The Gnome was shocked by the sudden change of his darkness domain. This was the first time he was experiencing something like this, so he was not just shocked, but also very worried. The reason for his worry was because he tried to remove his domain, only to discover to his horror that he could not reclaim it again.
Klaus looked at the Gnome with a playful smile, "I froze your domain, what, surprised?"
The Gnome could see the obvious pride in Klaus' face, but he could not comprehend how what Klaus did was possible. He has seen when an Elementalist's domain is destroyed, and although it could be used again, it would lose most of its power and would need some time to regain full strength. This was the reason even though domains are powerful, most Elementalists prefer to only use it when they know they have full confidence it can not be destroyed by the other party or if they had no choice.
