While tightly holding the Orb of Life, Kyle felt its energy coursing through his body.
It was invigorating him, and slowly healing its wounds, which included making up for the blood loss.
This was great, and something the Orb of Life did passively, without him requesting it to do anything actively.
Because the pain around his neck disappeared, and the blood loss didn't harm him in any way, Kyle could finally pay attention to the changes in his body.
By liquefying the first drop of mana, he entered the Vitae stage after breaking through the shackles of the Fortification stage.
Under normal circumstances, he should have reached the Vitae stage a few months ago when Arashi had evolved.
It was around the same time that accelerated his energy absorption and conversion speed.
However, too many things had happened since then, and Kyle was already happy that he was alive.
