During Rugi's moments of triumph Torino had encountered a Kiren.
A single Kiren.
"Tell me Human what came of the other Kiren, my people" Aro questioned not knowing that he was on a planet full of monsters.
Refusing to answer Torino stood unflinching in the face of almost certain death.
In the absence of an answer Aro shifted his body into descension.
And in reaction Torino the master of Earth spawned two balls of Zeon energy from each palm.
Leaving nothing to chance Torino tossed one of the balls straight past Aro.
And now with the Kiren distracted Torino drilled the remaining ball deep into Aro's stomach.
But with barely any emotion Aro swung his body to face the Human, tearing at the fabric of Torino's coat.
Swinging his arm backwards Aro, sling shotting his palm into Torino's skull.
Using the force of the impact Aro released his grip of the Human, allowing him to crash into the wasteland.
Unable to stand and his vision blurred Torino was left at Aro's mercy.
With unwavering certainty in his victory Aro rallied his strength into one final attack.
But fate had chosen a side.
The fruits of Rugi's experiments revealed themselves as Hati threw a disc made of Zeon energy distracting the Kiren.
Just in time for Rugi to save the Humans, his experiments.
Hours passed, allowing for Torino's injuries to have been completely healed.
Thanks to Rugi of course.
Unaware of Torino regaining consciousness Rugi continued to dissect his greatest subject yet, Aro.
Torino leapt up from his own bench, feeling his youth return to him, only to feel a shock in his chest.
The questions spiralling inside Torino's mind managed to escape into the room, allowing for Rugi to become aware of his awakening.
And as Torino's screams continued Hati joined in but with a cheer as he yelled "Rugi fixed me!".
Torino's rage slowly became guilt at hearing Hati's joy knowing it originated from selfishness.
Standing up with his new found youth Torino looked Rugi in the eye.
"Leave now you have taken a student into this hell and experimented on him as if he were a piece of meat, I can not forgive such an act so leave before I force you too Zeon".
Without a shred of remorse Rugi proposes an offer to the lowly Human, an offer in which Rugi had already decided was to be accepted.
"I already expect the Kiren warrior to die, so I've decided to perform two final experiments which will result in death, that is if we go on the results of the previous subjects".
Torino stood silent uncertain on how to make good on his threat.
But Rugi continued his tone ever so deceitful.
"First we shall remove half of his skeleton replacing it with a meteorite version and second I shall install the most basic of all energy marks, connecting each muscle in his body this time, after I have completed this then and only then will I make my leave of Earth".
Thankful for the opportunity to spare himself Torino takes a calmer stance, readying himself to leave alongside Hati.
But in one last burst of rage Torino muttered "do what you will with the Kiren but stay away from my students you Demon".
Paying no attention to Torino's rage Rugi spoke ever so calmly in his response "you haven't seen the real Demons if you had you wouldn't be comparing my mere strength to their immeasurable power".
"And as for your students, I only fixed the boy, giving him a power to further expand his ability".
In shock of hearing of actual Demons Torino hurried up the tired basement steps.
Unable to contain his enjoyment Rugi's laughed hysterically, waking his latest victim.
But without a care for his state Rugi tore into Aro's flesh, tossing it to the ground.
Rugi overwhelmed with passion began to infuse divine energy into his arm, spawning the release divine blade.
In which the Zeon began to cut Aro's skeleton in half.
Aro's screams echoing throughout the temple.
Whilst his blood splattered against the walls, his organs piling on top of his back.
And finally his flesh bubbling as his guts and heart laid on top of each other.
Discarding of the severed skeleton Rugi continued to work on Aro, welding a new meteorite skeleton to the remaining bone inside Aro's body.
Using his own life span Rugi replaced Aro's damaged flesh, organs and everything else that was damaged.
Moving swiftly past the success of the first enhancement Rugi placed his palm over the Kiren's chest, installing the energy mark.
Now using fusion energy Rugi wired all of Aro's muscles together, connecting them to the mark recently placed on his chest.
Accomplishment overwhelming the Zeon gave chance to failure.
As Aro had survived the experiment in which he awoke.
Taking the opportunity Aro smashed his restraints but to the Zeon's luck Aro collapsed.
And in that very moment Rugi had realised the survivor count had been increased from zero to one, Rugi had finally accomplished and perfected the enhancements he had wished to use the Human race for.
Abandoning his subject Rugi exited this chapter, leaving Torino to deal with Aro.
