Enjoy turtles 
I mean, it's obvious that Urek is stronger. These developments only make Eduan look like a sore loser. He would lose even with the spear.Its honestly 100% on SIU, SIU trying hard to reveal power scaling WITHOUT actually reveal power scaling, thats why in all fight its always "but i dont bring my main weapon" , or "if only i dont get hurt"
To be fair this kind of trope is exhausting enough, especially after years of his career making Tower of God
According to the og lore Yirang got her flames from a native one. So she could also be on the “merchant” list potentially. As much as I like Gustang I have to be honest, he’s probably the biggest weapons merchant out of everyone. But at least he doesn’t forget to bring his damn weapons so he clears Eduan in my books.Yurin got those hands.
Blossom got THE flames.
Even Yeon Hana got the flames.
Traumerei's got that dura neg that mostly doesn't care about tiers.
But man, Zahard is a weapon's and artifacts merchant and Golden needle spammer, Arie Hon's identity is tied to the White Oar.
Edhuan too is all too reliant on his Main spear and seems like that's what makes him what he is the way he talks about it and makes excuses.
In terms of talent or potential I rank Edhuan far below Gustang and Traumerei, can't even sugarcoat it ngl.
A bit of convenience, as in someone strong and knowledgeable about the Tower could be useful to bring around, and a bit of testing his character, as in wants him around to properly get to know him imo.Why do you think Urek wants Eduan as subordinate? What do you think he has in mind?

I won't be surprised if Yurin got some armor or shield. Han also has a needle. Enryu has thorn. Tuperie has Opera. The list goes on and onYurin got those hands.

Hendo is the one who’ll have the armor or shield. I don’t think Yurin will have that.I won't be surprised if Yurin got some armor or shield. Han also has a needle. Enryu has thorn. Tuperie has Opera. The list goes on and on

In that Icarus flashback, hendo(I’m sure it’s him) was seen possessing shogun type armour. Ari han(I think it’s him) had a needle on him. Then you look at Yurin and see that she had nothing on her. I honestly think she’s Jinsung but upscaled to the absolute peak. She definitely has an abundance of artifacts of course but I don’t think her strongest moves are dependent on those.Most i see her having is some gauntlets ngl.
Makes sense maybe it will be ultimate form of the armour karaka and Dumas usesHendo is the one who’ll have the armor or shield. I don’t think Yurin will have that.

??? Eduan is an Irregular, he isn't bound by contracts. We are told that Admins can interfere when Rankers are doing too much in a Regular Area but it has yet to happen. The Admin not interfering when Yuri VS Karaka was happening was meant to be a hint that some of them are pro FUG.I was trying to understand this chapter more carefully and ended up talking it through with an AI chat.
Earlier, I thought maybe they could just escalate fully and let an Administrator isolate the fight, kind of like an execution arena. But thinking about it more, I don’t think that actually exists in canon. Administrators do not create separate neutral dimensions for fair combat; anything they isolate remains fully under system control. Eduan only ever mentions Administrator interference, not permission to fight all‑out. Once escalation crosses a Shinsoo threshold, the conflict ends by system enforcement, not by victory.
Since Eduan is a system‑contracted figure, once that threshold is crossed, the system takes over, and even he becomes powerless to continue the fight. That’s why the match stays a childish bet instead of escalating into a real all‑out battle. Eduan loses the bet to Urek, and people don’t like it, but the fight stopping early doesn’t change the result; it explains why it didn’t go further.
There is no canon all‑out arena because the Tower prioritizes stability over proving strength, and that consistency is what makes the world‑building work.

A.A. himself thought that the Admin not interfering during Yuri VS Karaka was odd. Yuri and Karaka are not only two Rankers, they were fighting close to the Hell Train yet nothing happened. Rak and Yihwa almost died.I think Yuri vs Karaka never crossed a Shinsoo or stability threshold, which is why there was no reason for an Administrator to intervene. Eduan vs Urek is a completely different scale. Eduan's mentioning of Administrator interference shows that beyond a certain point, the system would step in and shut the situation down. Administrator interference can include severely restricting or even shutting down Shinsoo flow on their Floor. Once that happens, the fight stops being Shinsoo‑based and becomes raw physical conflict only. For someone like Eduan, whose strongest techniques and comparisons rely on Shinsoo usage, this effectively ends the fight as it was framed.
Almost dying has never been the trigger for the admin intervention. Thresholds are about shinso circulation and floor stability, not individuals. Yuri vs Karaka stayed inside the thresholds, while Eduan vs Urek risks the system level disruption, which is why Eduan explicitly brings up admin interference. If admin intervened whenever individuals were in danger then regular tests would not exist, ranker interference would be constant, and the Hell Train arc would be impossibleA.A. himself thought that the Admin not interfering during Yuri VS Karaka was odd.
