Zoemi was literally skewered with multiple water spears that he didn't block because he deactivated his shadow enchantments earlier in the fight to not finish off Vianee too soon...
...which ended up proving to be a big mistake...
Gaining momentarily control over the rouge shadow puppet of the deceased Ludier Galamroze had massively drained the black-haired boy's mana with its ridiculous requirement, pushing him right into the early stages of the mana depletion.

"!!!"
With blood constantly pouring out of his mouth, Zoemi slowly turned around to face the blue-haired Aerea who froze up, petrified by the nightmarish sight of the bloodloss, lifeless void-like eyes, and the expression of cold fury.
*WHOOSH*
"?!?!?!?!"
Well, at least the blue-haired woman didn't have to worry about the horror-esque sight as the next moment Zoemi's body got swallowed by a murky shadow that transformed a demonic-looking armor with beastly features.
