«So that's why you're hunting down the two hybrids—to take over their bodies,» Shin says.
He takes advantage of that moment to catch his breath and regain his strength.
The emerald flames that make up Velshekar's body flicker like a candle's flame.
They seem insubstantial.
Now, Shin fully understands the situation.
It's a wandering spirit—the soul of a demon so powerful it can remain alive even after death.
But to do that, it needs to possess a body strong enough to endure its power.
Without a body, a spirit dissolves quickly.
Driven by desperation, Velshekar charges at Shin.
It assumes the form of that same huge, flaming serpent he used before and it rushes him with the same strength and speed.
A speed greater than Shin's.
No longer confined to a physical vessel, the spirit can fully manifest its strength.
And now, Shin's focus and guard are higher than ever.
