Chapter 144: Chapter 144: Overwhelmed

Darkness was everywhere, surrounding the entire desert. It was as if the darkness had swallowed the entire sun. 

Cylix and Novius tried to see through the darkness, but there was something that was stopping even them. 

They looked at each other, wondering if they should go there and check for themselves. 

Fortunately, before they could decide, the darkness slowly started retreating.

The powerful aura that had momentarily covered the entire tower started dispersing. 

The light started returning to the desert, albeit slowly. 

As the darkness completely disappeared, Cylix and the others were able to see through the portal once again. 

As they looked through the Portal, they saw Gabriel sitting on his knees. His face was completely pale, and blood was trickling down his lips. 

"He lost..." Cylix muttered, noticing that Axion was still standing. 

Novius shook his head. "He didn't."
