章 43: Awakening part 2 - his Goddess

As Rio waited for her arrival, he continued the process to control his element. Even with the support of Dress of Ishvar, soon his body started feeling the fatigue of losing mana. The amount of mana that he spent controlling the darkness increased with time but the supply of that artifact was constant.

His hands had darkened now and his eyes were shrouded in the form of the void that he imagined in his mind.

The entire mana room was shrouded in the black fog that started to spread everywhere as it consumed the lightning in the room and runes. The magic circles and formations too started flickering in their blue light before dying down and being broken.

Despite the darkness, somehow Rio was able to see everything, he could see the golden barrier that kept his family safe, and his element which was thriving and consuming everything else in the room was getting pushed back.

He looked upwards waiting for her arrival but that didn't happen, there was no sign of her.
