Sorry to Keep You Waiting

"No wonder I haven't seen Evil Eye use Textless Book to try to free himself." Han Sen let out a sigh. When he saw spirit sword trigger all those ghastly emotions, he knew things were practically over.

Lone Bamboo could keep himself calm and controlled beneath the pressure of all that sadness, but Evil Eye couldn't. That meant Evil Eye was trying to fight two forms of willpower at once.

And just as Lone Bamboo had said earlier, Evil Eye had never once experienced the depression that accompanies failure and loss of hope. Now that Evil Eye had to fight against the emotions crushing him, he had little strength left to resist Lone Bamboo. He couldn't fight back, and he was done for.

"How could it all end like this? This is impossible!" Evil Eye screamed. The purple light in his eyes began to thin and flicker. It was being consumed by blood.
