BXBX NOVEL Chapter 85 Demonic Energy?!?!
"In theory, yes," Aria said as tendrils or waters slowly began to move around Kye. "But Kye isn\'t your normal being. So it\'s better to be safe than sorry."
And just as she said that Kye received his system\'s notification.

The heavenly disguise appeared in front of him out of nowhere, making Aria and Ras wary. However, when they saw that it was just a strange-looking gum, their wariness dyed down a little. Though, they still didn\'t understand how something could appear out of thin air, especially since Kye didn\'t have a personal space where he could store things.
But their eyes couldn\'t examine the strange gum for too long because their attention got drawn elsewhere.
"Arggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!" Kye screamed at the top of his lungs, sending a shiver down Aria\'s and Ras\' spine. They didn\'t expect such a thing to happen since he was perfectly alright still a moment ago.
But things didn\'t end here.
The tendrils of water that were made by Aria tried to enter contact with Kye\'s body to alleviate his pain. However, exactly like last time when she was trying to help him with his wings, Kye\'s energy blow them away.
"Again?!"
"What do you mean by again?"
"His energy doesn\'t allow any type of interference, be it friendly or foes."
Ras made a green fire appear on top of his right hand to see if what Aria was saying was true. A Pheonix could be reborn from its ashes, so they had an exceptional regenerative ability, so surely he would be able to help Aria since the latter wasn\'t specialized in this field.
And Ras was very confident as well because his supporting abilities always work. But everything had to have a beginning sooner or later.
The green flame enveloped Kye\'s body, only to be repelled by even more force than Aria\'s tendrils of water. It shocked him to no end, only to be drawn back to reality because of Kye\'s continuous scream.
"Why? Why does my flame didn\'t work?" He asked between two of his scream.
"As I said earlier, Kye isn\'t your typical being," Aria answered with a lot of worries. Kye was quickly destroying his vocal cords with how much he was screaming in pain right now. "It seems that every time he will change, he had to suffer a lot of pain-..." Aria didn\'t manage to finish because what she saw made her suck a cold breath.
Kye began to cough inscrutably, with every time a mouthful of blood escaping from it. But it wasn\'t the end. Blood came out from all his orifices. His eyes, ears, nose, mouth, and even his rear. And strangely enough, the blood that was coming out was boiling. The little pool of blood that was forming under him kept bulbing because of how hot his blood was right now.
Suddenly, Kye spits another mouthful of blood. But unlike earlier, there was much more blood. Even what looks like some organs and muscles.
"Is he losing his life?" Ras asked, worrying a lot for Kye. Blood was already a lot, but if other things were necessary for his body to work that were spit out, then things didn\'t bode well.
"No, take a look inside of his body," She said as Kye began vomiting his internal organs as well as some muscles. "His holy energy destroys his weak organs and muscles before slowly creating new ones. His body is getting stronger by the second, but as everything has a price in this world, he had to suffer excruciating pain to get that."
Ras nodded his head when he saw that, only to stop the motion once he saw something else. "Wait, what\'s this energy? Is it... demonic energy?"
"What?" Aria looked again, only to see a tiny pool of black color\'s energy. In the bottom part of his body. It wasn\'t even comparable to the amount of holy energy that Kye had right now, but it was still there. Little and almost unnoticeable. But still there. "How is it possible? Holy energy and demonic energy are supposed to fight against each other. And it\'s, even more, the case inside someone\'s body, destroying it because they can\'t live together.
"And yet here both energies seemed to be in peace. The holy energy can crush the demonic energy in a second, but it leaves it alone instead."
"Wait take a look," Ras stopped her. "The demonic energy seemed to blend with the holy energy."
"I-Is it camouflaging itself inside it?" Aria couldn\'t believe her eyes. The black energy completely disappeared. But instead of going away, it stayed inside Kye\'s body and fuse with it. "How is it possible?"
While they were discussing, Kye\'s body kept changing. His blood kept boiling inside of his body, his organs kept coming out in a tiny bit. The same applied to his muscles as well. And there were even what looked like tiny parts of bones coming out as well. However, it wasn\'t only the internal part of his body that was changing.
Since his old internal body was now almost free, it let place to the new part. New bones were more strong and sturdy. New muscles that were stronger and healthier, as well as a new skin that was slowly changing. Even his wings\' feathers looked greater, while the overall appearance looked more majestic
His old skin was piled off his body to be replaced by a new one, free from all impurities. Even his hair got a change. They were a lot healthier than before.
However, this process wasn\'t the easy one. It hurt him like hell when everything was coming out of his body. But it hurt two times more when things were being recreated. Sure his body was getting stronger and at the same time his holy energy greater, but it made him hurt a lot more.
So much that Kye clenched all the parts of his body to try to alleviate the pain. Like last time, he was trying to hurt himself to forget the pain he was feeling, but it didn\'t change one bit because it seems that it was getting worse and worse as the seconds pass.
Aria and Ras watched all the process, and even though they were very, very old, they never saw such a gruesome scene appear in front of them. It looked even worse than any torture they could have possibly used until now or knew about. It was as if Kye was experiencing destruction and creation one after the other.
And yet, even through all this pain, Kye didn\'t faint. He was enduring through the process. Sure he was screaming until even his throat began to bleed. Sure he was in pain. Sure he was under a lot of pressure. Sure he felt as if it was better to die. But he didn\'t give up.
