Ash had thought Valcas had something to tell him, but unexpectedly, he was met with a counter-question. However, Ash indeed had many questions he wanted answers to: "Starting from after your death?"
Valcas seemed to have no intention of keeping secrets and calmly said, "After being killed by the Titan Executioner, my soul left my body, pulled downward by gravity."
"It was like sinking into the Deep Sea, drifting down unknowingly. But in the deep sea, there were sieves. As my soul flowed into these sieves, many impurities were filtered out, and then my soul was able to continue falling. After passing through six layers of sieves, I arrived in the Time Continent, constantly tumbling and floating without even their consciousness having emerged."
"But 72 hours after my death, a drop of blood in my soul started to burst and spread, binding me while also awakening my consciousness."
Valcas opened his black robe, revealing a Blood Lotus on his collarbone.
