He holds the energy bead in his hand " But, how am I supposed to absorb the energy from it?! " he says with a puzzled look. " The energy is slowly disappearing away !!! What should I do? "

With only one idea in mind, he swallows the bead " ggghhh, that sure doesn't taste good. " He suddenly feels the energy of the bead exploding out inside of him. The energy rushes through his body travelling through it and strengthening them as it goes around. The energy entered his limbs and strengthened them and then went into his energy bead. The energy also healed his legs slightly  but was still far from the point of being able to move with them.

He looks for the other energy bead in the other snake's corpse. He took it out and it seemed to glow as much as when the first energy bead was just taken out. " Hmmm, so this must mean that the energy disappears a lot slower when it's still in their body. Or maybe even in any body ?"

He doesn't waste any more time and quickly swallows the other one. The energy he felt this time was slightly bit more from the previous time. The same thing happened again, strengthening his body slowly, then heal his legs and go into his energy bead. His legs were now healed just enough so he could move with them but walking was still far away. The good thing is that his body was no longer in a life threatening state.

He still crawls around trying to look for any weak instinctuals just so he could get fully healed back up again. He finds three little rodents running around and kills them pretty easily. But this time he was quite hesitant to eat the energy bead. It was a life threatening situation when he swallowed the snakes' energy bead but now that he wasn't at a point of lingering near death, it was hard for him to put the bloody energy bead in his mouth.

Reluctantly, after waiting for a bit of time he finally got himself to eat the energy beads and is now a lot stronger than he was before. Eating those three energy beads gave him a lot of energy. His leg was now healed enough to be able to limp and he didn't wait the slightest bit of time to get back up again.

He limped on forward roaming around in the forest while also trying not to go deeper in. After about a minute he finds a different type of a snake. It was a python with a sharp blade like bone on it's rear and a sharp horn on it's head.

Aziel quickly hides behind some of the trees and is thinking if he should fight it or run away. He thought " This one looks a bit similar to the ones I saw earlier but his scales don't seem as thin. His skin seemes tougher to pierce and he also has those sharp bones which could hurt me. But I've gotten a lot stronger in just these past few hours and I really want to test my strength. But I'm still not sure if I could beat him with my injured legs. " He finally decides to fight it and tries to land the first hit as a fatal blow with a sneak attack.  He picks up a few sharp looking stones from around him trying not to make too much noise and throws them at the snake. He doesn't stop at all between each hit and throws them one after another.

Most of the stones either  missed or didn't pierce through his skin but barely two stones were still stuck in. Aziel quickly comes out of hiding and tries to stand tall while taking support from a tree behind him. The snake was enraged with the stones thrown at him and quickly rushed in with his sharp horn pointed right at him. He tried to thrust his horn at Aziel. Aziel didn't have anything to block the sharp horn with and could only block it by letting it pierce through his palm which he blocked it with. The snake tried to quickly retreat back after injuring him but Aziel already got a hold of him. He held the snake just above the snake's rear which had the blade. The snake tried to wiggle around trying to injure Aziel's hand with his sharp bone. The snake takes his horn out of Aziel's palm and goes for another attack. But Aziel pulled him back since he already had a hold of him. Aziel then twisted his whole upper body trying to get as much force as he could get and smashed the snake as hard as he could into the tree behind him. In just two smashes the snake's horn was broken off and another two was enough to get rid of it. He then threw the dead snake on the ground completely exhausted. He layed down on the ground looking up at the sky as he saw that the sun was almost down. He scoured the snake's body and took the energy bead out. He quickly swallowed it and the energy came out like usual. But something different happened this time. When the energy went into his energy bead it felt full. His bead felt like it was completely filled with energy. Suddenly, all the energy which had went inside his bead till now was now bursting out of it. All of his accumulated energy went around his body strengthening him again and again until the energy was completely used. He felt a lot stronger and was now completely healed . He also felt that his energy bead changed slightly. There seemed to be a different type of space inside of it. The space slowly grew and stopped after a bit of time.

After all of the changes in his body stopped Aziel shouted " I'VE REACHED THE SECOND CLOUD !!!! "
