Layton found himself back in his room in Makarov hut, his last memory was the blurry state he was in when he had somehow incarnated into a giant mass of pure psionic energy preparing to face his opponent and then his memory was blank, He could only vaguely remember the wailing of the nascent world as it was unable to contain the energy generated during the mere clash of auras.
Although his memory during that period was kind of blurry but the profound sense of power and control he felt was deeply imprinted in his mind, Layton could feel that if he wanted to he could in a matter of weeks promote himself to at least the deity stage as long as energy was sufficient.
