As Savast's mental energy had spiked inside his head, Baddan had remembered Skullius' words from right before he and the others began the Impossible Task.
Kill at least 1,000, and I will honour you as an equal.
(A/N: Refer to Ch.1334.)
Savast hadn't been there when Skullius made the declaration. He hadn't lived and fought for Skullius like the Sky Watcher had and thus couldn't understand the weight of those words. To Baddan, they meant everything. For a beast like him, lost and stranded, to be acknowledged by someone of Skullius' caliber, and to even be named an equal…
That inspired more than just raw determination inside Baddan. He had completed the Impossible Task with flying colors. That meant that he was indeed Skullius' equal, right? Equal didn't need to mean strength. No, it could be interpreted in a variety of ways.
…And thus, while on death's door, ripped to pieces, he attempted something absurd.
