The Nexus became unstable, as if it were losing its connection with everything it had bonded with.
Its entire being was being erased from within.
The link with the other Nexuses was severed in an instant, while poor Zorathar, surrounded by all the Diaphanes in a distant place, suddenly lost his power and was killed instantly.
The Nexus's outer shell remained intact, but its essence had vanished.
"Well, not exactly as I expected, but it's still a victory. Now, Azure, it's your turn."
Jeremy forced a smile as he said those words, his eyes glinting with a mix of triumph and calculated anticipation.
Meanwhile, Azure was ready. The ship changed form again, taking on the appearance of an enormous mouth, at least a quarter the size of the Nexus.
However, its voracity knew no bounds.
Opening its maw wide, a force sucked in the entire Nexus.
"Well done, Master, it's done." Azure's monotone voice echoed in Jeremy's mind.
He had just devoured the Nexus.
"Good. How do you feel?"
