(Sky-God Arena, Leo's POV)
*BOOOOOM—!*
A massive explosion shook the ground below Leo's feet as he stumbled off-balance, his daggers instinctively raised in confusion.
'What's going on?' he wondered—but before the thought could even complete, the very arena beneath him split open with a terrible mechanical groan, and his entire body lurched downward into the abyss.
He was free-falling.
The ground beneath had collapsed, or rather, had been completely destroyed, as he dropped through the cracked floor like a helpless stone, the surface level of the arena vanishing above him, as he fell deeper and deeper with every passing second.
'A blast? And here?' Leo's thoughts spun with confusion as the wind howled around him, his hair flailing and his limbs whipping in the fall.
The Sky-God Arena… was the last place he would have expected something to go wrong.
