Although Yuan's entire presence had vanished—just like his screams—his aura returned moments later. It was faint at first, but it was clearly evolving, transforming into something otherworldly.
"He's… ascending?" Selena muttered in a dazed voice after realizing this.
Unlike Supreme Ruler Dena, who had wrapped herself in a cocoon, a thin veil of semi-transparent golden aura now covered Yuan's entire body like a shimmering blanket.
"Show me… what kind of being you'll become after this. Will you ascend… or will you perish at the final step?" Deemo muttered, staring at Yuan with unrestrained excitement, his body trembling nonstop like that of an eager child.
Deemo wanted to witness Yuan's ascension from beginning to end, but unfortunately, he had no choice but to divert his attention.
Mere days after Yuan began his ascension, Deemo sensed a familiar presence approaching his world. It was none other than Zaaran, who had finally arrived to fight Yuan.
