Kiba might be ready to die, but Hyperion has no wish of engaging in mutual destruction. He has plans he has to complete and they couldn't be discarded due to some human!
Swoosh~!
Light energy surrounded him and he disappeared in a series of blurs. When he appeared, he was a few kilometers away.
"I truly underestimated you, kid!" Hyperion remarked.
"Say something you haven't said before," Kiba lowered the lightning. "Or has the long slumber turned you completely stupid?"
The claw-marks on his back disappeared and the wounds healed. The acidic power from the claw eradicated as well.
"You are right," Hyperion actually nodded. "The long slumber and awakening in a new world have made me slow, and even a bit stupid."
As he said this, boundless energy surged out of him. Unlike before, this energy contained traces of power Cosmic!
Prevented a tragedy...right.
