The Empowerer's Revenge Hounds

Lionel Lane, a support class Empowerer, was betrayed and expelled by his teammates before the Martial Arts Qualifier. In despair, he contracted four stray dogs, triggering a hidden Empowerer effect for extraordinary power growth. He led the hounds to the Qualifier, humiliated former teammates, defeated rivals, hunted Monarch-Rank Beasts, and saved the city, proving dogs are more loyal than people.
