The thunderous hiss and beam were expressions of overwhelming ecstasy. Khan felt as if he had truly come alive, as if his ascension was finally reaching completion, demanding that primitive announcement to the world.
The beam illuminated the vast emptiness with its red radiance, creating another star that spread destruction and light, but the benefits of that feeding session didn't end there.
The injuries Khan had suffered during the previous charge healed on the spot. Even the internal wounds caused by the implosions fixed themselves before the continuous energy absorption sent his organs into overdrive.
That empowered Khan's beam even further, altering it. The attack went from a mere release of surplus energy with sparks running through it to emitting proper lightning bolts, becoming the pillar at the center of a storm.
