While Diogre, Lieut, Scarlet and Simon decided to take a break and attempt to breakthrough with the two Riel Stones they were given each, other teams were locked in fierce battles of their own.
Gunther still had a wild rabbit stuck to his butt, he couldn't shake it off and was scared that if he did it violently it would come off with his entire behind. The tears were close to falling but he held them back.
While Gunther was originally said to not have any potential by Lilith, Levi decided to take a leap of faith with him. He had heart, with a strong will, there was no harm in giving him a chance to see whether he would blossom.
Their ability to detect potential wasn't something that was for certain and it hadn't been proven right, maybe it had a 90% success rate, they wouldn't know until all seven hundred of them reach Primordial.
Levi was someone who liked exploring all possibilities and this little experiment was a part of that.
