Now that everything else was behind him, literally in a sense, Xenos was finally ready to prepare the conditions of becoming a Shepherd.
'Experience,' he could get on the way, but the Rune he wanted?
He'd likely only get it from Tartaros itself.
Of course, even if he did find it and got the 'experience' for it, he'd still need to learn Synaxis.
Xenos wasn't particularly worried. If anything, he was excited.
His kind of 'excited,' which usually meant trouble for everyone else.
The path was clear in his mind: find the Rune, get stronger, and learn Synaxis, the one technique that separated normal Runebearers from upcoming powerhouses.
Again, that was the biggest bottleneck in the lower classes.
A technique of using, or rather, embodying all Runes simultaneously.
Letting them all breathe together until they painted themselves across the body.
The state that allowed for a partial transformation, a mini internal Rune Domain.
