Dante panted heavily, falling to his ass immediately. If you asked him what exactly just happened and why, he would be hard-pressed to answer. Not only did he not know where he was, but he was suddenly attacked before he could even get his bearings.
The sad part was that he would very much love to increase his stats to 250,000 in Intelligence and send his spirit sense out for the full range, which would be an amazing 250 kilometers, but it did not work like that.
Only his Eyes of Illusion were directly affected by enhancements to stats. The two physical and magical methods, though, did not because they had their own realms and rules. This was why they were selected in the first place, so that they would be useful in the Zero Gate where the tech enhancements would be disabled.
