Strength didn't matter

[17.7%]

Adam stared at that number for a while, until it exploded into a bright light that quickly headed towards the cracks, causing them to return to their previous state.

Now, the First Wall looked the same as before, as if Adam had never struck this strange, majestic object.

Adam smiled bitterly, he scratched the back of his head awkwardly and glanced at his Evolution Tree.

"Will you say something? I don't think so, though. I doubt it's normal for Phantom and his Evolution Tree to talk freely like humans." Adam shook his head.

[Weak...]

But... suddenly he heard a rare but familiar voice.

[Your previous path... Your last battle... The walls are too strong... I warned you...] Adam rolled his eyes like a disgruntled child who got a moral instead of praise.

"Come on! 17.7% isn't much, but I'll have more attempts. I'll be much stronger!" Adam vigorously uttered as he swung his fist, showing off his muscles.
