The battlefield was chaos—but at the center of it all stood Alden and Ava, back-to-back, defending the earthen dome shielding the civilians.

"HAAAAA!" Alden let out a feral war cry. His aura flared wildly, fire pouring from every inch of his body.
"How I missed this feeling!" he yelled, laughter echoing through the chaos. "Ever since the entrance exam—I've wanted to take on multiple at once again!"
