Currently Verge was reminiscing as he further polished his spirit manipulation through meditation, mostly because the youngest of his wards had taken to sunning herself like a Tailmon on his shoulder before falling asleep. His life had undergone a lot of changes after he had reached the Ultimate level, perhaps even more than it had when he first became a Champion. He finally achieved his revenge, left the Host, and even took to raising another ward.
…And looking back at it Verge found the oddest part of the last change to be that it had happened on what was supposed to be a scouting mission…. Though he certainly found Xia's presence in his life to be by far the most valuable part of that experience.
To think he would not have encountered her in the first place if it weren't for the fact that he'd been poisoned by the very same SaberLeomon that he would soon hunt down to load for more power...One's path in life could truly take them in odd ways.
The Lion thought back to that first encounter for a moment, remembering the Lynxmon that he'd bested only a short time after meeting Xia. From what he'd seen of the species, it operated via storing heat in its body and then releasing it in one burst to damage opponents.
That actually held some potential for Verge's own fighting style, a great deal of his attacks did involve the usage of fire after all. In fact he actually used two different types of fire as a result of both his wrath corruption and his newfound affinity towards the sun.
Hrmm.... If the pattern held up that would mean that any attempt he made to replicate Lynxmon's ability to store up thermal energy would either take on attributes from his sunfire or attributes from his darkfire.
Most likely because any heat Verge would store would undoubtedly be in the form of waste heat from his various sunfire and darkfire skills, though he'd likely need to stick to only one or the other when it came to storage anyway. Two opposing attributes at best tended to just neutralize one another and at worst they became exceptionally volatile, as his own core had constantly reminded him during his late rookie days.
…He would most likely end up utilizing the sunfire variant in his base form, after all the primary darkfire reliant attack he made use of was Fist of the Fallen Beast King.
That said it was almost certain that should he enter Wrath Mode the darkfire version would take prominence, not least of which because his turbines tended to ignite with darkfire whenever he entered the mode.
Of course practice would be required before he could truly confirm any theories about how the skill would work…He would have to get upon it immediately.
And then Xia yawned and stretched out her arms on his shoulder pauldron before flipping over to expose her belly to the sun.
…Fine he would practice after Xia awoke from her nap.
