As the Battle Royale progressed, the relentless heat of Stella's Scorching Aura began to take its toll on many of the participants. Those who had initially considered her power as merely a spectacle were soon forced to face the harsh reality of its devastating effects on both their elemental beasts and their own stamina. Trainers and their beasts struggled to adapt to the searing heat, and one by one, they began to fall, eliminated from the tournament by the sheer intensity of Stella's fiery presence.
Among the first to succumb were those with beasts that possessed a natural vulnerability to fire. A young trainer with a plant-based beast was devastated as his companion wilted under the sweltering heat, unable to draw upon its powers to fight back. As the trainer cradled his defeated beast in his arms, he uttered words of regret, "I should have prepared better, anticipated the strength of Stella's aura. I'm sorry, my friend."
