The lightning baptism continued. Ves and his incarnations continued to grow stronger in ways that made him fearful of how much of his original self would be left at his end.
Although he had already made peace with the fact that he had sacrificed his humanity, the depth and scope of the transformations went way beyond anything he could have anticipated from the start!
He did not believe the scope and magnitude of punishment by lightning was normal by any means.
The reason why it was so much bigger and more destructive was because Ves had lived a more eventful life than most entities despite his relative youth.
"It also doesn't help that I never received any proper warning!"
Nothing in his knowledge base taught him how to defend, mitigate or avoid the punishment from 'the heavens'.
Unlike his prior interactions with the Milky Way Galaxy and the Red Ocean Galaxy, the System was no longer able to provide him with any further VIP treatment.
