Before Jenso and Mikey could even turn to watch, the tri-elemental mage had a red splotch in his cloak, around the abdomen. Charles phased into view shortly afterwards, holding the dagger that had pierced his stomach. It wasn't a fatal wound, but the mage dropped and Charles already began walking out of the ring.

	"W..Winner!" The announcer shouted. "Charles proceeds to round two!"

	"Hey!" Mikey shouted, "Great going! Way to show these amateurish magic used who's boss!"

	"Easy win," Charles mused, "Thank god this won't be difficult... Oh?" He stopped in front of Jenso and looked him over. "Right, I'm fighting you next round. Do me a favor and make it easy on yourself, kay? I don't want to hurt you."
