If he’d merely had a strengthened body, it wouldn’t have been impossible for Reinhardt to have break through; However, Regulus’s [Invincibility] clearly surpassed such a resistance.
Subaru: “It can’t be a super-strong barrier. All the measures to stop an [Invincible] enemy have been tried already. On top of that, he definitely lacks a heartbeat and body temperature. Then—”
The name of [Lion’s Heart] opened a thought, and the last piece of the puzzle fell in place.
Regulus’s Authority of [Greed] was not [Invincibility].
The true face of the murderer’s overwhelming power was [Stillness of an Object’s Time].
Already supplied, already appraised, without holes.
The words that Regulus always wore at his lips of distorted self-satisfaction, were about how he was a man satisfied with his ideal existence, but at the same time made no attempt to hide the nature of his ability.
Subaru: “The time of his body is frozen, so forget attacks; even the water won’t wet him. The time of the sand he throws is frozen, so it doesn’t bounce off, it goes straight through.”
Among the superpowers known in manga, there was a similar one of [Space Break].
This power, as its literal name suggested, caused a break with space itself, cutting something off from its surroundings, regardless of whatever may try to affect it; Regulus’s existence itself acted thus, on some level.
The Regulus Corneas who could cut himself off from the flow of time, could be said to be the distortion of space itself.
Indeed, he’d said, the dimension was different— [Invincibility] was but a side effect of [Stillness of an Object’s Time].
What was to say—
Subaru: “—The secret technique of freezing time’s your true ability!”-Arc 5, Chapter 56
