Zion stood over Arion's dead body, his eyes unfocused and his face blank. He could feel, couldn't think, couldn't see, or couldn't hear. He was completely unconscious.
The intense battle with Arion not only pushed Zion to his limits, but it also made him forcefully ascend to the realm of the gods, which was too much for his demigod body to handle.
Because of this, his body shut down, and he started dying.
Blood dripped from his eyes, nose, and ears. Then, an intense pain surged through his body.
"ARGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!" Zion's energy erupted, spreading violently throughout the area, ripping his body apart.
"ZION!" Tessa controlled Zion's suit, making it fly toward her as she too flew toward him to meet in the middle.
She checked his vitals, and they were spiking beyond belief. She had seen nothing like this before. It was as if every cell in his body was self-destructing, but because of Zion's healing factor, he just kept regenerating, creating an endless cycle of pain.
