Sylas landed on the ground, a frown on his face.
Gogo hardly had a place on his body where he wasn't bleeding. Though his aura was still vigorous, it was clear that he had suffered a great deal.
While Sylas had had an idea that this would happen, he hadn't believed that it would be to this extent. It had to be remembered just how powerful Gogo was now.
But then again… Sylas had also ordered Gogo to not use his King Beast abilities. He had thought that Gogo's stats alone would be enough to allow him to hold off, but clearly he had still miscalculated.
The young prince hadn't even been Level 50 yet. Judging by the reaction of the Runes around him, and the various suppressions he faced, he wasn't even Level 40 yet either.
Sylas hadn't even bothered to try and scan him. Someone with so many treasures on him certainly had something to protect his name and stats. It was the same reason he didn't even try to take the old man's Genes.
But… he had observed the Unique Genes. As for what he found from them, it was nothing but oddities. freēwēbnovel.com
As far as he could tell the young prince and the old man were both human. There was potential that they were in disguise given how secretive they were being, but the old man also hadn't exposed himself after death either.
Of course, Sylas wasn't knowledgeable enough to say with certainty that that was impossible. But it at least made it less likely.
"Go rest." Sylas said calmly.
From his Insight, he could tell that Gogo's injuries were just surface level. Given the current strength of the Hibernation Realm, it would only take a few minutes at most for him to be back up to full strength, and even that was an exaggeration of the time needed.
'How many unknown powers like that are there in the galaxy?'
Most Summonings succeeded by going under the radar. Finding worlds undergoing them was incredibly difficult.
What was even more difficult was wrapping your head around the sheer vastness of a galaxy in the first place, let alone a cluster of them, or the universe itself.
Earth was already so large Sylas needed a special treasure just to get around it in a timely fashion, and that was with his current strength.
Who knew how many worlds there were in the Skai 11331 Galaxy alone?
Earth only felt so great because they had somehow been found and targeted. But were they truly so special?
And how much larger were the Thryskai or even just the Florineth by comparison? Just how powerful did they need to be to sit atop something as vast as the galaxy? And how much greater were the Golden Grove than them?
The thought just felt… overwhelming.
For the first time, Sylas was seeing the scope of the universe not through the tiny lens of what was thrown at him every day, but instead through what it truly was…
An impossible vastness.
The young prince probably had no idea that the most crushing loss of his own life would carry with it the same shocking upheaval in the mind of the man he wanted to surpass so much.
Sylas clenched his fists for a moment and then released.
