At the fringes of Steles Forest.
Enzo, who had just entered, was convinced that he was being targeted.
The figure before him was likely a witness to the scene on the Trial Path, driven by greed for the life-giving water in his grasp. Encountering him in Steles Forest, he could hardly contain his eagerness to confront Enzo.
In the trial space, combat was not prohibited.
And danger lurked at every corner. Death was an all too familiar occurrence.
This man regarded him as nothing more than a lamb for the slaughter.
With this thought, a cold smile crept across Enzo's face as he retorted, "If you desire the life-giving water, let's see if you possess the strength to claim it!"
The man scoffed, "Soon, you'll be on your knees begging me to take it!"
As his words fell, flames erupted from the man's body, resembling a meteor plummeting from the heavens, crashing towards Enzo and Eve with tremendous force.
