That longer statement exhausted the alien of his last forces. The almost-extinguished black smoke on his figure vanished completely, and his body finally fell prey to its broken condition, losing its last vestiges of structural integrity.
The smaller alien's figure crumbled on itself, releasing no gore or blood. Khan had turned him into a mess of cracks, which rained down in the form of shards before turning into dust.
Khan reached for that black dust dispersing into the environment, savoring its effects for the last time. A minute trace of the smoke's obliterating properties still lingered on that vanishing powder, and Khan felt its weak presence attempting to affect his mana.
However, Khan's mana easily resisted that presence. Part of that was due to how faint the obliterating force was in its current form, but Khan's recent enlightenment also played a significant role.
