When I went up to the next floor and searched for the exit to it, I found Eric slowly flying in a direction.
He stopped when my senses washed over him. I think he tensed up also.
When I teleported in front of him, he reeled back slightly also, which was confusing. Why was he scared of me?
Then it hit me, I'm so powerful now that he probably doesn't recognise me. And even if I look the same, I might not be the same. Hell, I could just be someone who looks like me to him.
"Hi." I didn't exactly know what else to say to him to be honest. I could explain everything that's happened, but I didn't exactly feel like doing that immediately as he might not believe me.
"Hey…" He responded cautiously. "You're… Not possessed or something, right?"
"No, I just… Got more powerful. Unbelievably so." I said in a calm manner, trying to make my voice as light and unthreatening as possible.
He looked me up and down for a second before he sceptically asked, "How?"
