At the same time, Vesa created a complicated rune formation. She then burned this pattern into Alex's crimson armor, changing its appearance. The pattern was black in color, but soon it started changing into green. While this happened, two pairs of wings came out from Alex's back, expelling a rainbow aura, making it look graceful. But in reality, this aura was the contamination from the lifeforce. Since Alex didn't have a way to convert it to pure energy, he expelled it all.
From his knees to his feet, his crimson armor shot out like roots from a tree, carving deep underground to absorb more lifeforce.
