The elemental fury of Ariel's attack had failed to break through his defenses, a testament to the divine power coursing through his veins.

"You are a formidable opponent, Karna," Ariel remarked, her voice tinged with admiration. "But do not think that victory comes easily. I will push you to your limits and beyond."
