The Essence of Defense
The Essence of Defense is a named unlockable obtained by finding and destroying every Mr. Everywhere statue, regardless of difficulty.
How it works
The unlock guide states that finding and destroying every Mr. Everywhere statue unlocks The Essence of Defense and that the difficulty does not matter. The source does not describe the item’s effect or specify whether its use is limited to a particular run. The general gameplay passage about bonus items does not identify this item’s behavior.
