GUARDIAN OF THE END

Chapter 254 Predictions And Trust [Part 1]



"Gale was eliminated right now." Julian commented before a small smile appeared on his face. "You were right, Hiro. Risa explored his mind by easily breaking the barrier. She will be suspicious of you but the fake plan you told Gale will remain in her mind."

"I predicted this. Its the most natural way for anyone to behave especially when they know that I can be playing both sides." Hiro shrugged.

The crown prince was calmly sitting on a chair and was drinking some tea to calm himself.

Julian on the other hand was standing beside the replica of Duphia and was examining the points where his army could receive a breakthrough.

"What do you think we should do next? Since we already have them in this position, should I ask Albus to cast a spell over the entire town?" Julian asked.

"Hmm… from what I know, Albus is currently fighting Jason and Issac. Unless and until he manages to escape from there, he won't be able to cast any spell."

"He will die before he has the chance to escape. Issac isn't going to let Albus run away so easily. After all, he was once on their side." Julian muttered. "What does your patron ha to say about this?"

"She is currently silent and is likely not willing to give any advice. I will ask her for her insight on this later on." Hiro replied casually and stretched out his body.

Julian simply nodded and started walking out of the tent.

"Father, what do you think about Gale?" Hiro suddenly asked, making Julian stop in his tracks.

"I think he could have at least dealt some life threatening damage to that girl before dying. It was a waste to send him out like that. I should have known he would be useless without any support." Julian replied and walked out.

"I don't think you remember that Gale was your child…" Hiro murmured and exited the tent as well.

The crown prince could feel a fire burning inside him. However, he soon turned the flames down to prevent them from ruining his plan.

'Just wait for some more time. Once this battle is over, I will execute the final stage of my plan.'

"Uh grandpa, why is he dancing in that weird manner?" Jason questioned while pointing at Albus.

The principal of Vancouver academy was moving on his spot in a weird way while staring at the sky.

Upon closer inspection, Jason noticed that small runes were appearing all around his feet. More runes continued to appear the more Albus danced.

"He is trying to chant a high tier spell. Some of them include dancing in this way to use the spell. I think he is trying to take away majority of the population in one big move." Issac explained.

"Then we should go and smack his head." Jason smiled and cracked his knuckles.

"That's the spirit. You are learning the way to deal with majority of problems." Issac grinned and shot forward with the speed of thunder.

Jason followed him at a slightly slower speed. Both of them collided with Albus, knocking the principal back by several meters.

Albus, however, had sensed their presence and had created an air shield in front of him seconds before the impact.

"Hello, Jason and Issac." Albus greeted. "Should we skip the boring dialogue and directly start the fight?"

"I thought you wanted to say some words about how your plan was supreme and how you will win or something." Issac blinked in surprise.

"I have realized that doing that is worthless. The result will be same."

Albus suddenly brought his hand down in a swiping motion as a roaring sound echoed around the entire area.

"You still have that guy with you? I thought he died during the previous war." Issac groaned when he saw a dragon descending from the sky.

"He was hurt badly but I took care of him. Now let me complete my spell." Albus stepped back and continued his weird dance.

The runes from earlier slowly started connecting with each other, forming a magic circle in the process.

"Jason, we are going to stay airborne for most of the fight so make sure you have good control over your thunder. Don't try to attack Albus unless and until that dragon is defeated." Issac explained and jumped into the sky.

Jason followed him before summoning a thunderbolt made from green thunder. It was the type of thunder which he had the most control over.

The white dragon summoned by Albus was more on the western side of dragons if compared with Earth's fantasy dragons.

Two long white wings were coming out from the dragon's back while a thorny tail was coiled right below them.

His irises were split pupiled and were directly glaring at Issac. Jason felt a spark of hatred travel between the two before both of them shot forward at the same time.

Issac turned into a literal thunderbolt while the dragon manipulated the wind by using its wings.

Jason also felt a pressure pushing him and Issac back as his grandfather tried to land a direct hit on the dragon.

"You are still annoying as ever." Issac turned back into his normal form before turning off the white thunder around him.

[ You haven't changed one bit either. Even when you know that you won't be able to advance forward, you still tried to charge at me. ]

Jason wasn't surprised to hear the dragon talk using telepathy. He had already seen too many creatures with this ability to be surprised by it.

"Why are you still helping him? He is never going to let you go back to your realm even if you follow all of his orders." Issac questioned.

[ He does let me go back once a month. That's the only way for me to meet my own family without breaking the contract I have with him. ] The dragon replied in a bittersweet tone.

"I guess we have no choice except fighting then." Issac sighed as black thunder suddenly wrapped around his body. 𝗳𝒓ee𝚠𝒆𝐛n𝐨v𝚎l.co𝒎

Jason had seen black thunder before but he had no idea what was its specialty.

[ Good luck, Issac. ]

The dragon opened his wings wide and let the wind carry him higher. Jason suddenly started feeling cold as ice crystals started forming in the air.

Issac raised his right hand forward and started concentrating the black thunder. A magic circle appeared in front of the dragon as he too prepared to launch his attack.

[ Jason, stop them! This fight can be won in mere minutes without actually needing to fight. ] Hestia interrupted.

'Couldn't you have said that before this began?' Jason facepalmed before opening his mouth.

"Grandpa, dragon, don't attack! There is a way for this to be settled without fighting." Jason shouted.

"What is that?"

[ First of all, who are you? ]

"He is my grandson." Issac replied and waited for Jason to further explain what he meant.

[ Leave it to me. ]

Hestia suddenly appeared beside Jason and hovered beside him. She was currently in her oldest form which was twice the size of an average full grown wolf.

Her body was also emitting the aura of a guardian, marking her as someone from an external realm.

[ You… ] The white dragon immediately dispersed his attack and closed his wings. He lowered his head in front of Hestia and stayed in that position.

[ Your home realm is Animolis, isn't it? ] Hestia asked. The white dragon simply nodded in response.

[ Judging from what I heard, that guy ha you bound in a contract that keeps you here. It might have been mutual at first but you are stuck here now. Am I correct? ]

[ Yes, you are, my lady. ]

[ All right. Jason, I think you should be able to loosen his contract a bit. I will be able to directly teleport him to Animolis and once he is there, I will get rid of his contract once and for all. ] Hestia explained.

The white dragon's eyes began shining when he heard that he would be able to go back home once and for all.

[ How can I repay this? ]

[ When yo go back, star searching for clues about the ancient wars as well as my existence. I will be asking you to report things to me from there. ] Hestia replied.

[ I will spend more than half of my days searching for every bit of information that I can get. ] The dragon replied sincerely.

Hestia gestured for Jason to move forward as he summoned Sancus's divinity. He was now familiar with the process of breaking contracts and smoothly did the same with the white dragon.

"How long have you been here for?" Jason asked with a surprised expression when he noticed the type of contract he had.

[ I don't know. I think more than a century or two have passed since I have been on Clover. ]

"Your contract is a hereditary contract so you must have served Albus's ancestors. Tell Hestia anything important that you might have heard." Jason put the divinity back and looked at Hestia.

The guardian advanced forward and touched the dragon's forehead with her paw.

Never his life did Jason thought that he would get to see a wolf touching the forehead of a dragon. Some things really were too strange.

[ Thank you, my lady. I will fulfill the duty given to me by you. ] The dragon replied as his body turned to blue particles of light.

The particles shot straight upward where a blue portal opened for a split-second before closing.

The moment the portal closed up, Albus paused his dancing and lifted his head upwards.
