The sky burned with magic energy as Gildarts Clive faced August, the strongest of the Spriggan 12, in the ruins of the Kardia Cathedral in Magnolia. The ground trembled beneath your feet as you stood beside Cana, who had just arrived to aid her father. The atmosphere crackled with tension as August hovered above, his calm demeanor masking his overwhelming power.

Gildarts, ever unshaken, grinned with a confident gleam in his eyes as he glanced at you and Cana. Despite the chaos swirling around him, his demeanor remained calm, almost amused by the intensity of the battle.

— Looks like I’ve got more backup than expected. He said, his voice filled with confidence despite the threat looming ahead.

— But this guy’s not your average opponent."

August raised a hand, and an immense wave of magic exploded outward. Cana and Gildarts leapt forward, dodging the surge of energy, your own magic surging through your body as you charged towards August. Beside you, Cana threw her cards with precision, creating a barrier that shielded Gildarts for a moment.

— Come on! We can take him! Gildarts battle cried with a renewed determination.
