Leaning back in his chair, Hyperion said, "I'm sorry, but I can't help but think you are. If what you just described actually happened, then I would've known, because he would be dead and the number of Progenitors would have been reduced by one."
"Which is exactly why I came to you," Gaia shot back. "He's not dead, even though what I just said actually happened.
He absorbed a fragment of my Avatar's Divine Spark, and the only issue he had was Law Attribute Compatibility because the Aspect in it was that of Creation and not Destruction.
Even then, he managed to absorb the power and gain some form of immunity to Creation-based effects below his level."
Gaia's words explained the true nature of the 'Creation Vaccination' Arthur had received, something even he hadn't realised yet, and would only come to understand much later in the future.
Hyperion, on the other hand, had an expression of pure disbelief at Gaia's words.
