The Blood Prince smiled faintly upon seeing his sister—and a familiar Granian face—before his body finally gave in.
He collapsed.
Painful tremors rippled through his weakened, feeble form as his already frail body deteriorated further. Blood spilled from his nose and mouth, splattering against the ground beneath him. But what followed was far worse than the pain, something he had never expected to experience in his life as a Blood Mutant.
'What's happening…?'
*DING*
[!! WARNING !!]
[YOU HAVE LOST YOUR BLOOD ACOLYTES.]
[YOU NO LONGER POSSESS THE AUTHORITY TO COMMAND, CONTROL, OR SHARE YOUR STRENGTH WITH THEM.]
Ace's vision swam.
The moment the system notification finished displaying, his body went completely limp, collapsing flat against the ground.
"Ace!"
