Vicente and Rory have continued to train daily to improve their collaboration, having reached an impressive level of combat for both of them.
Rory and Vicente realized they could fight above the level they normally could when they teamed up to form a massive storm.

She warned him about this during those days before returning to focus on the development of her faction, which he had authorized her to do.
