If Evelyn's husband awakened an ability, she would no longer have to divide her attention between the battlefield and her family.
She could devote herself fully to protecting the base.
As for Fred...
Kisha had already made other arrangements.
She had granted him unrestricted access to the blacksmith workshop and every weapon upgrade the base could produce.
His awakened ability revolved around firearms.
The stronger his weapons became...
The more terrifying Fred himself would become.
The moment Evelyn received the Awakening Set and truly understood what it was capable of, her body froze.
Her eyes reddened almost instantly as unshed tears welled up, blurring her vision. She bit down hard on her lower lip, forcing herself not to cry.
Kisha was right.
This wasn't merely a gift.
It was hope.
