"The battle was over. The winner had been August!" declared Great Sorcerer Phelan.
The result had never been in doubt. Cesare's containment strategy had been shattered by August, who seized the initiative with an unrelenting barrage of wind spears. The speed and range of the attack overwhelmed Cesare, leaving him unable to react to each spear instantaneously or find an escape.
Having emerged victorious, August did not allow himself to become overly proud. He walked toward the defeated Cesare, who lay pinned to the ground by wind spears, with one poised dangerously close to piercing his forehead.
With a snap of his fingers, August dissolved the wind spears into elemental particles that vanished into thin air. He then fixed his gaze upon Cesare, who wore a disappointed expression, clearly unhappy about his defeat.
