Grandmasters were at the topmost echelon of power in the current Orion.
As such, it was a wonder why Niton, with its seven Grandmasters, formerly ten, hadn't conquered the rest of Lexon.
The reasons? simple. All smaller powers would immediately join forces, creating a force that would make Niton step back, the moment one was targeted.
Couldn't they send Grandmaster assassins or something of the sort to kill those Grandmasters secretly?
Yeah…nope, it doesn't work that way.
At Grandmaster-rank and above, sneak attacks are not nearly as effective, as Grandmasters can sense one another, from the maximum of a mile.
Valin had been too engrossed in the ecstasy of his massacre to notice.
The smell of fear and the taste of blood had dulled his senses.
The existence of a Grandmaster is a threat to another, so their senses tingle if the aura or an attack of Grandmaster level happens near them, depending on the individual.
