Buttermint pointed lazily toward the battlefield.
"Li has a very unusual ability." His voice was casual. "But when he locks eyes with someone…"
"…he can see the weakness in their attacks."
Soren's eyes widened.
And suddenly—
Everything made sense.
Li moved again.This time his attacks flowed like a river.
Every step was precise.
Every strike perfectly timed.
It was as if—
He already knew where Aegon would move before he moved.
The katana sliced forward.
Aegon barely blocked. Another strike.
Another forced retreat.The difference between them had become obvious.
Then—
It happened.
For just a moment—
Aegon's arm lowered.
And their eyes met.
Directly.
The instant it happened—
Aegon's body froze. His chest suddenly tightened. Dark veins began spreading up his neck.
His hands trembled. The nunchucks slipped slightly in his grip.
Buttermint sighed quietly. "…Too late."
He took another bite of his sandwich.
"Aegon has lost."
Aegon collapsed to one knee.
Then both.
