Three days after the successful core conversion, Luthra sat in his office reviewing reports from the settlement while simultaneously feeling the new hybrid core pulsing inside him.
The conversion had worked, the positive and negative energies were now merged into a single unified whole, but Lilith had warned him that he needed to be careful about how he used it until his body fully adapted.
[Status update: adaptation to hybrid core is progressing at 73%, you should reach full integration within approximately one week, until then, avoid pushing your limits or you risk destabilizing the merge.]
'Understood, so light training only for now.'
[Correct, treat this week as recovery time, your body is still adjusting to fundamentally different energy patterns.]
Misha walked in carrying her usual stack of paperwork. "You look better, less like you're about to collapse and more like a functional human being."
"Thanks, I think, what's the situation with the settlement?"
