Since his rebirth, Adam's BODY slots had remained deliberately empty.
Equipping a conduit, armament or any item for the body in general through his special talent was no different from holding it physically, even the resistance from rank mismatch remained the same, as Equip did not negate the backlash.
It only forced the equipped item to 'stick'.
That was the nature of unranked talents.
Their base function was mundane, but their potential, after reawakening, was where value emerged.
Equip alone had been limited.
But with Fuse awakened Adam believed the BODY slot had purpose.
He had intended to test it safely in a controlled environment like the manor to measure the strain.
Now?
There was no better moment.
William closed the distance again, his Star power still steady at sixteen.
Adam looked down at the abandoned conduits.
Six BODY slots were available, so he moved instantly.
Five slots activated and the conduits on the ground lifted slightly as connection threads formed.
