Kapitel 299: Never judge a book by its cover, and never underestimate Rio Havenglow

To add insult to injury, Torin's ultimate attack had ended up being his undoing, leaving him in a state of utter defeat. It was a deliciously ironic twist of fate, like a chef getting burnt by his own soufflé or a musician going deaf from their own music.

The poor guy had to face not only his own failure but also the humiliation of knowing that his own signature move had been used against him.

Talk about a major oops moment! It was a sight to see, watching the proud and confident Torin crumble before Rio's masterful counterattack. The whole ordeal was like watching a bad horror movie, except this time the monster ended up being the victim of its own tricks.

Soon, the referee announced, "Rio Havenglow wins the match and becomes the Champion of the International Tournament." 

Right after that, the sky above the stadium came alive with a dazzling display of daylight firecrackers, crackling and popping in a symphony of colors and light.
