Nyx's gaze locked on Ellis.
Storms of magic surged around him, and his fingertips trembled like there was still a shred of sanity left, but that sanity was so fragile it almost faltered at the call of the abyss.
"Ellis ..." His voice was raspy and pained as if it had been torn apart.
Ellis didn't answer, just continued on.
"Ellis, listen to me ..." Nyx's voice was low with broken emotion, "please ... don't do this..."
Ellis's steps faltered.He had never heard Nyx speak to him in that tone before.
Nyx was a proud demon, he never bowed down, never gave in, even when he was being punished by Ellis, he always playfully relied on it, never really showing weakness.But now, there was a faint trace of humility and fear in his tone, and there was no cunning in his golden eyes, only despair.
Ellis's fingers tightened slightly.But there was no stopping.
He raised his hand, his magic power surged, and a huge golden sealing formation instantly unfolded under Nyx's feet, quickly surrounding him like a cage.
Nyx's eyes snapped wide open."No."He finally realized what Ellis was trying to do.
Rune chains emerged from the void, and one by one, they climbed up Nyx's limbs, imprisoning him in death, the golden light like the chains that bound the abyss, suppressing him firmly in the center.
Nyx struggled, his black wings flapped violently, his furious magic trying to break free from the seal, but his resistance was just futile, the sealing array had been completely completed, the flow of magic was gradually suppressed, unable to be released outwards again.
"Ellis!"
Nyx's voice was hoarse with unprecedented anger and panic, his body was dragged into the ground bit by bit by the golden runic chains, his magic power began to be swallowed by the abyss, the scarlet in his eyes was gradually suppressed, while his sanity returned in despair.
"Stop!"He struggled violently, his voice laced with tearing pain, "Ellis!Please!Listen to me!"
Ellis' fingertips trembled slightly.But he still didn't stop.
The magical array slowly closed, the darkness gradually engulfing Nyx's figure, his fingers clawing at the void as if desperately trying to grasp something, but Ellis stood outside the seal, never reaching out.
Nyx's voice went mute.His eyes were dead set on Ellis, reddened, as if he had lost all strength to struggle."Please, Master."His voice was faintly audible.
The sealing array finally closed, and the golden light completely engulfed Nyx's figure as the square returned to dead silence.
The cracks in the sky disappeared, the magic storm was completely suppressed, and aftershocks lingered in the air, but everything was calm again.
Everyone around breathed a sigh of relief, the tutors' magic power slowly collected, and the trainees stared blankly at the already closed magic array in the center with complex expressions.
But Ellis did not move.
He stood still, staring at the place in the seal where Nyx had disappeared, the magic power in his palm trembling slightly, but his eyes remained calm.
He made a choice.
He sealed Nix, stopped the disaster, and saved the academy.
But why was ... it like a piece of his heart had been plucked out?
The Magic Academy, as always, was calm.
