Azrail pushed aside the distractions, his mind functioning like a perfectly optimised multi-threaded processor thanks to [Mind Split]. One thread maintained a constant, silent coordination with Nayan inside the Realm Scrapper.
Nayan, the Truth Seeker scientist now bound to him through the Promise Within Death, was already proving his worth. Inside the Realm Scrapper's fractured interior, he moved through collapsed dimensions like a scavenger-god, repurposing annihilated laws and shattered constants into usable components. Cosmic formation arrays flickered to life under his direction, each layer designed not merely for defence, but for selective annihilation. Intrusion would not be repelled. It would be erased, catalogued, and recycled.
Azrail approved silently. Intent-based detection was expensive. It was also priceless.
His thoughts drifted, unbidden, toward Yurou and Lysandra.
