A wide smile had found its way to Malakai's face.
The things he'd just discovered were simply far too great.
First was Renlo's newly acquired power. Though it was truly a shame that he'd been tortured and had his limbs replaced, Malakai had decided to see things from a different perspective, the positive side, as many would call it.
Before the incident at Sylvastein, Renlo had formed a total of three nodes and was on the way to forming the fourth.
He'd formed them in his stomach, heart, and brain. Despite the brutal experiment he went through, all of these nodes were still intact, since he hadn't formed any in his limbs anyway.
Still, this wasn't Malakai's current focus. In the spar they had just fought, Renlo had moved at a speed and power that dwarfed anything he should have been capable of achieving.
It was as though Renlo had created nodes in his limbs, when he hadn't.
