964 A Shifting Blame, Windstorm Ultimate Style

As Ranazera became lost in her thoughts and Aurelius celebrated his victory, a tiny crack formed in the earth under the Prime Eques' feet.

In the blink of an eye, the crack expanded as a sinkhole a little more than one meter in diameter opened.

Although he was caught off guard, Aurelius reacted quickly and jumped away from the sinkhole just before it could drag him in.

Woosh! Woosh!

Just as Aurelius' feet were about to touch the ground, several sharp spikes of earth rose up.

Aurelius slashed forward with his sword and destroyed the earth spikes. But it did not end there as the earth around the Prime Eques turned restless.

The following moment, the earth engulfed Aurelius in a sphere-like structure that was roughly three meters tall.

Crrrack!

All of a sudden, a hole opened in the earth a few steps away from the sphere that trapped Aurelius.
