Chapter 171

“Seafarion.” Nyx jolted awake, realizing the male holding her was burning with fever, his body temperature clearly abnormal.

Hearing her cry out, Theon immediately barged in through the door.

The intruder’s presence triggered Seafarion’s alertness, enraging him.

Though Theon had anticipated this, he still grunted in pain as he was attacked, staggering a few steps from the force.

The sound affected Nyx as well, and she appeared disoriented.

Seafarion thought, ‘Don’t hurt her.‘

He struggled to retract his strength from Nyx, loosening his hold on her, and then, unable to endure any longer, slammed his head into the wall.

Nyx regained some clarity and saw Seafarion writhing and struggling.

His beautiful fishtail was covered in blood, marks of self–inflicted wounds from trying to release his pain.

Nyx recalled what Seafarion’s grandfather had said: Eldergene Awakening is a highly dangerous ability with a very high mortality rate.

She hadn’t fully understood what this meant until now.

“Is there any way to help him?” She turned to Seafarion’s grandfather, her words frantic and incoherent.

Seafarion’s grandfather’s expression was filled with sorrow as he shook his head helplessly.

This was Seafarion’s battle alone. No one could help.

He gestured for Nyx to leave. “You shouldn’t stay here. He’s lost his sanity, and if the pain gets too much, he might hurt you.”

An out–of–control male was already full of aggression, and with Seafarion in the midst of Eldergene Awakening, his destructive power was unimaginable.

Nyx sat hopelessly on the bed, staring blankly at Seafarion.

Seafarion was usually so conscious of his appearance, but now he looked completely disheveled, his hair a mess, and his handsome face covered in sweat and blood.

He stared at Nyx with an intense gaze, as though he couldn’t bear to look away, wanting to watch her for just a little longer.

His eyes were filled with longing, almost tangible, but he deliberately kept his distance from Nyx.
