Due to Arthur's transformation, the artifact that he wore on his face to change his appearance was blasted off by the chaos essence energy.
At this point, his skin was no longer peeling and neither was his blood burning.
Arthur lay bare on the bed while panting heavily.
"Hah..."
His chest went up and down as he took deep breaths continuously. This was the first time he had experienced such a painful transformation.
In his past life, he did not have any special bloodline or physique, and he only reached his previous level of power by sheer willpower and perseverance.
*Ba-dum!*
"Huh, it isn't over?"
*Badum!*
The sound of his heartbeat increased again and so did its frequency.
Suddenly, a strange power flowed from the heart into his soul. Arthur braced himself for pain but felt nothing.
To his surprise, he discovered that something was awakening from within his soul.
Something that has been dormant for a long time.
