There were a few questions to ask sometimes, Maxi though to himself, wearing that dark blue, gold-hemmed horned "suit of armor", which was really just a very well done, not at all unexpensive cosplay that he artificially toughened up through the use of his own ice powers. It essentially meant that he could literally wear any and all cosplay armor and have it be as effective as any suit of real armor, all thanks to his maddeningly useful powers.
It helped, since if his suit was ever damaged, replacing it was quite quick, since making cosplay is undeniably quicker than working steel into the shape of armor.
What he also could do with his ice powers, in case he wanted to hide the fact that he had the power (and specialization) for ranged combat, the option to create any sort of melee weaponry was always a viable one he could take with naught but a passing thought. It wasn't like he wasn't an effective combatant, since the weapons were indeed his own constructs, they were part of him: no amount of extensive formal training was needed to use the weapon "naturally".
Nakano's a problem.
A short while ago, maybe a few days, Maxi didn't particularly remember, a Nakano drug runner had been spotted on his side of Kabuchiko, bringing troublesome cops to his very small area of control, scaring away his costumers with their presence, leading that day to be slightly less profitable than what was usual. A sleight against his finances was never acceptable so, having investigated the best, quickest way to Nakano in a way that it'd pass through his shop, he donned his armor and stood at the exit of the alleyway.
"STOP! You've violated the law! Pay the cou -- forfeit your drugs and leave Kabuchiko immediately!"
Maxi warned the cheeky runner who thought he'd have a smooth day that day, only to be met by a tall guy in an imposing armor, whose presence chilled the very air around him.
It got even worse when, as a show of power, Maximillian created a small frozen patch of ground right under his right hand, a large, two-handed broadsword slowly rising from it, only to be held with just one hand, a "show of strength", so to say.
Of course, his speech and the fact that whenever he used his powers, the air got even colder might alert someone who..
knows him.
