After the battle with the Demon King's clone, ??? did not grant Lucian Darkheart and Aaaninja Chronisynth Eternos any specific skill or ability in particular, nor did he offer them something visibly structured or immediately comprehensible. Instead, he simply bestowed upon them one of the skills they had secretly wished they possessed, a desire buried deep within their hearts and ambitions.
Even ??? himself did not know what that skill was, as he had consciously and deliberately prevented himself from knowing. After all, there is nothing that can truly be entertaining if you already know how it begins, how it unfolds, how it escalates, and how it inevitably ends, for mystery is the marrow of amusement.
