Chapter 9: Forging
It was nighttime.
After having a deep discussion about how Rashin was able to kill a fallen one, Eri finally surrendered to her tiredness and fell asleep.
Meanwhile, Rashin, who still didn't understand the new power he had gained, remained outside, keeping watch just in case another fallen one showed up.
Lying on the ground right in front of him was the corpse of the fallen one he had killed.
While it was true Hakias could not be killed or damaged, there were still some exceptions to the game.
For starters, there had been instances when a Hakia lost its ability to regenerate for a limited time. This was something the king of the humans had discovered.
Stabbing the heart of the monster would cause it to lose its regenerative abilities temporarily. In this moment, humans would damage it as many times as they could, eventually leaving it in a state where it couldn't move.
Killing it.
But even then, the monster's body would be absorbed into the surroundings, only to be reborn again.
And yet, the Hakia Rashin had killed didn't seem to be going anywhere.
Rashin sighed, his gaze focused on the blue aura leaking from his body.
