With the smoke and dust settling, Ash's eyes locked onto the monstrous form before him.
"Hmph, I guess that won't be enough to defeat you, will it?" he snarled, a hint of amusement dancing in his skeletal grin.
The creature's presence, now fully visible under the cave's eerie lighting, revealed a figure that could only be described as an abomination: humanoid in shape, yet far larger and more toned than any human being.
As Ash took in the sight of the hellish creature, he noticed a most disturbing phenomenon.
From the very spot where the head had been severed, the creature's flesh began to bubble and contort, almost like molten lava.
The grotesque transformation seemed to be a form of regeneration, as the creature's neck area began to bubble and replicate itself, slowly but surely, recreating the head that had been lost.
As the creature's head reformed, Thanatos let out a low, mirthless chuckle.
I'm terrible at coming up with names, but yeah let me know your thoughts on his new modification of his Hellflare, the hell blade and the whole cult of jhr... whatever
