-A little while ago-
Podas had planned everything to the point that he had to invest about half of the Eclipse's Order's savings just to complete the ultimate piece!
Naturally, Podas knew that the hardest part in his plan was to assimilate all that End Stage of Rank-10 with himself. He had set-up one of the most expensive materials in their treasury just to create a mechanism that would not destroy his body while absorbing the Monster.
Everything was working fine until the point when Podas accidentally touched the pitch-black eerie symbols on Ozul's leg inside the Monster.
The process was working perfectly fine up to that point. Podas had calculated everything in his plan—The plan that he had created decades ago! And with trial and error, he had been improving bits and pieces of it.
