Chapter 13: Immortal Drakas
Before the two engaged in their battle, Elias quietly left the field and hid behind a wall within the rubble, a safe distance away but close enough to observe their fight. He didn’t want to miss such a rare opportunity to study how powers worked in Mystral.
Even he was surprised by Drakas’s sudden transformation. He initially planned for the female warrior to seize the opportunity during Drakas’s mental breakdown to end him, but his plans failed when he witnessed Drakas resurrect in a different form immediately after being slain.
The power to regenerate was not unheard of in the Quantum Multiverse, but Drakas didn’t seem to have regenerated. Instead, he appeared to have become something other than human.
From Elias’s observations, Drakas had become significantly stronger compared to before. This baffled him greatly as it defied logic, unless that was causality at play.
Maybe the act of killing him was the cause, and the effect was the transformation?
Briefly pondering to himself, Elias felt that this conjecture might be the only plausible explanation.
What a miraculous world.
That was the perfect way to describe his current perception of Mystral. Being able to defy death was already something Elias found quite intriguing. Earlier, he speculated that resurrection was possible in Mystral, considering the World Overseer of Mystral didn’t take action against him despite his defiance of death.
Witnessing Drakas’s transformation after death and sudden increase in strength proved his conjecture might not be far from the truth. Elias channeled a bit of energy into his eyes, activating his Quantum Sight to observe Drakas’s condition.
