'I really became Sub-Cosmic without realising.'
He took a moment to think about it, then silently facepalmed as he realised the answers had been right in front of him the entire time.
'I'm currently in an energy-deficient state, so I shouldn't have been able to regenerate, but my flesh was still regrowing. Why didn't I find that weird?'
The strength and speed of his regeneration depended on his Health Stat, however, the fuel needed for that regeneration came from his energy core, namely his Dragon Heart.
The same Dragon Heart that currently wasn't beating and didn't have even a trace of energy inside it. If so, then how could he have been regenerating?
It was naturally ambient cosmic energy being consumed to restore his body.
Cosmic Superiors, whether they were merely Sub-Cosmic or Complete Cosmic Beings, all possessed sturdy physical bodies with regenerative ability close to near-immortality.
