1010 Chapter 1010: Change to perfection
The Titan King's body was devoured by the darkness. His vision grew weaker, as he felt the surroundings change, as if his body had reached an unknown space.
He couldn't feel anything anymore. Even his last thought was only about regret. He didn't have regret that he was dead.
The only regret he had was that he was killed by a person that should have been like an ant in front of him. He felt disgusted at himself for losing his battle, even as the abyss slowly devoured his body, mind and soul.
Tired, Karyk sat on the ground, appearing like a tiny speck of dust in the grand room. The Titan King was stronger than his expectations, but in the end, it truly workedout.
He had sent the Titan King to his abyss. All that was left was for him to get devoured completely. He was looking forward to the memories of the Titan King that had lived the longest in this place.
More than that, he was looking forward to the undead he could make once the Titan King was completely devoured.
As he sat on the ground, the black markings on his body had slowly come to life. The marks became deeper, making it appear as if a magic circuit was spreading all over his body.
The more the Titan King's devouring progressed, the more he felt like he was getting stronger. Something was clearly changing in his body, and at the moment, he couldn't completely understand that either.
He just looked at his hands, that was covered in the black marks that looked like it was made from abyss
To check something, he created an aura blade and sliced his skin a little.Drops of blood trickled out of the wound before his body healed itself right in front of his eyes. His healing had already gotten stronger, and he hadn't even finished completely devouring the Titan King yet.
More than that, he noticed the changes in his blood. The moment he awakened to his past, he had noticed that the color of his blood had changed into the deep black of the abyss.
Now that he had devoured almost all the titans, he felt some changes to his blood. There were a few traces of gold in his black blood, akin to stars shining in the dark space of the otherworld.
He looked at the blood drop, which slowly turned into specks of light after being exposed to the surroundings for some time.
Strangely enough, those specks of lights didn't disperse. Instead, they were absorbed
back into his body on their own. Once the specks of light entered his body, they turned back into the blood that was flowing through his veins.
The blood that he shed was now able to return to his body on its own. The blood didn't just return, but it also made him recover faster.
"How interesting," Karyk held the aura blade firmly. To test the extent and speed of his healing, he didn't just stop at a wound.
He brought the aura blade down, slicing his left arm entirely from the shoulder. The pain was bearable for him, as he watched his left arm fall on the ground.
The same black blood with golden specks splattered all around his sliced arm while his clothes were stained in blood.
As if to his own surprise, he noticed that his arm hadn't healed from the root. Instead his sliced arm turned into specks of darkness that flew to his shoulder, completing his arm again.
The blood that had stained his blood was also absorbed by his body. Even with naked eyes, he could see how incredible this was. His body was healed as if nothing had happened, and it didn't even take him a minute.
He was like the Undeads who could heal themselves as long as they weren't completely destroyed. If anything, he was even more special than that.
"This is truly incredible..." Karyk watched in disbelief as the changes within his body were only increasing.
He could also feel another change. He observed his body more carefully, realizing that his blood was behaving differently in more ways than one.
Instead of flowing through his veins in ways that a human's blood would, his blood was taking a different route. It was as if his blood was trailing the path of the black markings on his skin like they were his new veins.
Although so much appeared to have changed inside his body, he still didn't feel uncomfortable. Instead, he felt as if he was more comfortable like this was how it was supposed to be in the first place.
The abyss had taken a human form, but it wasn't the perfect form. It relied on civilization to create a human form as it was born as Karyk. It also used the rough understanding of the ones it had devoured while coming to life.
At that point, it was more like being born as a human. But as he devoured more and more people, his body was adapting and changing from within, trying to reach the perfect form for Karyk.
It became even better when he devoured the Titan King, as the information gained from the Titan King's anatomy was unique in more ways than one.
Karyk hadn't even recovered the memories of the Titan King, but he still felt like he could change his body according to the information he had gathered.
His body was like the mold of the darkness within him. And with proper knowledge,
this mold could adopt as per his wills.
He wondered if he should test it to see if he could actually change his body into a titan and back to normal. For now, he felt that it was possible.
He was also curious to try it right now, but he controlled his urges. He waited for the devouring of the Titan King to finish, which took longer than ordinary Titans.
It wasn't surprising as the Titan King was an existence in a different league than
ordinary Titans.
While Karyk was waiting, he suddenly felt something was wrong. His connection with the Undeads that he sent to the Prayer Room was suddenly cut.
