Tactical Siege

The fourth event of the Inter-Academy Festival transformed the arena into a battlefield of strategy and raw power. Tactical Siege featured teams of five students, with one team defending a fortress containing three objective points while the attacking team attempted to capture them within fifteen minutes.

Jack Blazespout stood at the staging area, white flames dancing between his fingertips as he surveyed the fortress his team would be attacking. The low Integration-rank mage rolled his shoulders, the motion deliberate and focused.

"Ren's inside," he said to his teammates. "His God's Eyes will have mapped every approach vector already." Jack's normally casual demeanor had shifted to something sharper, more predatory. "We hit from multiple angles. Overload his perception."
