By now, Angel had come to understand the terror of that energy.
His body repeatedly collapsed, and each time Angel felt that he could no longer be saved, yet that energy forcefully pulled him back from death's abyss.
It happened countless times.
Angel was both surprised by the horror of this new drop of blood, and shocked by the energy contained within his body.
It was as if two giants, far surpassing Angel's own power levels, were initiating a world-shaking battle within his own body.
After each collapse, immediate repair followed, and this cycle repeated many times.
And with each one, Angel felt as if he were enduring the Earthly torture once described by Jon—an execution by slicing.
His flesh was being carved away, slice by slice.
After the slicing, came the itchy sensation of energy repairing. Once repaired, the slicing would continue.
