A brighter light than the one that had emanated before raged all over Red Rage's body. Slowly, Skullius saw the Apostle's body start to get mended, a crunching sound acting as the background effect.
Red Rage's core also started to get patched up, returning to its white spherical magnificence from its shattered state!
Throughout all this, Skullius would have loved to smile, hiding the bleeding he felt at losing all those Null Life Essence Points, but he couldn't.
Perhaps an emotionless skull face was not bad for this.
While he had planned to use them for Red Rage's benefit, the Penetrator had hoped to have some spares left for other things.
1000 points would have to do for now. Until he went hunting for more that is.
Soon, the brilliant flare-like effects ended as Red Rage dropped to the ground, standing heroically as the flash of light died down.
