Malachi clenched his fist tightly, and something felt slightly different.
For one, it felt like they had more strength now.
Malachi also felt his skin had become thicker, but he couldn't be sure of that as there was no visible change.
The next thing Malachi then tested was his ability.
Like how it felt when he was testing his body for any physical improvement, when Malachi activated his ability, he felt different, but since nothing was visible, it felt like his mind was playing tricks on him.
After this, Malachi then turned to the crystal heart even though its current appearance made it that it couldn't be called that again.
So it turned to this when it's exhausted, huh? Malachi thought as he turned his attention to the object in his hand: the remnant of the crystal heart after exhausting the red gas stored within.
