As soon as the Three-Legged Crow was bonded to him, the illusory beast lay in wait for his command. Alex ignored the beast for the moment, placing his attention back in his Spiritual Sea, where the Sun God was still slowly growing.
The remaining power from outside continued to flow into him, helping the Sun God be born. It was so very close that Alex genuinely panicked. If he didn't seal it quickly, it would be too late.
He tried sealing the Sun God once again, but still he struggled. This time, the energy seemed a little more willing, but it still failed.
It was so counterintuitive that the only way for the Sun God to be sealed was when this energy of his was incredibly weak. If not for the Sun God himself telling him this, Alex might not have even guessed such a thing was the case.
"I need to make it weaker," Alex told himself. He looked toward Shumi and saw her staring right back at him.
