"Penalty!" The referee shouted in Canthic. "Illegal hold!"
For the third time since the match began, Rui growled in frustration as she tried to work through the effects of Quynh's pill.
Despite the fact that this was the easiest time she'd had while under the pill's duress, the effect it was having on her ability to concentrate meant she hadn't once been able to strike the Ascendant of Wind without waiting for her to attack before grappling her.
But grappling, it seems, was off the menu despite the rules officially stating that two seconds was the limit. The referees were making the shittiest calls as soon as Rui got a hold of the floaty soul eater whose very presence set her on edge.
Then again, Quynh's training aid could have been messing with her perceptions.
