intense than before!
The principal reason why the two ace mechs attacked each other with greater force and urgency was because of the profound transformations initiated by Patriarch Reginald.
The more time went by, the more Reginald became more familiar with what he could do with his bonded ace mech.
His control over the Mars improved because his instinctual and unconscious understanding of every single part or system continued to grow.
Of course, his new and unprecedentedly deep bond with the Mars did not grant him the theoretical understanding of how his mech actually worked from a technical perspective.
Even if he became as smart as knowledgeable as Master Benedict Cortez, Reginald still wouldn't be able to explain everything anymore.
