Ramon was already in a state of profound shock, his mind reeling from the reality of having lost his fight against Max. He honestly couldn't believe it; his calculations had been flawless, his technology superior. Yet, as he lay there, there was only one simple answer that could explain the impossible: the person he had been up against had to be superhuman. The reason Ramon hadn't come to this conclusion sooner was that Max's abilities weren't overtly flashy. It wasn't immediately obvious when fighting him.
It had just seemed like he was slightly stronger, slightly faster, and slightly more durable than a peak athlete. But Ramon had to remind himself that he was wearing a full-body exoskeleton suit, a masterpiece of engineering that was incredibly fast and powerful. For a regular person to be able to break all that high-grade equipment with their bare hands and feet as Max had done, a superhuman constitution was the only logical answer.
