Eren's nails lengthened into sharp, curved weapons, and his hands aged in an instant.
They looked like the bony, worn hands of an old man—wrinkled, dark, and dry.
That was when Eren's heart began to beat like a war drum.
Thump-thump. Thump-thump. Thump-thump.
He had activated two of his strongest Abilities.
Life Drain—which turned his hands into vampiric tools that sucked life force straight out of his target.
Hero's Heart—which boosted his strength, speed, regeneration, and other body stats as long as he kept absorbing life force.
Even though these Abilities they were not fully supported by Menaka's Mesh in Labh Salem, they were still very useful. Especially in certain situations like the one he had found himself in at this point.
These two powers worked in perfect sync. One drained energy. The other used it to push Eren's body beyond its limits.
