76 Chapter 72 - I Don't Want to Fight Him!

Facing Sky who had slowly lost his sanity, Chris carefully observed his every movement while blocking his continuous attack with a strong barrier, however, although been an idiot and slightly losing control, Sky is still as overpowered as always, unable to sustain the brutal force from him, the barrier starts to crack. Well, Chris isn't weak either just that he doesn't feel like fighting Sky right now, due to three reasons. First, he absolutely doesn't want to have a real fight with his friend, second, if two strong Immortals actually fought with each other, the impact will be very big, even the shadow trap would not be able to hold it in, the last time they actually had a serious fight in an open area at another dimension like Null dimension which has a low tolerance to magic force, they destroyed a whole dimension. The third reason, instead of fighting with him directly, wasting his time and energy, Chris prefers to find the real reason that causes Sky to lose his sanity. Then he noticed a small difference at Sky's crystal pendant, one of the edges of the crystal was slightly damaged.

"So... That's the reason..." He murmured, then he looks at the barrier which is at the verge of breaking down and he turned to Ben. "Ben, can you please help me holding this shadow trap in shape for five minutes?" "Yes, I can. But are you sure you are going to fight him?" said Ben. "I guess I don't have much choice, and I really have to go serious on his if not all of us will be doomed. I hope this barrier could last for five more minutes, if not... Ben, I counted on you for the support." said so, Chris placed a bind on Sky and exited the barrier. Ben removed his glasses, he placed both of his hand together and closed his eyes, like a praying posture, his body glows with soft white lights, then the barrier and the shadow trap which was trembling a moment ago stabilized a bit.

Chris who is surrounded by a mixture of dark red and white aura, stared at Sky who is struggling to break his bind, he knows that the bind he placed would not last long. While in Sky's eyes, he saw a person that looks exactly like Chris, provoking him to attack. Chris sighed, a hidden tattoo pattern on his right hand which acts as his *basic magic seal glows and disappeared indicate release of the magic seal. Then he took out a small ritual knife, pricked his own fingers and smeared the knife with his own blood.

*magic seal is placed on individuals with special powers in order to press down and limiting their magic usage in Null Dimension to prevent unnecessary damage to the area and the user. There are different types of seal, for example Chris and Michael are using tattoo seals, just that Chris's seals are hidden and invisible most of the time while Michael's seal is clearly shown on his body. While Sky's seal is his magic crystal. But usually, those overpowered characters will use more that one type of magic seal. Will make a special chapter sometime to explain about the magic seals of those overpowered characters.

**since the magic resistance effects around Ben's hospital is quite low, so those two could use their magic quite freely.

Then, the bind Chris placed on Sky break, Sky charged to Chris like a beast that is lusting for blood, he had totally lost his sanity. This time, Chris did not dodge or block, he just stands at there waiting for Sky to get him, with that ritual knife in his hand. As Sky reaches him with full force, and about to slash him in halves with his sword, Chris pushed Sky's hand away and knocked down the sword. Then, with the ritual knife, he swiftly engraved a magic circle/seal on Sky's chest with the ritual knife that smeared with his own blood...

However, before Chris could finish the magic seal, Sky raised his left hand which is now glowing with green light... Chris knows exactly what's that green light means and how destructive it is. But at this moment, completing the magic circle is more important than anything, he continues to engrave the magic as fast as he can, and as he completed the circle, he teleported away just before Sky reached him.

*take note, all the above things occur in less than five seconds.

Chris holds up his ritual knife, hesitated for a second before piercing it to his right eye, as his blood dripped, a huge magic circle appeared near his right eyes and disappeared. The whole area trembled. The barrier around Ben cannot sustain the massive impact and broke down, Ben remains calm while trying hard to retain the shadow trap from falling apart. Chris dropped the ritual knife, raises his right hand and quickly chanted a spell silently, the magic circle on Sky's chest glows and forming countless of translucent chains and locks which 'tied' and 'locked' Sky's magic core, thus totally stopped Sky's magic flow.

As the chain and lock disappeared into Sky's body, he collapsed, while the shadow trap slowly fallen apart. Chris stared at Sky with a heavy breath before collapsed onto the ground in a kneeling position...
