Cordis ignored the remark.
Colt still had his doubts about what the two had said, and he remained hesitant.
Seeing this, Cordis gritted his teeth and pulled off the eyepatch over his right eye. A dark, empty socket appeared before Colt, and Cordis pointed at it, his face full of anger.
"My right eye is gone! That poison did this to me. I don't want to die!"
Colt hadn't expected Cordis to do that either. He stepped back a few paces and waved to the others behind him. "Take them away."
