(A few days later, The Time Stilled World, Leo's POV)
It took a few days for Leo to fully adjust to the changes in his new body, as he spent that time familiarizing himself with the enhanced strength, smoother mana circulation, and greater stability that came with ascension, until eventually he reached a point where every movement felt natural again and his confidence in his combat ability returned completely.
Only after achieving that state did he set out to meet Moltherak, whereby this time he no longer needed a transport craft to get there, as unlike before, he no longer needed assistance for flying.
*Thud*
Leo landed on the ancient floating island without hesitation, touching down with a steady smile as he walked toward the central chamber where Moltherak's soul usually rested, his steps relaxed now that he no longer felt out of sync with his own power.
*Push*
