Zeek, and the Greater Fate

"Damn that foolish avatar of greed and pride!"
Cursing, Lethe canceled the summon of the Metal Slime. Having stopped the shadow duel that he thought would have gone so terribly wrong, Lethe retreated to Ground Zero. He noticed that even during that short conflict, the Circuit had filled up significantly - thus he knew that it was the a right choice to have stopped the Duel.

"The power of the shadow duel was powerful and the boy's potential is even greater - the boy would have reenacted what happened here 15 years ago."

That would have created too much commotion and needless chaos in the city. Lethe decided that Zeek must not face Shiro again until he is able to control his own potential. And he must learn to do so in less than a week, unless.....

Lethe decided he must first try to get the boy to realize his potentials, and he blended into the shadows near Zeek's home, awaiting his return.

But when he felt a dark force entering Ground Zero, he moved to see what that Shiro was up to.
