My heart was pounding, the power radiating from me overwhelming. My soul energy had drastically increased, yet my stats remained the same. Still, I knew one thing with absolute certainty—if I faced the Fallen King now, I could easily kill him in just a few exchanges.
My luck is shining brightly in this world. I feel unbeatable. Nothing will ever stop me!
I wanted to scream, to let it all out, but something deep within me held me back. Then, the memory of Malrang fighting alone snapped me back to reality.
As if it were second nature, I circulated my soul energy and returned to my body, finding myself once again seated on Malrang's back.
"Malrang!" I shouted, my heart sinking at the sight of her bleeding body.
"I'm okay… Are you done—? Who are you!?"
She nearly threw me off as she froze mid-run, her confusion clear.
