Ark's body began to radiate an intense golden glow, his aura growing more intense with every passing second.
From his skull, a pair of white horns curved upward, gleaming under the moonlight. His entire body was encased in what seemed to be a blend of white and golden scales, each scale interlocking with the others, giving the appearance of a well-crafted suit of armor that melded perfectly with his body.
Suddenly, a golden tail covered in scales emerged from his lower back, swaying as his scales glinted in the moonlight.
He clenched his fists, feeling his mana coursing through his veins.
"Because soon..."
"I'll be very busy."
Chrono Nexus' gaze lingered on him for a moment, her expression a touch of curiosity and awe.
"Are you planning to save the elves, then?"
Ark shook his head as he spoke, his voice sounding deeper as his words seemed to vibrate the air around him.
