Chapter 23: Don’t leave me
Johan's heart trembled, 'This is just 4%!? He could just toy with Kirin like this? And you're saying we should let this thing be fully reborn and then kill it?'
He never felt the true horror of this creature... maybe because he was always with the plot-armored main characters.
And it was just him clicking the X button, making the rational choices.
Now wasn't the same—the soul-shattering pressure, watching his sister lying in her blood, the fatherly figure just a dry husk of flesh left at an altar.
He took a deep breath. If he hadn't reached in time and healed them, they would've all been dead.
"Well, the real body—the Dark God Tree—will keep regenerating infinitely. If you can't wipe it down to atomic levels in a single attack, you can't kill it... that human may feel immortal, but he is still a human—not the real mythical form like the tree." Melodis explained calmly.
Johan walked closer to Sebastian, who instantly adopted a grateful expression. He also wanted to live a bit longer.
"Is the seal ready?" Johan asked hastily, keeping a close eye on the now silent man on the dirt, enduring the pain.
"It will take a few more minutes... but Master, should we not just use a normal gravitational seal? Is a seal that constantly evolves and adapts to its captive really necessary?" Sebastian asked awkwardly, staring straight into Johan's eyes.
"Do it in two! I have a plan." Johan replied calmly, a frown appearing as the man on the ground grew quieter—not even a whimper escaping as his flesh and bones burned, then slowly regenerated molecule by molecule.
This process must be extremely painful.
