Ryu sighed, as he rolled over and awoke, his infolink patching in information. As instructed by Kurosekai, he had kept his distance from the German units, and watched them from a distance to see what was happening. Ryu seemed mostly interested in observing only those with actual Gifts in action, and didn't seem to pay any mind to those who were artificially enhanced.

Sleeping out in the open was less uncomfortable than Ryu anticipated, but then again, he had a lot of training and mental conditioning to live in a tough condition. He was a field agent, after all. It had made him lose a lot of sleep, but Ryu had figured out how best to optimize his phasing ability ... and a new equation had soon popped into his mind after that. Ryu tested it on enemies, and to his contentment, it worked.

Ryu had finally pinned his personal phasing to his Specific Field. The first real growth in power he had since two years, when he first figured out how to bring things with him when he phased. He placed emphasis on actual survival than offensive ability. Yet, his new equation came in useful. It was an ability to phase even ranged enemies into the Rift Plane for limited time periods, which he figured out from phasing his voice, and how his power used to work on his body.

Of course, it wasn't a very refined ability yet, but Ryu figured out it would allow him to fight one on one. Also, if a phased enemy was returned to reality intersecting him, Ryu realized the phased enemy was still displaced, rather than him. It was as if the Rift Plane recognized his bodily integrity was more, and afforded him more to bend the rules. After all, phased enemies or allies couldn't walk through walls, and didn't gain a speed boost. And they dropped into the real world the moment they moved into a nullifier's field.
