Chaos, Challenges, and Level Ups

[Jack Darby]

"Yes, you do,"  said Unicron as he took control for a moment. Looking around the environment of the castle, Unicron applied some Omnilium to create floating makeshift targets for Rafael to practice on. The only way the boy was going to get strong enough was with an actual opponent, being forced to fight for his life. Sure this training helped him to develop new creative ways of using the powers. Application of those creative ways, and experience was something the boy needed and Unicron needed. If they ever were to meet any of their long term goals they were going to need to get a lot stronger than they were. What Rafael needed was an actual challenge, and so Unicron thought about it. While Rafael had been asleep he had accessed the Dataverse. There had been something called "Dante's Abyss" that seemed like an interesting competition to make the boy participate in, without his help. Given Primes could respawn, and be up to full strength within 14 days of any losses that they had, and they were likely to recover swiftly this helped cement the decision of the Chaos Bringer. 

"Boy, there is a more effective teacher that you will meet, provided you do something." 

Rafael was curious, and Unicron could see that. 

"Participate in Dante's Abyss. Do your best to win the Tournament, and then the experience, and extra Omnilium you gain will help you get to the point where you can surpass your limitations. It is a shame you can't do that move you wanted to do with my Chaos Energy, yet. But we'll have to figure out a way to make that powerful attack work before the tournament."
