Gabriel's consciousness was trapped inside the Realm of Darkness, unable to use his Element. Even though his control over his Grimoire had improved a lot throughout the last few days, it was still not enough for him to be able to call his Grimoire here.
He was lying on the ground, with a dark force acting over him. His hands were before him, having both the elemental marks. The only difference was that his black ring wasn't here.
Even though he wasn't bleeding at the moment, that was only because he wasn't here in his spiritual form. If he were here with his real body, he would've been covered in blood.
"One last time, I'm asking you! Gabriel, don't be stubborn! Tell me where the Ancestral Staff of Darkness is and I might take mercy on you and not hurt you too much!"
"I suppose your mercy doesn't include letting me leave this place?" Gabriel asked as he still kept resisting the dark force acting up on him.
