He vows to rise from the ashes and conquer the beast master world, determined to become the greatest and reclaim his lost honor.

"I've been trying to move on. To ignore all the crap I've lived here and focus on what matters. But people like you," he said, his eyes locking onto Kenny, "are too curious to know why I never fight back."
Kenny took an instinctive step back, his earlier confidence faltering under Eratz's gaze.
Eratz's tone didn't waver.
