It wasn't that Zarek didn't consider that Mirabella wouldn't notice him, but he thought that only after devouring the divine energy would she be alerted.
But it seems that was not the case; instead, the moment Zarek returned Alice to her true form of divine energy, she was already alerted.
This made many of his plans fail, but this had very little consequence to him.
Because Zarek was essentially immortal already, he could adapt to the divine energy, and if he instantly died, he could always turn back his body's time and recover again.
So he didn't even have to worry about instant death.
As Zarek shot through the tunnel and devoured the Divine Energy in a single gulp, for a moment, he didn't feel a single change inside him.
"Hmm?"
Just then, Zarek's entire body began emitting a bright golden light, his entire body shone in it, even coming through his eye sockets, and mouth, and veins bulged throughout his body like coiled snakes.
