Ves did not care too much about his phase lord cultivation, but that did not mean he neglected it entirely.
As the Red War continued to press red humanity back, it became increasingly more important to grasp as much power as possible.
As a mech designer, Ves ordinarily shouldn't be so obsessed over strengthening his personal combat capabilities.
Yet he knew from previous experiences that he could not always get what he wanted. His habit of making risky decisions did not help matters either.
For example, he should have made preparations to withdraw the rear of human-occupied space like many others. That would have enabled him to minimize contact with dangerous enemies and reduce the need for strong personal protection.
Yet instead of making this common sense decision, Ves willfully did the opposite!
