The Titans and Divine Ascension Masters quickly moved to Cain's side. The young man detected the explosion before any of them, allowing them to distance themselves from the Gods and sustain significantly fewer injuries from their self-destruction.
Clearly, the young man's perception and battlefield awareness were exceptionally high, crucial now that they faced such a mysterious enemy capable of unleashing an extremely powerful spell from an unknown location and taking the Void King away.
The great generals were extremely alert, ready to respond to anything as they glanced at each other. Most were still shocked to see that the Collapsing Lightning Duke had recovered, as Cain had revealed the knowledge of the plot only to those participating to avoid any mishaps. Fortunately, the Blood Duke and Holan shared their understanding with the great general as they waited for further instructions.
