Final Battle (1)

Ethan had witnessed the consequences of succumbing to the malevolent energy firsthand. It had brought pain, suffering, and despair, turning individuals into mindless vessels of destruction. It was a force that threatened to consume both the wielder and those around them, as it fed upon negative emotions and drove its users to acts of cruelty and malice.

"However, sometimes, not enough malevolent energy is created when one person dies with regret, so what happens with that?" Luneria asked.

"Energy can't be destroyed… only transformed," Emily said while rubbing her chin. "Does it affect the physical world? I can't see that happening…"

"Sometimes it does, but sometimes it doesn't," Luneria explained. "Most of the time, it doesn't, and the malevolent energy goes to the beyond. It attracts each other like a magnet and keeps growing and feeding itself on it."
