Thor looked at the glowing potion, and then gently picked it up in his beak before pulling the cap off with his tongue to let it pour down his throat.
[And now we know why Tessa likes him so much.] Cara sleepily mumbled, almost making Thor spit up the potion.
But he got it down successfully, and his power was growing even more rapidly than Cara's had. It was almost as if the potion were extra compatible with his immense body, and he crashed headlong into the bottleneck at the very peak of Overlord Rank.
Then, he stopped, while the power in his body continued to grow.
Along with the power, his body continued to grow, as if the Behemoth was aging at an accelerated pace, sitting at the species cap for internal power.
At first, it looked like the species barrier was going to be too strong to overcome, but just as the potion's effect was beginning to fade, Thor's space rang with power, vibrating like a bell and waking Cara from her nap.
