The battle was indeed won and it made Alex feel slightly relieved, knowing he had taken the first step in his quest to return home.
At the same time, Ana remarked yet again. "We won."
Alex tried to speak but couldn't as a sudden wave of weakness came upon him, leaving him unable to remain standing.
He fell to his knees a second later.
"Master!" Charlotte exclaimed as she moved to support him with the latter breathing heavily as he sought to remain conscious.
Recalling his conversation with Nyx and the contract signed, he knew it was a vain attempt to establish a foothold against that great being.
He had felt it before and now he felt it yet again.
Nyx… was beyond anything he could imagine.
Even trying to face off against such an entity left him listless so he had to maintain a certain level of distance for the time being.
