Ning jumped in front of Frostveil, positioning himself between them. The snake stopped and reared back mid-attack, then changed into a bat that shot upward, flying toward the ceiling.
"Calvin, listen to me!" the bat screeched. "Lord Tritus saved you! He gave you purpose. Are you going to betray his trust?"
"Calvin, you're a good man," Godhood said, keeping the man with him from returning to his evil ways.
Ning stared at the bat, his mind working. The creature could obviously turn into beasts, but it was happening way too fast for it to be deliberate. Even if the transformation itself was instantaneous, a regular human mind could not nearly be as reflexive as this man was being.
It was almost like he wasn't even in control of his own power.
'Is it automatic? Does his body just shift to whatever form would best survive each threat?' Ning wondered.
That was the only answer he could find in this situation.
