Guardian Of The End

"Sht, I hate being wet!" Zeke cursed as icicles revolved around his body.

Before the entire town could be submerged under the waves of tsunami, Zeke immediately used ice magic to freeze the front portion of the tsunami.

All the icicles around him shot inside the water and froze it from the front before spreading towards the back.

Normally, the pressure and flow of the water from the orb would have broken the ice. However, Amber was using her fire magic to make sure that the amount of water would stay limited.

\'These black flames are amazing. I can control the amount of heat I want certain things to feel. The ice can continue spreading from the front while I evaporate the area from behind.\' Amber observed.

Her black flames had spread on top of the water like a second layer and went as far as the orb to prevent more water from coming forth.

Simultaneously, Zara had met up with Kalie and opened the portal to send forth portions of their army to the battlefield.

Seeing that the top powerhouses had appeared first, Kalie only sent long range fighters to the battlefield to chip at their enemies from a safe distance.

"Was that enough time for you to do your job, big sister?" Gale patiently ask as the orb was finally frozen by Zeke\'s icicles.

"Yes, it was. All the traps on the ground are no longer present there. You should have take out the other traps, right?" Briana asked Albus.

"Yes, my lady. There shouldn\'t be any traps left on this field." Albus replied politely.

Risa, who was the only one able to understand their conversation, had a grim expression on her face.

She had already anticipated this so she wasn\'t shocked. However, she didn\'t know how to break this information to the rest of them.

"All right. We will be seeing all of you soon." Briana waved her hand at the group before vanishing.

Gale and Albus vanished from their spots as well, leaving no one behind. This left everyone stunned since they hadn\'t expected the major warriors to back out so soon.

"What are they planning…" Issac murmured as he stared at the blue portal which was still open above the fields.

Zilan on the other hand was trying his best to communicate with Hiro. Unfortunately, the crown prince was currently stuck with Julian and had no means of talking with Zilan.

Just when everyone was tensed, Julian\'s plan was finally revealed. Thousands of teenagers appeared all across the field wearing the armor of different kingdoms.

​ With a single glance, anyone could tell that all these teenagers were there against their will.

"Oh you fking son of a…" Risa cursed under her breath.

There was no way anyone would be able to kill the teenagers without feeling at least a little remorse.

For all they knew, the teenagers could be extremely weak normal children who had to fight due to a contract.

Their only job was to lower the moral of the other side in order to lower their guard and make internal conflict rise between the two parties.

[ Everyone, listen carefully. There is a slight change of plans. Only Jason, Amber, Wade, Issac and me are going to stay on ground while everyone else is going to take care of the other areas. Is that clear? ] Risa asked.

Everyone nodded and dispersed to the new locations assigned to them. Risa and Issac appeared near the three teenagers and glanced down.

"Do any of you want to kill all of them?" Risa questioned.

All three shook their heads.

"Then we are going to try something new. Make sure to only knock them out o gravely injure them. I don\'t care how major the wounds are, you just have to make sure that they don\'t die instantly." Risa explained before appearing on the battlefield.

The teenagers started attacking her in a coordinated manner as if they were being controlled by someone else.

A mixture of spells and skills were being thrown around at Risa yet none of them were aimed at the quartet flying above.

"They are definitely being controlled by Julian to make sure none of them get out of hand." Issac commented as he saw Risa knocking out one teen after the other. "Do you guys want to help her?"

Jason was the first one to do that as he jumped down on the battlefield. The scene reminded him of the war he had seen on Earth and how he was just like the teenagers back then.

He moved through them at the speed of thunder, electrocuting them one by one. Amber simply pulled them under the ground and knocked them unconscious.

Wade used a slightly more painful method as he knocked them out by sucking the air from their lungs.

Since none of the teenagers were trained warriors, they couldn\'t fight well. Julian wasn\'t able to control all of them at once either so they were breaking formations left right.

Five minutes later, all of them had been neutralized and successfully teleported to one safe house Risa had emptied out for this purpose.

"This was just the first wave. Be prepared for what\'s about to come." Risa warned.

Seconds later, the first major wave of warriors appeared out of the portal. They covered the entire field and numbered in thousands.

"They are all soldiers of the kingdom who are fighting willingly. Go wild and make sure you aren\'t hurt yourself." Risa said with an evil grin.

She disappeared in the form of a ray of light and started shooting through the chests of the warriors. She managed to kill a thousand warriors at once by simply tearing through their chests.

"I almost forgot how strong and terrifying she could be without any restrictions. I am sure she is storing their hearts to perform some tests later on." Issac commented before activating his powers after a long time.

Black clouds suddenly appeared in the sky and started rumbling loudly. A black thunderbolt descended from the clouds and hit Issac\'s body.

His entire body shimmered brightly after being covered by black thunder.

Jason blank once and saw tens of thousands of dead bodies around. None of them had been present there before and they had instead been surrounded by warriors.

Issac\'s speed was so inhumane that even someone like Jason couldn\'t see his movements.

All he could sense was the black thunder shooting throughout the battlefield alongside the ray of light.

The two sometimes came close before diverging again to cover more area. Jason wondered whether he and the others even needed to do anything.

[ We are able to do this right now because these are very low ranked warriors. Julian was definitely expecting us to use our army as well which is why he sent so many warriors.

He wanted to reduce our numbers but that won\'t happen as long as me and Issac are fighting here. We will easily be able to defeat them and continue doing this for a long time. ] Risa explained to them.

[ But that was never the plan, was it? ] Jason chuckled. [ You never intended to use anyone else to fight. Your only goal was to make it look like everyone was going to participate so that if an insider was there, we will be safe. ]

[ Exactly. I am happy you obtained the strategical brain as well. ] Risa praised. [ Looks like the next wave is coming as well. All three of you go and check whether things are all right around the other parts. Jason, look out for May as well. ]

Jason nodded and flew away from the place. He was able to locate May easily as she was fighting some warriors near the eastern side of the town.

[ Everything all right? ] Jason asked while flying.

[ Yeah. Can you come here for a few minutes though? There are some young people here who I don\'t want to kill due to my bad control. Please knock them out. ]

Jason agreed and immediately flew out of the portal. Since he was going to go out of the barrier, he quickly activated the special artifact Risa had handed him the very same day.

\'What does it exactly do?\' Jason asked the system.

He landed right beside May and observed the teenagers in front of them. Just like those in the field, the teenagers were moving in a forced coordinated pattern.

[ It prevents you from being pulled away by someone else using a special artifact or trap. Its a passive protection artifact that is constantly active and will save you numerous times. ]

\'Gotta hand it to her to protect me in advance.\'

[ She has to do it because you are sometimes carefree so its best that she does this to keep you safe. ] The system replied.

With a sigh, Jason started knocking down teens while May put them on top of Kwinto to transport them.

While the duo was doing this, Julian was observing them from afar. He and his patron had still not figured out who May was or what powers she had.

In fact, they didn\'t even know her name and were simply seeing her use her powers to fight.

"Do you think I should go ahead with a major attack?" Julian questioned his patron.

[ Do it. ]

"All right. I guess it\'s time for Gale to show his true powers."
