The numerous well-publicised fights between Shen Yuan and the Cardinals made his powers famous.
A flame that could instantly turn things to ashes? A fire that touches the very soul of a being? If a fire possesses all these traits, then it stands to reason that people wouldn't want to mess with the only person who controls it.

Bruno Rivera also recognises the power of the S-class omega. If Shen Yuan's fire can burn people's souls, then it is not a stretch to say that he can also erase an S-class awakener's mental control.
Bruno Rivera believes that Shen Yuan is the kryptonite of his mind control ability.

He investigated Shen Yuan's relationship with other people, planned a roundabout and elaborate way of effectively stopping Shen Yuan from going active tonight.
