Pinnacle: Out of The Clutch

The enormous explosion that anyone around the vast battlefield expected did not occur. Instead, a silent buzzing sound appeared while blowing out a shock wave of wind, sweeping the explosion so that it was sucked into the center and dispelled.

Amidst the swirling debris and acrid smoke, a figure emerged from the center of the failed explosion. Ji-woo stands tall, shrouded in a veil of smoke and dust, an enigma etched beneath the toughness. His form, shrouded in a thin, shimmering mist, resembled embers doused in water, but for some reason still emitted thin tendrils of smoke.

A hush fell over the battlefield. The two summoned creatures, locked in a brutal fight moments ago, stood frozen. Their monstrous eyes swiveled towards Ji-woo's imposing form. Even their opponent, the four ArchMages could only be stunned by the newcomer's presence. Their faces etched with exhaustion from the relentless battle and fell silent.
