Ryu felt as though his head was being pounded by a continuous string of hammers. Even so, his gaze was entirely focused on the matrix before him.
Flying through the void without access to his usual level of Spacetime affinity was like blazing through a belt of asteroids at full speed with your eyes blindfolded. Even when he took out his matrix, the only difference was that while he was still blindfolded, he could barely hear the whistling of the asteroids… from within the cockpit of his ship.
It was truly not the best of situations, and if he ever failed to remain within the void and stepped out of an inappropriate location, he could very well find himself impaled by even the most mundane of materials. Losing his life to a stray and wandering leaf, or a bird's shit falling from the skies, wasn't on the top list of his priorities for the day, but given his situation, both were equally likely to happen.
