"Wait… Wait a second…" Yuan had to do a double-take after hearing the curse's unexpected declaration, which confused the hell out of him, as the curse made it sound like it was a baby that was consumed before it could be born.
"She devoured you? Before you were born? Are you not a curse? If no, what in Heaven's name are you?" Yuan asked.
"I am… a curse now… as I cursed her… right before my death," said the curse.
"But before I became one… and before she… consumed me… I was … in the process of being born…"
"Had I been… born… I would have… become… an… Eternal!"
"?!?!"
Yuan's eyes widened with shock and disbelief after learning the curse's true identity—that Supreme Ruler Dena had actually consumed an Eternal before it could be born!
This explained why Supreme Ruler Dena was able to recreate Eternal Essence without being an Eternal herself, and why Yuan felt familiar with the curse's aura.
"However… I will not… allow myself… to die… so easily…!" The curse continued.
