Wesson was now very clear that he had already reported his experience with absorbing Soul Flames, so even if he chose to give up now, he would not be allowed into the urban area.
Since he could no longer return to the city, the difference between continuing the test and stopping it was not significant, so Wesson did not hesitate to choose to continue testing.
When they heard Wesson's firm decision to continue the test, neither his Sharp Blade Team teammates nor the personnel at Command Headquarters were surprised.
Wesson's teammates were well aware of his obsession with repairing his hands, while Command Headquarters operated on the principle of maximizing benefits to speculate on Wesson's thoughts.
After receiving Wesson's response, a new order came through the earpiece: "All members of the Sharp Blade Team must fully cooperate with Wesson's testing of the Skeletal Soul Fire, but be vigilant about his mental state at all times and report immediately if any anomaly is detected."
