Path of Annihilation—The First Seal Breaks

A palpable silence covered the battlefield as Yck's blood sprayed from his throat like a fountain. Even the children, who had been screaming from intense betrayal and fear just a moment ago, were now more quiet than the night.

Overhead, for as far as the sky could extend, demon squires were extinguished from existence.

Even Elise, who had finally caught up to Nick and was trying to warn him about the 2 commanders who came to slaughter the kids, stopped in her tracks.

The first seal of Annihilation was broken.

Now wasn't the time for fear or battle. The outcome had already been decided.

Therefore, now was solely the time for reverence.

Even the dead gods who have long sunk back into the depths of nothingness bowed their heads.

The first Progenitor, the King of the Cosmos, was finally reborn.

...

Darkness surrounded Nick once again. This time, it was a darkness he was more than familiar with.
