For even a Transcendent to have died in the tower, it could only be said that the threshold for success in the Luminescent Tower was now on a completely unfathomable level.
Something had certainly changed between now and the first time Theron had entered. Or, maybe, it was as simple as the Luminescent Tower shifting its challenge to suit the world that it was in.
Either way, maybe because he was sending clones in and had never entered with his main body, Alpha was able to continuously abuse this, and he improved by leaps and bounds as a result.
Every small incremental improvement his clones made was tripled by the time they returned to his body, stacked until they could hardly be stacked… and yet even those plateaus would be entirely blown through.
Theron tried to see if cutting his Karma would allow him to enter now. It was a risk, but he had always been a confident person, even if he had been much more silent in the past.
