The Liberators progressed fastest of all.
Lucien had expected that.
He still found the results excessive.
Their abilities had never followed one common system.
Accelerated training gave the Liberators time to learn how to actually use what they had received.
Lucien put them through increasingly complicated exercises.
Their individual progress was impressive.
Their combined progress was worse.
One Liberator could create conditions another one's ability exploited.
He stopped trying to predict all of them.
Most of the newly recovered Liberators had already reached the Celestial Realm.
Lucien personally assisted them through the creation of their Nihility Bodies once their foundations were ready.
After forming their Nihility Bodies, their progress accelerated again.
Lucien watched several of them and realized that, if nothing interrupted the current pace, a few more external months could be enough for many to begin approaching Eternal.
That was absurd.
