****
The Binding of the Ancestral Staff of Darkness was completed. The Ancestral Staff lied still after it was tied to Gabriel.
As the Mark of Darkness appeared right next to his Mark of Light, Gabriel's body also started recovering even more. The veins of his that had turned black returned back to normal as if a balance had been established where the darkness was being kept at bay by his light and vice versa.
Things seemed to have settled down as his life force was also stable. Not only was it stable, but his life force had only become stronger.
The Infernal King could finally relax as it seemed that Gabriel was fine now. Whatever problem he was facing, he seemed to have navigated out of it. Now all they needed was to wait for him to get up.
Gabriel was out of danger. The Prison of Darkness had been destroyed, so he was as safe as it could be. It was also when his consciousness started waking up, albeit slowly.
