Alm and Bruno absorbed all those memories in less than three seconds. Instantly, they understood with surprise what Kronde had done.
A soul was constantly connected to the heavenly laws, and the two gates he created represented that link. It was a triple connection between the physical body, the soul, and the heavenly laws.
Kronde used this connection to refine his body twice, using extra energy flowing from the heavenly laws. At that moment, Alm and Bruno realized, albeit late, why their celestial annihilation had become absurdly powerful in such a short time, to the point of causing despair and forcing them to come up with an even crazier solution to survive.
The gates of life and death, and the energy that flowed when opening them and nourishing his body, were actually a direct theft from the heavenly laws. 'I gotta admit, I like that Fiendgod's style,' they said with a slight smile.
