The next morning, everyone arrived to stand ready, Lillim eyeing Carl dangerously as she noticed Equinox's new power.
"Grandma, don't care if I can't control him, I trust him."
"What are you talking about imbecile, I'm wondering why you have left the one bearing my legacy in such a pitiable condition."
"Because I really appreciate how I feel like you're all right behind me when Aegis is there. That means that having Aegis get even more powerful would make me wet myself." Carl laughed.
"Creator, I would never use my power against you." Aegis pleaded, not detecting the joke.
"I was joking, you're a trap. If people think you're my strongest, they won't expect someone like Equinox. At the very least if he appeared behind them, they'd give you an opening."
"I see, I can appreciate the strategic value." Aegis said, considering the potential for relishing the shock and horror.
"Anyway, we're going to grab some food then head out."
