"It's so good to be back." Michael calmly cracked his neck and said. His voice carried the weight of his newly acquired power, resonating with the authority of a level 3 Greater God. As he took in his surroundings, his gaze fell upon the Minotaur, now sleeping deeply from the exhaustion of absorbing a goddess's soul.
He then turned his attention to the mummified remains of Marli's body and chuckled, a dark amusement in his tone.
"I regret not killing her with my own hands," he mused, his regret laced with a hint of satisfaction at her demise.
