Chapter 4282: Monster Half (Part 2)

"I have no idea if it will happen right now or if it will take some more time, but if I’m right, the moment the obstructions are gone, my entire life force will become stronger. Until this moment, the Warg aspect weighed me down and halted my evolution.

"My Eldritch and Fylgja side can’t develop further without crushing the Warg under their might, so fixing the Warg side will be enough to improve my life force as a whole."

The Suneater donned the Skull and the Maw of Bytra as he entered the madness and sealed its Adamant lid.

’Now watch.’ He pushed the button that filled the gene-tank with nutrient liquid and switched to the mind link.

As soon as no air was left and he received a steady flow of world energy and vitality from his allies, Tezka began his work.

’As you can see, time and experiments have brought my Warg aspect above the mere flame of a rank 1, but it’s nowhere close to the size and power of the star of a rank 2. Moreover, the color and density of the Warg’s flame change constantly due to its Fallen state.

’So far, the best it could do was to use the energy scattered by the elemental stars to keep its shape and orbit stable, but that’s it. This is where I’m going to start the procedure.’

The Suneater used his tier five Body Sculpting spell, Starsight, to observe his own life force while another spell, Life Well, to alter it. A strand of powerful mana enveloped the comet, forming several protective layers around it.

Life Well seemed to double the comet’s size, but it was just the spell reaching and surpassing the might of the Warg aspect. When that happened, Tezka pulled at Life Well and forced the comet to alter its course.

The Suneater brought the Warg aspect near the emerald dwarf first, placing the comet in a stable orbit. The layer of Life Well opened on the dark side of the comet, so that the raw Spirit Magic coming from the front was blocked by the spell.

It allowed Tezka to control the flow of the Spirit element that entered the Warg aspect and monitor the changes it underwent. As soon as the comet showed signs of instability, Tezka pulled it out of orbit and moved it to the light star.

Here, he repeated the procedure, opening an even smaller fissure in Life Well since the light element released by the light star was several orders of magnitude greater. The comet stabilized, yet soon became unstable again.

At that point, Tezka moved it into orbit around the next star, the fire elemental star.

’You see, our monster life force is compatible with our original life forces, or we would have never come back to life.’ Tezka explained as he moved the comet to the water star. ’Yet it’s also Fallen and weak.

’Our other aspects are so much stronger that direct contact would end in the annihilation of our monster side. Yet the innate instability from its Fallen state prevents it from growing without external intervention.

’It’s the reason our life forces repel each other instead of growing closer over time.’

’He’s right!’ Bytra’s eyes widened in understanding. ’Our original, Eldritch, and monster aspects want to survive, so they limit the interactions between them to remain stable. Yet if they don’t interact, they can’t adapt to each other. It’s a paradox!’

’Correct, but only if you leave their condition as it is.’ The Suneater inwardly nodded. ’What I’m doing is to expose my Warg aspect to controlled amounts of energy from my Fylgja aspect to stimulate its development.’ 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

’Yet that’s not enough.’ He said, grunting in pain and effort. ’Without darkness, it’s only a matter of time before the unbridled vitality of a monster will turn against itself.

’Our Eldritch aspect is so strong that it keeps the monster aspect’s rampant life force stable even from a great distance, yet close interaction is necessary if I want the Warg side to become capable of harnessing the power of Chaos.’
