The Umbra Phantom Mantle Shifts

"That's quite the formidable pressure you're emitting there. I guess it's safe to say you have succeeded in elevating yourself to another level. Except for your demeanor, everything else can be comparable to a Greater Demon," Furcas commented while examining the notable increase in Apollo's power.

On the other hand, Apollo marveled at his body's current strength as he opened and clenched his fists, 'Amazing, so this is the power granted by a stable Ira Stigmata. The energy flowing through me is at least twice as vibrant as before. Furthermore, my Demonic Anima holds a trace of Ira without me invoking my stigmata's power,' Apollo inwardly exclaimed. 

This newfound power elated Apollo. Along with the increase in power, came an addition to his ego. Certain opponents didn't even enter his eyes anymore. For example, he wasn't even interested in combating Lesser Ifrits, he wanted to attempt battle with something far greater.
