Spirit and body become one.
A miraculous phenomenon, the manifestation of a person’s inner strength.
Such union grants an extraordinary power, one that knows no bounds: the Spirit Mode.
Zaccharias and Mare were attentive bystanders of the forthcoming fight between Lied and the Animus. There was a huge power gap and merely the miracle of the Spirit Mode could help him even the odds.
“I know. This monster is harder than anything I have faced so far. The only way to beat it…” Lied thought, crestfallen.
The young man clenched his fist and then raised his head to look at the beast.
“Anyway, I have to do what I can. If I just stand still, I’ll definitely die.”
Lied sighed and punched the Animus twice in the chest. The critter felt nothing as the teenager threw a leg kick next, but it did no damage either. The Animus responded by letting out a deafening roar that sent him flying against the wall.

The male got up immediately, meanwhile his opponent had vanished without trace. Lied focused all his attention on feeling the enemy’s presence, nevertheless Sensitivity did not work again as he knelt after being hit in the belly.
“G-Gah…!”
The human made a quick return thrust, yet it was as if he was not even tickling. The Animus flung him away as they fought in midair. Lied tried using Visibility in order to dodge its attacks, but to no avail. The monster disappeared into thin air once more before reappearing milliseconds later in front of the lad to mercilessly attack him.
“That’s…” Zaccharias noticed Lied’s eyes intermittently turn white.
The beast literally beat the boy to a pulp. Lastly, the critter lifted him up with its claw and headbutted him in the face. He fell to the ground like a broken toy.
“This isn’t even a fight” Mare covered her mouth with her hands.
Lied could barely stand as he felt his own body heavy, almost blacking out.
“Please go, Zaccharias…!” Mare asked the teacher to help his student.
“Take a good look at him. Do you think those are the eyes of someone who has already lost?” Zaccharias asked her.
Despite not having any strength left, Lied did not give up as he raised one leg at a time.
“…They are white?” the aztec witnessed the phenomenon of the “Adam’s Eyes”, awakened by the unbreakable resolve of the boy.
