While Evan's body slowly healed and Reykar tried to absorb as much of the strange energy as possible, Evan looked at his "Warp," puzzled.
"Hmm, it's still crimson, but something has definitely changed. The color itself is clearer. It's as if all the dirt and impurities have disappeared from the Warp, like some precious metal. It's affected the speed of "Creation," I can feel it."
Evan decided that he would get right down to "Creation" as soon as he was healed. But, besides the color of his "Warp," there was something else Evan didn't understand. He couldn't pinpoint the exact cause of his healing.
<I died because I cast a spell that amazingly combined demonic and divine energies. My body couldn't take the strain, and my heart burst. But, it's different now, I don't feel any struggle between the two energies. They coexist peacefully, but this is simply impossible.>
<Moreover, I think I was able to heal because certain conditions were fulfilled. The healing process began only after the three drops became one and completely covered the "Warp." The cleansing cured me of my "Warp," but that is only the result, not the cause.>
<My "Warp" was cleansed, and I wasn't able to come back to life because I died, that's for sure. Otherwise, mages would be immortal, or some of them would be resurrected time after time. The reason is different, but what is it...?>
As Evan's body healed, he tried to figure out what caused the drops to appear and the subsequent healing of his body.
<Maybe I should start over. The cause of my death was divine and demonic energy, and two of the three drops were the embodiment of those energies. If I'm right, that was one of the conditions for cleansing the Warp and healing the mortal wound.>
<Then, a purple drop joined the gray and white drop. It represented me, and only then could the Warp be cleansed. Hmmm... does that mean I had to die by the two incompatible energies to purify "Warp"? After I died, I combined them with my own, which led to the cleansing of "Warp" and the subsequent healing... how complicated is that?>
Evan decided that his theory was very similar to the truth. If he was right, and Evan was sure he was, he wouldn't be able to resurrect himself that way again. It was an isolated incident that would never happen again.
But, there was one point Evan wasn't sure about. He didn't know if it was necessary to die to clear "Warp."
<There were two possibilities, either in my case, death was one of the conditions for starting and successfully completing the whole process, or all mages needed to die, but that was unlikely.>
Evan had already concluded that combining demonic, divine, and his own energies was the main condition for clearing Warp. But, it was only possible because Evan died under certain conditions.
Moreover, in favor of his theory was the release of energy from his body, as if a "Splash" was now taking place. It was a clear indication that his strange energy influenced the Creation of the purple drop. She was the third variable in this confrontation that changed everything.
Evan thought so seriously about this topic because he was curious to know how it all worked. He wanted to try a similar thing with Malespera, but it was impossible. Evan believed that each mage had his own conditions for clearing "Warp." If he didn't know them, he couldn't do anything.
Evan was just lucky that "Lucifer's Shackles" turned out to be such a strange spell.
<If every mage has a different set of conditions, mine were clearly one of the toughest. Heck, I really needed to die, too, under such unusual conditions. I would have noticed the presence of divine or demonic energy in any other spell, but not in this one. In other words, there was no other way for me to clear my "Warp".>
For the next few hours, Evan continued to think about what had just happened. Regeneration was very long, as the wound was severe. Evan was left without a heart, and creating a heart from nothing was not easy and not a quick task.
Evan hadn't come to any new conclusions. He had already decided that both his death and the different kinds of energy were among his conditions. He also didn't overthink about the benefits of a purified "Warp." Evan understood that this was a very good thing, and he had moved on to a new stage. Now he would be able to accumulate mana even faster.
Maybe the purified "Warp" had some other advantages, but Evan could only find out about them during "Creation."
Evan thought about the spell that made all this happen.
<This spell has both demonic and divine energy. I want to know who created it, or who Lucifer is. If he has two of these energies at once, he must be both a demon and an angel at the same time... I hope "Demonic Tree" knows something about that.>
Evan didn't know of any other organization that had any information about demons in this world. He had already learned that the "Demonic Tree" didn't use 72 Demons spells, but that only meant they knew of any other demons. Naturally, Evan was extremely interested in learning more about it.
"Yeah, I just wanted to unlock the last chain and get a powerful spell, and it ended up turning out like this. Although, I have to admit that I got something incredible, even though I didn't expect it myself."
At that moment, Evan remembered that a second Pillar had appeared next to the black lion. He wondered how many chains were on it.
Evan moved into the dark space and quickly counted the total number of chains.
"Still the same, 101 chains, but something tells me it's going to be a lot harder to unlock them. There's a very oppressive and threatening aura coming from this Pillar, and there's more power behind it."
Evan hadn't forgotten about the golden Pillar next to the huge rat. The number of chains was the same on all the Pillars.
"Okay, I have to get out of here. This has been an unforgettable adventure." Evan muttered and returned to the real world.
By that time, his wound had completely healed. His new heart was no different from his old one.
Crunch.
Evan got up and stretched. It didn't feel enjoyable, but it was much better than dying.
<Reykar absorbed all the energy coming from me, and it looks like he made a breakthrough. He was now equal in power to a "One-Pointed Star" mage with one flame. Not bad, not bad at all.>
Evan wanted to do "Creation," but he lost the urge. He wanted to get some rest and come to his senses. Somehow he did die today, but there was something he wanted to check out.
Evan's Warp spun, and he cast "Lucifer's Shackles." Evan was not afraid that he would die again. The two energies had already been in his body for a long time and, in some unknown way, had learned to coexist with each other.
Stripe tattoos spread across his arms, and then Evan felt one of the benefits of the purified "Warp."
"Understandably, the quality of mana in my Warp has increased markedly. Now all my spells are a little stronger, I suppose the effect will only increase in the future."
Whooosh.
Evan's spatial ring glowed, and a scythe appeared in his hands.. He wanted to test how "Lucifer's Shackles" would work with weapons.
