A while back, on his return to the Citadel following the battle at the Fume Cathedral, Adam fought against the silhouette of the Plague Reaper.
The situations were vastly different, but there was one similarity - it wasn't the real Plague Reaper.
However, the Plague Reaper had the same power level as he should have, the limit of Purple Threat Level or the strongest opponent for K1-Phantoms.
Such an adversary was too weak for Adam. No matter what the Plague Reaper was capable of, the difference in levels was too great.

For this reason, there was surprise in Adam's eyes, but no interest. He realized that the previous scenario would not happen again - the Plague Reaper was not strong enough.
Thump. Thump. Thump.
One star after another flew into the Plague Reaper filling its dark silhouette with dim light from the bright stars.
