Exhausted
Ethan was very exhausted.
After the battle with the level 3 spearman and getting himself injured, that was the last time Ethan had gotten himself healed by Mia and had his energy recovered to its peak. But ever since then, especially due to the fight with the special duo, the high-intensity fight with no break had really drained Ethan both physically and mentally.
Fortunately for Ethan, he hadn't been in the situation where he'd have to use his mana in a fight because if he had, he would have been more exhausted than he was now. Even standing up on his own would be nothing short of impressive.
However, Ethan knew the battle was still far from over, and he couldn't rest yet.
For instance, Jolene and RageHeart were still entangled with the controlled players.
The fight looked pretty intense on the surface, since one part was going in for the kill while the other part was trying not to hurt anyone, which limited their combat prowess significantly.
