"Is that Ignis?" Zephir couldn't help but ask as he looked ahead of him.
Everyone's gaze, even the Excidium's, was fixed on the same spot, the very source of the crushing pressure weighing down on them.
Floating high above them was Ignis, though he looked vastly different from before.
Like Darius, he had also developed scales on his skin, and behind his back was a pair of large dragon wings and a tail.
His red hair had turned completely black, but unlike Darius, whose hair was changing because of the Void's blessing, Ignis's transformation was purely the result of his dragon's power.
His Iris were the only thing that retained their red color, but they were now glowing, and his pupils had turned vertical, similar to a reptile's.
On his face was an even larger grin as he looked down at them all.
At the moment of his death, his compatibility with his dragon had suddenly spiked, allowing him to unlock the Dragon Sovereign's Mantle.
