After killing all the Grit Eaters that craved for his death, Khal decided to continue his way toward the north as he planned in the beginning.
On his way, Rubie was still angry with him, but until they found out something rather interesting. On their way, they met a few First Stage Beasts akin to scorpions and as an atonement for what he did, Khal let Rubie kill and consume their Essence.
However, what neither he nor Rubie would have thought that the moment the Beasts were killed, no matter if Khal was a meter or a mile away, the Essence would always track him and melt into his body automatically!
Rubie even wanted to fly before the Artificial Beast Essence to make it melt into her body, but strangely as though it was a non-existent material it drifted right through her body and melted into Khal's body!
But luckily, not only they were the only ones stupified by this weird change of events but almost every spectator that watched this spectacle!
